Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The vehicle is stationary as I was trying to check the engine oil and I pulled the hood latch inside the car and the hood never popped or released and I was not able to get the hood open to check on the engine oil”
NHTSA complaint #11311859, filed 2020-02, 47,539 miles“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. …”
NHTSA complaint #11444834, filed 2021-12“Manufacturer has not issued a remedy for the recall yet. The secondary hood latch striker is getting more and more corroded (especially in Michigans wet climate) causing more vigorous jiggling. No longer feels safe to go over 40mph without the risk of the hood coming up and hitting the windshield.”
