Example complaints

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

“Driving on the interstate the car suddenly started losing speed and it would not let me accelerate. I was able to make it to the shoulder. Once I got to the shoulder the car idled for a few seconds before the engine completely shut off. I was able to start the car again and drive about another mile and the same thing happened. We were about 1 mile from a GM car dealership and we managed to get the car to the dealership, but it stalled 3 times on the way (once on a 2 lane bridge). …”
