Example complaints

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

“Single vehicle rollover aprox. 75mph on highway.. Vehicle equipped with side curtain airbags. Vehicle was impacted with extreme force on all sides and top of vehicle. Drivers left shoulder and face where injured during the impact and roll. Side curtain deployment would have saved driver from injury if they where working properly.”

NHTSA complaint #10780698, filed 2015-10, 37,000 miles

“Horn stopped working when steering wheel in straight position. When steering wheel is moved to the right the horn works. When the steering wheel is moved to the left , the horn works in certain positions but is not consistent. This creates a potentially hazardous situation when driving straight you cannot use the horn to warn other cars or pedestrians. Noticed the horn issues in the begging of november 2017. Not sure how long the horn was broken before that.”
