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.
Transmission will not shift out of park. Brakes make loud noise and often it is difficult to stop. Dome light and door lights donot work.struts and springs are bad. Makes loud noise. Starter had to be replaced. Would not start intermittently.
It started with 2 to 3 tries to start the car. We were keeping up with the routine maintenance but the problem progressed to taking as much as 4 to 5 tries to start the engine, it would crank but not kick. We took it to the dealer 4 times. They said the starter worn out due to repetitive attempts to start the vehicle. Just recently, we had a new started put in for approximately $4000 for using a car for 3 years. Now the car still gives problems in starting though much less, for example 1 out 10. It also hesitates while driving steady high speed (55-65 mph) on the highway.
