Example complaints

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

“Door handle on right rear dutch door of our 2000 Astro van broke suddenly when trying to open door. While the dutch door feature is operationally very handy, the door design always had a flimsy feel to it - so we always used great care when opening and closing. After it broke, we found the NHTSA #634576 with similar complaints, so felt obligated to add to your list.”
