WHILE APPLYING THE EMERGENCY BRAKE, WHILE PARKING ON A SLIGHT DECLINE. THE NEXT MORNING, WHEN THE CAR WAS STARTED, SMOKE FILLED THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. UPON INVESTIGATION, I DISCOVERED THAT THE WIRE FROM THE EMERGENCY BRAKE SWITCH SHORTED AND MELTED OFF THE INSULATION, CAUSING ADDITIONAL WIRING PROBLEMS. THE HEADLIGHT WILL NOT TURN OFF. THE HIGH-BEAM SWITCH AND THE ON/OFF SWITCH BOTH CAUSE THE LIGHTS TO GO TO HIGH-BEAMS. SO FAR, I HAVE DISCOVERED THE DAMAGED WIRES, UP TO THE FIREWALL, IN THE PROCESS OF SEPARATING AND REPLACING THE DAMAGED WIRE(S).*AK

Reading this record

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.
