Example complaints

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

“Our Dodge Intrepid was parked in our front yard with the engine off for about 10 minutes and we smelled something burning. We looked outside and the engine of our car was in flames. We had to call the local fire department to come and put the fire out. They had to pry the hood up because the engine was on fire so bad that it had melted the hood latch cable to the outer part of the cable. The car is a complete loss. The engine is totally ruined. We never received any information about any recalls and I have done some research and there was a recall on these cars for this exact problem. …”
