Example complaints

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

“I had a problem with the electronic injection for more than 3 times, and a piece that was solved was replaced. A short time later, on my alternator, it had to be changed. Now I'm having trouble with my air conditioner, which freezes and stops to freeze suddenly. Probably an electrical problem or some part that does not start and does not start the compressor.”

“I took my vehicle to a garage to have a check engine light looked at. It was determined that it is the active grill shutter switch. They stated that they would have to order the part and do some rewiring. If there is no recall, why would rewiring of anything be need to repair the issue, and not just replacing the part.”

“As my vehicle accelerates there is hesitation and then the car lurches. This occurs mostly when coming from a complete stop. The dealer has been unable to find any codes' related to this. In addition, on december 11, 2017, the car hesitated and then lurched forward with such force that my head hit the headrest and I thought my car was hit from behind.”

“I have recently been notified of a recall number u64. There is another one, u50, which is pending and I have not been notified yet. Additionally, I have experienced while driving that the Chrysler Pacifica jerks when I am driving approximately 35 MPH and or highway speed. I am concern that this Chrysler Pacifica 2017 is starting having problems in such an early stage.”

“1- cruise control cancel is in the wrong place change it with the resume? 2- headlight control should be on the other side as it can be changed by my knee? 3- the alarm system doesn't recognize motorcycles and as such you start to stop watching your back? 4- brake pedal is to small and I find myself missing it? 5- the side mirrors do not go in and out automatically.”
