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.
Excessive white smoke out of exhaust, especially with acceleration. Smoke has a foul odor also. Can hear a knocking sound in engine on deceleration (similar to bad wheel bearing hums), only does it if turbo is over 150-200 psi, but will do it every single time. 'drive to clean exhaust' displayed on dash. Completed recommended drive cycle (over 30mph for at least 20 minutes, I drove for 45 mins) and message still appears. "wrench" symbol displayed on dash. Per owner's guide the rtt displays when engine has defaulted to "limp-home" operation or when transmission problem has been detected.. the light comes on every time vehicle is driving now, and stays on entire time.
