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.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 REXHALL AMERICAN CLIPPER. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE IN OCTOBER OF 2007 FOR THE VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL. THE SPEED CONTROL WAS NOT DISCONNECTED DUE TO THE DRIVING DISTANCE TO THE DEALER; HOWEVER, THE DEALER ADVISED THE CONTACT TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY UNTIL THE PARTS BECOME AVAILABLE. THE DEALER DID NOT KNOW WHEN THE PARTS WOULD ARRIVE TO PERFORM THE COMPLETE RECALL REPAIR. THE CONTACT FEELS THAT THE WAIT TIME IS TOO LENGTHY. THERE HAD BEEN NO FAILURE TO DATE. THE RECALL NUMBER WAS UNKNOWN. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 18,000. UPDATED 4/16/08 *CN

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.
