Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Upon arriving for my scheduled oil change and tire exchange from snows to summer, I was informed that my tie rod ends on both front wheels needed to be replaced as they were not safe to drive on. So I instructed them to go ahead and fix it as I needed to be able to drive the vehicle and safety is the most important issue when you transport your child on a regular basis (as well as myself). I didn't realize at that time this was something that is covered under warranty or I would have gone to a daimlerchrysler/Dodge dealer to get it fixed. …”
NHTSA complaint #10329526, filed 2010-05, 33,081 miles“Had vehicle six years and had to replace the front ( left and right) tension struts four times. Major flaw in vehicle where tension struts fail after a few months and need to be replaced. Loud clunking noise is heard every time vehicle encounters a bump or imperfection in the road. Sounds like vehicle is falling apart. Believe chrysler's engineers should redesign part and have it replaced on vehicles experiencing this problem.”
NHTSA complaint #10546884, filed 2013-10, 68,011 miles“Premature busing and control arms failure, leading to loss of steering control and premature tire wear,harsh noise and poor absorption of road hazards ( uneven roads, or pots holes lead to abrupt steering movement).”
NHTSA complaint #10436430, filed 2011-11, 89,500 miles“1. Normal driving on city streets and highways. 2. Ball joints and control arms wear within months of repair. Right side control arm broke and caused car to veer violently to the left with limited to no control of the vehicle by driver. Also significant damage to right side tire. 3. Vehicle had needed both control arms and ball joints repaired (again) due to vehicle upgrades by Dodge if one control arm is damage both control arms on vehicle must be replace along with tires which are usually damaged, causing the owner additional and unexpected costs.”
NHTSA complaint #10356789, filed 2010-09, 42,330 miles“The car shakes and shimmies. It has been doing it for a few years and keeps getting worse. The higher the speed the more it shakes. It shakes right up the steering column into the steering wheel. I fear the shaking will result in other parts failing which could lead to an accident. Car is very scary to drive. If a steering rod fails because of this it could be catastrophic.”
