Example complaints

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

“Car losing power when water from rain splashes under and hits belt. Mech. Has confirmed splash shield is not big enough to cover belts. This is very dangerous and causing power steering and all to be lost. It does come back on. But have not been able to find a fix for issue. Have seen online I am not the only one, dealer is no help to me. Hoping this gets things started.”
