Example complaints

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

“Truck in front had hit brakes so I had tapped mine. Went back to cruise control to maintain distance. I hit the brakes at 0:00:15 when I realized the car was not slowing down. The brakes were palpitating and fighting me the car was not stopping. I could not go right as a car was to my right and if I went left the impact would have been on my daughter’s side and another car was coming on that side as well. Air bags did not deploy, my chest hit the steering wheel (chest impact injury soft tissue), car gave air bag deployment error. The other two cars were able to drive away. …”
