Owner-reported complaints filed with NHTSA, grouped by component

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.

A WIRE WITH A TERMINAL END NEAR THE FUEL SHUTOFF SOLENOID GROUNDED AND SHORTED OUT WHICH BLEW THE FUSE. THE SAME FUSE POWERS THE FUEL SOLENOID, THUS THE SOLENOID CLOSED, SHUTTING DOWN THE ENGINE. I WAS IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, IN A CONSTRUCTION ZONE AT THE TIME. WHEN THE ENGINE STOPPED, I BLOCKED I-75 TRAFFIC FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES UNTIL A TOW TRUCK ARRIVED. ALSO, WITH NO POWER STEERING, THE VEHICLE IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO STEER. ALSO, THE FUSE WHICH BLEW IS LABELED "IGNITION". A DIESEL ENGINE HAS NO IGNITION, THEREFOREI REQUIRED A TOW TRUCK AND TECHNICIANS TO DETERMINE THE PROBLEM.
