Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Back passenger door lock is stuck in the locked position. Nothing will unlock it. Dangerous for the passengers in the back, they can't get out on that side.”
NHTSA complaint #11203813, filed 2019-04, 76,200 miles“While driving airbag light came on with interior lights flicking on/off while driving on every occasion for last 1-2 months. Also while driving would say right rear sliding door was open with lights on while driving. Air bag light has since gone off and came back on/off but interior lights remain on at times while driving. Sometimes rear sliding door sounds like it's trying to latch. Local garage unable to find anything wrong it. I believe there is a electrical shortage that started with airbags and from reading there is a takata recall on other vehicles causing a circuit shortage like this.”
