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.
Power steering pump/pully fell off taking out the water pump and serpentine belt. Unable to drive, was able to get off the road without incident. Never heard of a power steering pump falling off. Estimate to repair $767. Had vehicle maintained at dealer a couple of months ago. Vehicle has never been taken off road.
Dealer said no warrenty coverage for manifold due to mileage and age. Called Chrysler help line and told maybe cold water or rain got on it and agreed I should have bought extended warrenty. Why isn't the manifold covered under the emission control warrenty. What is more important then getting the exhaust gas to the converter? instead it goes to the air and creates a safety problem if it gets in the passenger compartment. I see your data bank has other manifold failures alredy and service notices of head bolt maifold issues. Looks like a mfg. Defect since these vehicles are so young. The fuel pump was fixed under warrenty, the car would't start right. The power steering unit continues to leak slowly and the dealer suggest a seal leaking but I have to pay to fix. Great car!
Flywheel grinds a hole in the plastic reservoir, allowing fluid to leak out, addition to spraying power steering fluid all over engine when fluid leaks onto the fan blade, replace power steering fluid reservoir, new unit worked its way loose after two weeks.
