Example complaints

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

“I was driving on the freeway in southern california heading to san diego during evening rush hour traffic. The traffic had come to a complete stop and as traffic was starting again as I pressed the accelerator the car engine began to sputter. There were no dashboard warning lights or indicators to give us any information on what was going on with the car. I only knew that I had no engine power. The gasoline gauge showed that I had about half a tank of gas left. We tried to restart the engine a couple of time. The engine would sputter and then die. …”
