When owners complained
A spike years after the car went on sale usually means a part wearing
out on schedule across the whole fleet — the kind of pattern no single

NHTSA investigations into the 1990 Dodge Dodge Truck
An investigation is the step before a recall: the agency has seen enough

something may be wrong and nothing has been fixed yet.
