Example complaints

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

“I have owned this car less than one year and am experiencing extreme paint (dark blue color) flaking. The flaking of paint is occurring around all parts of the car including doors, above wheels, back quarter panel, trunk, and hood. The car has 80,000 miles and has been well maintained--garage kept, washed weekly, and routinely has oil change and check ups. This seems to be a problem with the manufactures paint.”

NHTSA complaint #10064220, filed 2004-03
