Verbatim excerpts from NHTSA complaints, by component

Air bags

26 reports
“The contact owns a 2007 Chrysler Crossfire. The contact was advised of NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V081000 (AIR BAGS). The vehicle was taken to several dealers; however, the dealers refused to complete the recall repair. The contact was informed that since the vehicle was an older model, the dealers did not have the appropriate equipment to code the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue and advised the contact that a Takata field inspector would reach out. The contact was informed that the air bag sensor had failed; however, due to the age of the vehicle and the equipment not being available, the air bag sensor would fail. The failure persisted, and the vehicle remained at the residence unrepaired. The vehicle was no longer driven out of safety concerns. The failure mileage was approximately 13,400.”

13 reports
“ON MAY 18, 2020 AS I WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 25 MPH, I HEARD A SCRAPING NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR GLASS AREA. I PULLED OVER TO DETERMINE WHAT WAS THE PROBLEM. I THEN NOTICED THE REAR GLASS WINDOW HAD FALLEN INTO THE CAR, HELD INTACT BY THE REAR DEFROSTER CORD CATCHING IT AND LOOSELY DANGLING IN THE BREEZE. I INFORMED CHRYSLER OF THIS PROBLEM (CHRYSLER CUSTOMER HOTLINE 1-800-992-1997, CASE NUMBER 76293394), BUT THEY OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE, EVEN THOUGH I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS ISSUE AND HAVE FOUND MANY COMPLAINTS THROUGH GOOGLE AND YOUR OWN WEBSITE, NHTSA.GOV. IF I HAD BEEN DRIVING AT AN INTERSTATE SPEED OF 65 MPH, THE GLASS COULD HAVE ENTERED THE VEHICLE AND KILLED ME! I HAVE ALSO LEARNED THAT CHRYSLER GAVE A 10 YEAR/100,000 MILE WARRANTY TO OWNERS OF 2005 CROSSFIRES WITH THE SAME ISSUE! I DEMAND NOT ONLY AN APOLOGY FROM CHRYSLER ALONG WITH A NO CHARGE REPAIR OF THIS CONDITION, BUT ALSO THE SAME TREATMENT 2005 OWNERS RECEIVED, THE 10 YEAR/100,000 MILE WARRANTY. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN METICULOUSLY MAINTAINED SINCE DELIVERY, DRIVEN SPARINGLY, AND GARAGED NIGHTLY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE IN THIS MATTER. *TR”
