Example complaints
One per model year, chosen for length and detail. Personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
2010: “Takata recall. No open recalls on my vehicle. Prior recall work on air bags was completed in dec 2016. Currently with no one in the passenger seat the air bag light for passenger air bag activation is off, meaning the air bag is active. I've seen it light up as off with a passenger in the passenger seat.”
NHTSA complaint #11063695, filed 2018-01, 73,500 miles2024: “The shark fin antenna on the top of the car came off while driving on the highway. I've had no prior issues with it being loose nor did I notice any issues with it being loose when I wash the car. I did not notice it came off until I returned home. The fact that normal highway speeds could cause it to dethatch puts other drivers at risk from the flying debris.”
