Example complaints

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

“The driver's side door handle is coming off. My car was in my garage when on friday, september 30, I opened the door and the handle pulled away from the door. I could not open the door! I had to enter the car through the passenger's side in order to open the driver's side door. I then pushed the driver's side door handle back into place and used shipping tape to keep it in place until I could get it repaired. …”

“Since I haven't been keeping my car in a garage...water has leaked into my trunk and has rusted the spare tire and all the parts to change the tire. Water had filled up the holding place for spare tire. I don't use my trunk that much and by the time I saw it mildew smell throughout the car. Been busting my butt trying to clean it up. I think I have figured out that the water has been getting through the back light fixtures down into the trunk.”

“I was driving down the highway and for no apparent reason, my sunroof exploded and shattered into tiny pieces. The noise was like a gunshot and glass came into the car because the visor was open at the time. I did not lose control of the car, but the noise did cause me to be distracted and disoriented for a short time. If there had been more traffic, it might have been a lot worse. I can not attribute the event to any weather condition or vehicle use condition.”

NHTSA complaint #10542630, filed 2013-09, 39,560 miles

“I rarely use my rear door, but both doors had the lock assembly go bad. This wouldn't allow me to get in or out of the car. My front drivers side door lock assembly failed as well. Total cost for the 3 doors to be repaired was almost 1000.00.”
