Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I parked my truck and turned it off. Went inside and about 15 minutes later my truck rolled down a hill and went across a busy route 15 . The truck was still in park and the engine was off and the wheel was still locked at the bottom. It ripped the plow off my truck. I'm having a hard time with the dealership and my insurance is giving me a run around. They don't wanna cover my plow and wanna use used parts on it. I don't see why I should have to eat the damage. I did nothing wrong and I'm paying for it. Not right. I'm self-employed and I'm losing money every day. …”
