Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“I just got off the highway. While I was parking the vehicle I heard popping noise under the hood and I completely lost steering. The bolts holding the inner rods and rack and pinion broke off. After some research I found out that this is very common problem for this line of Chrysler vehicles. I called Chrysler customer service. They claim that this is not their problem because the car is not under manufacture warranty..”
