Example complaints

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

“Upon purchasing a used Pontiac VIBE I noticed the rear wiper was inoperable. I checked the fuse and it did not require replacement. I replaced the motor with a refurbished one from an auto parts store, yet the rear wiper is still inoperable. A rattling noise is also coming from the roof of the vehicle. I will take it to a gmc dealership for diagnosis.”
