About These NHTSA Complaints:
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 at 65 mph consumer heard a flapping sound coming from the rear of vehicle. Consumer parked on the shoulder of the highway and inspected the vehicle, discovered that rear right tire collapsed. Vehicle was taken to the dealer, who claimed that the tire was punctured which caused it to collapse. The dealer stated that the tire was probably punctured before the sidewall collapsed, but the sidewall should not have ever collapsed.
