Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I'm barely reaching close to 6000 miles and I'm already hearing clunk sounds on my suspensions when I slowly go into a dip or drive across a bump, now sometimes the engine would have this rattling sound when I accelerate between 2000-3000 rpms and sometimes when I remove the parking brake and go reverse the braking system would randomly brake on me violently and put it on park. I bought the vehicle at 84 miles.”
NHTSA complaint #11173632, filed 2019-02, 5,000 miles“(registering this complaint on 16 sep 19). I bought this car new ('18 Accord Hybrid), 6 sep 18. A couple months later the front struts started making a creaking/popping sound. It was very noticeable when backing out of garage and then driving out of my neighborhood. When I'd rock the steering back and forth, the noise was very audible. Took it back to the dealer and they said neither front strut had been lubed from the factory (very odd), so they lubed them. 2-3 weeks later noise returned. This time dealer said one strut was bad and they replaced it. A month later the same noise returned. …”
