Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The top of the clutch pedal assembly when depressed and released rubs the wiring harness to the brake switch, neutral safety switch and others shorting out the brake lights and making the cruise control inoperable. It works for a while but then it blows the fuse again and someone has to stop me and tell me my brake lights don't work. The dealer has replaced one of the wires for the brake switch which is in that same wiring harness and says the problem is fixed but sooner or later it will rub the rest of the wires bare too. …”
