Another issue is that on the dash when I change songs sometimes on Apple CarPlay it freezes, it plays a song but…”Aug 13, 2023 · Lane Departure · NHTSA owner report
“Steering is very jerky and sticks into a turning position while driving at highway speeds. It takes a heavy correction to get the car out of the “lockâ€�. Nearly had a couple of accidents due to the car trying to swerve in the opposite lane in turns.”Jun 24, 2023 · Steering · NHTSA owner report

Rarely, the steering wheel does not return to the center position after a long sweeping curve on a highway and needs to be jerked back slightly to get it to retu…”Apr 9, 2023 · Steering · NHTSA owner report

Sources & method

Safety Signal starts every model-year at 100 and subtracts points per open NHTSA recall campaign by severity: critical 15 (fire risk, park-outside or do-not-drive advisories), high 8 (brakes, steering, airbags, loss of drive power, structure, battery), moderate 6, minor 3 (software, labels, lighting fixed by an update). Floor 35. A ≥ 90, B ≥ 80, C ≥ 70, D ≥ 60, otherwise F. Complaint counts and NHTSA crash ratings are shown separately and are not blended into the grade.

EPA figures come from fueleconomy.gov vehicle records. Recalls, complaints, investigations and crash ratings come from NHTSA's public flat files, refreshed weekly.
