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.

I WAS DRIVING ON FREEWAY IN THE CENTER LANE SWITCHED TO LEFT LANE AND CAR IMMEDIATELY AND VIOLENTLY JERKED LEFT AND I HAD TO USE STRUGGLE TO KEEP THE CAR FROM VEERING OFF THE ROAD. I HAVE GONE THROUGH 4 SETS OF TIRES CAR HAS BEEN ALIGNED 5 TIMES AND IT WILL NOT STEER STRAIGHT AND REQUIRES IMMENSE EFFORT JUST TO KEEP IT ON THE ROAD WHENEVER THE CROWN OF THE ROAD IS ON THE LEFT. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL DATING BACK TO 2008 AND IT A SAFETY AND DEFECT HAZARD. UNTIL SOMEONE GETS KILLED OR MAIMED THE MANUFACTURER WITH JUST DENY ANYTHING IS WRONG WITH THIS PARTICULAR MODEL VEHICLE. THANK YOU *TR

Too few reports in this category for a page of its own — they appear in the full complaint list.

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.
