Example complaints

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

As I passed the truck, the car suddenly jammed on the brakes. I'm not sure, but I either instinctively hit cancel on the cruise control, or I put my foot on the brake. Either way, it arrested the hard braking situation. …”

The vehicle threw an immediate Adaptive Steering Loss Do Not Drive alarm, which subsequently hard-locked the steering gear into its mechanical backup mode while mid-rotation. …”
