Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Mostly all the time, the engine kicks in (charge mode) even the battery is at full charge. Mostly all the time, highway driving or just picking up.. The engine is at eco mode, the gas engine is working at high RPM. Sounds just like a regular engine car at 8rpm sound. Speed at 65mph.”
