Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Traveling on rte 495 and experienced two very short episodes where power was lost then quickly ( 1-2 seconds) restored. During deceleration when the throttle was released back to neutral the engine stalled. Successful restarts could only be maintained with significant turning of the throttle. Shortly after the throttle froze and could not be moved either way. Had this happened in heavy traffic or while cornering it may have very well resulted in a crash and injury or death.”
