Example complaints

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

“My teenage driver was on the highway and had complete loss of power, she managed to pull to side of highway. The vehicle started right up and we merged back on the highway only to have a complete loss of power again. We turned the car off and waited 10 minutes. The car started and we made it home. Two days later while on a rural road the vehicle shut off again. All wires and connections checked out tight. Waiting to have it towed as don't want to risk an accident.”

“My 2009 Dodge journey vehicle is possessed as it sometimes leaves us stranded after running out on a short errand, so after stopping and parking the vehicle for short period of time then it will not start. We've tried to electrically jump the battery but this has no effect. It seems if you give it some time, perhaps to cool off like 30 minutes the car will start again. We've replaced the battery three (3) times in the past 18 months but the problem continues. The electrical power windows will not open but then they do. …”
