Example complaints

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

“We fixed the car the first time the fuel was leaking, and it was a big spray in the trunk, after that we had trouble with turning it on and it staying on. Now the car about november '05 it started smelling like gas again. It is now may 9 2006 and we took it to get a diagnostics test in march '06 and they weren't too sure what the mishap is. We are really concerned I am currently 2 months pregnant and I will pretty soon need to carry my child in this vehicle but I am really scared of what could go wrong. I constantly get rides from my mother, because of the car dying on me.”
