Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I was driving on freeway in rain, rear end of truck kicked out sideways due to hydroplane, I hit the cement median in the front of truck, spun around and the back end also hit median. I have $25,000 in damage and the frame is bent in 3 locations, however airbags didn't deploy. 1) Airbags didn't deploy, and yes available for inspection. 2) I think airbags should have gone off, all 4 of us hit our heads on something. 3) No, I mentioned it to them, but nothing has been done. 4) No inspection has been completed. 5) No, there were no warning lights or messages prior to the failure.”
NHTSA complaint #11674207, filed 2025-07“The vehicle was turned off. The airbags deployed. If someone were in the vehicle, they could have been seriously injured. It is currently at the GMC dealer, where they are refusing to take responsibility. No warning lamps or messages were present.”
