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.
While driving approximately 65 mph on hwy, hybrid system failure alert turned on. No other indicators on. Engine temp was normal. Attempted to pull over after a few miles and car seized up, smoke was billowing from engine compartment. Small flames visible through grill and within minutes entire engine compartment engulfed in flames. No prior problems except that about 6 weeks earlier the check engine light illuminated. I took to the dealer and after running complete engine diagnostic, dealer attributed problem to a loose gas cap. After that incident, the check engine light had not reappeared. I had the engine oil changed at the dealer 4 days prior to incident. Car had approximately 28,000 miles.
