Example complaints

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

“On separate occasions for two days in a row I attempted to accelerate from a stopped position. I had no throttle control and the vehicle crept forward at idle speed until I was able to pull out of the flow of traffic safely. There was a recall a couple of years ago regarding this same issue and I had my vehicle repaired under the recall. Apparently this issue persists. An engine code was set as evidenced by the service engine soon display. I have not had the opportunity to investigate this code.”

NHTSA complaint #10953829, filed 2017-02, 115,000 miles

“Driving north on i95 near fayetteville, cruising at 75 MPH, had to accelerate suddenly to get into left lane ahead of other traffic, and make room for on-ramp car entering highway. When I floored the accelerator, my car engine stopped immediately, and I had to coast to a stop on the shoulder. I was able to call a tow truck, who delivered me to a local auto repair shop. The shop manager informed me of the failure as determined by the electronic analysis. Since he had to order parts, he had to take me and my family to a car rental company. After about 5 days, the car was ready for pickup. …”

“I was driving my 2006 Infiniti m35x home sunday night and it began to stall on me while driving. The car wouldn't accelerate and the brakes locked on me. I was on the freeway going about 70mph when this happened. The steering wheel wouldn't turn anymore and I began to panic as another speedy vehicle would potentially rear end me and maybe even kill me. I put my emergency lights on and called for help. My fuel gauge read about a half tank full of gasoline. I had a friend bring me gas to see if that was why this car wouldn't start anymore and unfortunately it was the problem. …”
