Example complaints

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

“Driver's side mirror with convex outer edge is dangerous, especially in highway driving. It's very difficult to assess which lane oncoming traffic is in. The design makes lane changing very uneasy for the driver. I have had several close calls because of this problem during the 3 months I have owned this vehicle.”

NHTSA complaint #10948625, filed 2017-01, 1,500 miles

“The passenger side windshield wiper keeps falling out. Also, every time when I use the wipers only have the passenger side window is cleaned prior to the wiper falling out of the holder. If I am in town and notice the wiper I will get out at a stop light to fix it but most of the time I am driving at 65 or more when the wiper falls out of the holder. This happens every week sometimes multiple times a day.”
