A few complaints as filed, shortened and with personal details removed. The first ones are among the most serious reports for this model year; the rest are typical.

I was driving down the highway and noticed my car did not want to pull when I sped up. A few more miles down the road I noticed smoke coming from my tail pipe and the my air vents. So I pulled over, got out, and walked around to the front of the car and noticed what looked like oil on the side of my car. By this time fire started coming from under the hood. Within minutes my car was blazing and a total loss. What happened to my car? That's what I really want to know.
