Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I had 95 Geo Metro, the day I wrecked it was raining. I was coming upon a curve, and I hit my brakes. It had anti lock brakes. They locked up, and the car started spinning around. I couldn't get control of the vehicle, and the car had turned on its top in a covert. My 15 year old daughter was in with me, and neither air bag had came out like it was suppose to. The whole front grill came to rest across the road from where the car was. I lost the use of the vehicle, because it could not be fixed. The top was pushed in, the windshield was cracked, and the front grill was off. …”

Consumer has contacted the dealer, dealer has replaced the front calipers. Problem still occurs.”
