Example complaints

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

“While driving posted speed on interstate 71 southbound from cleveland towards columbus ohio, my car downshifted by itself and kept slowing down. I was able to get on the shoulder of the freeway when I noticed that the car had stalled. I attempted to restart the car. It would crank normally but would not start. I checked all the fluids, they were at operating levels. I performed a visual check under the car and hood for fluid leaks. There were none. I called a nearby (40 miles) toyota dealer who dispatched a tow truck to pick us up and bring the car to their repair center in delaware ohio. …”
