Example complaints

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

“The power sunroof on my 2001 Saturn sc-2 was making a grinding noise when I opened it and when it was closing. Yesterday, while driving the sunroof was stuck in the open position. The Saturn dealer charged $46.00 to diagnose the problem. They said it was the motor and this would cost about $380.00 to replace. I agreed to the charge. Then they called to say the new motor did not correct the problem. They wanted an additional $950.00 to replace a module. I told them not to do the work; that the price was too high. They said the car was old and this part always fails. …”
