Example complaints

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

“I've noticed that 96 and newer Gmc Savana's and chevrolet express full size vans have a problem with the rear taillights. I've been looking frequently for a recall but have yet to see one. The problem is when the brakes are applied, the right brake light is very dim. I've changed the bulbs several times thinking this would solve the problem but it hasn't. When the tail lamps are turned on and the brakes are applied, the right side completely malfunctions. I would really hate to get a ticket for a burned out tail lamp when that isn't the case.”

NHTSA complaint #10139827, filed 2005-10
