Example complaints

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

“The engine cradle frame cracked at the weld, which inturn ripped the front axle out from the wheel. I contacted chrysler, they said as a good will gesture they would pay for the axle, but that I should expect the frame to crack on car that old. The car has never been in any accidents and I feel that I was lucky that I diddn't loose control of the car and kill myself, my family or someone from on coming traffic since it was the left front wheel which came off.”

NHTSA complaint #704911, filed 1999-03

“Recal 99v215000/engine cradle: prior to receiving this recall notice vehicle experienced problem with repairs done on transaxle hub/welded chassis, and control arm. Dealer notified of engine cradle recall, and repairs were done. But dealer wanted to charge consumer for work done on suspension due to control arm breakage before this recall notice was received.”
