I PURCHASED FOUR OF THESE VEHICLES AND CAN NOT KEEP THEM ON THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE SHAKES VIOLENTLY AND THE VEHICLE HAS TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP BEFORE THIS "DEATH SHAKE" STOPS. WE HAVE SPENT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TRYING TO FIGURE THIS OUT. WATKINS SPRINGS (ALBANY, NEW YORK) HAS INFORMED ME THAT GM REMOVED THE SHOCK STABILIZER AS A COST SAVINGS MEASURE. THE VEHICLES ARE DEATH TRAPS AND THIS NEEDS TO BE BROUGHT TO SOMEONES ATTENTION BEFORE SOMEONE DOES DIE TRYING TO GET THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. *TR

7 of 7 complaints, reproduced as filed.
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
