Example complaints

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

“Driver's side seat broke - only 1/2 the side is now attached, happened while I was getting out of vehicle. Had I been in an accident, I'm sure I wouldn't be here now. Dealer wants $900 to fix. According to auto-parts store, it's common for the seats to break! If this isn't a safety issue I don't know what is! One expects to have to replace certain parts on a used vehicle, but not a seat! The part that anchors the seat in place either has a design flaw, or the parts are stressed and break. I'm very concerned about what may have happened to others.”
