Consumer Description

MY LOCAL MECHANIC WAS LOOKING FOR A RECURRING RATTLE IN THE FRONT RIGHT WHEEL AREA, AND ASKED ME TO LOOK AT THE CORROSION ON THE FRONT SUBFRAME. HE COMMENTED THAT HE KNEW CHRYSLER HAD A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THIS FRAME AND THAT HE ALSO KNEW THAT CHRYSLER IS UNWILLING TO COVER THE COST TO REPAIR THIS INFERIOR PORTION OF THE VEHICLE. THE INTERNET IS FULL OF OTHERS WHO HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM. I AM ASKING NHTSA TO INTERCEDE WITH CHRYSLER AND ENCOURAGE THEM TO COVER THE REPAIR OF THIS POTENTIALLY FATAL FLAW IN THEIR PRODUCT, AND HAVE A RECALL ISSUED FOR ALL MODELS WITH THIS PROBLEM, AND NOT THE NARROW ONE MONTH MANUFACTURING WINDOW THAT CHRYSLER SEEMS TO THINK IS ADEQUATE TO COVER WITH AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. *TR
