Example complaints

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

“In May 2022 with 7151 miles on it, the drive belt exploded and they said it was due to a faulty tensioner. During removal of the tensioner, scraps of the belt were noted stuck in the AC compressor pulley and under the shield and engine compartment. This also caused a loss of coolant. The following fault indicators were on: Check engine light, charging system INOP, and low coolant light as well. Sound very similar to recall# N785 and I think my VIN should be included. …”

“I was driving when an Electrical Fault Detected warning came on. The car's instructions were to pull over as soon as possible, as the car's electrical system was draining the battery and the car could shut down within a few miles. We had the car towed to a repair shop where they ran tests on the car and replaced the battery. This did not fix the issue, and they came back a day later to find the brand new battery had drained. I then had it towed to another repair shop who replaced the alternator but that didn't solve the problem so they had it towed to the dealer. …”
