Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“When vehicle is placed in park the safety lock will not allow the key to turn to the off position and be removed. The vehicle will not turn off any further than the accessory position. Sometimes after turning the steering wheel back and forth while working the ignition the key will release. If this does not work after a minute or so, sometimes you can start the truck and immediately turn it all the way off and get the key to release. If all of that fails the last option is to disconnect the battery. …”
NHTSA complaint #11660532, filed 2025-05“Vehicle purchased new in November of 2021 and driven approximately 6,000 miles. Under windy conditions, particularly at highway speeds, the truck is nearly impossible to drive straight down the road and keep under control. It feels as if you're driving on ice and takes a lot of effort to get back under control. In addition, wind blasts from semi-trucks blow the truck all over the road. Other wind blasts such as those experienced when passing under an overpass or a clearing of woods or hilly terrain that allows for gusts of cross winds result in an equally frightening experience. …”
NHTSA complaint #11466390, filed 2022-05“Steering wheel kept slowly moving to right about 20 degrees to right to drive straight. This caused the truck to disable electronic stability control due to excessive steering angle. Brought to dealer for service they stated nothing was loose on the vehicle and that they could not align it until they received some adapters for their alignment machine. I took the vehicle home and found that the left tie rod jam nut had not been tightened during manufacture which allowed the alignment to come out of adjustment. These need to be checked on this model truck and trucks need alignment checks.”
