Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I bought the truck on a cloudy day. When the sun hit it, it had swirl marks burnt into it from where it was buffed at the factory. When turned in they buffed it again. Now that it rained it still shows all. Another problem is the transmission. It has severe lag and sometimes won't shift at all.”
