Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The driver's seat frame on my 1998 Plymouth Breeze has broken completely through on the right side and 3/4 of the way through on the left side during normal use. Had I not taken the seat out to determine why I was leaning back and to the right, I wouldn't have known about this defect until the frame broke completely on the left side also, which would probably have caused me to fall over backwards while driving down the street (or freeway). As indicated by my e-mail correspondence with chrysler customer service, chrysler doesn't seem to be terribly concerned about it. …”
NHTSA complaint #10072971, filed 2004-05, 107,000 miles“While driving on a back road stopped to make a left turn into a corner store, and waiting for oncoming traffic to stop, a ford explorer rear ended consumer's vehicle. The impact pushed vehicle across the opposite side of traffic onto the shoulder of the road. Trunk was in the back seat of the car, and the two front seats collapsed and broke. Contacted manufacturer, and he will be sending an investigator.”
