Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Noticed that my dash board high beam for my headlights was staying on. Took to wheel works and they told me its the wiring harness for my headlights. They told me it is melting and need to take to the dealer. I bought my car brand new and paid cash for it with extras added on to it. I have had multiple problems with this car and I get no help. I need to know if this has been on a recall. I am on a very limited income and cannot afford this to come out of my pocket.”
