Example complaints

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

“The tachometer of the car sticks in high revs (1500-2500),engine on, car in neutral, foot off the gas pedal, if the car is moving over 20-25mph (either by free falling a hill or being pulled) the tachometer varies the RPM reading to match speed just as if the car would be in 'd' position. I think the ecu has a glitch of some sort that ignores the gas pedal and the shift position if the car is moving. Taken to the dealership and they said car is working as designed, that the car will keep rpms to match speed in to avoid a engine slowdown or something similar. …”
