The contact owns a 2016 Ford Escape. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V69500 (Back Over Prevention). The manufacturer was contacted and the contact was informed that a letter would be sent when parts were available for the recall repair. The dealer was contacted but provided no additional assistance.
Three seat belts on my 2015 Dodge Durango R/T are broken and unusable: one in each of the two second-row seats and one in a third-row seat. In all three, the retractor no longer retracts, so the belt will not tighten or hold a passenger securely. I first noticed the problems in early August 2026, at the same time as a failure of the driver's seat belt. The driver's belt has since been repaired under a safety recall. Safety risk: With these belts inoperable, passengers in those seats cannot be properly restrained....

In a crash or sudden stop, they would be at serious risk of injury or death. I have two children who normally ride in the second row, and I am currently unable to transport them safely in this vehicle. The Durango is my family vehicle, so this affects our daily routine as well as our safety. Dealer confirmation: I could not get a service appointment until September 28, 2026, over a month after I first reported the problem. At that visit, Fitzgerald Automotive in Hagerstown Maryland, confirmed the driver's belt failure, ordered the recall part, and sent me home with the vehicle with the driver's belt still inoperable. I drove it that way until the part arrived and the repair was completed on [[redacted]]. The dealer did not identify the second-row belt failures, and I had to ask them to re-inspect the vehicle. They then confirmed the second-row belts were also broken. The dealer tried to order the replacement parts for the second row seatbelts. Parts availability: The dealer reports that Mopar has no replacement parts in stock and cannot give an estimated availability date. I also contacted Mopar/Stellantis customer care on [[redacted]], and they assigned a specialist named Phil under case number [[redacted]] to initiate a nationwide parts search. As of [[redacted]], the specialist has said there is nothing to update, and no ETA has been provided. The second- and third-row belts have now been inoperable for about three months.

This is my car, no problem. The problem are these other vehicles with these high beam looking lights. I believe it's LED lights, they are too bright! On a dark one lane road the road in front of me dissappears. I have to completely halt and wait for the vehicle with these lights to pass to see the road. Please regulate these lights to avoid any more accidents due to these lights.
AEB light blinks randomly (but not illuminated steadily). Dealer has cleared numerous times in the 17,000 miles since new purchase but I still experience this dash light blinking. Dealer has told me this is normal due to road conditions. I'm irritated that this dash light is even installed for me to ignore it blinking while I'm driving. Why Nissan? Why can't this feature removed or turned off permanently? When would I even know that my vehicle has a real problem indicated by the AEB blinking dash light; which of course based on dealer lack of information would occur AFTER warranty has expired.
The trailer has a small 12v Wire that is shown behind a 50a breaker on the wiring diagram and is actually wired directly to the battery terminal positive. ie not protected. I noticed this when looking for information about the batteries and the solar connection. If this wire gets rubbed thru or pinched, it will be live until it melts or catches fire. i sent the company an email but have not received a response. This could be only my trailer that was mis-wired as the wire diagram is correct with this wire behind the...

breaker. I am the original owner and had not changed the wiring, until i found the error. I took a picture of the improper wiring and have corrected it on my trailer. I just think that it could be on other trailers and they are at risk in my opinion.
All left rear wheel studs sheared off while traveling at 70mph 325 miles from home. This catastrophic failure was the direct result of recall Y26 not being preformed by Chrysler Corporation. This unsafe condition placed me and others on the highway in an extremely dangerous situation. When I was first notified of this recall I went to the dealer where I purchased the truck and was told the parts were on back order and they would notify me when the parts came in. That was in 2020. Since then I have been to three...

different dealers who told me the same thing. Parts never came in. Now my truck is disabled far from home and the dealer is telling me that he has only one out of four kits necessary to complete the recall. The other kits are back ordered with not date of expected arrival. I asked if that meant a week, month, or what time frame and his reply was he did not know. He did state that he didn't expect them this year! I was stranded 325 miles from home, had to sleep along side the busy Highway with cars and semi trucks whizzing by me less than 10 feet away all. Ight and half of the next day.
Bought the car with 31000 miles. Year of the ca is 2024. Bought it from Honda of Kenosha. CarFax states they have done a 176 point inspection.. During test drive everything was normal. After buying the car and driving on [[redacted]] to Milwaukee, the car wonders left and right following groves on the road. Feels like driving on ice, if not paying attention could end in another lane. Went to Journey Nissan three times for the same issue. The issue was disregarded all three times and only suggestion was to turn off...

My 2021 Toyota Highlander XLE began making a high-pitched whining noise when accelerating. When researching this noise, associated with the make, model, and year of my vehicle, it became apparent that the noise is associated with a manufacturer's defect in the [[redacted]]-speed transmission (Toyota [[redacted]]). The cited notification states that the correction for this defect is a transmission replacement that is only covered by the 60,000 mile/5 Year warranty. There are three class-action lawsuits associated...

with this issue, and I wanted to document my incident in the event that my service appointment with [[redacted]] Toyota in [[redacted]], on 11/23/2026 indicates that my transmission is affected by the defect so many have experienced.

I have repeatedly experienced a noticeable exhaust odor inside the cab while operating the vehicle\. The condition is particularly pronounced during cold weather when the vehicle is idling\. Under these circumstances, the exhaust smell inside the passenger compartment is distinct and concerning\. I have taken the vehicle to two separate General Motors dealerships in an effort to identify and resolve this issue\. On both occasions, I was advised that the vehicle was fine\. Despite these visits, the problem remains...

unresolved, and I continue to experience exhaust fumes inside the cab under the conditions described above\. My concern is that exhaust gases may be entering the passenger compartment, potentially exposing the driver and passengers to harmful emissions, including carbon monoxide\. Because carbon monoxide cannot be detected by smell, the presence of an exhaust odor does not establish whether carbon monoxide is present or at what concentration\. However, the recurring odor warrants a thorough investigation to determine its source and whether a potentially hazardous condition exists\. I am concerned that the issue may not be adequately identified during routine dealership inspections if the vehicle is not evaluated under the specific conditions in which the symptoms occur\. The fact that two dealerships have indicated that the vehicle is operating normally does not resolve my concern, particularly because the symptoms continue to occur\. I am requesting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration review this complaint and determine whether further investigation is warranted into the possibility of exhaust gases entering the passenger compartment of this vehicle\. I would appreciate consideration of whether this condition could represent a safety\-related defect that may affect other vehicles of the same make, model, or model year\. I have made reasonable efforts to address this matter through authorized GM service facilities.
1. What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The rear differential assembly completely failed, disabling the vehicle's all-wheel-drive capability. The component was replaced by Shingle Springs Subaru, so the original failed part is no longer available for physical inspection, but all diagnostic and repair receipts are available upon request. 2. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Around 73,000 miles, during a major winter snowstorm, I...

was starting to drive up a hill when the vehicle lost traction and the car would not move forward and began sliding. This sudden loss of control in severe weather put me, my [[redacted]] child, and all surrounding drivers at immediate risk of a catastrophic crash on a hazardous road with no warnings. 3. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Yes. The complete failure of the rear differential was officially diagnosed, confirmed, and replaced by the service department at Shingle Springs Subaru. 4. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? The failure was inspected and documented by Shingle Springs Subaru. Furthermore, corporate Subaru (the manufacturer) reviewed the dealership's case files and confirmed the situation enough to issue a $1,000 goodwill assistance gesture toward the repair. 5. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? There were no warning lamps, dashboard messages, or obvious symptoms prior to the incident. The vehicle had its major 60,000-mile factory service completed around 61,000 miles, and no issues were flagged by the mechanics. The catastrophic failure of the all-wheel-drive system only became apparent when the vehicle was subjected to the slick conditions of the winter storm.

Ford officially announced Safety Recall 25SA9 in October 2025 regarding a defective rearview camera affecting my 2015 Ford Explorer. I have actively inquired about getting this safety defect fixed at my local dealership, Century Ford in Mt. Airy, MD, for at least two years. However, Ford has continuously failed to provide a remedy due to a persistent "parts unavailability" delay. Under federal law, manufacturers are required to remedy safety defects within a reasonable timeframe. It has now been a full year since...

the recall became official, and two years since the issue was first raised, with no resolution or timeline in sight. This extended delay is completely unacceptable, compromises vehicle safety, and constitutes a failure to remedy the defect in a timely manner. I am filing this official complaint to request NHTSA intervention regarding Ford's failure to supply necessary repair parts to consumers.
On [[redacted]], at around [[redacted]] my 2023 GMC Sierra 1500 Elevation suddenly lost power while I was driving eastbound on [[redacted]]. The battery was still running, but the engine lost power and the accelerator did not respond and the truck would not move. I was stranded in the roadway. OnStar emailed me about a critical vehicle issue and reported DTC P129F. Because the truck was stopped in a live lane of traffic, I called 911. Responders blocked part of the road to protect me and to give the tow truck room...

to recover the vehicle. No one was injured, but this could easily have caused a serious collision. A few days later, I had the truck towed to Seaview GMC in Lynnwood, WA. The dealer diagnosed an internal failure of the fuel pump power control module, the K111 Fuel Pump Driver Control Module mentioned in the GM Bulletin earlier this year. This matches a known issue described in GM Service Bulletin 24-NA-139, which covers DTCs P129F and P023F and lists 2023 Sierra 1500 models. The bulletin describes symptoms including no-start and stalling. The dealership has attempted to charge me $200 for diagnosis and $261 for the fuel pump module. I had asked them if this was covered under warranty, they responded that they would check with their warranty specialist. This conversation happened at the Seaview GMC Dealer approximately 5pm on [[redacted]]. The informed me they would call the next day to confirm if this is covered or not covered by warranty. I am reporting this because a sudden loss of power while driving on a highway is a serious safety risk. I am concerned that other owners may experience the same failure at highway speed, and I would like NHTSA to review this issue.

I have a better picture... ODI = 11773574 Please consider expanding the recall ...
I was driving steadily on the freeway in slow moving traffic at 20-30 miles and had a lot of distance between me and the car in front. There was a sudden jolt and it appeared the vehicle was attempting to brake unexpectedly. If my foot had not been on the accelerator, I believe the vehicle could have come to a sudden, complete stop, potentially causing the vehicle behind me to rear end my car. Several months, before this incident, the Collision Mitigation Braking System and Lane Assist warning alerts would sound...

while I was driving on the freeway. This happened at two separate times. The sudden alarms are startling, and I cannot safely read the dashboard messages while driving. I am forced to slow down or pull over to check what is wrong, creating additional safety risks. I have a scheduled appointment with the Dealer this weekend due to the sudden braking however, I've brought this issue up with the service department in the past with the warning lights and they don't seem to have a definitive answer as to what is causing it. I have less than 20,000 miles on this vehicle.
I own a 2019 tcuv Mirai in February of 2026 I complained to Toyota of the dashboard causing sporatic glitches nothing was done.
