Example complaints

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

“At any given time, one of my three brake lights is not working. There does not seem to be any reason as the same light that was previously not working will work while a different one will be out without any work being done on the car to try to remedy the problem. Some times, only one light is working or none of them are working. This is an ongoing problem. In addition, the transmission leaks fluid on a regular basis. I have had my personal mechanic to refill the transmission at least twice after less than 3,000 miles and had hoses checked to make sure there were no apparent leaks. …”
