Example complaints

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

“This happened some time ago but I recently read of an investigation that you have undertaked and decided that this may be relevant. I also have seen service bulletins for this issue. While driving, the accelerator cable became detached from the accelerator and I lost all acceleration while traveling at 65 MPH on a freeway in morning traffic. It seems that this should rise to the level of a recall. Fortunately, I was able to pull into the regular lane of traffic and then to the berm before the vehicle came to a complete stop and before I was rear ended by the vehicle behind me. …”
