Example complaints

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

“The airbag warning light comes on without notice, and horn stops working, took to dealer who said it was the clock spring and this is a typical problem. It is a safety issue as the airbag is needed to prevent injuries. I have heard of other people being injured by this. (the 9-5 is the same as the 95 and the 952 and the AERO).”
