Example complaints

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

“I parked my Mini clubman s and went inside a fast food restaurant for only 10 minutes, when I returned to my Mini, I was shocked to see smoke coming from under the hood. I released the hood latch and tried without success to open the hood. A nearby witness called out to me as he ran to assist with an extinguisher realizing my car was on fire. I immediately called 911 and stood helplessly watching as my 4-month old car was engulfed in flames within minutes. …”
