Example complaints

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

“Traveling north on 495 in massachusetts on my way home from work at approximately 70 MPH in heavy traffic, my car started losing speed. I pushed harder on the gas pedal, but it kept slowing down. I immediately turned my blinker on and pulled to the slow lane, thinking I may be able to get off the highway at the next exit. I was able to pull to the side of the road almost into the breakdown lane. My car stalled. I was at the turn off for the exit - in heavy traffic. I called aaa for assistance. A state police officer stopped and set up flares to help avoid a collision. …”
