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.
Without warning the cruise control stuck and increased in speed over about two miles. He tried to stop the car, and it would not slow down. Driver burned up the brakes trying to stop, and crashed into a house. The speed censor wires burned. Manufacturer sent an inspector to look at the car, and he indicated because of wheel bearing problem he could not drive it. They never looked at the cruise control, and they said there was nothing wrong with the car. Caller took someone from dealership out in car and it happened again.
Right side front wheel hub needed to be replaced a 3rd time D/T bearing wear. Mechanic felt that the number of replacements in this short period of time was not common. Suggested that I report to GM. Phoned GM, took report. Stated that this was not a recall-able issue.
