Example complaints

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

“This morning I was driving to work. Stabiltrak error message came on my hud. Cluster and dashboard lights flashed off. Stopped. Everything flashed back on and radio presets were all gone. Not sure if this will continue to keep happening or if it is a frozen sensor, since it has been below 32 degrees here.”

“Al these lights came on out of no where one cold day. Steering assist, ABS, break. Also service trailer brake, service stabilitrak. I went online there are so many people with the exact issue. Recall your mistake and fix your problem. Don't screw the customer. I locked up my brakes because the car in front of me and I almost hit them due to my ABS not working I fish tailed sideways. It's a matter of time before someone is hurt. It is a big issue many people have spoke about. …”
