Example complaints

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

“I bought this used and there are only shoulder seatbelts in the driver and passenger front. All the other seats have only lap belts. I cannot safely strap in my daughter in her booster seat. I asked Dodge and they can't tell if it was supposed to come with harness belts. The used car dealership doesn't either. I thought it was mandatory so I didn't check this when I bought it.”
