Example complaints

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

“My car failed inspection due to an erosion in the frame. I was told that it was the result of the air conditioner condensation dripping on it. As there was no issue in 2014 and I drove the car fewer that 8000 miles in the year, I am concerned about this issue. The car is garaged at all times and was driven very infrequently in the winter months. I have had it repaired and it has now passed inspection.”
