Example complaints

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

“Since I purchased this vehicle 2.5 months ago, the windshield wipers started chattering/making noise and not working properly after about 2 days. I brought the car in and the dealership replaced the wipers. The chattering started again shortly after, then the dealership polished the windshield. It worked well for about 2-3 weeks and now the wipers are starting to streak and chatter again. I have a third appointment to have the windshield re-polished and wipers replaced, again. I have no faith this will fix the issue since its been done before. …”
