About These NHTSA Complaints:
The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
The first problem began with the timing belt breaking, I returned to casino auto sales to find a solution, their mechanic " fixed" the problem so I thought only to have the same problem occur again about a month and half later with a bad fuel pump added to the problem so I went somewhere else to have that fixed. About a week after I purchased the vehicle I was taken to sears to purchase a new set of tires, I was told by a sears rep. That I was lucky to not have had an accident because the wrong size tires were put on the car which caused me to have problems with the right passenger side tired with wobbling. My vehicle then began to smoke from the steering coloum whenever the head lights are turned on, I havent even bothered to go back to casino because I wouldnt trust them to actuaalt fix it the right and honest way do to the fact that I bought the car with cash so they basically sold me a lemon.

Fire started inside of vehicle possibly due to short circuit of remote mirror wiring or motor on driver's side. Discovered by daughter upon opening driver's door to go to work. At first, she realized that the outside driver's mirror was hanging down from the vehicle. Upon opening door, flames emerged from the interior, slightly burning her on the arm. All heavy burn damage seems to be at the area of the motor and switch for the remote mirrors. The interior suffered total loss. No electrical alterations were done to the vehicle. All componets on the vehicle are factory installed. Can't seem to get through to Chrysler for any assistance. Vehicle is of course out of warranty (3yr - 36,000)
