WAS LEAVING FREEWAY AND WENT TO HIT THE BRAKES AND HAD NO TRACTION. HAD SMELLED A LIQUID, WHICH IN RETROSPECT SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN COOLANT. MISSED HITTING OTHER VEHICLES, BUT THE CAR WAS IN A SINGLE CAR ACCIDENT - VEHICLE DAMAGE WAS EXCESSIVE AND THE CAR IS NOT REPAIRABLE. I WAS SERIOUSLY INJURED WITH MULTIPLE BROKEN BONES, FACIAL LACERATIONS, BRUISES, ETC. ORIGINALLY THOUGHT THAT THE BRAKES HAD FAILED, BUT LOSS OF TRACTION WOULD DUPLICATE THE EVENT - BASICALLY SMELLED COOLANT.

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.
