Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I have already replaced the oil filter adapter housing as many have complained about, but I am still having an oil leak just a few months later. Now when I drive sometimes the accelerator goes out so I just cruise until it comes back on. It happens at highway speeds and in town driving”
NHTSA complaint #11217707, filed 2019-06, 90,000 miles“At multiple times when putting my van into drive it makes a hard clunk and has been making a chirping sound. Took it to dealer that I just baught it from. And they claim nothing is wrong and could not duplicate my complaints. Also has a very strong burning platinum oder when driving.”
NHTSA complaint #10730469, filed 2015-06, 42,000 miles“This is a new vehicle. Right around 6100 miles, I started hearing irritating noise at speeds around 30-40 MPH. The dealership is not able to resolve the issue and Chrysler seems to have no solution as well. They basically say it is drivable so I have to live with it. This noise is persistent and louder than when we first noticed it (8200 miles now). No repair, no replacement, nothing but a continual noise.”
NHTSA complaint #10585845, filed 2014-05, 6,100 miles“Purchased 2013 Chrysler Town And Country in july of 2020 and it had a clean record, was a former carmax vehicle and my independent mechanic reviewed the vehicle and deemed it a good purchase. I have since cared for the vehicle and it has run well until recently several error codes came up. P0300, p0456, p0455, p0175. I took it to my mechanic and they said this could be a vehicle manufacturer issue. The codes say something about evp leak, misfire and system running too rich. This should be investigated to ensure a recall isn't necessary. …”
NHTSA complaint #11406732, filed 2021-04, 89,000 miles“Car continue to turn off. Engine and electric problem as well. Took it to numerous auto repair shops and waisted a lot of money. Nothing got fixed said it's a manufacturing problem, mechanics try to fix but failed to do to it's a manufacturing problem. Recall these vans!!! Kids are in these van's and they just cutt off in the middle of the highway and I've changed out everything, nothing works! Shuts off randomly in the streets and highways! Big safety hassard!! Recall them all! My cousin has a dodge one and it does the exact samething.”
