Example complaints

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

“I was recently in an accident in which I was rear ended by a bus. At the instant that the accident happened my airbags went off and my drivers seat collapsed backwards. After the accident I looked at the seat and saw that the hinges that hold the cushion and seatback together both snapped causing the seat to collapse backwards. It is a good thing no one was sitting behind me as their legs would have been crushed.”
