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.
I pulled into my driveway after work and was going to park my car when I heard this crunch sound. I then noticed that the car was sitting lopsided on the rear passenger side and since then the car has been making crunching sounds. The dash lights also went out along w/the heater. It no longer blows cold air it is always hot air and the temperature is at its lowest. This all started w/a vacuum leak. The passenger side seat belt also retracted slow and now it doesn't even retract. This car seems to have one problem after another and all at once. I bought this car for my daughter cuz I wanted her to have a safe vehicle to drive for college, but it doesn't seem to be turning out that way. She is now driving my car because I don't want to have to worry about her on the road.
The driver's seat belt was inoperative. The cause is unknown at this time. The consumer hit the side of another vehicle with the front end when the seat belt did not work. The consumer's head busted the windshield and injured his back.
While the vehicle was completely stopped, another vehicle hit the rear and made the vehicle hit another vehicle that was in front. The driver and passenger air bags did not deploy. The driver seat belt did not hold the driver which caused the driver to sustain facial damage.
The passengers front safety belt is locked in place and can not be pulled from it's housing. The manufacturer was contacted and advised that the belts have a 50K miles/5 yr warranty.
Consumer states that the front seat belts buckles will not latch properly causing the consumer not to have a seat belt on while driving. Dealer notified.
