NHTSA files every complaint against a named sub-assembly, not just a system. This is the difference between knowing it was "the engine" and knowing which part of it — the list to hand a mechanic.
Odometer readings owners gave when they filed. About half of all complaints include one.
A spike years after the car went on sale usually means a part wearing out on schedule across the whole fleet — the kind of pattern no single owner can see from inside their own car.
An investigation is the step before a recall: the agency has seen enough complaints to look into a pattern itself. An open one means it thinks something may be wrong and nothing has been fixed yet.
STEERING COLUMN FIRES
A complaint is one owner's allegation. A recall is the point at which the manufacturer or a regulator agreed the defect is real and dangerous enough to fix for free — however old the car is.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:STARTER ASSEMBLY
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: PASSENGER VEHICLES. IF THE ENGINE STARTER FAILS TO ENGAGE AND THE DRIVER HOLD THE KEY IN THE "START" POSITION FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD, HIGH CURRENT FLOWS THROUGH THE IGNITION SWITCH, PRODUCING HEAT THAT CAN MELT SWITCH PARTS.
Risk: A FIRE COULD OCCUR IN THE STEERING COLUMN AND SPREAD TO THE INTERIOR OF THE CAR.
Canada runs its own recall programme, and its campaigns do not always mirror the American ones.
Electrical
On certain vehicles, the electrical current through the ignition switch is above design capacity. Over time, this excessive current damages the ignition switch and may result in a fire in the vicinity of the steering column ignition switch which could spread to other parts of the vehicle's interior. Correction: Dealers will install a relay kit and, if necessary, replace the ignition switch and steering column tilt lever.
Recalls cover specific build ranges, so check your own vehicle by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls or, in Canada, Transport Canada.

AIR BAGS
AIRBAG IS WORN OUT. HORN QUIT WORKING. THERE IS STILL NO RECALL ON THIS. MORE FAULTY DESIGN. THERE IS NO EXCUSE TO HAVE A DESIGN WHERE THE HORN WON'T WORK.

AIR BAGS
AIRBAG DEVELOPS A PROBLEM WHERE THE HORN IS VERY SENSITIVE AND SOMETIMES DEPLOYS ON ITS OWN. OTHER TIMES IT WON'T WORK AT ALL. A HORN GOING OFF AT INAPPROPRIATE TIMES COULD CONFUSE OTHER DRIVERS AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.THE PARTICULAR PART HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED BY GM BUT THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR THEM NOT ADDRESSING THIS ISSUE.

AIR BAGS
MY HORN STOPPED WORKING. THE PROBLEM WAS TRACED TO THE HORN SWITCH. MY MECHANIC COULD NOT REPLACE THE HORN SWITCH BECAUSE IT IS PART OF THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY, WHICH HAD BEEN DISCONTINUED. I HAD TO HAVE A BYPASS SWITCH INSTALLED ON THE DASHBOARD, WHICH IS INCONVENIENT AND AWKWARD TO USE. IN MY OPINION, THE HORN IS A MORE IMPORTANT SAFETY FEATURE THAN THE AIR BAG. I AM 71 YEARS OLD AND HAVE NEVER SEEN AN AIR BAG DEPLOY, BUT MY HORN HAS PREVENTED ACCIDENTS MANY TIMES.

STRUCTURE
THE GM N-BODY CARS FROM 1992-1995 HAVE A PROBLEM WITH WATER LEAKING INTO THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. I HAD THIS FIXED FOR $350 AT A GM DEALER A FEW YEARS BACK BUT THE PROBLEM IS RECURRING. WATER COMES IN THROUGH THE FIREWALL AND SOAKS THE CARPET. IT HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR IS WASHED OR WHEN IT RAINS. MY CAR IS A 1995 SKYLARK, BUT THIS HAS ALSO HAPPENED TO OTHER GM CARS FROM THESE YEARS TOO. THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR THIS DESIGN FLAW. CAR MANUFACTURERS HAVE HAD OVER 100 YEARS TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO KEEP WATER OUT OF A VEHICLE. I BELIEVE THERE IS A SERVICE BULLETIN FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL TOO IN ORDER TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM WITHOUT ME HAVING TO GO BACK TO A GM DEALER TO LOSE MORE MONEY ON A TEMPORARY FIX. IF THIS PROBLEM IS LEFT UNCHECKED, IT WILL CAUSE RUST-THROUGH IN THE FIREWALL AND FLOORBOARDS. I WOULD NOT EVEN HAVE CONSIDERED BUYING THIS CAR HAD I KNOWN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM.

WHILE TRAVELING DOWN THE HIGHWAY THE STEERING COLUMN BOLT DIS-LODGED CAUSING THE STEERING TO BE ALMOST IN-OPERABLE, THIS ALSO RESULTED IN THE INSTRUMENT LIGHTS AND TAIL LIGHTS TO GO OUT AND STOP WORKING.
