Example complaints

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

“While washing my car, my finger slipped into a hole surrounded by metal and sliced my finger. The holes should either be capped or filed down since this is an area right near the rear hatch release and license plate bulb.”

NHTSA complaint #10638458, filed 2014-09, 800 miles

“Was driving on interstate with cruise control set to 70mph. Heard a loud pop (sounded like a gunshot). Moonroof glass had exploded out from the center of the glass. Edge of glass was pushed out like it had blown out from the inside. Sunshade was open. No traffic and nothing hit the roof before the glass exploded. Temp inside the car was around 65 degrees. Temp outside was in the mid to high 40's.”
