Example complaints

“My vehicle has a significant vibration when traveling 40mph and above with a rear window down. The vibration is also accompanied by increased cabin pressure. These issues are causing headaches, nausea, and dizziness. Dealership confirms issue and tried to repair, but unable to. The vibration started right after we took delivery of the car and has only gotten worse. We bought the car in october 2015 and the issue continues unfixed to this day after 5 visits.”

NHTSA complaint #11115679, filed 2018-08, 50,000 miles“Driving in snowy conditions with the vehicle in 4wd, began navigating a turn and the vehicle seemed to shift into neutral, and the dash displayed the 4wd shift on progress on the dash without driver touching the 4wd buttons. Could not steer or brake or do anything. Vehicle ended up hitting a wall causing a fair amount of damage. Vehicle does not go in for repairs until next week but the dealership made it sound like it's a transfer case issue which appears to be a known issue on these vehicles.”
