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 Aug 21, 2014

DURING THE ASSEMBLY OF THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT, A CHIP OF ALUMINUM MAY HAVE BEEN DISLODGED AND REMAIN IN THE ABS UNIT. THE ALUMINUM CHIP MAY PREVENT NORMAL OPERATION OF THE CHECK VALVE. WHILE THE NORMAL BRAKING SYSTEM WILL REMAIN FULLY OPERATIVE, THE ALUMINUM CHIP MAY CAUSE THE ABS FUNCTION TO NOT PERFORM PROPERLY. I THE ABS FUNCTION DOES NOT PERFORM PROPERLY, UNEXPECTED TIRE SKIDDING DURING HARD OR PANIC BRAKING MAY OCCUR, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP BY PHONE AND VIA EMAIL, BUT HAVE BEEN IGNORED. *TR
