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 cable engaged by itself sporadically. Also excessive wear of brake pads, 3 sets of pads wore out from 8,000 miles to 48,000 miles of wear/ rotors were replaced due to defective hub. Also, 2 brake sensors and 2 sets of brake calipers were replaced. Dealer notified, and most repairs and labor was done under warranty, other repairs were done at consumer's cost.
Power steering keeps fluctuating between feeling tight and sloppy. At certain points the steering wheel seems to be pulled from my grasp, and oversteering occurs. Steering also sometimes makes a moaning noise. Also, brakes need to be replaced every 20,000 miles. Last time I had brakes replaced at dealer, I had to return 5 times to have them corrected. I was told shims broke off the front pads and were binding. All I know is that I could see the rotors glowing blue and the brakes smelled like they were burning, they were also making a horrible grinding noise when they were warm.
