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 noticed that the Dodge Intrepid 3.5L engines are being recalled per the NHTSA campaign id# 98V184000. I took a copy of the recall to my Dodge dealer because my car has a fuel leak on the fuel rail. I had replaced a fuel injector on the rail in December for a fuel leak, and it ends up the rail is leaking too. The Dodge dealer took the car in, with this recall number and told me on 1/7/99 that they do not have any record of a recall, and will charge me to fix the car. The recall was announced on the radio, and I have this NHTSA recall printed out as well. The part they need is on national backorder as well, basically I have a car that if I drive it, I can get hurt due to the fact that they can't fix it due to no parts available and they refused to give me a rental car free while they fix my defective car. I don't understand why it was recalled and the dealer will not take care of it. I sure am not satisfied with Dodge's concern for having my car on the road with a fuel leak. Please respond to me about what I can do to get them to fix this car per the recall instead of me having to pay hundreds of dollars to fix it. The problem as well is the part is on national backorder and they told me it will take 2weeks to 2 months to get the parts. Should a car manufacturer have responsibility to provide a vehicle due to their safety hazard. I can't believe I have to pay a car payment for a car I can't drive, and they can't even fix the recall.
