Example complaints

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

“While driving our brand new car from dealership, a small stone must have hit. It made a 2-3 inch crack and by the time we were home it was already 12 inch crack. It had happened to me in my Audi and the only thing I could see is a small point in the windshield which I was able to fix. Googling around it seems like I am not the only one who is facing this issue and there was in fact some recall too in the past with Kia cars.”

NHTSA complaint #11479782, filed 2022-08
