Example complaints

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

“I purchased a 2016 QX80 last week. After filling my car with fuel, within 10 minutes, my gas gauge went from full, to down 3/4 of a tank of gas. After only 50 miles of driving, with no air conditioning on, I'm at 1/2 of a tank according to my fuel gauge. There is absolutely no way that can be correct.”
