Open-data reference.

NHTSA Complaint about LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:TRUNK LID:LATCH:EMERGENCY MECHANICAL RELEASE filed July 31, 2025

NHTSA complaint #2115800 (ODI reference 11677433) concerns a 2017 CHRYSLER 300 and was filed on July 31, 2025. The owner reports the failure occurred on July 29, 2025. The report was geocoded to District of Columbia based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as latches/locks/linkages:trunk lid:latch:emergency mechanical release, 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. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.

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 CHRYSLER 300 cohort independently describe similar latches/locks/linkages:trunk lid:latch:emergency mechanical release 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 2017 CHRYSLER 300 shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
