Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“When steering wheel is turned to the right while driving. A metal scraping noise occurs. This has been fixed several times but keeps occuring more often. This only happens when car is in motion. And I believe it has something to do with the placement of the brake shield. As if something is pressing on it.”
