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.
On-going / intermittent problem with transmission; whenever slowing down from highway speed, transmission would remain in 3rd gear and cause engine to stall out. Dealer notified.
While driving at low speeds accelerator would become hard. Transmission would jump from neutral into drive. Then a loud noise, like a bang, would be heard. Transmission would reengage itself into drive. The problem is intermittent. Took to dealer to have transmission overhauled.
At very low speeds, or after releasing the foot brake, and then accelerating briskly, the entire drive train goes into neutral. The engine speeds up, but no vehicle movement. You must stop, or coast until the drive line violently "clunks" back into gear. This has happened several times, twice nearly causing accidents. This is very dangerous, and I would like to know if other similar vehicles have the same problem. It has just been reported to the manufacturer, so they have not had time to respond.
When applying the brakes pedal gets stuck, causing the brakes to hesitate. When putting the gear in park the vehicle hesitates. Consumer doesn't know whenever the vehicle is going to move, and the dealer can't determine the problem.
