Owner-reported complaints filed with NHTSA, grouped by component

Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints 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.

TWICE MY CAR HAS LOST ENGINE POWER. THE FIRST TIME THE DEALER REPAIRED SOME WIRING AND MOST RECENTLY MY CAR LOST POWER IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC IN DALLAS (SCARY!) BUT I WAS ABLE TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE DEALER. THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES WERE ALSO OUT DUE TO THIS SAME PROBLEM, SO THE BRAKES DID NOT FAIL BUT I HAD TO PUMP THEM TO WORK. THE DEALER NOW SAYS I NEED TO REPLACE THE THROTTLE BODY, SENSOR AND FILTER.
