Example complaints

“Three weeks ago, I started hearing a noise from the back left tire. Two days ago the esp and traction light went on as well as the brake fluid light. Everything just started hitting at the same time. I think the car is rigged to have everything go bad once the warranty period is up. Would like to know if this is covered since so many people are having problems with it. I can't afford to fix it but this is my only means of transportation.”
NHTSA complaint #10672050, filed 2015-01, 69,900 miles“The outer rim of the wheel broke off from the inner 'star' of the wheel leaving the inner part of the rim and the lug nuts attached to the car. The tire and outer rim detached from the car causing damage to the car's body. The car fell to the pavement when the outer rim broke away causing body damage to the front end of the car. This occurred around 7:30pm on 2/29/2016. The pavement was dry, clear and free of debris.”
