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.
Intermittent problem with the courtesy lights and trunk cargo lights staying on while driving or parking. Blower motor would come on and go off while the switch are in the off mode or in the on mode. Dealer and manufactrer were not notified at this time. The ABS brakes lock up on wet pavement.
ABS failed when pedal held down in rapid stop. Pulses and then drops for several seconds before reengaging. Has almost caused accidents many times during entire time I have owned truck. Technicians can find no information on why this might occur.
Brakes lock up only during wet road conditions. Vehicle been to dealer's repair shop on three occasions, and problem still occurring. Please provide any further details on this matter.
While driving on a narrow two-lane road, I proceeded to pass another vehicle. I accelerated and kicked the truck into passing gear. The throttle went to the wide open position and would not release. I used the brakes to fight the out of control engine and vehicle. I proceeded down the curvy for 3 to four miles until I got to a pullout place where I applied the brakes so hard that it killed the engine. The brakes were down to no pads, were very hot, and cooked out grease that caught on fire. I restarted the engine at which time the throttle was no longer stuck in the wide open position.
Passenger's front wheel locks up which causes brake lock up, and may result in a crash. Been to dealer several times. First time it was the rear brakes. Currently, dealer cannot determine the problem.
At least 12 sets of brakes put on vehicle"4 in uder 9000 miles, resulting in 2 accidents" 3 times at turning rotors/engine rebuilt at 52000 miles still with loss of porwer. 2 egr valves/2 wiper switches/syncronizers/2 slave cylinders on transmission and oil leak. All problems still exist. Engine idles high enough that the use of the gas pedal is not needed for intown driving. Speeds of 45mph can be obtained before hitting pedal.
Consumer was driving on the street, approx. 30-35 mph, needed to apply brakes when vehicle braking system locked up without warning, causing vehicle to vibrate/shake/ and out of control. Dealer notified and informed consumer that the brakes was defective and repair at the cost to consumer.
Anti lock brakes continually lock up causing loss of control, vehicle went into ditch on one occasion, brakes can not be repaired to the lack of replacement parts.
