Example complaints

Brakes: “Vehicle did not stop, applied emergency brakes, I was backing out of my driveway went to apply brakes peddle went to the floor, lucky there were no vehicle passing while backing up. After further investigation found that brake lines were rusted, had to get towed to mechanic for repair at a cost of $1,000. The vehicle only has 86,000 miles, the only part on the whole vehicle that is rusted are the brake lines, I hope that this can be rectified because this was an expensive repair and could of become deadly. …”

NHTSA complaint #10033553, filed 2003-09, 23,000 miles

Body and structure: “The cable that holds the tailgate in place continually breaks. The dealer told the consumer to bring the truck in to be repaired but when he got there they told him the repair was only for the full size truck.”

NHTSA complaint #10089559, filed 2004-09, 38,000 miles

Electrical system: “Seems to be a short in electrical system. Low fuel light comes on even with a full tank. Sometimes when u open passenger door the fuel guage goes back to full and the light goes out. The throttle seems to stick all the time I run 89 octane fuel in it and run fuel sytem cleaner thru it also but nothing seems to help. It seems to have a catch in the pedalwhen u first push on it. Which is dangerous when the roads are wet or icy. Because u have to mash the pedal so hard. Causing over acceleration. Also the switches for the four wheel drive go out when u travel over 70 miles without stopping. Dt”
