Example complaints

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

“After having a service on my 2010 Hyundai Tucson, 2 days later the ESC indicator light came on, and the dbc indicator light came on, and the shifter was hard to put into gear. Took it in and they changed the shifter. About 2 weeks later the same two lights came on again, only this time when you pressed on the gas the RPM would shoot up but the car wouldn't move, and the brakes were locked. The car was towed and the map sensor was changed. When I was told the car was fixed I came in to test drive the car and the check engine light was on. I did not take the car. …”
