Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“When pushing on the brake pedal the brakes, at times, do not grab as they are supposed to. I've pushed the pedal to the floor and kept moving. This does not happen all the time, but it is reoccurring. This event has happened to me at lest three times.”
NHTSA complaint #11302098, filed 2020-01, 124,500 miles“The passenger side LED brake light assembly is constantly illuminated as if the brakes are applied but they are not. Makes a safety hazard as it is distracting to drivers that are following and they may misjudge my braking. This is the second assembly that I have had go faulty. The first was the day I bought it but the dealer replaced the $400 part for free.”
NHTSA complaint #10619181, filed 2014-08, 53,000 miles“I was driving and brake pedal started slowly losing pressure I replaced brake calipers and rotors and still have the same problem I believe it is to be the ABS brake system I'm not sure how to go about replacing this or what to do to file for a recall”
NHTSA complaint #11228584, filed 2019-06, 180,000 miles“When braking to slow down or get to a stop the brake pedal pressed down but the car didn't seem to stop as quick as it should have. A while later, when having to brake quickly, the car hit another vehicle infront of it. The accident took place on a city road. No police report was filed because the other car's bumper had minor damage unlike my car which the front & hood of has substantial damage.the repair estimate for me was about 4k dollars which is higher than I can afford.”
NHTSA complaint #11373887, filed 2020-11, 56,000 miles“I was at a store for a while I came outside I crank my car put the car in reverse simultaneously the traction control light the ABS system light came on along with the power steering going out I did see. This is all the symptoms of a recall but it is not associated with my VIN number now the dealership that has my vehicle has service three other recalls where is servicing three other recalls that has told me that now I will have to pay $3,500 for a rack and pinion replacement and whatever this recall causes for my brakes”
