Example complaints

“Takata recall a accident but airbag didn't use, and then I repaired the car, replaced the door. Yesterday I went to dealer to sell my car, they told me this problem, but it is not mine, the vehicle should be recalled, and my electronic control system, vehicular audio system cable doesn't work too. My friend was injured and went to emergency room, it costed thousand of dollars.”

NHTSA complaint #11228394, filed 2019-06, 110,000 miles

“Hit a rut, hole, shallow. Lights for airbag(near steering front) went off. Airbag did not engage. I was doing a u-turn, turning right off highway and then left for u-turn in front of a gas station. Why the station had left a hazard for customers to run in to as I did, a turn, I don't understand. Loud noise from right front, and before completed my turn. Sound came as I was turning.”
