“While applying the brakes and pulling inside of a gas station the brakes failed. Also the undercarriage of the vehicle was rusted. The dealer has been notified.”
NHTSA complaint #10016130, filed 2003-04, 138,000 miles“Hi speed steering wheel vibration, eventually becoming all speed vibration. Dealer has turned or replaced the rotors at least 6 times in one and 1/2 years and claims there is no history of a problem. We've replaced tires, turned rotors, replaced rotors, aligned 2-3 times, high speed balanced, etc. I'd like service bulletins 97-19-4, 96222, 97-17-6 which all point to brake problems but I can't get details. Dealer is not helpful.”
NHTSA complaint #700194, filed 1998-10“The factory headlights are substandard at best and dangerous in low light conditions, such as poorly lit streets.the brake rotors front and rear are failing on my car and many others cars at an alarming rate. I've changed brake pads before in as little as 5000 miles, never have I had to replace a rotor at 3000 miles. 3000 miles is an interval for engine service...not brakes, brakes should last 10,000 miles easy. My rotors were warped in 3000 miles from the purchase. This is causeing brake and control problems with my car.”
NHTSA complaint #738780, filed 2001-01“Anti -theft device installed in vehicle by factory caused an electrical short; also steering wheel locked up, resulting in loss of control accident, speed 35 MPH and anti-lock brake failure.”
