Example complaints

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

“I just bought this SUV hopping it would be better than my little saturn I had and more trusting. But so far it has proven not safe to put children or baby's in. The seat belts either don't iach or don't unlatch. I just had to replace my evap at 111,687 miles. I seen that other people have had the same problem and it has not yet been a recall at all. And the engine makes a chugging sound when in park while running. It sounds like it wants to die and not stay running. I notice that when I was at a gas station. …”

NHTSA complaint #10873108, filed 2016-06, 111,678 miles

“The contact stated the rear middle seatbelt would not release. While reaching down the passengers neck became entwined in the shoulder portion of the seatbelt causing minor injuries. The belt would not release therefore the seatbelt was cut. The vehicle has not been inspected and the manufacturer was not alerted.”
