Example complaints

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

“The service anti-lock brake message comes on followed by the service electronic stability control. Sometimes the forward collision warning also flashes unavailable. When this happens, if I try to use the cruise control I get another message that says cruise control unavailable. This began happening the week I picked up the truck in march and was intermittent, happening every 2nd or 3rd day. Now it happens almost every time I start the truck. I did not take the truck back to the dealer until 3 june 2020 because of the coronavirus.”

NHTSA complaint #11328098, filed 2020-06, 62 miles

“Traction control kicks on while driving on dry pavement and the truck bogs down like there isn’t any power. The truck slows down abruptly and will not speed back up without pulling to the side of the road and I have to shut it off and reset. The drive selector knob lights starts flashing and now they don’t come on at all. This has happened on 4 occasions”
