Example complaints

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

“When braking the steering wheel, brake pedal, and eventually the whole car pulses/shakes/vibrates. When I had my first maintenance, I told the dealer about it and they temporally fixed it by shaving the rotors. It comes with bremo calipers but not bremo pads, rotors, etc. I've spoken with a lot of people over social media and a lot of people have this same issue and the only thing that seems to being done is shaving and replacing the rotors/pads with the same ones that have the issue. …”

“At around 8:45 a.m. On jan. 19, 2020, I left my house, drove to the entrance of the subdivision, and turned left onto the city street. Because of the bad weather in earlier hours, I knew that the road was rather icy. So I was extra cautious and estimate my speed was around 25 MPH (posted speed limit is 40 MPH). Just about 0.1 mile from entering the city street, I saw that the street light about 100 yards ahead of me was red. I turned my signal to go into the right lane (street had become 2 lanes vs one lane at that point) while starting to gently push the brake pedal to further decelerate. …”

“I'd like to note that I've seen a large amount of 2019 Genesis G70 RWD drivers make the same complaint as myself, the VSS completely and suddenly just stopped working. No heavy or hazardous driving to report. The VSS ties into the ABS, forward collision, and blind-spot safety cameras making them all inoperable.”

NHTSA complaint #11682095, filed 2025-08

“I had 2 accidents in the same week. First one was Monday 2-20-2023. Leaving work heading home, I was at a red light. The light turned green and the car in front proceeded to go. As I hit the accelerator, my car ran into the back of a car full speed. Every attempt to stop car and was unsuccessful. I called to make appt at dealership to have car inspected. Before I could get to said appt at dealership, a very similar incident happened again 2 days later as I was pulling into parking lot of work. Pulling into parking spot, my car continued to accelerate into the building. …”
