Example complaints

“When you hit the brakes a noise comes out of the rear brakes (more on the rear passenger side) and I feel a small vibration on the brake pedal. When I let go of the pedal the noise stops.this happens when the car is moving and is worse if you pulling a trailer at 50 to 60 MPH. It's been happening since I got the car 6/15/2019.”

NHTSA complaint #11282760, filed 2019-11, 180,000 miles

“I have to completely replace the under carriage/frame of my Chrysler Pacifica due to it corroding & rusting out the passenger wheel framework. This is a safety hazard seeing as if a large pothole was hit or an immediate braking were needed the entire tire could snap off & cause a major accident. I am fearful to drive my car.”

NHTSA complaint #11271026, filed 2019-10, 156,000 miles

“I was traveling down the road and was turning slightly at a curve at the road, I was traveling at approximately 25-30 MPH and the car just shut off completely. It did start back up and has driven ok but was told it was a previous recall issue but I haven't been able to find it so I'm taking the next step.”

NHTSA complaint #11119510, filed 2018-08, 111,300 miles

“Driving down the road, our car started throwing itself into other lanes. Mind you, everything is good on the vehicle. Struts, tie rod ends, etc... Upon observation, you can see the engine cradle is rotted out. The rest of the car is good. Mechanics say the car needs to be removed from service. 130,000 miles...really? This is our only car. Chrysler (online) says tough .....”

NHTSA complaint #10837355, filed 2016-02, 130,000 miles

“The engine cradle is rotted and the engine may fall out. I've read what other people had said and it is a known issue that Chrysler is aware of and is a extremely serious issue and to repair this issue is not cheap also. Please help me”
