Vehicle Model: REO BY REVOLVE 360
Model Year: 9999
Summary
My Evenflo REO car seat, model CS26021538 (Danvers), is included in NHTSA Recall 26C004. I learned of the recall and contacted Evenflo ParentLink because I am concerned about continuing to use a recalled child restraint. The recall involves the headrest potentially changing position under certain conditions. Evenflo states that the seat may continue to be used only within specified headrest positions while a remedy is being developed. My seat is currently within the permitted range. However, Evenflo has told me that there is currently no ETA for the remedy kit and has instructed me to continue using the seat under the interim guidelines until the kit becomes available. I am not comfortable relying on a recalled child restraint for my child for an indefinite period of time while waiting for a remedy with no estimated availability date. I am also concerned that the eventual remedy will require me to install or perform a repair myself. I do not feel comfortable personally performing a safety-related repair on my child’s car seat because an incorrect installation could potentially affect the seat’s performance in a crash. I contacted Evenflo and requested an alternative, such as an immediate replacement with a non-recalled car seat or a refund/reimbursement so I could purchase a comparable non-recalled seat. Evenflo did not address those requests and instead advised me to register the seat and continue using it until the remedy kit is available. No injury or crash has occurred, and the seat has not been independently inspected. My concern is the lack of an available remedy or ETA and whether the recall remedy is being adequately and reasonably implemented for consumers who are uncomfortable continuing to use the recalled child restraint or performing the eventual repair themselves. I am requesting that NHTSA review this situation and determine whether additional action regarding the timing or implementation of the recall remedy is appropriate.

Summary
The transmission quit moving the car forward in traffic which could have caused a collision. When the transmission started shifting weird and not accelerating normally, the ABS Sensor malfunction light came on. I towed the car to a toyota dealership in [XXX] and they said I needed the transmission replaced for $10000(new), which I could not afford. I was expecting it to be a sensor since that was the light that came on. I had the transmission rebuilt by an independent mechanic and during the first test drive, the car applied brakes and came to a complete stop. We took the car to the toyota dealership for a program update that the information we had said was needed. The dealership stated there was no update available. They also told me I could drive the car home. After going about three miles from the dealership the transmission stopped moving the car again in traffic which again could have caused a collision. There were codes being thrown that would not be there when the transmission was rebuilt and subsequent reevaluations. The car has been unusable since XXX INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Summary
The air conditioning system on my 2025 Honda Pilot stopped producing cold air at approximately 21,374 miles. The A/C failure also affects the vehicle’s ability to adequately clear fog and condensation from the windshield during humid or rainy conditions, reducing visibility while driving. On XXX, [XXX] Honda diagnosed the problem and documented on the repair order that the A/C clutch and coil need to be replaced. The repair order states that the parts are “currently on backorder with no ETA.” The vehicle was returned to us without the repair completed and without functioning A/C. We were advised to continue driving the vehicle while waiting for the backordered parts. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Summary
I am reporting a repeatable safety problem with FSD Lite's end-to-end parking behavior. On July 22, 2026, FSD Lite reversed the vehicle into a solid concrete garage wall while backing into a parking space. The vehicle did not stop before hitting the wall and sustained a scrape. On September 20, 21, and 22, 2026, FSD Lite selected parking spaces and began reversing toward parked cars. I had to intervene each time to prevent a collision. When I select the parking space myself, the maneuver works correctly. A previous software update briefly fixed the problem, but it returned after the vehicle updated to FSD Lite v14.1 Lite, software build 2026.26.6.5. This is a repeatable reverse-parking safety defect that can cause property damage and could injure someone. No one was injured, and no other property was damaged. The vehicle and its logs are available for inspection. Please review the FSD parking-space selection, reverse path planning, obstacle detection, and braking behavior for these events.

Those engine are defective and the repair shops are full of the same type of repairs on that type of engine. My engine is a 5.3-liter V8, The engine started to make ticking noises out of nowhere and then it started missing badly. The repair shop informed me it would take 3 weeks before i could get it repaired at the cost of $5000.I did research on the 5.3 liter engine and found out that GM produced a engine that will cost us owners a lot of our heard money for a defect they created, This is so wrong Because i am a senior citizen. I paid over $50,000 for a limon that is just wrong.

Summary
Subject: URGENT – RAM 2500 Shutdown / Near Accident / Case #XXX Hey [XXX], The truck shut down AGAIN tonight, XXX, and I nearly got into an accident. I recorded another video and called RAM to open Case #XXX. I plan to return it tomorrow morning; please coordinate safe transport. This has been ongoing for approximately a year. My 2025 RAM 2500 intermittently shuts down while driving: the engine stops, the instrument cluster goes black, and the truck goes into Neutral, losing propulsion. Previous incidents occurred at approximately 20–80 mph, with the first within 800 miles of ownership. The instrument cluster was replaced around 16,000 miles following Stellantis engineering guidance. That did not fix it. Another shutdown occurred around 18,000 miles while transporting employees to [XXX], as documented in my August 3 summary. The dealership previously discussed a new STAR case and escalation to a Stellantis field specialist (“Top Gun”). Please confirm those actions, provide the STAR case number, and link the repair history and videos to RAM Case #XXX. I need immediate engineering escalation, a documented diagnostic plan, and a permanent, verified repair—not more trial-and-error parts replacement. Since previous failures reportedly left no fault codes, please consider long-term diagnostic logging to capture the event. I am willing to leave the truck for several weeks. My priority remains fixing it, but if Stellantis cannot resolve this, I expect a formal review of buyback or other resolution options. This is a serious, recurring safety issue that nearly caused an accident tonight. RAM’s response will directly affect our company’s future business with the brand.

Summary
In August 2026, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announced an active safety recall under campaign number 26V525000 for certain 2021–2023 BMW vehicles experiencing severe driveshaft-to-rear-differential connection failures that result in an immediate loss of motive power and vehicle rollaway risks. Shortly after this announcement, my 2021 BMW 540i (VIN: [XXX]) suffered this exact catastrophic mechanical failure while in motion, completely disabling the vehicle and creating an imminent safety hazard in live traffic. The vehicle was towed directly to Bert Smith BMW in St. Petersburg, Florida, where a certified technician formally diagnosed the severed components and ordered a replacement driveshaft assembly.Despite the vehicle exhibiting the identical mechanical failure mechanism and falling squarely within the impacted model year production pool under federal investigation, BMW Corporate denied all warranty coverage and goodwill assistance on the basis that this specific VIN was not yet explicitly listed in the initial recall batch. As a direct result of the manufacturer's denial, I was forced to pay entirely out of pocket for the mandatory parts and labor to restore the vehicle to a safe operating condition. The failed physical components have been requested for preservation, and this documented financial injury has been submitted alongside a formal safety complaint to federal investigators to mandate a retroactive expansion of the recall parameters for full financial reimbursement.

Summary
I am reporting a suspected safety defect involving my daughter's 2017 Hyundai Tucson, VIN [XXX], with approximately 77,940 miles. The vehicle experienced an engine failure beginning with the illumination of the oil-pressure warning light and Check Engine Light, followed by a pronounced engine knocking noise. The vehicle subsequently could not continue running. The vehicle was inspected by a Hyundai dealership, which diagnosed an engine failure. I am aware of Hyundai Safety Recall 209 / NHTSA Recall 21V-727 involving certain 2017 Hyundai Tucson vehicles equipped with the 2.0-liter Nu GDI engine. Hyundai's recall documentation identifies premature connecting-rod-bearing wear and specifically identifies abnormal engine knocking and illumination of the oil-pressure warning light as symptoms that can precede engine damage and stalling. My daughter's vehicle experienced these same symptoms. Hyundai has informed us that this particular VIN is not included in Recall 209 and Hyundai Motor America has denied our request for assistance. I am therefore asking NHTSA to review this complaint as a potential safety defect and determine whether there may be additional 2017 Tucson vehicles outside the current Recall 209 population experiencing the same or substantially similar engine failure. I am not claiming that the vehicle is definitively covered by Recall 209. Rather, I am asking NHTSA to investigate whether the exclusion of this vehicle is appropriate given the similarity between the actual failure symptoms and the defect identified in Recall 209. I can provide the dealership's diagnostic documentation, Hyundai Motor America's denial, photographs, maintenance records, and other supporting information upon request. Vehicle: 2017 Hyundai Tucson, VIN: [XXX], Mileage: Approximately 77,940 miles Failure: Engine knocking, oil-pressure warning light, Check Engine Light, engine failure/stalling Related Recall: Hyundai Recall 209 / NHTSA 21V-727.
