Example complaints

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

“The handle of the left-hand (driver) door has stopped opening the door. The plastic fixture where it should engage for the door to open does not function. In addition, the window stopped rolling up at the same time. This exact defect has happened to our 2002 chevy prism. The plastic piece around the door handle of the same driver's side has cracked and no longer can engage to work. It is a safety issue when you can not open the door!”
