Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I was driving approximately 35 MPH in town and without warning, my engine sounds like it is making popcorn. I had to pull over and have the car towed to my mechanic. He found that the engine blew a spark plug. He installed a helicoil repair and then found the engine would only run on 3 cylinders. They then found that they had to replace the engine computer and all 6 ignition coils or the computer would not be warranted. After these repairs there was a ticking noise in the engine that had not been there. …”
