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.
Although I had timely oil and fluid changes and inspections, the technicians reported I had oil sludge on several occasions. Without notice, in Nov, 2002, car suddenly overheated. Symptoms were smoking and leaky radiator. During inspection tech noted: "vehicle has alot of sludge in valve cover/ oil drains slowly & over flows w/filled too fast."
