occupants. Audi San Diego subsequently inspected the vehicle and acknowledged the speaker trim issue. However, the dealership declined responsibility for correcting the recurring defect, stating that the recall had already been performed and was now closed. My concern is that the original safety recall remedy has not provided a lasting correction. The same safety-related component has failed again after the manufacturer's authorized repair, leaving occupants exposed to the hazard the recall was intended to address. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate the recurrence of this defect and the effectiveness of Audi's original recall remedy, including whether additional corrective action is warranted. The vehicle and affected components are available for further inspection upon request, subject to scheduling.

panel. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, where diagnosis confirmed a rear left axle failure and a damaged drivetrain, requiring a complete axle replacement and a new gearbox. The failure mileage was 25,000.

October 14th. Tesla subsequently repaired the tailgate, but the problem was apparent before delivery. The rear camera was scratched or damaged at delivery and later replaced by Tesla. I have also experienced interruptions to Tesla's self-driving or driver-assistance features when camera functions were unavailable, raising concerns about camera-dependent safety systems. The truck also shakes and makes unusual noises above about 70 miles per hour. The cause has not been identified, and the vibration remains unresolved. I do not feel safe driving it at highway speeds until it's inspected. Shortly after delivery, I found numerous cockroaches and ants, particularly around the bed and tailgate. My daughter has a documented cockroach allergy, which makes exposure a serious concern for my family. Tesla service described the infestation as a hazard and said service could not proceed until professional cleaning was completed. I no longer feel this vehicle is safe. I have service records, photos, and messages documenting my reports. I ask NHTSA to review the potential safety defects, especially the tailgate opening while driving, the camera-related driver assistance interruptions, and the unresolved highway vibration.

replacement. A written estimate dated [redacted] quoted $7,823.58 for an engine replacement. Despite this diagnosis, the dealership later declared the vehicle drivable and returned it after adding oil, without providing a satisfactory explanation for reversing its original findings. The engine problems continued, and the vehicle had to be returned to the dealership. This presents a serious potential safety hazard. An unresolved engine or oil-pressure problem could cause sudden engine failure, loss of propulsion, or a breakdown while driving on a highway or in heavy traffic, increasing the risk of a collision and injuries to occupants and other motorists. I am particularly concerned that a vehicle initially diagnosed as needing engine replacement was subsequently declared safe to drive without documented evidence that the underlying problem had been corrected. I request that NHTSA investigate whether this engine failure represents a broader safety defect affecting 2019 Hyundai Tucson vehicles and whether additional safety measures, including a recall investigation, are warranted. Vehicle: 2019 Hyundai Tucson AWD 2.0L VIN: [[redacted]] Mileage at diagnosis: Approximately 87,656 miles Incident Date: [redacted] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

empty, the vehicle lost its ability to propel itself and eventually came to a rolling stop. After stopping, I turned the vehicle off and restarted it. The vehicle subsequently resumed normal operation, and most of the warning lights disappeared. However, the emissions system warning remained illuminated. After researching this incident, I discovered NHTSA Safety Recall 25V785000 (Honda Recall TN2), which affects certain 2023-2025 Honda Accord Hybrid vehicles. According to the recall, a software error involving the Integrated Control Module (ICM) may cause the system to reset while driving, resulting in a loss of drive power. The symptoms described in this recall closely resemble what I experienced. However, when I contacted Honda, I was informed that this recall had already been completed on my vehicle. I am extremely concerned that my vehicle experienced a loss of propulsion despite Honda reporting that the applicable safety recall remedy had already been performed. This incident presents a significant safety risk, particularly if a similar failure occurs while traveling at highway speeds, navigating an intersection, or driving in heavy traffic. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate whether the existing recall remedy adequately addresses this potential safety defect, whether the software update was properly implemented, and whether other Honda Accord Hybrid owners have experienced similar failures after recall completion.

storm over the weekend and my wife noticed that the floor of the driver side was wet and then noticed the passenger side front was damp as well. She called the dealership to report it and brought the vehicle in right away to see what's going on. We were told that the cost of repair would be $3,450 to replace the rug and clear the drain house and make sure it no longer leaks. We were told they could clean and dry out the rug if wanted to go the least expensive route and would be about $2,000. We were told that because it was caused by external factors (rain and debris) that caused the drain hose to back up and cause water to leak into the car in multiple spots and would not be covered under ANY of the warrantees and would have to be paid out of pocket. After a bunch of discussions and back and forth we were told that we could submit it to our car insurance to help with some of the out of pocket coverage. We did not own the car last fall for enough debris to be in the drains, it is september weather (just officially fall) and only rained out as it does in [[redacted]]. We have other cars with sunroofs and neighbors with sunroofs with no problems. This repair should not be out of pocket and should be paid at the expense of Acura dealership and not by the owners who have spent thousands on fees, payments, warranty coverage, etc. We do not have the money to pay for this damage and now weeks have gone by with no resolve and are now also concerned with mold issues.

"unlock" function to open. We resolved this by changing the unlock setting in the settings software, making us think this is a software issue from the update. Started on September 18. Safety is decreased by not having Smart Cruise and Forward Safety Systems available. We will go to the dealer today. We have reported this to Hyundai, case #43378707. No one else has inspected the car. The warning lights appeared on October 10th.

triggered the system. The passenger-side head restraint remained deployed and visibly opened after the incident. This unexpected activation of a safety restraint system while the vehicle was stationary raises serious concerns about occupant safety. Had the same failure occurred while driving, it could have startled or injured an occupant. I contacted an authorized Dodge dealership regarding replacement. The dealership quoted $1,545 for the replacement part and an additional $324.96 for three hours of labor, totaling $1,869.96 before taxes. I also contacted Dodge Customer Care. I was informed that the X88 extended warranty coverage expired on November 12, 2024, and that the repair would likely be at my expense. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate this potential safety defect involving the spontaneous deployment of the Active Head Restraint system.

require the expensive install of hardware that "tricks" the system into believing it is connected to a cellular network. This is not okay!! They need to push an update to remove these alerts!

us stranded. We had to have the vehicle towed to Land Rover Albany. Land Rover Corporate is stating that the issue is the DC-DC Converter per the open recall, but that because the vehicle is now out of warranty and they still dont have a remedy for the recall issue, that we have to pay out of pocket to have the vehicle repaired. This issue has been known specifically for us since March 2023 and the recall has officially been open with the NHTSA since April 2026. For them to not have a remedy to an issue that shuts the vehicle down and the driver loses control of the vehicle is absolutely dangerous and negligent, especially having known about it for this long. And then their unwillingness to cover the repairs just speaks to their lack of urgency to resolve the safety issue.

avoidance system failed to engage to prevent the collisions. The front driver's side air bag failed to deploy as expected. The vehicle sustained rear-end damage. The vehicle was towed to an auto collision center, where a superficial diagnostic inspection was performed, and the contact was informed that no failure was found. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to a Tesla Service center and to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was 30,616.

warning message, a malfunctioning seat belt restraint that failed to properly secure the driver, and a trunk lid that failed to latch properly. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who was unable to determine the cause of the failures. The manufacturer was notified of the failures. The failure mileage was 21,002.
