Example complaints

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

“The driver seat makes a loud noise when moving back and forth to adjust the position. Vibratation IS strong when you come to a stop and it feels like the car will die out. And dangerous to drive on a sunny day because of the glare from the dashboard. I have called dealership with no luck”
