This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The brake system on this car is not vented properly and thus overheats under heavy braking, resulting in excessive wear, melting of electronics, and potentially catastrophic failure which could result in injury or death. I know a number of people with this same model car who have had similar issues, and I have read reports of people across the us with the same problem. In my case I was on a closed circuit driving at a high-performance driving school and the brakes failed without warning because the pad sensor warning system had failed and the excessive heat wore through the brake pads very quickly.
