Example complaints

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

“Over the last 2 year, I have been having issues starting my Jeep. It would not crank at all 2 or 3 times and than start with no problems. It would be fine for a few days and than do it again. Morning, afternoon, when raining or snowing, it is unpredictable. Starting 3 days ago, my air bag light is coming on when turning left and than would go off after a few minutes of driving. Today, I had it checked at work and it came up as the driver side air bag is the source of the problem. …”
