"While driving down the interstate, as I exited my vehicle lost power. It would rev up but no movement. I turned the car off and restarted, now the car will drive but the power output to the wheels does not match rpm's. Check engine light came on, went to AutoZone and ran diagnostics and the code says stepper motor on cvt transmission. Started checking it out, the dealer says only transmission replacement will fix it."

Methodology & source

All figures come from the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) public APIs: the Office of Defects Investigation complaint database, the recalls database, and NCAP safety ratings, retrieved September 7, 2026.

Complaints are self-reported by consumers and are not verified by NHTSA or by this site. A single complaint may cite multiple vehicle systems, so system mentions can sum to more than the complaint total. Complaint volume is influenced by fleet size, media attention, and recall notices, and is not by itself a measure of defect rates.

This site is not affiliated with NHTSA or any manufacturer. Nothing here is repair, purchase, or legal advice. For your specific vehicle, use the official NHTSA VIN lookup and consult a qualified technician.
