Example complaints

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

“Driving down ohio pike after a short stop, car felt like it was driving in a low gear or not shifting and the manual option was not engaged. Traveling approximately 35-45 MPH for about a mile or so when all of a sudden the steering wheel jerked to the left and car decelerated into oncoming traffic turn lane. Thankfully no one was in turn lane. I put car in park, collected my thoughts, daughter reached over and put hazards on. There were no warning lights on the dashboard and the weather was cloudy but dry conditions. …”
