This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
A weld that secured the lower right suspension failed on my 1997 Dodge Dakota due to "hard" braking. This failure could have resulted in a serious accident and significant property damage. I believe that such a failure should never occur due to normal use. I believe that this weld should be inspected on all vehicles with this particular suspension system. My phone call to Chrysler customer service did not indicate any interest in follow up on this potentially dangerous manufacturing defect.
