Example complaints

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

“1. Car was hard to stop when braking for a light 2. Car accelerated on is own when entering driveway had to slam on brakes 3. Checked around the pedals for any thing that may have caused this. Nothing was found so I took the car for a test drive. And when I slowed on my street prior to turning into my driveway the car took off on it's own again. I had to put the car in neutral to stop it. When I did the engine redlined by itself.”

NHTSA complaint #10585169, filed 2014-04, 16,800 miles

“Service engine soon light came on and the car suddenly accelerated by itself from 40 MPH to 55 MPH without me touching any pedal. I had to push the brakes hard to get the car under control. Once I approached stop sign the car would not pick up the acceleration even when I am trying to accelerate, it picks up really slowly. I am going to take it to dealer tomorrow and if it is a manufactures defect I am going to consumer court to solve the issue. I was really terrified driving the car.”
