Example complaints

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

“The 2005 Gmc Canyon pick-up and similar vehicles made by this manufacturer lack keyed access locks on the passenger-side doors. In the event of an emergency, because there is no practical way to readily access the vehicle from the passenger-side, there is the potential that the vehicle owner or passengers would be exposed to undue harm. It is taken for granted by most consumers that vehicles come with keyed access on the passenger-side, but nowhere in the manufacturers literature does it mention that there are no outside locks on the passenger-side of these vehicles. …”
