Example complaints

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

“After the rear driver's side seat has been disconnected from the floor latch, it will not reconnect, so the seat will not connect to the floor. There's something wrong with either the latch or the bar on the floor that the latch connects to. This happened when the vehicle was stationary and in my driveway.”
