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 OWN A 2001 CHEVY IMPALA & A 2001 CHEVY TAHOE. I HAD CLUNKING NOISES COMING FORM THE STEERING. I TOOK THE IMPALA TO THE DEALER, THEY SAID IT WAS THE STEERING SHAFT AND THAT THEY'VE BEEN HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MANY OTHER CUSTOMERS. NOW I HAVE THE SAME STEERING/CLUNKING NOISE WITH MY TAHOE. ONE OF EMPLOYEES TOLD ME THEIR ON BACK ORDER FOR THE SAME PART FOR UP TO A 3 MONTH WAITING PERIOD. SO FROM MY EXPERIENCE, TWO VEHICLES, THE SAME COMPANY, THE SAME PROBLEM. THERE'S DEFINITELY A DEFECT AND I THINK THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL A.S.A.P. FOR THIS STEERING SHAFT. *AK

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
