Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Vehicle vibrates badly especially at highway speeds. Vibration is so bad, the vehicle rocks side-to-side while driving. Driving at highway turnpike speed of 75mph, vehicle engine began to surge and then completely shut down. Oil pressure gauge indicated low oil pressure and vehicle would not start. Vehicle still had electrical function but engine no longer would turn over. Checked engine oil level and had engine oil. Called highway patrol and had to have the vehicle towed.”
