Example complaints

Engine: “My car is a 2019 Mini Countryman All4 S. It currently has 17,000 miles. I bought it new, and it has only been serviced by the Dealer. On July 20, it was in for an oil change, and they informed me that right engine mount was starting to tear and needed to be replaced. The price quoted was $1,135.83. I have owned many cars with a lot more age and mileage, and have never had to replace an engine mount. They said if I did not replace it, it would eventually damage other parts of the engine. …”

NHTSA complaint #11756775, filed 2026-08

Air bags: “I was stopped at a red light behind a line of cars. A toyota tundra going 45-60 mph rear ended me. This sent me into the car ahead of me and sandwiched me in between the two. It destroyed the front and back of my vehicle. The tundra's airbags went of, mine did not. Despite me taking most of the damage and force. The car is totaled.”

NHTSA complaint #11695712, filed 2025-10

Fuel system: “A backseat spill caused the fuel pump control module to completely fail. While driving at approximately 40 MPH on a frontage road, the Mini jerked started shaking and came to a complete stop. A drivetrain malfunction warning came up. The vehicle, once stopped, began working again with no electric warning. The next day, the car would start, drive for 10 feet, then stop, with the drivetrain malfunction warning. We towed the car to a Mini dealer, who informed us that a spilled drink in the backseat destroyed the fuel pump control module. …”

Other or unknown: “While driving my Countryman on the highway at about 50 MPH, I my steering wheel suddenly and randomly jerked to the right. The jerk was sever enough to cause the car to swerve into the next lane cutting off a close by vehicle. I was able to maintain my line, and the issue occurred again causing my car to swerve an additional time. This is of serious concern for all drivers that this happens to and I am afraid that this will result in injury or death. During this time the elweather was dry and about 60f.the road was clear of debris, potholes and bumps. …”
