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.
Tensioner that keeps belt tight sheared off causing loss of belt tension and loss of power stearing. Lucky that car was in driveway at the time. (engine was at idle). Tensioner fell to the driveway. Was putting grand babies in the car in preparation for making a trip. Could have been a catastrophe if the event had happened a few minutes later while driving at highway speed.
