hazard lights on, I continued at approximately 5 mph, but the vehicle still did not stop easily when I pressed the brake pedal all the way down. This put my safety and the safety of other motorists at serious risk because I could not reliably stop the vehicle. There were no dashboard warning lights or messages and no unusual noises before or during the incident. i have never had a problem with my brakes before this either. The problem occurred suddenly. My uncle, who is a diesel mechanic, inspected the vehicle and found that the brake lines and fluids appeared to be in good condition. He suspects the brake master cylinder may be the cause, although this has not been confirmed through a formal diagnostic inspection. I have contacted the dealership and am awaiting a response to determine whether they recommend a dealership inspection or an inspection by an independent mechanic. I also contacted Carvana since that is where I got my car from a year ago and included support chat messages. The problem has not yet been formally diagnosed or reproduced by a dealership or independent service center. I am reporting this incident because the sudden loss of reliable braking created a potentially life-threatening situation. The vehicle should be available for inspection upon request, with appropriate towing arrangements.

could not find anything. I inspected my garage where the vehicle was previously parked and there was no trace of leaking coolant prior to leaving. It was towed to the dealership the next day, and they noted the vehicle was overheating driving it from the lot to the service bay. The dealer claims it failed from an impact. I went and inspected it myself expecting to see a hole in the radiator or obvious damage and couldn't find anything. I had to be assisted by a tech who used phrases like "I think it was in this area" and "near impossible place to be hit by something, but I guess it did." The "diagnostic" video points out an area the size of a tennis ball for where the alleged damage occurred- yet the damage is no where to be seen, especially what you would expect from an "impact". I've had a case open with Subaru of America for nearly three weeks with zero correspondence. There are plenty of posts in social media groups talking about radiator failures in 2022+ WRX's. These types of failures can lead to the engine overheating and locking up causing immediate loss of power and extensive damage- not to mention the level of loss of control one would experience and potential catastrophic end.

attempting to maintain normal traffic speeds. Following these issues, mechanical inspections revealed water inside the spark plug wells, a severely rusted ignition coil, and a failing catalytic converter. Firestone estimated the catalytic converter repair at approximately $5,000. The presence of water and corrosion raised concerns about possible pre-existing damage and whether the vehicle had been properly inspected before being sold. The vehicle remained in repair-related custody for approximately 29 days. Despite repeated communications with DriveTime, the mechanical problems were not satisfactorily resolved. DriveTime representatives informed me that a replacement vehicle had been approved. On [[redacted]], I returned to the dealership expecting a replacement but was informed that no suitable vehicle was available. I was left without transportation, and the dealership failed to provide a satisfactory resolution. As of October 21, 2026, I remain without a vehicle. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate the sudden loss of engine power, possible electrical or ignition system damage caused by moisture intrusion, and any similar safety complaints involving the 2017 Hyundai Tucson. My primary concern is that these mechanical failures could cause another driver to experience a dangerous loss of power while operating the vehicle, potentially resulting in a serious collision.

19,732 miles), the dealer ordered a second driveshaft. A later visit (RO [[redacted]]) again recommended axle replacement. Further axle and seal work was done on RO [[redacted]] (10/30/2025 to 11/05/2025, 22,199 miles). The problem has come back again. The vehicle has been at the dealer since about [[redacted]], now more than 50 days, with no fix or timeline. That makes at least four repair visits for the same defect, with the first two inside the first year of ownership. A recurring loose connection between the axle and the drive motor could cause sudden loss of drive power or axle failure at speed. I am asking NHTSA to investigate rear axle and drive motor defects in the 2023 ID.4. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

have to! It is dangerous for me to have to drive with 0 brake/tail lights. This car was made incorrectly and therefore should be recalled before I get rearended and hurt! Drilling holes in bottom of tail lights did not work or solve issue either.

was unsafe to drive. This is not a cosmetic rust issue. The deterioration involves critical structural areas of the vehicle and raises serious concerns about structural integrity, suspension mounting points, and the potential for component failure or loss of vehicle control. The vehicle's condition presents a significant safety hazard to its occupants and other motorists. What makes this particularly concerning is that the vehicle has only approximately 56,000 miles and was otherwise in good condition. Despite its relatively low mileage, the structural corrosion has rendered the vehicle unsafe for continued operation. The vehicle remains at West Herr Hyundai and is available for further inspection. On [[redacted]], the dealership documented the corrosion, took photographs, and submitted the findings to Hyundai Corporate for review. We are currently awaiting Hyundai's determination regarding the appropriate remedy. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate this serious structural corrosion issue, including the effectiveness of Hyundai's Campaign 947 in addressing the underlying safety concern. I am also seeking an appropriate remedy from Hyundai, as the vehicle has been deemed unsafe to drive due to extensive structural deterioration. This condition presents an unacceptable safety risk, particularly in a vehicle with such low mileage. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

times for this issue. Each time the dealer said that they could not duplicate the problem, even after leaving there for several days, and they did no repair. The problem continues.

open Preliminary Evaluation PE26006 for 2021-2023 Model Y, involving detachment and potential loss of vehicle directional control. Both links failing simultaneously, discovered through Tesla's own bulletin inspection with no accident or impact damage, indicates premature component failure of a safety-critical steering/suspension part, not ordinary wear. Tesla has not agreed to cover this repair. The vehicle was promised back on [redacted] and is still not repaired. I am filing this report so the condition is documented within PE26006, and I request that NHTSA consider this case when evaluating whether the lateral link defect on 2021-2023 Model Y requires a recall. I have asked Tesla to preserve the removed parts for inspection. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

a distinct, unfamiliar smell that is not like burning fuel or oil. On October 21, I found the vehicle leaking an opaque, milky tan fluid onto my garage floor. The type and source of the fluid are UNKNOWN. I have photos of the leak. My family and I have stopped driving the vehicle because we believe it is unsafe. We were driving it with our children before these symptoms appeared. Given the history of Theta II engine failures, we are concerned about the risk of engine failure, stalling, or fire while driving. The new symptoms have not yet been diagnosed or confirmed by a dealer. I am arranging for the vehicle to be towed to a Kia dealer for warranty diagnosis. The vehicle and leak are available for inspection. I have reported these issues to the manufacturer under an open customer case.

terms of an accident, there have been a couple of moments where I really had to jerk the wheel in order to get it to stay in the lane and it was a really dangerous situation. The car has also been making horrible creaking noises that are similar to the other ones I have read about. No warning lights came on or have come on at all.

first came on 09/05/26, however, the check engine light did disappear later in the week. It came on again 09/27/26, so i decided to have the car inspected, despite the fact that the check engine light later went away.

and all available electronic data related to the incident be preserved and that Cadillac/GM conduct a technical investigation before any repair, software update, reprogramming, reset, or deletion of diagnostic information is performed. Even after the recommended repairs, I am very concerned about driving this car with my children in it if they can't tell me why it jumped forward.

Modesto, California seeking recall repair and was told parts were unavailable. I do not recall the exact visit date. Recall 25SA9 / 25V695 remains open, and the NHTSA VIN lookup on October 21, 2026 says the remedy is not yet available. I am reporting the ongoing safety risk and prolonged lack of a recall remedy.
