Example complaints

“First, the top of my dashboard came unglued. Second, front suspension has a rattling noise when driving of a bumpy road. Finally, my front head tend to swing back and forth instead of raising up smoothly when turning on my car. Hopefully I don't get any more problems with my 300 being that I just got the car in december.”
NHTSA complaint #11258183, filed 2019-09, 50,000 miles“I noticed one of the headlights wasn't working while the vehicle was running & parked. The next day when I turned on my bright lights all of the lights failed, including the rear lights. This happened after dark while driving so I'm lucky to have not been involved in an accident! From then on the automatic headlights would not work. To get any lights to come on I had to turn the knob and random lights would work. The next day, only the fog lights worked with no rear lights other than when braking. 2 days later, all the lights work except the 2 headlights! Craziest thing ever!”
NHTSA complaint #11140758, filed 2018-10, 46,150 miles“Running headlights are too bright. Since the purchse of this vehicle I am constantly having other drivers flick their headlights on at me to inform me my bright lights are on, which they are not! I just had an incident last night, a driver in front of me thought I was running my bright lights on, the driver pulled off the road and got behind me with their bright lights on as a way of letting me know, this driver was approx 10 inches off of my bumper doing 50 MPH. Please offer a dimmer bulb. This issue will insue road rage from other drivers!”
