Example complaints

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

“There are 54,000 miles on the car. I bought the car end of november when there were only 49,000 miles on it. The paint is peeling very badly on the front bumper. I inquired about a repaint and it was going to be well over $5,800. I had to put 3 transmissions in the car (in about end of february, again in about 3 weeks another one had to be put in) I only paid about $1,100.00 for the transmission and the others were covered by the mechanics warranty. The transmission that was in there was fried when they sold it to me. A rim had to be replaced because it was bent which costed $45.00. …”
