Example complaints

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

“I drive a 2005 3500 chevy express van that has a driver's side mirror that moves while driving at highway speeds. I took the van to the local dealer who stated they ordered and replaced the mirror. After picking up the van I noticed it was no different. I took it back and they told me there was nothing they could do. I feel this is a safety issue because at highway speeds it is difficult to see vehicles coming up beside me. I would like help in getting the problem solved.”

NHTSA complaint #10159403, filed 2006-06
