“Replaced batteries, and power steering went out, it put my vehicle out of alignment... I tried getting an alignment at local Firestone. Told me they could not connect to the angle sensors and that I need to get a new rack and pinion”

NHTSA complaint #11748362, filed 2026-07

“After about 3mins of driving my vehicle I started to smell burning plastic, a couple seconds later I saw a view black squiggly lines which was smoke which made me look around. At that point I saw the USB port engulfed in flames. As I was driving I panicked and pulled over on the side of the road and looked for something to put the fire out. I thankfully had a bottle of water in my vehicle which I was able to pour over the fire to put it out. …”

“I am writing to formally request assistance regarding a persistent and unresolved issue with my vehicle’s Uconnect system, which has now escalated into a serious safety concern. I purchased my vehicle in April 2022. Within two weeks, I began receiving an error message stating: “Uconnect Box requires service. Please visit an authorized dealer.” Since then, I have brought the vehicle to Cutter Dodge Honolulu on multiple occasions, beginning on June 1, 2022, to address this issue. …”

“My driver side front LED turn signal has failed after 42,890 miles. My safety and others safety is affected as my drivers side front LED turn signal is no longer functioning which makes it hard for others to know I’m turning left. The turn signal has stopped functioning on Monday, Aug 25th 2025 resulting in it not functioning since. Warning light shows on dashboard in “stored messages” on instrument cluster (pics and video of both can be provided). The vehicle has not been inspected by the dealership or anyone else yet. …”

“Radio screens keep going bad causing the backup camera to not work until after a power cycle of the screen takes place. Sometimes a power cycle is not possible and the screen take a minute or two to turn on. I have had multiple radios in our car do this. I was told at the dealership that Stellantis admits they have a design flaw which causes the radio to overheat and melt the components in the radio unit. This is a series safety concern, not only because of the backup camera not displaying but a possible fire hazard if components are over heating.”
