Example complaints

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

“I have had several issues on my new 2020 Cascadia. The power steering box had an external leak which resulted in a steering whine. The dealer replaced the steering box with only 24,000 miles on the truck. I also had a road call involving a check engine and stop engine light which resulted in a replacement of a control unit and temperature sensor. I am still trying to get reimbursed for this repair since the truck is still under warranty. There has also been a def issue causing a loss of power”

NHTSA complaint #11309211, filed 2020-02
