1993 DODGE DYNASTY — Complaint #165571

Open-data reference.

NHTSA Complaint about SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:SLACK ADJUSTERS filed August 23, 1999

NHTSA complaint #165571 (ODI reference 547530) concerns a 1993 DODGE DYNASTY and was filed on August 23, 1999. The owner reports the failure occurred on April 6, 1999. The report was geocoded to California based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as service brakes, air:slack adjusters, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.

The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. No VIN was supplied by the filer, so this complaint contributes to model-year trend data but cannot be tied to a specific vehicle.

Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same DODGE DYNASTY cohort independently describe similar service brakes, air:slack adjusters failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 1993 DODGE DYNASTY shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
