Example complaints

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

“When I'm driving, especially when turning a corner, my car suddenly decelerates for several seconds even when I'm pressing the excelerator. If I needed power in a crunch situation, I would be out of luck. This mainly happens during in-town driving. I've experienced this many times but this is my 1st report.”
