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.
Engine stalled & power brakes and steering shut down at 75 miles per hour. Occurred on interstate 40, half way between needles & barstow. Outside temperature was approximately 103 degrees. Lucky to gain access to right shoulder of highway before being rear ended by other traffic.
The fuel pump failed at speed, causing a loss of power steering and power brakes. Driver was forced to maneuver off of I-70 with a dead engine and without power steering or brakes. The sudden loss of power and control nearly caused an accident.
