Example complaints

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

“This complaint is in reference to NHTSA recall, campaaign id number: 99v213000. On 2/12/05, the liftgate bolts on my 1993 Dodge Grand Caravan failed suddenly. The Dodge dealer would not honor the recall and repair the problem. Instead, I was charged $201.18 for the repair. I think that the daimerchrysler corporation should honor their responsibility to repair the problem as stipulated in the recall notice.”
