Example complaints

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

“I have a 2005 Gmc yukon. The liftgate and liftgate window both will not unlock and open. The rest of the doors and locks are fine. These can only be opened from the outside, not from the inside. This is a serious safety issue for my family, especially my 4 year old who rides in the back. If there were ever and emergency we would not be able to escape from the rear of the vehicle.”
