Example complaints

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

“Pulled out of a parking lot onto a busy street locally, car lost power and the orange wrench light came on. Would not go, all the car did was jerk and sputter. Engine did not shut off but would only coast/roll into the middle lane and managed to coast/roll into another business parking lot next door to where I pulled out from and once parked, I turned ignition off and back on. Wrench light went out and car started. …”

“Pulled into a parking stop at the grocery store; went to put my car in park, shifter went into park, on the dash it was saying I was in reverse. The car was definitely in reverse. Was not able to push in the shifter button to change gears or move the shifter at all. You were able to manually change the gears within the engine, but not with the shifter.”
