Example complaints

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

“Positive battery cable is corroded, including the wires connected to the battery terminal. Corrosion was a large mound when we opened hood to add washer fluid. Tried to remove corrosion and discovered the entire connection to battery terminal has disintegrated. Rigged it up with $3 part from autozone. Dealer states they've never had any such problems. Dealership has the only people that have been under the hood of my car. I am there every 5000 miles....like clockwork. Can't believe they didn't see signs of this on last visit. They want $3100 to replace the main wiring harness! …”

“Abnormal operation between accelerator and throttle. Tech tested throttle body and tests passed. Tech tested accelerator pedal and values out of range. Tech would think this could cause a DTC to set if not functioning properly but there were no codes. At random moments, the car will not accelerate. Cannot get answers. Occurs most often after idling at a light then starting to accelerate it won't move. This has occurred over the years so we have had the throttle and filter cleaned twice in the past but problem is persistent and becoming more frequent.”

“This is a solution to a vexing problem. The ghost in the ecu problem has been solved with simple inexpensive technology. It is installed on a vehicle in so cal (near disneyland), available for demonstration. Getting the word out without being overrun by media is a delicate balance, so I contacted you folks through this form. The technology is patent pending, and licensing or assigning it is the goal. Please don't condemn me for being open and honest.”
