Example complaints

One per model year, chosen for length and detail. Personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

2007: “Plate over back hatch just below third brake light detaches & hangs by a cable. It swings while driving & scratches the bottom of the hatch & back fender. If cable breaks while driving it will become airborne. The hatch plate hooks snapped off while the vehicle was stationary & I was opening the hatch. Now that it's broke off the car it swings while driving hanging by a cable. I have to keep it taped.”

2008: “I have newish wheels and tires. Last year I took my car into les schawb to get an alignment done on my car thinking that is what the problem was. The guy afterwards told me he fixed it as well as he could but wondered if I had hit something in the back and that's all he told me. My steering wheel shakes back and fourth rapidly when I am coming to a stop. My car can not drive straight at all either while I'm on the rode. It will pull to the left so I turn it the opposite way just a tiny bit and it pulls my car the other way very hard and it is very scary and dangerous to drive.”
