Example complaints

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

“The interior gauge lights have gone out. Some remain on but it is very hard to see the speed, gasoline level, etc. Due to the blown lights. This presents a hazard when driving as you cannot see the instrument cluster.”
