Example complaints

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

“The oil seal on this distributor assembly, part # hit-84255e failed which resulted in oil leaking into the distributor which made it impossible for the distributor to throw out a spark and thus would not run at all. This part costs over $400.00.”

NHTSA complaint #765879, filed 2002-08

“Fuel leakages are coming from the non-metallic fuel line fitting located close to exhaust system, which could have lead to a possible fire. Dealer notified and repairs were made. Feel free to provide any further details.”
