Example complaints

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

“My car, with less than 4k, has a spontaneous windshield crack that is large, long and travels across my line of vision which is a safety issue. Nothing hit the windshield, it is parked is locked garage and I did not drive over rough terrain, hit a pothole, drive under any bridges or park under a tree. I didn't drive on a highway either. I just got in my car and there it was! This crack is growing in length and I have noticed some black, foam trim curling up along the edge of where the windshield meets the hood. …”
