Example complaints

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

“Was driving about 30mph and hit the brake pedal, the brake pedal went to the floor and we ran into a trailer. The brake lines were rusted so bad that they busted, and caused the brake fluid to leak out. The estimate to repair the brake lines alone is $2800.”
