Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Brakes made loud grinding noise, have had brake pads/liners replace 3 times in the last several months. Problem will not resolve. Brake pedal becomes mushy and ABS has failed several times. Seat belts lock and stay locked at the slightest braking pressure and/or vehicle speed and do not release for several minutes. This is a serious problem that no one seems to want to address.”
NHTSA complaint #10205087, filed 2007-10, 15 miles“Accidental emergency brake activation. Only one wheel locked up that on passenger side causing the vehicle to spin out of control into a guardrail. Also, airbags did not deploy and seatbelt restraints allowed upper body to move freely into interior components.”
NHTSA complaint #10229980, filed 2008-06, 48,500 miles“While driving on flat road, the vehicle did not accelerate over 50-60 MPH. The dealership was unable to duplicate the problem. The consumer purchased the vehicle with what she thought was minor cosmetic problems then they started to get worse as time went on, there was a dragging which came from the rear interior, the seat belt holders rattled, the leather seats had sink holes where the batting was coming from the leather, and there was a loud roar coming from the engine.”
