Example complaints

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

“Dashboard on 2009 Lexus es 350 has begun to melt and on sunny days the reflection on the windshield poses a safety hazard and reduces visibility. There was a recall for this problem on 2007 and 2008 models. The 2009 is identical in design and Lexus should fix this. I contacted them and they offered to pay a small portion of the $1700 repair costs.”

NHTSA complaint #11132175, filed 2018-09, 72,000 miles

“On the evening of december 13, 2010, victim left his car running in his garage. The car has a smart key which is a remote key-fob. This means that he does not have to turn a key to turn the ignition on and off. Instead, the car turns on and off by pressing the same button on the dash board. He must have forgotten to turn the car off. He then went to sleep and suffered carbon monoxide poisoning during the night. He was found unconscious on the floor the next morning. The car was still running. The victim was taken to the hospital, where he is in the icu and sedated.”
