Example complaints

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

“Please investigate! Approx. 3 days ago I was coming to a stop sign in a residential area & applied brakes. Speed limit is 25, but I was going slower, just to the corner past my home. Not only did brakes not work- the car began to accelerate on its own to about 35-40 MPH- no gas applied. Tried pumping brakes, shifting the car into neutral, reverse, park- all while at an unexpected accelerated speed. I plowed into a residential yard which had a small hill thinking maybe I could stop the car that way. That didn't work. I swerved back into the street; car still revving and moving forward. …”

NHTSA complaint #11337721, filed 2020-07, 137,500 miles

“The problem involves the vehicle's traction control system. The car intermittently after coming to a complete stop and turning into oncoming traffic will lose all acceleration power for two to three seconds. During these two to three seconds, their is a hopeless feeling as you quickly look into your rear view mirror and pray that the car behind is slowing down or swerving into the left lane to avoid a collision. This happens on dry and clean pavement without any legitimate reason. After rolling slowly without power the accelerator will suddenly engage.”
