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.
Emergency brake failed to work properly when engaged. Vehicle would be moving. Also, fuse was replaced twice/ air came through the hatchback & doors/ muffler kept making clunking noise/bumper has been replaced 3 times, and tires would lose traction when the brakes were applied.
Lights: Life span of tail lights is much shorter than expected. Emergency brake lever: When applying emergency brake, a loud "pop" is heard and the sound of a spring (normally, theres a clicking sound and the lever is raised). Lever moves to a much higher position than normal. If the emergency brake is released, then re-engaged, it works properly. Failures are not predictable.
