Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I've had a few recalls on the truck. Several listed wiring. They've all been 'corrected' or checked by a dealer. My truck caught fire and burned all the electrical under the hood today. Less than a month since the 'electrical' recall was supposedly repaired. It was stopped but running at a gas station after a short 3 minute drive.”
NHTSA complaint #11110062, filed 2018-07, 64,500 miles“While parked in our driveway with the vehicle off, my wife opened the rear liftgate using the exterior latch handle. The liftgate raised to the open position automatically, but then slammed shut without warning. When the pneumatic strut that holds the liftgate open failed, the entire weight of the liftgate landed on my wife's head, who was reaching into the trunk to remove its contents.”
NHTSA complaint #11047773, filed 2017-11, 94,000 miles“Rattling noise from dashboard on driver's side noted earlier, but brought to service attendant's attention on the given date. Was told the sound/noise could not be duplicated, but if I could bring in video with sound they would be able to determine issue. I made an appointment for 07/12/14 to have this and other issues addressed. When I showed up for my appointment, I was told the electricity had been out the day before and they were backed up with customers (at 8:05 am) and only accepting oil changes. …”
NHTSA complaint #10619068, filed 2014-08, 24,281 miles“The passenger side wheel well molding detached and flew off while driving. The truck was returned to the dealer for service after waiting for 2 hours I was advised the part would need to be ordered and would be covered under warranty. I returned to the dealer when the part was in, told the part was at another shop and I would have to wait until it was picked up. Waited for an additional 2 hours and was told by a service adviser that the part was damaged and they would need to order another one, again I was advised that the part would be covered. …”
