Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I had an accident where the vehicle suddenly steered to the left. I did a 360 plus 90. I was going around a bend to the left at the time. There was a light rain at the time but I was not exceeding the speed limit and I have driven this road many times in the past. The front passenger tire was completely torn form the car. After it was towed and I had a chance to see the damage, I noticed a dark black mark about 5/8 of an inch by 1/4 inch on the broken ball joint. …”
NHTSA complaint #10780025, filed 2015-10, 110,000 miles“While I was driving my spare tire broke loose and fell off lodging itself under my Town And Country mini van. This brought my car to a halt with no warning brake lights. Cars had to swarm on the grass to avoid an accident. Luckily I was in a neighborhood. If I had been on the highway a lot of people may have died, it would have caused a pile up of cars. A tire should never be placed where it can fall off and cause a safety problem where lives are in jeopardy. Chrysler would not even put a new bracket to hold my spare tire. …”
NHTSA complaint #10978685, filed 2017-04, 58,000 miles“The spare tire carriers do not release the tire. This can be dangerous on the highway when trying to change a tire. The cable releases but the tire stays up. You have to lay on the ground get your legs under the car while it is jacked up and with try to kick the tire loose. Very dangerous! We have a fleet of dodge / Chrysler mini vans most have experienced the issue. When we were notified of the toyota campaign I immediately thought why Chrysler has not done anything about this potentially dangerous situation.”
NHTSA complaint #10615214, filed 2014-07, 159,000 miles“The contact stated while driving 60 MPH on the interstate, the passenger rear tire suddenly went flat without warning. The vehicle slid across the interstate and hit a guardrail. There was damage done to the vehicle. The police was at the scene, but a report was not filed. A tire dealership examined the tire and determined there was nothing wrong with the tire; however the air valve on the wheel was leaking air. The dealership repaired the air valve.”
