Example complaints

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

“Suffered sudden engine stall in an expressway with no apparent explanation or reason last month. This was the second time this occurred. The first time was approximately several months earlier and after limping to a safe place and turning the motor off, resting for a while, it restarted. I had the vehicle serviced during its annual oil change and the dealer informed that the vehicle suffered an engine misfire in two pistons, allegedly due to two faulty coils. About a month later I suffered the second incident in an expressway but in heavier traffic. …”
