Example complaints

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

“The window spontaneuosly burst. Upon reporting it to the police figuring some foul play I was told that hondas in the seattle area have done this before. The oficer said it happened to himself and it is due to the curvature of the windows which is noticeably different than my replacement window. Is this type of accident being reported? Other people with similar stories have told me that their vehicles had been recalled and the windows replaced.”

NHTSA complaint #722986, filed 2000-05
