Owner stories

One report is an outlier. A wall of them is a pattern.

These are real accounts from 4xe owners, posted after review. On their own, each is a single experience. Together, they make the pattern harder to wave off — and they point every reader to the same next step: file it with NHTSA.

Stories are reviewed before posting. Only a first name, last initial, and state are shown — never contact details.

Reviewed accounts

In owners' words

Owner reports will be published here as they're submitted and reviewed. If your 4xe does this, share your account below — and file your complaint with NHTSA.

Submit your story

Share what your 4xe does. Submissions are reviewed before anything is posted, and only a first name, last initial, and state are ever published — no contact information.

A moderated submission form is being set up. In the meantime, the most important step is to file your report where it counts — with NHTSA.
