Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Delay with windshield wipers, take too long to pop up and than wipe, design should have never been allowed, the couple of seconds it takes for the wipers to move from off position to when you turn them on is long enough to cause an accident on a day after it rains where you are passed by a vehicle driving through a puddle, cannot see, and could possibly injure somebody. Constantly losing power steering fluid. Transmission was replaced once due to slippage got it back and started to do so again the first 200 miles.”
