“I don't know if this is a takata recall or not. My srs light came on as I entered my neighborhood. I smelled a burnt smell. I parked under the car port and put the car in park. I was about to turn off the engine when the passenger side airbag deployed. It broke the windshield, the glove box and the rear view mirror.”Owner report · Air Bags · Jun 2016

“At about 25 mph or 1500-2000 rpm the van shudders or shakes. I've seen multiple complaints for this on various internet forums. The vast majority attribute this to the transmission. Under mild acceleration the van will shake or shudder with a fair amount of force. This occurs frequently and is disconcerting to lose even a small amount of control of the vehicles movement. Dealer told me to change the gas. No resolution yet. *tr”Owner report · Power Train · Oct 2011

“Automobile tires and valves that were about three years old. We had two tire valve stems fail within one week. I noted rubber cracking/failure at the base of the valve stems on both that failed. I immediately replaced all the valve stems on all four wheels. I was not able to determine who made the valve stems, possibly make in china? My dealer couldn't tell me what he was using as valve stems three years ago. Consumer reports had recently issued a warning about defective chinese tire valve stems. . Might be a good idea to put something out on your web site. Thanks! *tr”Owner report · Tires · May 2009
