“Yo me desplazaba en mi vehiculo una FAV4 2024, cuando impacte con una malta de palma, chocando mi vehiculo de frente, lo cual las bolsa de aire no abrieron y choque contra el guía porque el cinturón de seguridad tampoco respondio lo cual me ocasionó lecciones de en la cara y la lengua”
NHTSA complaint #11642140, filed 2025-02“Airbags, seats, and headrest all failed. State Farm insurance currently has the vehicle. I do not know if the people has been inspected by anybody. The vehicle had no warning lamps message or other symptoms of problems or failure before the collision. I was traveling in the far left lane when traffic came to abrupt stop and I was able to stop 10 to 15 ft from the vehicle in front of me. Two vehicles in my line behind me swerved out of the way. Then a semi truck with a trailer rear-ended me. The front end of the semi truck struck the rear end of my vehicle getting lodged inside my vehicle. …”

A police report was filed. …”
NHTSA complaint #11697363, filed 2025-11, 9,000 miles“This was a rental car. The center rear seat harness is locked so it cannot be used. Pulling lightly, or with any degree of resistance, will not allow the shoulder strap to be loosed so it can be used. As a result a passenger cannot be seated in the center of the rear bench seat. Also, the cover assembly for the rear cargo area was installed incorrectly so it cannot be pulled out and secured to the slots. It appears this was a dealership prep mistake.”
