Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“We've had 4 instances of engine power reduced and check engine light, with no prior warning of issue on the dash display. I believe this is due to an issue with the diesel particulate filter soot load tracking. The first 3 occurred on rural highway and the 4th on a local highway at speed. The power reduction is immediate and severe enough that the vehicle rapidly loses speed and cannot keep up with traffic. Had traffic been close or with a trailer, there would be risk of being rear ended due to the sudden loss of speed. …”
