Example complaints

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

“I rented this car for 1 week, when I would go to apply the brake my foot would slip off of the brake pedal. This would happen to me every 4th or 5th time I went to slow down or stop. I have never had to be so careful in any other vehicle I have ever driven, I'm 58 years old and know how to drive..the pedal is quite small and maybe at the wrong position for safe application. Thank you for your concern.”
