Example complaints

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

“On 6/2/2014 I was on my way to work. As I pulled out my dirt road onto the main highway, my check engine light came on and my car automatically shut off. Mind you my car was still rolling, but I manage to pull on the side of the road and shut the car off. I try to step on gas peddle but car would not accelerate. So I waited a few mintues on side of road before attempting to re-start my car. Once I got it cranked, I drove 10 to 15 miles to get my car back in my yard. At this point in time, I cant drive it until it gets fix.”

NHTSA complaint #10103302, filed 2004-12, 8,100 miles

“I have a 2004 Toyota camery purchased in april/04. Like many others, my car drifts to the left into other lanes. This is a major safety issue as this could result in accidents and injuries. The car will not drive straight on any type of road surface. From various readings, there is a problem with the springs. This problem has existed for several years now and Toyota has been ignoring this problem. Please force Toyota to fix this problem!”

NHTSA complaint #10078544, filed 2004-06
