Example complaints
Brakes: “Rear brakes worn out including rotors at 21,000 miles. Rear calipers stick and stay on as if parking brake was engaged. Dealer said its common because of winter. My first vehicle ever to have calipers stick because of winter. Funny though this was not an issue in the winter. Only now after I declined to have them fix my brakes and it's 90 f outside.”
NHTSA complaint #10405739, filed 2011-06, 20,000 milesElectrical system: “2009 chrysler town and country. No specific event leading up to failure. The first time I had been driving for only a few minutes and was in a parking lot intersection when the car stopped. The second time I had just gotten off of a major highway and was on a busy in town road at rush hour going 30-40mph. Both times, without warning the van just shut down. I had no acceleration, no breaks and minimal steering for a few seconds. After the car shut down, I was able to restart it after a minute with no other problems. …”
NHTSA complaint #10348287, filed 2010-08, 19,700 milesEngine cooling: “I have a 2009 chrysler Town & Country, that was purchased august 2009. I dropped my car off at the pomoco chrysler dealership in newport news, va around 4:30pm. I have been having problems with my battery going dead since around november. The dealership couldn't figure out what it was, and always told me that they didn't see anything wrong with the vehicle. I later figured out that it seemed to be happening whenever I left the radio or temperature gauge in the on position; so I've been keeping those controls in the off position until I was able to bring it to the dealership again. …”
