Example complaints

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

“The vehicle has an annoying proclivity to hesitate (sometimes for as long as 3 or 4 seconds) between the time the accelerator pedal is depressed and the time the engine responds. Under certain circumstances (e.g., crossing a lane of high speed traffic) the delay could be very dangerous and even fatal. It has been doing this since it was new, and it happens only when decelerating, not coming to a complete stop, and then attempting to accelerate. …”
