Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I bought the vehicle for my son. On september 13, the power steering failed on a turn on a city street, and he was unable to control the vehicle and hit a parked car on the opposite side of the street. The insurance company paid for a portion of our vehicle expense, but not the entire note which included taxes, license, fees, extended warranty and interest.”
NHTSA complaint #11394658, filed 2021-02, 140,000 miles“Truck slid into a ditch. While driving out in 4-wheel drive, all four side airbags deployed. The truck was not in danger of rolling over. I was driving only 1-3 MPH, and the truck was leaning, but not anywhere near tipping. After airbag deployment, I finished getting out of the ditch and returned home while dealing with limited visibility (1-1/2 miles).”
NHTSA complaint #11383165, filed 2020-12, 47,800 miles“During an out of town trip, my electric glitch, from the dashboard to the navigation as if were going to shut down! Now I'm in a parking lot and the dash is telling me to service the airbag.”
NHTSA complaint #11269517, filed 2019-10, 158,974 miles“Three service calls to fix warning light check air bag. One to replace passenger side above door air bag two to fix the airbag connecter on two driver side air bags. This started in october 2015 and last one was may 2016. Is this a issue with this vehicle? Why so many airbag problems in a short period of time.”
