Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Warm air from the climate control vents- car is under 45,000 miles and needs a new evaporator- most cars will never need a new evaporator, especially one that is under four years old.”
NHTSA complaint #11325334, filed 2020-05, 45,200 miles“When starting the car in cold weather, the driver assistance system, to include rear camera display, navigation, hands-free voice commands and calling, continuously restarts for close to 15 minutes rendering safe navigation unavailable. Without a backup navigation system, drivers cannot get turn prompts and safely plan for the next exit or turn. This has happened repeatedly and could be related to the current open recall for the CX-3.”
