Example complaints

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

“My front windshield has a tiny ding in the uppermost corner passenger side that has developed a diagonal crack extending more than half way across toward the driver's side. My nephew has the same problem with his vehicle also. The company referred me to the dealership who of course, tells me that this is normal for 21st century safety glass that cannot localize pebble strikes which requires replacement of the windshield assembly.”

NHTSA complaint #10226919, filed 2008-05, 35,000 miles

“I took my vehicle in for wiper repair and the technician attached a computer to the vehicle and the computer told him the wipers were functioning properly. The technician said he could not duplicate the problem, the technician did not turn the wipers on to visually see the problem and depended on the computer for a resolution. The switch was replaced ($500.00) but the problem remained. A body control module (bcm <$700.00 part>) was ordered prior to 25 nov 2012 and to date 9 mar 2013 has not been received. I have driven for 4 months of rain/snow season without proper wiper functioning. …”
