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.
TPMS sounds warning alarm and light when driving - although tire pressures are fine. This has happened many times in the nearly 2 years of ownership and been to the dealer 3 times for attempted repairs. The audible alarm is also so loud it scares me when it goes off - and is not adjustable. This is not safe when I am driving, particularly in traffic. I don't want to feel that I have to stop on the roadside and check the tires when the system is giving me a false positive. Dealer has no answers. Said to just hit the reset button. The system is worthless - it's like the boy that cries wolf -- it goes off but you start to ignore it because it's never right. Chrysler/Fiat needs to remedy this.
The vehicle's alarm (horn and flashers) periodically goes off while driving. It will sometimes stop on its own, but typically requires that the car is shut off to stop the alarm. The event does not happen with any consistency and will sometimes happen two or three times in a day, but sometimes will not happen for two or three weeks. It has happened when driving on both the freeway and city roads. When taken to the dealership, they say that the problem cannot be duplicated, no codes were present to explain the occurrence, and the problem continues to go unresolved.
This car has been towed in 3 times with stating problems, engine leaking oil and all lights coming on dash. It has been back to dealer 7 times and I only have 4700 miles on a 1 year old car. Each time the car was parked in my driveway
While driving the vehicle my alarm goes off. Horn beeps and flashes flash. The only way to make it stop is to pull over and turn car off. This has happened 4 times. The car was bought new on Dec 4, 2017 the 1st time was Dec 5. and so on. The car is in the shop now.
