Example complaints

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

“While driving on a limited access highway at highway speed, the passenger bumped the transmission shift control with his leg, moving the vehicle from automatic mode into manual mode, causing the vehicle to shift into 3rd gear, and causing a corresponding abrupt slowdown of the vehicle without actuation of the brake lights to warn following vehicle of the slowdown. A following vehicle had to brake hard to avoid a collision with my Scion XB, while I corrected the situation by shifting the transmission control back into automatic mode. …”
