Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“For more than 8 months my Acura Legend (1994) four door sedan has been inaudible or not working. The srs light has been on for about 8 months I've been advised that the coil reel is out and that it is now in a condition that will prevent the horn from sounding when needed or at all. I've also been told that the drivers airbag and possibly the passenger air bag will not employ should an accident occur. This is not safe and I'm very surprised that the cost of a coil reel costs $687 from the honda dealer in pensacola, florida. …”

NHTSA complaint #10170331, filed 2006-10

“When vehicle was involved in a rear end crash, the driver's seat belt did not restrain the driver, causing driver to hit head on steering wheel. On jan 28, 1999, vehicle was involved in a rear end crash traveling about 32 MPH, and there was no deployment of the driver's side air bag. The seat belt did not restrain driver at this time, causing major injuries to drivers face. The vehicle has been repaired by the dealership.”
