Example complaints

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

“As I was turning a corner, my steering wheel completely locked up on me. I was stuck in the middle of the street trying to get my car to turn into our driveway. Thankfully, I was able to alert incoming traffic through my horn that I was there and stuck. This could’ve been a near death experience and I am uncomfortable driving any Acuras at this time.”

NHTSA complaint #11658791, filed 2025-05
