Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The airbag light came on with only 54,000 miles on this Jaguar, that is not normal as I have owned Jaguar cars for 3 decades. Also the air suspension failure occurred at 55,000 miles which is the current mileage and the car was parked for two weeks without any movements. This vehicle drives less than 3000 miles a year now and I'm super disappointed in this factor where as my wife's mercedes s500 with 139,000 miles on it has no issues on it at all.”
NHTSA complaint #11181222, filed 2019-02, 55,968 miles“While proceeding to park in the driveway, the vehicle experienced a sudden acceleration and forcibly struck another vehicle that was parked in the garage. During this incident the driver had no control of braking or steering. The impact was severe enough to cause the airbag to deploy and sustain major damage to both vehicles.”
