Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“My vehicle was listing to the right side. I took the vehicle for repairs to a neighborhood garage who informed me that that it had a defect that needed to be corrected by the dealer. The dealer said it needed repair to the airbag, shocks & struts (costing me over $4000). After research I discovered there have been eight TSB's on this particular vehicle (in 2008, 2009 and 2010), all referencing defects to the structural integrity. This was a dangerous problem that could have resulted in an accident with injury to my family, myself and/or other innocent parties. …”
