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 contact stated while driving 15 mph and making a turn, a clanking noise came from the steering wheel column. The vehicle was taken to a dealership who determined a lack of lubrication, however the noise persisted. The vehicle was taken to an independent certified mechanic who determined that the low steering shaft, bushes and links needed to be replaced. The noise recurred after the repair. The contact expressed concern due to the uncertainty created by the noise. The manufacturer had not been contacted.
