A few complaints as filed, shortened and with personal details removed. The first ones are among the most serious reports for this model year; the rest are typical.
Violent deployment of driver's/passenger's air bags during rear end collision t 5 MPH, resulted in tearing off passenger's thumb and severe hand damage.
Driving vehicle at speed 30MPH, under the hood engine compartment fire due to an electrical short; also, loss of power .
Vehicle drops out of third gear to second gear slowing vehicle down. Dealer has been contacted. Vehicle is on second repair. Please provide further information. Ph
Driver's side door hinge has failed. Door does not close properly. Since door has "falled" and is not aligned, the opening action has crumpled the front quarterpanel, paint is now flawed. Now a repaint and body work is needed. Have noticed other lebarons with this same tell-tale damage; this is evidently a design defect. I understand that jeep products suffer from this flaw also.
