Example complaints

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

“I have had many problems that is costing me lots of money now to fix. Five years ago, my distributor cap cracked, reason unknown. Driven by old lady. Because it cracked, it caused water to be able to seep in, causing the car to stall out. Don't know why it would have cracked. Another problem it has is when I went to use the cruise control, springs flew out of it. I had never used it before. Another problem is the axles, cv joints and steering kit. Everything went out on my car. One lead to the next. …”
