1 Front Suspension Control Arm problem

Failure Date: 04/29/2016

I was driving on the highway and the car started shaking when I reached 65 mph. When I got to 70 mph, it stopped I thought I was okay but I wasn't. The tire separated from the axle and the lower control arm fell off causing me to crash. I ran into a guardrail and if it wasn't there, the car wouldn't have stopped and I could possibly be dead. Upon impact, the air bags didn't deploy either. This is life threatening. Something needs to be done abou this vehicle!!! this isn't the first time the control arm fell off. It fell off 3 other times to. I am fed up with Chrysler. They won't do anything about this vehicle. It is a casket on wheels. It is a death trap and the next time something like this happens, the person might not live to tell the story. Hopefully nothing like this happens but if it does, maybe it will wake Chrysler the hell up!!!!.

2 Front Suspension Control Arm problem

Failure Date: 10/23/2015

The right lower control arm has broken off for the second time as I was driving straight.

3 Front Suspension Control Arm problem

Failure Date: 08/28/2015

I bought a brand new 2015 Dodge Dart and 64 days after purchasing the lower control arm broke off in the middle of driving down the freeway causing the wheel to get lodged into the fender and jam the door. Chrysler refuses to cover the repairs nor will they allow the manufactures warranty to cover the repairs. I have been without a car for 5 months during this time I have lost my job had to relocate my family to a smaller home and now have a credit score of 394 when 6 months ago it was a 720. Chrysler needs to be stopped because they are careless individuals who do not care about the well being of its consumers. This is not the first time a control arm has broken and it will not be the last time if something isn't done about it the next person may not live to tell their story and that is very sad to even imagine.
