Example complaints

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

“The Daewoo Nubira 2001 should be recalled to replace lower control arms which are attached to the suspension. I feel the control arms' inadequacies are catastrophes waiting to happen. The control arms are faulty and could cause steering failure. This is a part that is replaced on this car model too often. What happens if someone does not have $700 to pay for repair? I ask this because when I drive the Daewoo it is increasing difficult to hold it on the road due to the front end rack and pinion steering jerking left and right. …”
