“About 2 weeks after I bought it things startes happening,it was used with no warranty,my fault but I can't aford to fix Dodge's mistakes. When it caught on fire I was going to work and was late besides almost wrecking. This vehicle is not safe. I want to trade it in and get something else but no one will take this car.”
NHTSA complaint #727480, filed 2000-08“The paint has been peeling for the last 4 years. I contacted Dodge, they said talk to the dealer. The dealer said sense there is no recall by Dodge, they would give us a discount on a paint job. I see this problem with most of the 1993 Dodge shadows in this area. I have a neighbor who purchased hers from another dealer. The dealer repainted her car twice now at no charge to her. No safety defect mentione din summary.”
NHTSA complaint #707206, filed 1999-06“The paint is peeling on the entire car, but especially on the hood. As the paint peels it flies off of the car and the paint chips cause an obstructed driving view. I have seen dozens of other Dodge cars in my town with the same problem. No safety defect.”
