Example complaints

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

“I would formally like to report a major safety concern I have regarding my new 2011 Bmw 335is convertible. From a standstill without modifying any of the default configurations on the car, flooring the gas pedal, the car lurches forward (as expected) and then power completely cuts out for a second and then will continue on its way. My guess is the dsc is kicking in causing power to be reduced and then re-established. My concern is that a brand new car should be able to be floored without this happening. …”
