Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I was driving home and my vehicle suddenly stopped at 30mph entering a intersection with train tracks. No warning at all other than a quick light on the dash and engine completely shut off and would not restart. Driver behind me luckily did not hit me and I somehow was able to coast my vehicle into a driveway lot of a gas station on the corner. After coasting into the lot I was unable to start my vehicle at that point I became stranded, luckily with no accident. …”
