Example complaints

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

“Purchased Mini cooper Countryman s new from factory. Recently had several elements of the car fail at around 50,000 miles. The trunk latch would intermittently not unlock or jam and not close. Trunk latch eventually failed to the point where the trunk hatch could not be opened. Rear wiper motor would make odd chirping noises occasionally, along with the right passenger side mirror would make a shuttering noise when closing. Took it to dealer and they had to replace the trunk latch actuator. In addition, they had to replace the rear wiper motor and the side driver's mirror. …”
