Example complaints

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

“When you start your truck up let it warm up you start driving down the road and you touch the brakes and the RPM start going up and down up and down with vehicle dying sporadically”

NHTSA complaint #11280526, filed 2019-11, 130,000 miles

“The truck experiences engine stutter at low idle (>1000rpms) varying from 1000 rpms to 200 rpms with felt loss of power steering at low rpms. At lower rpms, typically at stops or low idle turns, the truck will stall with loss of power steering and brake control (tapping the brake equals slamming the brake). Recently, the issue is now becoming more frequent and now occurring while making low idle turns into traffic causing a stall. The only resolution is to drop the truck in neutral, in traffic, and restart hoping the bump start will occur on the first try before being hit from behind. …”
