Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“At all times, including while driving at highway speeds, the accelerator pedal makes a squeaking sound which is not only irritation, but a sign of some sort of problem with the accelerator pedal itself. Took it into dealership under warranty still and they claim that this defect is normal simply because they found the same condition on all other similar vehicles that they checked. I suggest that all of these vehicle suffer the same defect. This is a telltale sign of a problem, what if the pedal were to become stuck when depressed? Dealership said they are unable to lubricate it or modify it. …”
