Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I called the dealership (katherine cole who sold us the run flat tires), tweeted GM. No one at this point has been the least bit interested in what I had I to say. After my crash, on august 11, 2014, I have found several other ATS owners that experience the same exact issue..my daughter and I suffered terrible injuries, crash and totaled my car. I also am finding that there maybe a tire issue because of fast wear after only 7,000 miles. What, is GM or the tire manufacture or these safety org. Waiting for someone to die? …”
NHTSA complaint #10744876, filed 2015-07, 7,500 miles“While driving 70 MPH on an interstate; drove into rough median going at a downhill angle. Hit two culverts (made of steel and concrete), one of which sent the car airborne. The car landed into oncoming interstate traffic and did a 180 turn before coming to a rest. The strut came up through the hood of the car, and the front end of the car was torn up very badly, as was the rear bumper. The front two tires were pointing in different directions. The car was later declared a total loss. The airbags did not deploy, nor did the onstar service respond (paid monthly fees for over 4 years).”
NHTSA complaint #11073918, filed 2018-02, 30,000 miles“My airbag system light has been on now for over two years. My exact vehicle the prior year and after has had a recalled and mine has been missed. GMC wants 2000.00 to replace my airbag situation and my car only has 66000 miles on it for god sakes. Please have my model vin on recall list so my passengers will be safe. This is the second time I have emailed you and no response was given yet. Please recall my airbags.”
