Verbatim excerpts from NHTSA complaints, by component

Steering

6 reports
“Often while driving and turning the steering wheel the steering wheel will get stuck or start to bind and I will have to apply some force to get it unstuck. Sometimes it is worse than others and can get to the point where I can turn the wheel to go around a turn and I can let go and the steering wheel stays stuck in that same position. No warning or failure notifications from the car. I took it to the dealer to be repaired under warranty. They replicated the issue and replaced the electronic steering rack.”

1 report
“The sets does not recline so a newborns head is bent forward the entire time causing a risk of death by cutting airway/ circulation. It did not happen but I cannot use the car seat. It doesn’t recline back to make newborn comfortable.”
