Example complaints

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

“Subject: Hyundai Genesis 2009 4.6 litre. New car 2000 miles driven. When one comes to a stop with the engine running and transmission in drive and then when the stop/start button is pressed, the engine stops but when the gear shift lever is pushed forward from drive towards park it will only travel as far as neutral . This is a hazard as anyone not familiar with driving the car might assume the car is in park or leave it in drive or neutral , walk away and permit the car to free wheel roll. …”
