Example complaints

“The first incident with my 1995 base model Chevrolet Cavalier was when the horn stopped working, when I needed it most on a freeway when someone was about to hit me while changing lanes. The horn failed, and it had to be replaced at a cost of about $100, which I covered, since the vehicle was recently off of warranty. Months later, the trunk latch refused to work. I could not open the trunk from the rear or from the inside of the car. In late 2000, my brakes were making grinding noises. Turns out the rotors were badly warped at 50,000 miles. …”
NHTSA complaint #758889, filed 2002-03“I was traveling about 60 MPH on a highway when the panel lights came on and the car quit. I traveled about 10ft when the car came to a halt and would not go any more. After about 15 minutes, I tried turned the key and the car started. I traveled about 15 miles with the car almost stalling 2 to 3 times along the way. It started fine for the next 4 days and almost stalled another 5 times. During this time the engine light would flicker. After 5 days the car wouldn't start, at all. It had to be towed and fixed. This is related to the modulator and crank sensor. …”
NHTSA complaint #740346, filed 2001-02“The check engine light has been coming on and off. You can drive the car and it will not come on for 2 weeks and then it comes on 10 minutes after you start the car. Then it will do this for 4-5 weeks, and then nothing will happen. It has been in the shop and when it comes out the car is fine and the check engine light does not come on, and then about 1 month later it starts all over again. I am not sure if it is a short or if it is something else. It also has a tendency to come on after the car hits a bump too hard.”
