Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“When it rains or you drive through a puddle, the tensioner belt comes off. This makes steering almost impossible. If you do manage to control the vehicle & drive to a safe spot to stop you risk burning up the engine due to lack of cooling. The above is especially dangerous when driving on a highway.”
