NHTSA Complaint #11096808 — 2010 DODGE CALIBER

"TAKATA RECALL"MY WIFE AND I PURCHASED A VEHICLE AND WE THOUGHT WE GOT A GOOD DEAL UNTIL THE CAR QUICKLY BECAME A DEATH TRAP THAT WAS SO UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THE STEERING WOULD PULL TOO THE LEFT AND WHEN WE WENT AROUND A BRIDGE ON THE FREEWAY OR ANY TURNING OF THE WHEEL. WE HAD TO STABILIZE THE CAR BECAUSE IT WOULD ALMOST HOP TO THE LEFT AND THERE WOULD BE A LOT OF TRAFFIC REGARDLESS ON FREEWAY OR STREETS. WE TOLD THEM THERE WAS A LAPSE IN THE SPEED AND THIS HAS JUST BEEN A NIGHTMARE. WE ALREADY PAID ALMOST ALL THE CAR AND WE STILL HAVE OUR WARRANTY BUT THEY WANT US TO PAY 400 DOLLARS, WHAT WE PAY AS A CAR PYMT EVERY MONTH. OR THEY SAID THEY'D FINANCE THE WORK THEY DO ON THE CAR THROUGH CAR FINANCE DEPARTMENT. MY WIFE SAID ABSOLUTELY NOT. WE HAVE KIDS AND INSTEAD OF ENJOYING TIME IN THE CAR, WE'VE SPENT STRESSED PAYING FOR IT SINCE THE FIRST WEEK. WE'VE BEEN TO THE POINT OF SO MUCH FEAR TO FEELING AS THOUGH IT'S AN ICY DAY AND THE ROADS ARE WET AND SO SLIPPERY BUT THE PROBLEM IS... IT WASN'T EVEN RAINING OR SNOWING.. FEAR OF CRASHING OR SOMETHING BREAKING. MY WIFE READ A LOT ABOUT THE SAME THING HAPPENING WITH OUR VEHICLE. SHE SAW TOO MANY PEOPLE, IUST LIKE US AND IT SAID RECALLED, BUT IT SAID THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN REPORTED THAT SHOULD BE RECALLED BUT HASN'T BEEN AT THAT TIME. I'M REPORTING THIS BECAUSE WE AREN'T GOING TO PAY TO DIE IN A CAR THE MECHANIC DIDN'T EVEN WANT TO DRIVE FAR BECAUSE IT WASN'T SAFE!! THE MECHANIC FROM THE SAME DEALERSHIP WE PURCHASED THE CARFROM
