Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Sometimes when going over a bump breaks make a grinding noise. Sometimes I do not have to go over a bump. Abs and traction control lights come on daily and for most of the day. Had a shop check the breaks and they said they are fine. At least they are not worn down. What is causing this noise? It is kind of scary. This has been happening for almost a year but this complaint is dated for today aug 8 2018. When the lights first starting coming on my car acting like I was tapping the breaks 4 or 5 times but that part stopped a few months ago.”
NHTSA complaint #11118560, filed 2018-08, 85,000 miles“I had a low impact crash after I applied my brakes at approximately 2-300 feet before the vehicle in front of me. My tires are good and there were no indicator lights on my dashboard prior to the crash. I slid approximately 100 feet into a car stopped on the highway, because of a prior accident in my lane. When I began applying the brakes, I was traveling 60 MPH. I traveled another 4-5 seconds into the back of a vehicle. No airbags deployed. I was unable to stop the car! I think something malfunctioned. …”
NHTSA complaint #10783540, filed 2015-10, 37,000 miles“When driving or not driving sun roof will not go close I have to push button a few times or wait a few minutes, check engine light will come on when starting car or driving down the road, when braking popping sound comes from left side of car and a little sliding, paint peeling off back bumper. These problems have been happening for 2 years now. Car at repair shop now for brakes.”
NHTSA complaint #10937521, filed 2016-12, 8,000 miles“Loud clunking noise when applying brakes to come to a stop and when going over bumps in road/railroad tracks. It has been going on for months. I put todays date as the incident date because it happens daily”
NHTSA complaint #10851754, filed 2016-03, 15,000 miles“This was a rental car. When starting to brake, my shoe caught on the foot well which interfered with my braking. This happened multiple times. There was an extra snow mat installed by the rental company, which I removed. After that it only happened once. The foot well is definitely not designed to allow proper transfer of a foot from accelerator to brake especially for bigger sized feet. The pedals on the model I was driving are not adjustable. I have seen one other similar complaint on the internet, that user removed the floor mat to resolve the problem.”
