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.
0
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.
0
Crash or fire reportedComplaints whose submitter recorded that a crash or a fire occurred. These are the reporter's own answers on the NHTSA form, not verified findings.

The component is the vehicles radio system. When the vehicle is started with the key, the radio immediately comes on without pushing the button. The radio is turned off manually before turning the vehicle off. This is a safety complaint and a safety distraction when driving in reverse or foward. I have almost hit other people and objects, because you dont expect the radio to come on without manually turning it on. The vehicle was seen at the deallership, and the problem confirmed. This vehicle was purchased brand new. The problem was noticed a few months after the purchase, but it was not being driven daily. No warning lights or messages have been noted. Now as a daily driver this safety concern exist, every time the vehicle is started
