Example complaints

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

“Backing out of a parking space, the car automatically stopped as it should when approaching a curb. When I put the car back in drive and let off the brake, it lurched forward, I then hit the brake and it continued to accelerate for about 20 feet and hit a granite wall.”

NHTSA complaint #11655856, filed 2025-04

“Driving on a major roadway with no traffic or obstacles in front of me the car went into emergency braking mode and the engine shut down. The dashboard warning said “Engine Control Issue, Park in a Safe Place”. I could not restart the car for about 15 minutes, then it finally restarted and acted normally. The danger was the car braked violently and stopped in the middle lane of a busy street and I was unable to restart or move the car for about 15 minutes.”

NHTSA complaint #11618882, filed 2024-10

“Car has collision detection and remedy system that detects for impending collision and activates braking. Incident occurred when the car in front abruptly brakes and my car detected collision and applied brakes, however, the brakes were not fully applied and would not completely stop to avoid colliding with the rear end of the car. Most importantly, the car would not respond to me pushing the brakes. I tried a couple of times in the short time before I had to turn into the next lane to evade collision. Luckily there were no car next to me. …”

“When the forward collision warning activates, the braking pedal loses its effectiveness and causes the car to brake much more slowly than it should, which actually increases the chance of a collision occurring. This has happened multiple times to me in the past few weeks. It is a very dangerous problem.”

NHTSA complaint #11736999, filed 2026-05

“My car has been repaired six times. Now there is also ACC cruise control, which will not brake but accelerate automatically When driving with both hands on the steering wheel, a warning will be issued. When driving without both hands on the steering wheel, no warning will be issued Unable to set charging Charging mileage capacity software has been tampered with There are many more questions..............
