- 2017 Hyundai Tucson: hesitates when starting from a stop (45 complaints) Bought a 2017 Tucson night edt. on 12-05-2019 with very low miles 16,500 can't go wrong ! right ? Well looks like I'm having the same problem as everyone else on here. When I come to a stop and barely start to push on the gas pedal the car hesitates and sputters till I push the pedal further. This is extremely annoying I am almost ready get rid of it and get another Kia Soul that I had before this that shifted smooth as silk. My 1996 24year old Toyota Camry shifts smoother than this new technology transmission. ... read more »

- 2019 Subaru Forester: windshield chips easily (3 complaints) 3rd chip, same thing, driving on my local road hear a click noise and sure enough a chip in the windshield. Now I'm upset this is the third time in in 6 weeks (actually this timeline is shorter but don't remember exact dates) so first I call my dealer and ask if they have any complaints they say no. Now I call Subaru direct and that was the equivalent to having my teeth pulled? WOW! what a painful experience? After being on hold for 30 minutes I finally got to speak to a real person who had the intellect level of ... read more »
- 2019 Subaru Forester: windshield cracked (1 complaints) 4th time is the charm, after warming my car up I'm backing up my driveway and hear the traditional click..that's when I cringed and looked at the passenger side of the windshield and sure enough there it is a 16" crack and this time it will need to be replaced (see photo). there is no way you can tell me that this windshield is/was not defective from the factory, after 3 previous chips I no longer believe it is bad luck. I'm afraid to call Subaru after the last adventure calling them, so I guess I will have to ... read more »

- 2015 Subaru Forester: tie rod failure (1 complaints) My steering started to feel a bit loose and I noticed a loud CLUNK when going over small bumps or around corners. Sure enough, one of the tie rods had failed. It's not an uncommon problem given the state of our local roads, but I recently had my alignment done and this tie rod just threw everything out of whack. A new tie rod and alignment is just more money than I was hoping to spend right about now. But any problem that affects steering isn't something you should ignore. I just hope it's not a sign of things ... read more »

- 2016 Chevrolet Tahoe: A/C does not blow cold (5 complaints) First time this year I had turned on the a/c. The air coming out was really hot and I checked to make sure the adjustments were correct. They were. I called the auto dealer where I bought my vehicle and they scheduled my appointment and came and picked it up and brought it back to me. They told me they had to replace the condenser. We had bought the extended warranty so I was glad of that at least. We still had to pay $200 dollars even with the extended warranty. Then I googled online the problem and saw that ... read more »
