Example complaints

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

“I have a 2006 Chrysler pt cruiser convertible. In cold weather the drop down windows do not drop. This makes it impossible to open the passenger and driver doors. When this happens the door windows will not allow door to open. After pulling and forcing the door open it will then not seal or close. It has been happening and I took it to dealer and they 'fixed' it. It is still doing this and they deny knowing what is wrong. I found a recall but no one can stop the issue. My car door integrity is being compromised.”
