Verbatim excerpts from NHTSA complaints, by component

Steering

2 reports
“The steering gets sticky and hard to control and make small corrections at highway speeds. It feels very unsafe to drive as the steering feels like im ping ponging on the road and causes me to get close to others cars almost causing a crash. This has been on going since September of this year and I only bought the car in March of this year 2026. Please help.”
Owner complaint to NHTSAFiled Oct 13, 2026SteeringODI 11770988

Electrical system

1 report
“I was on my way home from work this morning and all warning lights (electric power steering, ABS, collision control warning, brake system sensors, etc.) randomly came on and the steering became very still. When parking, I wasn’t able to turn the car off without pressing the “push to start” button multiple times.”
