Example complaints

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

“Abs and vsa lights come on intermittant at which time the vehicle cannot be shifted out of park. Pumping the brake allows shift but lights stay on, then sometimes just flash off and stability control and ABS resume operation. Can be dangerous on a sudden stop or high speed turn.”
