Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Since the day of purchase we have had the same problem and have attempted to try to fix the problem, but have been unsuccessful. The dealership acknowledged the problem and stated they cannot fix it because they are not sure why it is happening. Tires on the driver, front and rear were put on backwards. Have contacted the company numerous times and have had three representatives look at the car with no satisfaction yet. We have sent registered letters, but have had no response. We live in a rural area and the roads are very curvy and this problem could contribute to a real problem. …”
