Example complaints

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

“I've had my routine maintenance done on this vehicle since I financed it back in june of 2019 which was at 47k miles. There was no issues, I had my last maintenance done in october at 70k miles. My transmission showed no signs of going out , there's no leakage of any sort. It just decided saturday, january 2 of 2021 that it was just going to go out. I took it to the dealership january 5th, and he told me it'll be $7035.09 to replace. I feel as though there should be a recall on this transmission just like the recalls for the 2016 models. The dash just now says transmission service required. …”
