Example complaints

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

“The passenger side glass on my 2012 CT exploded for no particular reason a few days ago. I was on the highway doing about 65 MPH and I suddenly heard a loud 'boom' and the side window was gone... Completely gone. Nothing hit my car, no rocks, no bullets... No bricks. There was no one beside me and I was on I-81. Had I over-reacted, I could have crashed the car. Had there been a passenger in the seat, she would have been severely cut from the flying glass shards at 65 MPH. I experienced cuts on my right hand and arm. …”
