Owner reports filed with NHTSA about this vehicle, newest first and reproduced as filed. They are unverified accounts: one proves nothing, and a pattern across many is the thing worth reading. Back to the full 2017 record →
TRANSMISSION STICKS IN 3RD GEAR ON LOW SPEED 30 - 35 MPH. RPM STAYS AT 3000 - 4000 . DUE TO THAT IT STARTS TO MAKE VERY LOUD NOISE. IF CAR IS NOT STOPPED AND COOLED FOR SOME TIME (30 MIN) IT CAN LEAD TO OVERHEATING AND PROBABLY DESTROYING THE CLUTCH.
WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH IN CITY TRAFFIC AN ERROR LIGHT INDICATING "GEAR BOX FAULT" APPEARED FOLLOWED BY NUMEROUS OTHER WARNINGS. THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF AND COASTED TO A STOP. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE, AFTER 26 DAYS IN SERVICE AND 80 MILES DRIVEN BY A SERVICE TECHNICIAN THE DEALER CONTINUES TO TELL ME THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. THEY INDICATED THAT THE COMPUTER REPORTS INDICATE A MAJOR PROBLEM OCCURED BUT THEY ARE UNABLE TO RECREATE IT.
NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
