Example complaints

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

“The brakes are not good. You have to pump the brake pedal to get them to work. I just had to stop to prevent hitting someone in the rear. I did not have time to pump brake. I literally had to take it to the floor to stop. This was reported to you previously and we never heard a thing!,”
