Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Timing chain has been loosened and possibly ready to break. Service bulletin #11340c was issued and GM/Cadillac never contacted me for the special coverage repair. They are now refusing to assist me. While driving vehicle there was burning rubber smell and car hesitated, failed to accelerate while driving on a busy county road in danville indiana”
NHTSA complaint #11415206, filed 2021-05, 130,000 miles“Takata inflators. I have a loud cracking noise in several places behind the dash. Sometimes it happens when the car is still but mostly while driving on interstates. The loudest cracking noise is in the center of the dash. With the takata airbag recall I am afraid that this could be part of that. The car only has 11,000miles on it but the cracking has occurred since the car was new.”
NHTSA complaint #10949661, filed 2017-02, 11,000 miles“My oil keeps running low every 2 months and makes a loud clicking sound. Was told that my oil is burning and that they don't know why. Vehicle is in motion when it starts to jerk and starts kicking back and make knocking noise in the engine”
NHTSA complaint #11415343, filed 2021-05, 179,900 miles“Rear differential seal leaking Midas told me when I had the oil changed right after I got the car exactly one year and one day ago today and there is like a weird noise when I drive but if I turn the heat or air in it stops”
NHTSA complaint #11421361, filed 2021-06“I was giving a recall paper in the mail , so I took my car to the address listed on the reform. The dealership didn't do the recall. The reason they decided not to do it was because I didn't have the correct keys and was told ' you car doesn't need it, it doesn't have that problem unless you have the original key'. I tried contacting the manufacturer to confirm this clam but they left me on hold. I have the impression they didn't want to do the service for free.I just want to know weather my car is safe to drive.”
