About These NHTSA Complaints:
The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
Problem: The transmission pops out of first gear, sometimes immediately and sometimes after starting away which often causes the cars behind me to nearly rear end me. Dealer has been advised and parts have been ordered. My concern is the long term safety and integrity of the unit. The problem occurs especially after the car has been driven in heavy traffic; that is a time when the chances of being injured by our crack legion of aggressive urban drivers is greatest. You'd think after 100 years of manufacturing manual transmissions that perfection would have been achieved by now. Lastly, I'm not crazy about being a potential crash test dummy for a problem which should be automatically replaced, not patched.
