Example complaints

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

“The back windshield exploded for no reason. The car was parked and not struck by any objects. Police investigated and first pointed out that it looks like it exploded outward, from the inside rather than being hit. Two holes where glass fell outside the vehicle, but it is clearly bowing outward”

NHTSA complaint #11103622, filed 2018-06, 23,000 miles

“The contact owns a 2016 Honda Odyssey. While driving 70 MPH, the driver and passenger side windows malfunctioned. The contact stated that the windows continued to roll up and down on their own. The dealer lubricated the windows, but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 10,000.”
