“I washed my car for the first time and that is when I noticed my cars frame is rusted out. There is a big hole in the middle of my frame that is near the motor. I have to drive it and it sounds like it's going to break in half. It is worst when I hit a bump in the road, like speed bumps. My car has 106k miles the body has little to no rust. I've owned it only a few months.”
NHTSA complaint #11277824, filed 2019-11, 106,000 miles“Struts and ball joints have been replaced 5 times since owning this car the past 5 years. Currently being repaired after subframe broke while I was driving. Did some research and apparently this is a huge issue. Not only while I was driving when it broke, I had my kids with me. While making a left hand turn onto a busy street I heard a loud 'snap' and lost all control of my car.”
NHTSA complaint #11130608, filed 2018-09, 145,000 miles“The electronic throttle control went out on me as I was entering the freeway. The etc is basically the car losing all power but the vehicle does not shut off only the gas peddle loses all power. It was very scary when your litteraly carrying your entire family including your doggy.”
NHTSA complaint #11374360, filed 2020-11, 150,000 miles“According to my mechsnic ,the sway bar has rotted off and this has been a problem for this model due to where the air conditioning unit drains there has been a warranty extension I've been told when we turn the wheel left or right it feels like the the car is coming apart the subframe needs to be replaced .”
NHTSA complaint #11162006, filed 2018-12, 72,700 miles“The electronic control sensor keeps flashing and I keep losing power to my car. It starts shaking and making noises like it's about to stall. I have stalled several times. This is very concerning as I have kids and have to travel roads where there are very few spots to pull over safely whether it's because of traffic or on a mnt with a dropoff. I am a single parent and help is not always close.”
