Complaints on fileComplaints 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.

ONCE ENGINE WAS WARMED UP, VEHICLE STALLED AT STOPLIGHTS TWICE AND ONCE WHEN STARTING TO MOVE AFTER A STOP (WHEN IN AN INTERSECTION). OTHER TIMES WHEN STOPPED. IDLE SPEED DROPPED BELOW 1400, UNDER WHICH IT STALLS, AND IT WAS DIFFICULT TO REV THE ENGINE TO PREVENT STALLING SINCE THERE IS NO NEUTRAL GEAR, SO REVVING MORE THAN SLIGHTLY CAN MAKE THE VEHICLE MOVE. *TR

2005 YAMAHA MAJESTY 400CC SCOOTER STALLING IN TRAFFIC. ENGINE WAS WARM, COMING TO A STOP. ENGINE STALLED AROUND 5-10MPH. THIS IS THE 5TH TIME SINCE NEW. CONDITION VERY SERIOUS, AS I WAS ALMOST RUN OVER BY TRAFFIC DUE TO SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER/DRIVE. THIS IS A LAWSUIT FOR SURE. ON A VERY SMALL YAMAHA SCOOTER FORUM, THERE ARE ALREADY 38 OTHER RIDERS WITH THIS EXACT SAME SCOOTER THAT HAS STALLED AT LEAST ONCE. HTTP://MAJESTYUSA.COM/FORUMS/VIEWTOPIC.PHP?T=486&POSTDAYS=0&POSTORDER=ASC&START=0. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS COMPLAINT I'M FILING. I ALMOST GOT SERIOUSLY INJURED OR LOST MY LIFE YESTERDAY DUE TO THIS ISSUE. SINCERELY, THOMAS *TR

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.
