Example complaints

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

“I flipped on my brights, while driving on back roads at night. The dash lights all lit up, the light brightness began blinking in and out, and even the radio switched off and on. When I turned the brights off, the airbag light stayed lit, then the stability assist light lit back up. I flipped the brights on again, with the same result as the first time.”

“All lights are flashing and there are weird noises from under hood .van does not want to start. There is clicking noise under tipm module. I am lucky it did not break while driving because we use it as a family car. From what I read on internet it seems like a tipm failure . And. It happens 1 month after my warranty had expired.”

NHTSA complaint #11152264, filed 2018-11, 47,000 miles

“Tire pressure warning light stuck on constantly now both front seat head rests have popped open loudly one while driving and the other whole car turned off and parked. Cannot comfortable sit in seat any longer and if it had popped while I was in the seat I'd have had neck problems”

NHTSA complaint #11376456, filed 2020-11, 102,000 miles

“Our alternator on our return trip on vacation went out. Our 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan only has just over 50,000 miles on it. Alternators should last at least 100,000 miles. Chrysler would not acknowledge our complaint and would not reimburse us for the cost of the faulty alternator. Alternators on 2014 Dodge grand caravans should be inspected by the government.”

NHTSA complaint #10930221, filed 2016-12, 50,000 miles

“How come we were notified of what appears to be a fairly simple recall at least 6 months ago (to replace a window switch) and nothing has happened. It appears that this recall along with many others are just being ignored by the car companies. Is there no time limit or enforcement with these recalls? My feeling is that if the car companies can wait long enough these cars will age-out and go away.”
