Example complaints

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

“Driving on interstate...airbag deployed, seat belts locked, caused injuries to left arm, pain up through arm and neck, bruises, and burns. Drove to mb on 5/30/06. They checked car out. Mb stated it was the front flex disc that broke and hit the senser to cause airbag and all safety features to lock up. Gave me my car back, without asking to fix my safety features.. Flex disc was bought new and installed 4 months earlier. Had another new disc installed on 6/3/06. Would like to have my safety features fixed.”
