Example complaints

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

“I am a mechanic. I have 2cars doing the same thing. One is my own car.when this car gets hot if the transmission is in park and you rev it up the car will go to neutral and want to go forward. Brought it to the dealer and they don't know what's wrong with it. No one seems to have heard of this problem and I have two cars doing this. It is dangerous since it doesn't hold park unless you shut the car off. I am a member of atra and they don't know what's wrong either.”
