Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Driving as I normally do on my normal route, doing about 30 MPH, and car wouldn't make the corner. Went over curb, bent the rim in two places, and of course ruined the tire. It was as if the car was intent on going right. No evidence of stability control working. Have never had an experience like that. Called aaa and they changed tire. Drove to dealer, and was given an estimate of over $500.00 to repair damage. Estimate included rim, oem tire, plastic wheel cover ($80.00) told it would be necessary to have a four wheel alignment. …”
NHTSA complaint #10927344, filed 2016-11, 10,000 miles“Driving on highway, hot day temp on dash read 98 degrees. All electronics shut down, A/C shut down. Power steering shut down and was barely able to steer car to the side of the road. 3rd time this has happened and do not feel safe driving car especially now that I'm pregnant.”
NHTSA complaint #11222758, filed 2019-06, 113,000 miles“2015 Nissan Versa Note sv suffers from faulty brake light switch. Brake light switch intermittent and does not light up the rear brake lights when applying the brakes. Consequently, when the brake light switch is working, the traction control light will also illuminate and cause the traction control system to be disabled. This is a serious safety hazard. First, failure to illuminate the rear brake lights when braking will fail to alert drivers that you are stopping and puts you at risk for a rear end collision. …”
NHTSA complaint #11041875, filed 2017-11, 55,000 miles“With the vehicle in motion and no warning lights on, all electronics shut down except for the turning indicators, along with the engine. Accelerator no longer functioned nor did the break assist. After pulling over and turning the car off, it would not start again through turning the key ignition. The car remained in that state until I shook battery cables (which were not loose and maintained full contact both before and after shaking). Afterwards, the car started as usual with no warning lights. This has happened three times now, all instances ending in the car power shutting down.”
NHTSA complaint #11079975, filed 2018-03, 39,000 miles“My car will randomly shut down while driving when it gets too hot. The steering locks up, all the lights come on in the car (engine light etc.) and I can't drive. It starts working again when I turn it off and turn it back on. I already took it to the dealership but it has done it since I've taken it. It has done it while driving on both the freeway and city streets.”
