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.

Vehicle has intermitent loss of power which can occur at highway speeds. Vehicle has been serviced five times; yet, the problem is recurring. The engine makes a ticking noise, and power drops to about 35 mph. Dealer replaced fuel filter, fuel pump, fuel guage, O2 sensor. This time, the dealer insists that it must be a clogged catalytic converter.

Vehicle idled at about 3000 RPM for no reason. No engine check light came on, and no faulty codes were detected. Consumer had air control valve replaced, but it did not fix the defect. Problem still exists.
Consumer has been having engine trouble since the vehicle was purchased. Passenger's seats rocks forward and back. Manufacturer provided no satisfaction.
