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.
The dogbone that holds the engine, broke and the engine well down and I have to get it repaired, it affected the bracket transmittion mounting, the axle and had to replace the mounts. It costs me $1,112.41 to repair. My car was in motion when the check motor mount failed.
The horn is not able to be heard in traffic. I was on the freeway driving behind my sister. Needing to get her attention as I noticed she had a flat on her car, I was honking the horn on my Cube. She did not hear the horn at all. If a person in a car can not hear the horn I do not believe that a semi truck or such type vehicle will be able to hear my horn either and a serious accident would not be avoidable since the horn would not be heard. Also the handling of my car in any windy condition is not safe. If you are driving faster than 30 mph and it is windy or a big gust of wind sweeps by I better be holding on to the steering wheel tight with both hands. I have been on the freeway going 55 mph, the wind has not been that bad but the car has been moving all over the place and I have to hold on to the wheel with both hands and feel that I really don't have control over the vehicle. I have a teenager that has just started driving and do no way feel safe letting her take this vehicle out. I do not even feel safe in this vehicle anymore.
