Example complaints

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

“New cars with the headlights that come on when the car is started. On 10/12/2008 I found three cars driving with just the front driving lights on at night in lexington, ky. The new cars have the front driving lights that are turned on when the car is started. Owners are seeing the head lights on and think that they have turned the head lights on already. When they have not. This has owners driving at night without tail lights on. Again, the problem is that the tail lights don't turn on with the front lights automatically , and owners are driving without tail lights in the dark. …”
