THE HEAT ON THE DRIVER SIDE WENT OUT AT APOXIMATELY 70K MILES...LUCKILY IT WAS AT THE END OF THE WINTER..NOW THIS WINTER THE HEAT WAS ONLY COMING OUT OF THE PASSENGER SIDE FOR ABOUT 2 WEEKS. NOW I HAVE NO HEAT AND IT'S 20 DEGREES. A HAT, GLOVES, AND WARM COAT IS NOT CUTTING IT. THE DEALER SHIP WANTS OVER $1000 TO FIX IT, SO NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE YET. MERRY CHRISTMAS... *NM

What owners reported
Newest filingsTHE CONSUMER STATED WHILE DRIVING AT 35 MPH THE MOTOR DROPPED OUT OF HIS VEHICLE. HE SAID IT SOUNDED AS IF HE HAD RAN OVER SOMETHING, BUT WHEN HE PULLED TO THE SIDE AND GOT OUT IT WAS A DIFFERENT STORY. HE SAID HE WALKED BACK ABOUT 10 FEET AND PICKED UP A PART, THAT LOOKED LIKE A PART OF THE ENGINE, THEN WALKED SOME MORE AND PICKED UP A PISTON RING, ALL OF THE TIME THE OIL WAS JUST RUNNING FROM THE MOTOR. THE CONSUMER BENT DOWN AND LOOKED UNDER THE VEHICLE AND THERE WAS A WHOLE IN THE BOTTOM OF THE ENGINE. *JB

Across model years
Worst on record: 2022Reading 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.
