received medical attention for left-side neck and shoulder pain, lower back pain, and aggravation of a pre-existing herniated disc. The contact received follow-up treatment from a chiropractor for the sustained injuries. A police report was filed. The vehicle was deemed the vehicle a total loss by the insurance company. The failure mileage was 198,000.

in writing that an ADAS control module was causing the Start/Stop system not to engage, that the part was backordered, with no release date. After the vehicle was returned, it malfunctioned three times in one day on August 11 (A/C affected each time), and recurred August 27 and September 1. A dealer repair order at approximately 3,916 miles documents "MALFUNCTION WARNING LIGHT" and the Start/Stop complaint. I am concerned this may be a broader safety defect because I have seen the same or similar warning/malfunction in multiple separate QX80 loaners supplied by the dealer while mine was being repaired, including loaners with as few as approximately 3 and 35 miles on them when received. Every loaner I have been given, without exception, has shown this defect, including one that displayed the warning at approximately 71 mph. Most recently, on November 6, 2026, the malfunction recurred again while driving at approximately 57 mph, at approximately 8,203 miles. I cannot determine on my own whether all these vehicles share the identical underlying failure without access to diagnostic trouble codes. I am reporting this pattern so NHTSA can determine whether it indicates a broader safety-related defect in the QX80. This has occurred during normal driving, including highway speed, and has required pulling off the roadway to shut down and restart the vehicle.

permanently damaged the hardware and that the entire infotainment module requires replacement under warranty. There were no warning lamps or prior symptoms; the screen simply failed immediately following the software update. The required replacement part is currently on indefinite backorder, and the manufacturer has not provided a timeline for repair or a safe alternative vehicle.

controls has not worked. No lights, no codes, no indication that the panel is even connected to the truck in any way. Luckily, I believe this will be covered under the Carvana limited warranty. I am scheduling an appointment by Monday to get it evaluated. I am a new member to the RAM online forum. In the forum there are many many other RAM owners experiencing the same or very similar issues. Some have had some quite dangerous encounters due to the panel malfunction. What I find strange is there have been other recalls on RAMs all the way up to 2019. I am concerned about why the newer models, with the exact same issues, has not been issued a recall.

catastrophic failure of the Occupant Classification System (OCS) sensor mat located inside the front passenger seat cushion. The specific Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) retrieved was B1490 (OCS Sensor Mat Defect). The dealership confirmed that due to this hardware failure, the front passenger airbag is completely deactivated and will not deploy in the event of a collision, posing an immediate, severe injury risk to front-seat occupants. Hyundai previously recognized widespread safety defects with this exact component and issued an 18-Year OCS Sensor Warranty Extension (Campaign Z01) to replace the front passenger seat cushion/OCS sensor free of charge. However, Hyundai Corporate and the local dealership are refusing to honor the warranty extension on my vehicle based strictly on a technicality. They state that Campaign Z01 only covers the physical replacement of the OCS sensor if the computer outputs code B1764, whereas my vehicle is outputting code B1490. Both trouble codes identify an internal, unprovoked hardware failure of the exact same OCS sensor mat assembly, resulting in the exact same hazardous condition: a permanently disabled passenger airbag. By denying coverage based on a software code variation for an identical component failure, Hyundai is failing to remedy a known restraint system defect. I am filing this complaint to document this critical safety hazard.

completely surprised to find out this huge safety issue. Look how dangerous this would have been if I was on the interstate in [[redacted]] or some other really big city, and yet unable to move my car out of the line of traffic. As I had the car for only a week, I was shocked when this happened and knowing this will happen not just you run out of gas, but also when the engine shuts off and won't restart. This needs addressed! Thank you INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others?... Vehicle has only been checked by Arlington Toyota in Jacksonville Florida which is an authorized Toyota service center. Where there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem: No warning lamps or messages, only humming sound from drive train was noticed.

Glassman Subaru overfilled the coolant reservoir to mask the fluid loss and subsequently refused further diagnostics, hanging up on the consumer. The secondary franchise dealer (Hodges Subaru) is refusing to accept the vehicle for a safety-critical combustion gas block test and UV dye trace until December 8th. The manufacturer refuses to facilitate an immediate safety inspection, forcing the daily operation of a vehicle with a severe, active cooling system defect on public highways.

and marked the recall completed. The sludge findings were never disclosed to us before purchase. After purchasing the vehicle, we discovered metallic debris in the engine, raising concerns about bearing damage associated with the recall. Infiniti initially claimed there was no open recall because the previous inspection was completed. After further discussions, Infiniti acknowledged the recall issue but refused repairs, citing the previously documented sludge. We brought the vehicle to an authorized Nissan dealership for inspection. Despite the metallic debris findings, Infiniti refused repairs, claiming sludge voided the manufacturer's warranty. A subsequent goodwill review was also denied. We dispute Infiniti's use of a warranty exclusion to deny a federal safety recall remedy. A voided warranty does not automatically eliminate a manufacturer's recall obligations. Furthermore, the previous sludge finding does not establish that the engine is free from the identified manufacturing defect. Potential engine bearing failure creates serious risks, including sudden loss of power, crashes, and engine fires. We request that NHTSA investigate whether Infiniti properly completed the original recall inspection and whether its refusal to provide recall repairs based on engine sludge complies with federal safety recall requirements.

the manufacturer with the part being on national backorder, indefinitely and currently not covered under any warranty or recall notice. Repair estimate exceeds $2000. 2. At 28 months the paint peeling became evident. At 38 months paint started peeling in large sections on the hood and above the windshield. This was at about 48,000 miles.

completely through the frame opening to the swingarm. The swingarm itself had shifted so significantly that it was no longer aligned with the opening in the frame through which the pivot axle is designed to pass. In other words, the structural connection between the frame and swingarm had substantially separated while I was riding the motorcycle. The swingarm is an integral part of the motorcycle's frame and rear suspension system. Its pivot connection is essential to maintaining the proper relationship between the frame and rear wheel assembly. I consider this an extremely serious safety failure. Fortunately, I was traveling on a straight road at moderate speed when the problem became apparent. Had this occurred while cornering, riding aggressively, or operating off-road, the consequences could have been catastrophic. A loss of rear suspension integrity and alignment under those circumstances could easily have resulted in a serious accident or fatal injury. I am particularly concerned that this may represent a broader product safety issue rather than an isolated mechanical failure.
