Example complaints

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

“After the recent RECALL, while driving up I almost got in an accident because after upshifting the car, the car accelerated more than I intended, prolonged movement forward that never happened before the recall. This is a very dangerous situation.”

NHTSA complaint #11649152, filed 2025-03

“Driving under normal conditions, heard a “pop” near the rear of the car and within seconds had an immediate loss of power. The dashboard had lit up with “Check electric vehicle system” and was limited to 20 MPH on a 45 MPH road with no safe place to stop. Was able to limp car home, dealer confirmed ICCU was faulty and had to be replaced. My family was very very lucky to not be on a highway when this occurred. …”

Unfortunately, the mode has a dangerous component in the programming, wherein, when the driver has been accelerating in a spirited fashion and lifts off the throttle, the vehicle CONTINUES TO ACCELERATE for approximately 1-2 seconds despite there being no input from the operator to do so. …”
