Example complaints

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

“I have 2 son-in-laws who have had similar failure and after questioning several dealer repair faciities this appears to be a design default. When the bolt shears that holds the pulley you lose all power, cooling, steering capability and had I been traveling down I-95 at the posted speed limit I would have surely been involved in an accident. I contacted Chrysler customer relations at their 1-800 number and they informed me that this was not a covered item in extended warranty and that they would not cover any repairs. …”
