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.
I was recently notified that the tow rating of the Dodge Dakota R/T only was lowered from 6400 lbs to 2000 lbs. I found out on a website. I contacted Chrysler and was told this was true, that it was lowered in Feb 99 and I would receive a letter in the mail regarding my options. They would not tell me why it was lowered. I asked if it was a safety or performance issue. They would not say. It took 2 months to get the letter and all it was a yellow card to put in my owner's manual saying that the tow capacity was now 2000 lbs. All the literature I have along with my owner's manual says 6400 lbs and apparently, Chrysler is still advertising 6400 lbs.
