Example complaints

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

“My wife was driving down I-75 on a very rainy downpour. She turned on the wipers and the passenger side wipers did not work. She arrived home and took the car the next day to a Lexus dealership. The bolts were loose. There should be a fail safe to prevent this from happening. Of all the cars we have owned..........this has never happened before.(including a 2007 Lexus we also drive).”

NHTSA complaint #11362565, filed 2020-10
