Example complaints

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

“As I was driving I noticed in the reflection of my windshield a crack in the dashboard. Upon further inspection I saw that there was a crack that ran from the vent on the dashboard up toward the steering wheel. This is clearly a manufacturing defect as this vehicle is only three years old, good condition, with 31000 miles on it. It is my concern that this crack as others unless fixed will continue to spread and become a larger safety concern for me and my family.”

NHTSA complaint #10639762, filed 2014-09, 31,016 miles
