Example complaints

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

“The brake light on the dash came on for a second while accelerating from a stop. The problem has progressively gotten worse. The light now comes on and stays on the whole time you accelerate but as soon as you let off the gas pedal the light goes out. This now happens every time you accelerate from a stop and the light stays on until you let off the gas.”
