Complaints on fileComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

I BOUGHT CLEAR FLOOR MATS FOR MY CAR, BRAND = KRAGAN 8826 FLOOR MAT CLEAR - MODEL NO = PA 6212492. THE FLOOR MAT IS VERY SLIPERY ON THE CAR CARPET. IT DOES NOT GRIP TO THE FLOOR. YOU CAN EASILY SLIP AND FALL WHILE GETING IN THE CAR SINCE FLOOR MAT SKIDS EASILY. I BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED. THE DESIGN HAS VERY POOR GRIP SINCE IT IS MORE ROUNDED RATHER THAN POINTED FOR IT TO GRIP ON THE CARPET. THERE MAY BE SEVERAL KINDS OF FLOOR MATS THAT DO NOT HAVE GRIP BECAUSE IT IS TOO ROUNDED. I BOUGHT IT ON JUNE 15TH AND THE MATS JUST KEEP ON SLIDING WHILE GETTING IN THE CAR.*AK
