“I put in a complaint back in 2019 about using to much oil and my car acting funny. Now the car will jump/jerk when you put on the gas and the air bag light comes on and the engine light. I took it to have it fixed last year at a sullivan's garage and he can not find anything wrong. He went a head and changed the oil. And mind you I just had it changed aweek before. And he said I was already half a quart low. My car still will start jerking/jumping and stop. Ill have to turn the key off and take out and put the key back in and start the car. …”

“The passenger curtain air bags in the front and back seat exploded with no impact to the vehicle or an other vehicles involved in this incident.

I was driving normal, going straight and the air bags went off and the grab handle from the front seat hit me in the head when the air bag exploded and I passed out when I hit my head from the impact of the handle hitting me causing me to hit my head on my driver side window. I could have crashed and hurt myself and others from this incident. …”

“My son was involved in an accident november 06, 2013. My son was exiting when he stated he felt tire fell, his car flipped front to end 3x, and then hitting a pole, this causing him to be ejected 100 feet and landing on a grassy median. My son was pronounced dead at the scene, but paramedics were able to revive him. My son was on life support and had to go through a lot and is now okay...
