Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“When I get into my car the steering wheel is locked and I can't get it unlocked unless I turn on and off my caution lights or move the button back and forth on the console that has an a on one end and a m on the other. As soon as I get out of the car it locks and won't move unless I do that and I haven't figured out why this is happening. It just started within the last week. I need to know if this will cause me to have an accident and if I need to let the car sit until I get it fixed?”
