Example complaints

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

“One morning, my father turned on the car. It was still in Park. He and my mom heard a noise, as if my dad was pushing on the gas pedal, but he was not. They turned off the car, turned it on again, and everything seemed fine. After driving for a bit, my father was back home and parking the car. Because of the way the parking lot is, you have to go slowly, less than 10 miles an hour, pushing on the gas a little to go up and incline and then turn right to slide into the parking spot as you break to finally park. …”

NHTSA complaint #11470610, filed 2022-06

“While attempting to park and depressing the brake the car made a sudden acceleration without input and hard braking did not slow the car. The car then impacted the curb. On another occasion while stopped at a red light the car began to move forward while the break was depressed. Pressing the break with additional force did not stop the vehicle and it continued to roll forward.”

NHTSA complaint #11692977, filed 2025-10

“What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Braking and acceleration control, yes How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? The car continued to move/accelerate after depressing the brake pedal, and upon applying additional force continued to move forward, this could lead to a situation where a diver is unable to stop their car when they need to. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? …”
