Example complaints

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

“The issue is identical to the one on record for structure issues on this car. While driving the front passenger wheel and it's assembly flew off from the car. The car had been having some steering difficulty's and I was actually bringing it in to the firestone station- it actually happened right in front of the firestone center. The tire arm connecting to the frame was totally rusted out. The price to fix the car will be totally astronomical. There should be no reason that the car would rust out and cause that damage- it is 10 years old. We had even bought the extra rust package on the car. …”
