Example complaints

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

“I drove in my driveway. Shifted to park and turned off the ignition, popped the trunk release. Exited the car and saw the trunk lid was down. Got the remote out of my pocket and pressed it to open trunk . Trunk still didn't open. Went back to driver's door, opened it and the alarm system and lights went off, and my car started rolling backwards and knocked me down and ran over me!”
