Example complaints

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

“My daughter got hit by 2 cars and only the headrest popped opened but no airbags went off. A car hit the car behind her, she was a complete stop, the car that hit the car behind her then hit her on the passenger side (almost like a t-bone). She now has a lot of shoulder, neck and spine issues from getting slammed into the drivers door. If the side airbag would have gone off, she would not be in so much pain from getting hit from behind and 2 seconds later got hit from the side. I see lots of issues on the coupe but not on the sedan models & I feel that others should know this too. …”

“We have a new Hyundai Genesis which has a factory defect causing a water leak and resulting in mold issues. Our family of 6 has had many health related issues since owning this car and mold testing has shown toxic mold. This has been an unknown issue with the vehicle since purchased new in february 2014 and discovered in april 2016. It affects the trunk and back seat. We are looking for resolution from the manufacturer who has been entirely unresponsive. A video and pictures of the mold is online on youtube at the link provided below. Any recommendation would be greatly appreciated. …”
