Example complaints

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

“During normal driving when turning or changing lanes and trying to accelerate rapidly to merge into moving traffic, the truck will stop responding via accelerator completely. The traction control is on, but not active during this effect. Basically anytime I accelerate rapidly from a stop the truck does not respond and leaves me dead in the water.”

NHTSA complaint #10605759, filed 2014-06, 14,600 miles
