Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

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.

Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.

InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.

Filed May 7, 2008

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 KOMFORT TRAVEL TRAILER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BACK SLIDER OF THE TRAILER DID NOT SEAL CORRECTLY. HE NOTICED THAT WHEN IT RAINED OR WHEN HE WASHED THE TRAILER, THE INTERIOR WOULD BECOME SOAKED. SOMEONE SHOWED HIM THAT HE COULD SEAL IT WITH BARS, BUT THE CONTACT DID NOT WANT TO DO THAT SINCE HE FIGURED IT WAS A FAILURE WITH THE TRAILER. HE CONSULTED THE MANUFACTURER AND WAS INFORMED THAT HE WOULD RECEIVE A CALLBACK. HE NEVER RECEIVED A CALLBACK. THE DEALER ATTEMPTED TO REPAIR THE FAILURE SIX TIMES, BUT IT STILL PERSISTS. THE MILEAGE WAS NOT APPLICABLE.
