Example complaints

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

“I was driving south down highway i5 and my sunroof exploded and shattered. Nothing hit me and there was no rock or foreign objects. It sounded like a gunshot or explosion. It occurred yesterday 10/19/2017 around 3:25 pm or so. I was not physically harmed, just frightened and glad my kids were not in the car. The break is outward not inward so you know it didn't come from a falling object.”

“Accelerator stuck when I accelerated to merge in traffic on freeway. I pressed on brakes to slow the vehicle. After I arrived at my destination I placed vehicle in park and slowly pushed on accelerator. I heard a click as the accelerator stuck and the engine revved.”

“As I was driving down a main route with high traffic travelling approximately 35 MPH the car felt as if someone stepped on the brakes twice. The car slowed down abruptly almost to a stop. I pulled over to the side of the road and shut off the vehicle. I was 1/2 mile from my house so I decided to proceed home. I started up the car and slowly drove down the road. Within minutes the brakes automatically applied themselves again slowing the vehicle dramatically. I proceeded to drive to my garage and called the dealership in the morning. …”

“The engine fan would come on after driving the car for a couple days, finally while driving the car the engine light came on and the car started running on reduced power and the car overheated. A leak was found in a hose and was replaced but yet the car still continues to overheat rapidly.”
