Example complaints

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

“Faulty code P0A7B and P0A1F for the Battery Energy Control Module BECM was diagnosed. Check engine light appeared and then car shut off at a light when attempting to press accelerator. Was told by dealer the part needed replacement instead of just a software update. A recall was shown in general for my year and type but not specifically for my vehicle. My vehicle should be included with this recall to replace the component.”

NHTSA complaint #11692476, filed 2025-10

“48V DCDC converter failed leaving car with no power or option to move safety to the side of the road. Part currently backordered due to a high amount of failures.”

NHTSA complaint #11721537, filed 2026-03

“Car jumped forward while coming to a stop. Almost hit a child crossing in the crosswalk. Also happened numerous times coming to a stop at the off ramp. Engine idles very rough, high pitch idle, and RPMs surge up and down on their own. Dealer won’t believe us. They don’t want to use resources to fix what is covered by warranty. This car is a danger to drive. Has also stalled unexpectedly. Dealer only looks for software update and warning lights. We’ve never had a warning light and updates do absolutely nothing. Forums show others are experiencing the same thing. …”
