CarComplaints.com Notes: This is a classic example of why you should avoid the first model year of a new car. Sure, it's new and shiny but there's going to be some growing pains.
This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The contact owns a 2005 Dodge Magnum. The contact received a recall notice for the driver side air bag and fuel pump. The contact took the vehicle to be repaired at lakeshore Chrysler (330 E howze beach rd, in slidell, la). After the repair, the contact was informed by the technician that a code was found for the weight sensor circuit on the front passenger seat, which failed and needed to be replaced. Until the sensor was replaced, both the driver and passenger side air bags could deactivate and would have to be repaired at the contact's expense. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The NHTSA campaign numbers were unknown. The approximate failure mileage was 200,092.
