Example complaints

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

“The car was running fine and had no problems then when I started it up one day the dash lights and tail lights started pulsing. I thought it might be the alternator so I had it checked out. The shop said the alternator is in perfect condition and couldn't figure out the problem. The pulsating lights is still going on, and I haven't been able to find out what the problem is.”
