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.
My wife was turning vehicle around in driveway when steering broke loose resulting in a complete loss of steering control. Fortunately this did not happen on the highway at high speeds. Mechanic informed me that cause might have been, "a bad batch of locktite." Service manager later told me the bolt was tight and that this sort of thing should not happen.
One end of the track bar, which allows the front axle to move from side to side, has worn out causing vehicle to wander. Also a couple of tie rods are wearing out.
