Example complaints

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

“A fuel pump was replaced in the car. After the repair the car ran bad and the engine light was on. Dealer advised it was only oil sludge and it was okay to drive. The car experienced a complete engine failure while driving on the interstate.”

NHTSA complaint #10246943, filed 2008-10, 64,000 miles

“Gas cap leak is detected and engine light goes on and stays on. Tried after market cap and 2 different caps from dealer and problem does not go away. Dash light has been reset numerous times, mechanic thinks the filler pipe must be bent and leaking somewhere else below the cap. Actually, just had light reset with cap sealed tight, did not touch it, and 3 days later light came on anyway. Easy solution change the law, spending hundreds of dollars to try and correct the loss of a little gas vapor while hummers drive around at 5- 10 miles a gallon is the true crime here. …”

NHTSA complaint #10193544, filed 2007-06, 32,376 miles

“We bought this car used in 2010 with 69,000. It was great for a minute and then...hoses, water pump, tensioners, a lot of tensioners, drive chain, sensor for some timing issue, thermostat, fuel pump, a bolt that sheared off the oil pan. Check engine light was on, with the coded for gas cap. No matter how many gas caps (5). It leaked oil from different places. Get one seal replaced , it would leak from somewhere else. Towed at least 6 times. Last time it was 100 degrees, it started missing, smoking. It ended up being the battery, but I was way too paranoid to drive this car any more. …”
