Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“I have had a number of problems with this piece of crap car. First the transmission needed to be rebuilt and then problems with the brake cylinders and now I have some sort of short somewhere in the car that causes the radio to go out. I noticed the tachometer was jumping up to like 5000rpm by itself and then it would drop to zero. This happened for a while. Then all of a sudden the radio goes out and so does everything associated with that fuse. …”
