Example complaints

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

“I was driving my Solstice on the high way at 55mph in the left lane. All of the sudden it seemed like the motor died I started to slow down at a rapid speed, down to 25mph in a blink of an eye. I stepped on the gas peddle again and the car started to shake and rattle it also was jolting forward. As I was pulling off the side of the high way the car again jumped forward causing me to clip the curb with the passenger side and scratch the door. It was only after I shut the car off and restarted it that any of the warning lights came on. …”
