Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The contact stated while driving 35mph, the check engine light illuminated and the temperature gauge elevated followed by white steam erupting from underneath the hood. The vehicle was towed to a dealer who was unable to duplicate the problem. Additionally, the automatic stability traction control activated which causes the engine to stall. The dealer determined the traction assist cluster sensors needed to be replaced, however the problem persisted.”
