Example complaints

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

“I couldn't get gas into it the vehicle. I took it to my repairman. Which cost 169.38 to replace the gas filler neck. I called GM and was told if I had taken it to their authorized dealer they may have considered reimbursing me. They said if a recall comes up I can file to get my money back. Meanwhile this truck is a 2003 with only 37000 on it. Only 3 years old. I saw on your site that other people have had the same problem I had and filed a complaint. So if they hadn't paid for it to get fixed I would off had a bigger bill from a dealership.”

NHTSA complaint #10177197, filed 2006-12, 37,000 miles

“A/c blower does not work correctly after several hours on the highway. When set to high it blows about the same as if set on low. After stopping for awhile it will work correctly again. Since it is impossible to recreate on demand I have not taken to dealership.”
