Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
0
InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
0
Crash or fire reportedComplaints whose submitter recorded that a crash or a fire occurred. These are the reporter's own answers on the NHTSA form, not verified findings.

Brakes
Filed Mar 18, 2026

The contact owns a 1993 N/A Chrysler New Yorker. The contact stated that the vehicle was experiencing longer braking distances and that the ABS and check brakes warning light was illuminated. The contact had taken the vehicle to a local dealer and was unable to determine the cause of the failure because the dealer did not have the proper tool for the diagnostic test. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact researched online and related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 96V099000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulic). The contact stated that there was an extended warranty for the ABS components for 10 YEARS/100,000 MILES, except for the brake actuator piston assembly and the pump-motor assembly. The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 88,300.

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.
