Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“After driving the car one evening the engine spontaneously caught a fire. The fire deptartment said it started from some problem in the engine. In addition we notice the heat of the fire did not deploy the driver and passenger side air-bags. Normally in many cases of car fires the fire will deploy the emergency air-bags and cause the car alarm to sound this did not happen with my incident.”

NHTSA complaint #10838978, filed 2016-02, 250 miles“Driver's seat belt keeps releasing while driving. Latch does not fully engage when attempting to fasten belt. Ongoing issue since late june. Supposedly dealership ordering parts to repair it but still has not happened.”
NHTSA complaint #10927148, filed 2016-11, 10,000 miles“My car had a recall on the passenger seat belt, I took it to the dealer to be fixed and after they did, they told me that the airbag light will stay on until someone over 100 pounds sets there then it will turn off, and they told me that the red seat belt light on the dash board will stay on all the time, and yes I still have this problem with my car, both lights are on all the time and the dealer is not doing anything about it. If my car dose not detect any one hows less than 100 pounds on the passenger side that means my car is not safe at all.”
