Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I pulled out of a parking lot after having the vehicle parked there for about 2 hours- the vehicle is brand new with 725 miles on it and has been driven on city streets only since I've had it. I pulled out of the parking lot, drove 1 block in no traffic, and when parked at the stoplight, noticed a bit of smoke/steam coming from under the hood. Not a lot and the car wasn't overheating. Since the car was so new, I didn't know what to think of it but thought maybe it was a fluke. Drove it for 2 more errand stops on 30mph streets and then home. …”
