“Brake warning light comes on dashboard and makes beeping sound when brake is not on, while I'm driving. Its been leaking under the dashboard by the foot pedals, almost every time we get a good rain shower in florida. When I get in after a rain and drive, it plus in on my feet or the passenger side.I asked them to check it and they said my windshield is the problem I should take it to my insurance to deal with. The car is extra loud even when window are altho way up. Headlights are very weak, you can barely see them on the road at night.”
NHTSA complaint #11221110, filed 2019-06, 31,000 miles“Night time driving is very difficult with just the low beams on. If the weather is bad, cloudy, or allmost no moon light, it is most noticeablewhen making left hand turns. The road can appear pitch black and I was unable to see the double yellow lines. In addition a slight upward grade adds to the problem. I'm not aware of this being a problem while the high beams are on however I have not been able to test them in the most troubling area that I frequently drive due to on coming traffic. High beams have helped in many areas that are difficult to see lane markers with just low beams. …”
NHTSA complaint #11389776, filed 2021-01, 60,000 miles“My car wouldn't start it would turn off as I'm sitting at a light, all my lights would blink on and off it was making a clicking sound then it finally turned on and my tire pressure light came on and a triangle with an explanation came on. I received a recall notice on my car, so I took it in and they told me it was the transmission and had to fix it they had my car for a whole week. I received my car back and about 2 months later my car continued to have the exact same problem. They fixed nothing!!!! My cars in the shop right now as we speak because of the same problem.”
NHTSA complaint #11120087, filed 2018-08, 58,000 miles“Over the last month, I continue to experience the front end collision crash sensor erroneously engaging, almost daily. I also get a front end sensor malfunction warning. The sensor was supposedly replaced twice by the dealership while under warranty, however, I still continue to have these errors pop up. I also hear, when backing up, a rubbing sound like the suspension is bad on the rear of the vehicle. I notified the dealership, but they told me there was no issue found. The driver's seat constantly squeaks, like something is lose underneath (like the bolts attaching it to the frame). …”
