Example complaints

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

“The headlights that came standard on 1993-1996 mark viiis are not safe for public roads. They are probably the weakest headlights ever placed into a vehicle during the 1990s. Im surprised they even passed the DOT regulations. The headlights provide very little lighting for the road and they do not even give enough light to the street signs so that they can be read legibly and easily. Driving on a poor lit road is impossible without turning on the high beams because other wise you become a hazard because of poor visibility. …”

NHTSA complaint #10049419, filed 2003-12, 50,000 miles

“This device was repaired twice under warranty. Now that it failed again out of warranty (same type problem), I have to pay $255.00 out of pocket to have it repaired. No safety defect listed in the summary.”
