Example complaints

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

“Yesterday morning, while driving north on I-35 to work, there was a loud pop from directly above my windshield. This scared me to death! The sound was so frightening that I ducked and for a moment, I thought I had been involved in a wreck but quickly noticed nothing out of the ordinary had occurred. Typically, traffic is very heavy, only moving about 20mph. However, on this particular morning, traffic was somewhat lighter and moving about 40mph. I had clear visibility across the front window and could tell that nothing had flown in my direction. …”

I may get all three warnings appear on one 45 mile trip or I may not get any.sometimes it's the same one 3,4 or even 5 times.. 2nd mmi screen randomly does not come on and having issues after I hang up the phone the radio will not come back on and will continue to show phone in use. …”
