What owners report
Short excerpts of NHTSA complaints in the original wording. These are owner statements not verified by NHTSA; personal data removed.
Consumer was in an accident and the driver side air bag didn't deploy . Tt
At which time I said it was the ring/pinion gear at fault, the whine and roar would quit when you let up on the gas. It is so bad that any person riding in the back complains and moves toward the front because of the noise. By the way the van is a converted van that the only problem is the noise in the rear end.
Engine service light comes on every 3k miles on highway, vehicle will slow down on its own without prior warning.
Front passenger seat belt doesn't work. They had them replaced and they still does work. Please describe. Tt
