Example complaints

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

“While driving with the cruise control on the vehicle twice failed to brake when brakes were applied. The second time I was exiting the freeway and could not stop at the end of the ramp. I tried to down shift and turn right on the inersecting highway when my car spunout doing a 450 degree spin in front of a semi in the other lane which narrowly missed me and then I slid down the embankment on the other side of the overpass and finally came to a stop. …”
