Example complaints

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

“I was making a right hand turn onto a 2 lane divided highway. As I was turning I lost steering power and my brake light indicator came on. I was eventually able to regain steering after crossing both lanes of on coming traffic. The alternator belt was replaced. The very next day the exact same thing occurred except there was a loud squeal that happened following the loss of steering and the battery light coming on.this is a significant safety concern to lose steering while driving the vehicle. I had also experienced the ABS sensor, emergency brake sensor, and ESC sensor coming on. …”
