Example complaints

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

“While driving on a rural paved road our car could not avoid a pothole due to oncoming traffic. The impact of the pothole was severe, the car almost wrecked. The pothole was not huge and the car was only going 35 to 40 MPH. After pulling to the side of the road to determine damage, it was decided there was none and we continued with the short trip, and then back home. The following day while driving on the interstate, we discovered there was a severe shimmy in the drive train. After the weekend, we took the car to the dealer. …”
