Example complaints

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

“A steering failure occurred at about 50 MPH while entering a gentle curve to the left. It caused the car to veer to the left. Car left the travel lane and briefly entered the smoothly paved and level shoulder of the divided roadway. Correction to the right triggered ESC system. At that point the driver input to steering and brakes were overridden by the ESC system. Esc sent car straight ahead but we were on a curve. This sent the car into the guard rail on the right side of the road after crossing both lanes because the car would not respond to steering wheel forces or to brakes. …”
