Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“While driving on the highway at approximately 60MPH, both display screens went completely blank. The A/C stopped working and radio speakers also stopped working. After about 30 seconds, the system had reset and came back on as if it was the start up sequence. I could not tell if it affected steering/braking since I was on a relatively straight road and light traffic but it was highly disconcerting that all speed/vehicle information went blank. If this had happened in denser traffic and the steering/brakes also affected, this could have caused a crash. …”
NHTSA complaint #11636969, filed 2025-01“The turn signal stalk, when self-canceling from a right turn, will drop too hard, and will turn on the left turn signal after the turn, causing confusion to not only the vehicle operator, but other drivers on the road. This has happened on multiple occasions.”
NHTSA complaint #11633804, filed 2025-01“When driving in winter, during a snowstorm, in the dark, the recessed headlights fill with snow. This makes the light dim because the LED lights don’t get hot and melt the snow. You have to pull over and clean them manually.”
NHTSA complaint #11637969, filed 2025-01“The dashboard glare is very noticeable and makes it difficult to see out of. After the right turn signal disengages it will sometimes initiate the left turn signal for 3 clicks. Both are saftey flaws”
NHTSA complaint #11653570, filed 2025-04“- Auto light not functioning correctly - Glare of the dashboard in the windshield - Emergency brakes strikes even when there isn't any obstacles on the way ( middle of the road or even Parkinglot )”
