Consumer Report: Most Complained About Cars
by CBS3's Jim Donovan for KYW Newsradio 1060
Each year the Center for Auto Safety comes up with its annual car complaint index.
It ranks vehicles based on complaints filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) versus the number of each model on the road.
The complaints range from transmission and airbag issues to premature braking, and even cup holder issues.
Bob Silverman is an attorney that specializes in lemon law claims:
"People are complaining to NHTSA about certain cars more and about certain parts of each car and this is the list of the worst cars and the worst parts of those cars."
