Example complaints

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

“This was a rental car. In the rain, the lane assistance would try to correct the vehicle even when the vehicle was in its lane. It was like it didn’t see the lane markings in the rain. The car was wrecked in the rain but had other incidents previously while driving in the rain. The adaptive cruise control also seemed to malfunction when I set it, it started going faster than what I had set it.”

NHTSA complaint #11745459, filed 2026-06
