Example complaints

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

“When there is a passenger sitting in the front passenger seat, sometimes the 'airbag off' indicator light will go on randomly. I even have video proof of this happening while my girlfriend, weighing 130 pounds, was sitting in the front passenger seat with her seatbelt on. The light would stay on for minutes, sometimes an hour, before randomly turning off. Also, the engines oxygen sensor randomly triggers the 'service engine' light as well, I believe it needs to be reprogrammed.”

NHTSA complaint #11119301, filed 2018-08, 40,000 miles

“The check engine repeatedly comes one and car stalls or idles when driving. Can not pass inspection due to p0014 and p0024 camshaft codes repeatedly coming back on. Research shows this is a common problem with these models. This occurs when driving in the city limits.”
