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.
In December, 2015 I was involved in a collision in which a driver didn't see that traffic had come to a complete stop on the highway and hit me from behind at a high speed (approximately 60 mph). I was in the front driver seat. The collision forced me against the seat back, which caused the entire back of my seat to break at the hinge area where the seat back and seat bottom meet. Because the seat didn't withstand the impact, it broke completely off and it was laying completely flat into the back seat. Subsequently, I was completely unsupported and my seat belt no longer worked. Fortunately, I wasn't hit a 2nd time even though I was thrown across two lanes of traffic because with no longer having a seat back or a working seat belt, I was without any protection. I do not have photos of the seat back, but the police and emergency vehicles responded and a report was filed.
