Example complaints

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

“Since the day I have bought this car 2 1/2 years ago it will die, even while driving at 50 MPH. Recently it hasn't been starting every time. Chevy says the battery is bad. Had the battery checked at 8 other places, they all said battery was fine. He had tested the battery right after I tried to start it for two hours. When you pull the negative cable off the battery, there is still 2 amps bring drawn off the battery. With nothing on, no dime light, no radio, no air. And I've told them forever that my seatbelt warning signs don't work properly. But they can't seem to reproduce any problems.”

“Front and rear passenger and driver side airbags deployed without impact while taking a right turn, traveling approximately 10-15 MPH from one side street to another. The impact of the airbag caused the driver to veer to the right striking the curb. Contacted GM and their investigation determined it was not a manufacturing issue. They denied the claim and would not pay for repairs. Currently waiting to hear back from the insurance company.”

NHTSA complaint #11499426, filed 2022-12

“On or about May 31, 2021 the car alarm began to randomly go off on the vehicle. I took the car to the local dealership on July 20, 2021 and was advised that hood latch ajar signal showing hood open randomly was causing alarm to go off. On Aug 21, the part arrived and the hood latch was replaced. Immediately upon leaving the dealership, the radio went blank. I lost all audible sounds and alerts in the car including: seat belt alerts, key in ignition alert, blinker alert, OnStar, and radio power. I returned to the dealership with the vehicle on Sept 21, 2021 and the car was again repaired. …”
