Example complaints

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

“Like thousands of other people (and a previous Chevrolet of mine), my dash board has spontaneously cracked over night in cold weather near the passenger airbag. My vehicle is only 3 years old and this should be replaced under warranty and/or a safety recall. Due to it being outside its 36k warranty, GM will not repair it.”
