Example complaints
Air bags: “I am the original owner of the Nissan 370Z 2017 year, bought it new directly from Nissan dealer. I just had a major accident on the freeway with a big transportation truck (not a consumer pick up truck). I was in collision with it at least 2 times, on the driver side initially and then the front after spinning few rounds in middle of busy freeway. Thankfully, I am alive but looking through the picture of my damaged car after getting out from er, it just didn't make sense to me why airbag didn't deploy. I wanted to see if other owners of the car had any similar issue. …”

NHTSA complaint #11405912, filed 2021-04Transmission and drivetrain: “The seal on the Clutch Slave Cylinder failed and contaminated the hydraulic system in the car. This prevented the car from being able to enter gear as the clutch could not be disengaged. This resulted in me being stuck in the middle of the road, unable to move the car unless I turned the car off, stuck it in gear, then started it up and gunned the engine at the same time. My car is a 2017, with only 31,000 miles on it. …”
