Example complaints

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

“2004 FX35- black smoke comes from the exhaust pipes when the car is started for the first time each day. I have shown the dealership video of this and yet they still are reluctant to admit there is a problem. My gas mileage is far less that the epa estimates. The transfer case has also been replaced twice in one year.”
