Example complaints

“Purchased my 2001 Aztek in october 2000. Every year (winter) since 2001, I have had to take my vehicle into the dealership for repair because I lose my traction control which automatically takes out my ABS brakes. The dealership doesn't have a clue as to why this is happening. This is a safety issue, considering where I live. There are 5 incident dates, thus far.”
NHTSA complaint #10139047, filed 2005-10“Fuel leakage: system malfunctioning-inability to make a good seal... Tank-leakage fuel/emissions- detect problem currently passenger air bag may need pin replace: wish to have all checked out! Safety child seat holder may not be functional.”
