Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Driving 60mph on busy 3-lane highway, I/heard a loud bang from the engine then lost complete control of steering. I was able to 'muscle' the car over to the side, slowed and went directly to the miller dealership. They said this same thing had happened to others due to cold weather they said they would report this event. (st. Cloud, mn).”
