Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“While driving the driver's seat back moves backward, sometimes causing the driver to lose control of the vehicle. The console controls for the window were positioned at the center instead of at the dashboard and were inconvenient both for the driver and passenger. Placing an object on the center console also changes the control of the side view mirrors.”
