Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I started my car and the alert came up service suspension. I carried it to the dealer and of course the light had gone out by then. I tried restarting to see what would happen. The service guy said he had not heard of that happening. About 2 weeks later it happens again, went back to the dealer same situation. The alert still comes on from time to time. It has not caused any accidents or any damage as far as I know.”
NHTSA complaint #10722323, filed 2015-05, 26,250 miles“I was driving on a two-lane country road. To avoid a dead animal in the road (possibly woodchuck), I swerved hard left at which time the vehicle began to shake violently, so much so I thought it would roll over. The car bounces at every little bump, pulls sharply right when braking, wobbles at the slightest excuse, and is very unstable. There is a kerplunk noise at the smallest road indentation (which may be because an odd tire was put on the car). It is very hard to see vehicles passing on the right because of the large headrests, huge mirror and post between doors. Not a safe car! …”
NHTSA complaint #10521155, filed 2013-06, 55,430 miles“I have taken my car to several shops in regards to my headlight and no one can figure it out. One headlight in out which are my low beams. The entire car has been rewired and still doesn't work. It pops on and off when it wants to but still the low beam headlight does not work.”
NHTSA complaint #11055434, filed 2017-12“Went to get my car serviced because I kept hearing a whirring noise during acceleration in the rear of my vehicle. Both rear hub assemblies went, absolutely ridiculous expense for a 2010 Buick Lacrosse at the stealership for $850.00, wow!! Crazy because my friend has the same exact car and has the same exact issue. Shouldn't this be on recall already?? Would like a response....”
