Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“We have had all the door handles break, causing the passengers to be unable to open or close their doors. The rear back hatch has broken three times at an approximate cost of $150 for each repair. After reading the tom and ray article in the arizona republic on jan. 1, 2000, I beleive this is a very common problem that can cause a safety hazard.”
NHTSA complaint #716717, filed 2000-01“When opening the door on the driver's side door handle fell down into the door frame, making it impossible to open the door from the inside or the outside. Door handle was replaced by personal mechanic at owner's expense.”
NHTSA complaint #854569, filed 2000-01“The rod that is on the inside of the door handle broke on the passenger's side door, causing outside door handles not to operate properly, having to get it on the opposite side. Currently, the driver's side handles have done the same thing.”
