Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“My catalytic convertor is bad, and I'm only at 85,286 miles. I can't believe this part is already bad on a 2 year old car. This happened when I was driving, and my check engine light came on. Nothing specific happened that should cause this issue. Also, my struts are leaking. I didn't even know this until I had my car checked at the dealership. Why are these parts failing already?”
NHTSA complaint #11060653, filed 2018-01, 84,985 miles“I have had my car right at 3 months and it just shuts off with no warning. I have children in this car going down the interstate and it just shuts off. There is no warning signs and no way to get it off the side of the road. I'm just dead in the water hoping no one will rear end us. It has been in the shop 2 times and they have it a day and say shows nothing and send it back to me. It is very hard to get it into the shop and they act like I'm the problem cause they can't find it. It's my only car and I keep telling them what is going on and they say juat keep driving it. …”
NHTSA complaint #10721321, filed 2015-05, 500 miles“This vehicle constantly shakes at about the 50 MPH. Engine light starts to come on and there is a hesitation to accelerate. This is extremely dangerous and I read several others issues with the misfire. Something needs to be done before others are hurts... Very serious issue”
NHTSA complaint #11413881, filed 2021-04, 87,520 miles“After driving in about 70 degree sunny day for about 45 min the traction control light and ABS light dinged on then after pressing the accelerator the vehicle chuffed and completely died in the middle of a busy interction. Turn the vehicle off for about 10 min and continued driving another 45 min without a problem. This has happened on several occasions at various speeds from a stop to about 70 MPH.”
NHTSA complaint #11203469, filed 2019-04, 30,000 miles“When accelerating it has a hesitation like the fuel supply shuts off briefly or it is misfiring or something that is causing me to not be able to accelerate up to speed when taking off or during driving. It has happened multiple times over the past several months.”
