Example complaints

Fuel system: “(vehicle is 2019 with 7404 miles recorded on date of incident). Morning of 18th aug 2020. The car sat overnight so was 'cold' when I started it. I immediately selected reverse and began backing up (exact speed unknown, but 'slow'). Approx 10 secs after starting the engine the very strong odor of gasoline entered the cockpit - I immediately shut off the engine. Exiting the vehicle I could see a trail of fluid 10 ft long on the concrete driveway and the scent identified it as gasoline. …”

NHTSA complaint #11353843, filed 2020-09, 7,404 miles

Engine: “Takata recall. Engine suddenly stopped working while driving and it prompted me to get the engine serviced. I couldn't even shift the gear after the vehicle stopped. Worth mentioning, before the vehicle completely broke down, I can't enter the apple carplay screen even though the option was shown. Besides this, the infotainment systems reboots itself every now and then.”

NHTSA complaint #11233522, filed 2019-07, 1,940 miles

Air bags: “On 12/30/2020 the car was wrecked into a light pole at 55-60 MPH. Major front end damage the seatbelts didn't lock and the airbags did not deploy. The manufacture is not being responsible.the vehical currently has a product liability hold on it for inspection but it has not been inspected as of today. I think they are trying to cover it up and not report it.I was injured and they don't care.they still call for payments but no calls about the vehicals inspection from FCA.the vehicals was on a city street.”

NHTSA complaint #11407146, filed 2021-04, 18,000 miles

Electrical system: “My car since I have had it has had 1 recall, some type of electrical problem, and 3 times it had to go to the shop because of fuel system failure. I was told it was a lot of water in the system, but I used the same gas station that they use to put gas in the car after it was drained and refilled. Every time I had an issue with my car I was always in motion. Once this car stops you are stuck wherever you are at because you can not put this car in neutral to push it out of the road. I have felt like my life was in jeopardy each time this car has stopped on me. …”
