Not enough dated records to plot a meaningful trend — 2 months of data.
Complaints grouped by the component NHTSA recorded
Percentages are of component mentions. A single complaint can name more than one component, so these do not sum to the total complaint count.
No recalls in our database for this model year
That does not guarantee a specific vehicle is unaffected — recalls are issued against VINs, and new campaigns are announced regularly. Check a VIN on NHTSA.gov.
Reports submitted to NHTSA, shown in the owner's own words
DT: 1990, CHRYSLER, LEBARON TRANS AXLE FLOOR SHIFTER PARK INTERLOCK SYSTEM. TOOK THE KEY OUT AND WITHOUT PUTTING VEHICLE INTO PARK THE CAR WILL ROLL EVEN WHEN THE MOTOR IS TURNED OFF. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME CONSUMER STOPPED THE VEHICLE. THE CAR ROLLED DOWN THE HILL AND DAMAGED THE CAR, HOUSE, AND FENCE. *AK
WHEN TRYING TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL, AT ANY SPEED IT WOULD MAKE A CLICKING NOICE AND SOMETIMES WOULD BE VERY DIFFICULT TO TURN ( STEERING WHEEL WOULD JUST STOP SPINNING IN THE MIDDLE OF TURNING THE WHEEL AND WOULD NEED TO BE FORCED INTO THE TURN ) LATER FOUND THAT THE CRUISE CONTROL NEVER WORKED BECAUSE THE REPAIR CENTER SAID THE CLOCKSPRING HAD FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED THIS IS A 300.00 EXPENSE. THERE IS NO DISCOUNT OR ANYTHING EVEN THO THIS PART ALSO CONTROLS THE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY WHICH EVIDENTLY IS NOT A SAFETY FEATURE ... IT IS A LUXORY. ANY INFORMATION YOU CAN GIVE ME ABOUT THIS WOULD BE NICE.*AK
A bulletin sent by a manufacturer to its dealers. Not a recall, and repairs are not necessarily free.

Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.
Complaint and recall counts across every year of this model
Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers. Older model years have had longer for reports to accumulate.
