Example complaints

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

“The ability to make calls through Apple CarPlay was an important consideration when I purchased both of these cars. This was especially the case because my insurance company, for safety reasons, monitors whether I make handheld calls while driving. Both cars have an issue when you try to do a phone call through Apple CarPlay. When I try to make a phone call, it is choppy and full of static, and makes a loud cracking sound, making phone calls nearly impossible. The problem is not intermittent; it happens with every call. …”
