Example complaints

“2/15/2020 as I was leaving work at 10:08a.m as soon as I pulled out of parking lot and started to go my car shut down. I was going probably 23 MPH: the steering wheel locked, pedal went to the floor, everything cut off. Thank god I was able to put it in park. I was blessed to not be in heavy traffic and could coast to the curb as I fought with the steering wheel to get out of the street. I tried several times to start it and it wouldn't, I got nothing, the car was completely dead. The keys wouldn't come out but I figured it out. …”

“On multiple occasions my cars electrical system will randomly fade in and out and shut down while driving. This is most evident in the power steering, radio controls and air conditioning. I have tested and replaced both the battery in the alternator. I have also brought the car into the dealership so they could run a diagnostics. Nothing can be identified as a central problem, but the issue still continues. It is very dangerous as I loose my power steering while turning. This happens on short trips and long trips and many times while on the freeway at high speeds.”

“Noticed car jerking and losing power while goin uphill. Going uphill slowed down to only go about 25mph. Came to not being able to drive forward at all only in reverse. Had car tested at 2 different auto places and was given possible codes of it being the transmission module. Unfortunately up to now haven't been able to afford to repair.”

“From a stop, start to accelerate slowly into a right turn the steering wheel (or front right wheel) starts to vibrate or wobble. Vehicle now has 2000 miles and the problem is ongoing. The vibration can be felt in the drivers seat.”

NHTSA complaint #10706504, filed 2015-04, 500 miles

“From a stop start to accelerate into right turn right front wheel starts to wobble and tremors is felt in steering wheel. Wobble not felt in quick acceleration only in gradual acceleration. It has become progressively worse over the last 5000 miles. Took it to GM dealer. Say they could not feel problem. Took technician for a ride and duplicated problem several times. Technician s says he feels tremor does not know what is causing problem. The problem is definitely coming from right cv axle when power is initially applied to right wheel. …”
