Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I drove from richmond ca to los angeles round trip. On my return trip, I heard a loud sound and when I saw my passenger's side mirror, it looked like my rear bumper was going to fall. The bumper was flapping vigorously. Soon after, my passenger's side was doing the same thing. I still had 100 miles to go on my trip. The rear bumper seems poorly designed and not secure. I do not trust this car on long distance trips. I'm a disappointed buyer.”
NHTSA complaint #11128373, filed 2018-09, 32,000 miles“Was in a car accident in december of 2018 and air bags didn't deploy. Went to the dealership and they said they couldn't help. Entire sensor of the front were torn off and still didn't deploy. My sister was seriously injured. She was driving and crashed at 35mph on a city streer and crash into a stop light and sign because someone took a red on her green and she swerved to not hit anyone.”
