Example complaints

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

“Areas of the console, mainly the frame around the gps/media display, as well as the interior doors are highly reflective. At certain times of the day, the sun reflects off them and causes extreme visibility problems. I actually had to pull off the road one day because I got a bright light in the eyes that produced an effect similar to a camera flash, and I was unable to see. I really scared me, as I almost ran off the road when it happened. …”

NHTSA complaint #11498111, filed 2022-12
