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.
While driving brakes overheated, causing consumer to crash. Took vehicle to dealer, and dealer said that brakes overheated. Mechanic said that in stop and go situations brakes will overheat. Consumer stated that this was very scary, and was concerned that could not stop a vehicle.
Whenever brakes are applied, would hear a loud noise, like clunking or banging sound. After brakes are applied, vehicle would fail to stop or slow down right away. Went through an intersection due to no braking power.
