Example complaints

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

“I was involved in a rear end accident. The person who hit me was going approximately 50 MPH. I was stationary waiting to make a left turn. The front drivers seat broke causing the back portion to slam into the rear seat and the bottom to completely raise up. As a result I had no control over the vehicle causing some secondary damage. If there had been a person in the back seat they would of had catastrophic injuries as they would have been crushed by the driver seat. The airbags were emitting a gas but the airbags never deployed. …”

NHTSA complaint #11023812, filed 2017-09, 27,000 miles

“All of the following in this review happens at all times. When in motion, stationary, all driving conditions and all times of day and night. Overhead console on truck where LED courtesy map/reading lights have issues. Light flickers and dims when on. It makes interior visibility near impossible. Upon inspecting the unit the wiring going to the lights and sun room are chaffed and pose as a fire hazard and or equipment failure if shortage occurs. Rear third brake light seal deteriorates and lets water into the cab. This can rust out flooring and causes mold issues. Ruins leather seats. …”

“The airbag warning light keeps coming on and off (along with the accompanying ding ). I think there is a short in the wiring under the driver's seat. Whenever I go over big bumps it seems to cause the issue more often.”
