Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The latches on the rear doors failed and would not latch shut. Had to tied doors down with rope in order to get home. I was fortunate the latches failed while it was parked and not while I was driving; could have caused an accident. Mini has this as a technical bulletin but charged me $233 to fix.”
