Example complaints

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

“While driving approximately 60 MPH on a deserted flat stretch of road surrounded by farmland, my sunroof suddenly exploded. The screen was open to provide light but the glass was shut. No other cars were nearby nor were any hills where a rock could fly from. It was just sudden. It sounded like a loud explosion and suddenly glass was flying all over the car. Fortunately, I didn't crash the car. Myself and my son who was in the passenger seat, we were both covered in glass.”

“There is a water leak in the roof, on the driver side, right above the a-pillar. This has happened on multiple occasions during a heavy rain storm. The leak occurs regardless of whether or not the vehicle is in motion. After taking it to the dealership for service, I was informed there was a manufacturer defect which could cause some gapping in the vehicle body roof ditch driver side, which may allow water to leak through. I am concerned for my family's safety as this situation could create mold and mildew in the interior liner. …”

“The exterior doors on the driver side made noise while in motion and we discovered the door jams had become loose or detached in spots. This is both driver side doors of a 4-door vehicle. We took it to the dealer and their invoice is quoted as follows install left fr applique. Replaced the left front and left rear applique . The total cost was $164.23. I am furious this wasn't under warranty or a recall. This is a 2 year old $60,000 vehicle and I'm upset we had to pay to replace these parts. I have contacted Gmc who noted and recommended I contact nhta, which is the purpose of this complaint. …”

“All doors on the vehicle lock when transmission is put into gear and all doors lock several seconds after door is shut with engine off. The automatic door locks can not be deactivated by myself or by the dealer. I find this both a safety issue and a inconvenience. As a commercial truck driver driven millions of miles I have both witnessed and have directly been involved with trying to get people extracted from wrecks. Due to locked doors in several cases this has not been possible without breaking a side glass and physically unlocking the door from inside of the vehicle. …”
