Example complaints

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

“At night,especially on a very dark road, my headlights, especially in the low beam mode, severely restrict my vision. I can only view the road by looking through the lower part of the windshield. The view through the upper part is totally dark as if obstructed by an object. I am concerned that this is a dangerous safety issue and it places myself and others at risk of death or serious injury. I have seen this issue reported by others online and I am uncomfortable with the fact that NHTSA has not informed me of this problem nor has taken any action to correct it.”

“This complaint is for all cars. When driving in heavy rain it is important to turn on headlights in order for the taillights to illuminate. Almost no one does this anymore due to drl and automatic headlights. During a recent very heavy rainstorm it was almost impossible to see cars ahead of me, almost resulting in a collision. It should be mandatory that the taillights come on anytime the wipers are active. This is serious.”

“All flashers stopped working in vehicle including hazard at 39,000 miles but makes the noise as if your signals are on. Checked fuses and it is not a fuse so it must be faulty equipment. The heated mirrors have not worked since day 1, I thought the car did not come with them until I saw the fuse when checking the signal lights.”
