EXTERIOR LIGHTING
I HAVE NOTICED THAT MANY NEW LED HEADLIGHTS ARE OUT AND WITHOUT EXCEPTION, THIS IS ON NEW CHRYSLER VEHICLES. I NOTICE THIS SEVERAL TIMES A WEEK. I OBSERVED ONE HEADLIGHT GOING OUT AS THE SIGNAL WAS ENGAGED. THIS FACT MAKES ME THINK IT IS A GROUND PROBLEM BUT I AM NOT SURE. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.

SEATS, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
ON THE EVENING OF MAY 3RD, 2016 I RETURNED TO MY VEHICLE AFTER WORK TO FIND THAT THE DRIVER HEAD RESTRAINT HAD BEEN DEPLOYED FOR UNKNOWN REASONS. EARLIER THAT DAY I WENT TO THE BANK ALL WAS WELL THE HEAD RESTRAINT WAS COMPLETELY INTACT. AT APPROXIMATELY 5:05PM I RETURNED TO MY VEHICLE TO HEAD HOME AND NOTICED THAT I COULD NOT REST MY HEAD AS I DO ON A DAILY BASIS ON MY DRIVE HOME. MY CONCERNS ARE THAT IF I WERE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC OR ON THE FREEWAY AND IT UNEXPECTEDLY DEPLOYED POTENTIALLY CAUSING AN ACCIDENT OR WORSE DUE TO A CHAIN REACTION. I IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED THE CHRYSLER RECALL CENTER. FILED A COMPLAINT, ISSUED A CASE NUMBER AND WAS TOLD THAT SOMEONE WOULD BE CONTACTING ME TO INVESTIGATE WITH A POSSIBLE RESOLUTION. I HAVE NOT BEEN CONTACTED AS OF 5/9/2016. I ALSO FOLLOWED UP ON THE CASE FRIDAY MAY 6TH . THE CASE NUMBER HAD NOT BEEN ASSIGNED. I'M LOOKING FOR A RESOLUTION AS TO WHY THIS HAPPENED UNEXPECTEDLY AND WHAT IF ANYTHING WOULD BE MY OPTIONS. IF THIS HAS HAPPENED TO OTHER, THIS COULD POTENTIALLY BECOME A SAFETY HAZARD.

2012 CHRYSLER 200 SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING (SLOWING DOWN COMING TO A STOP SIGN) WITH NO WARNING. ALL POWER WAS GONE. THIS HAPPENED IN JULY OF 2015 AND TIPM WAS REPLACED UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY. TOLD ANOTHER FAULTY TIPM AND WAS REPLACED UNDER PART WARRANTY WITH NO COST TO ME. ANY TIME A VEHICLE SHUTS OFF WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING IS EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS!

STEERING
STARTING OVER 1 YEAR AGO, MY CAR HAS PULLED TO THE RIGHT AT ALL TIMES AND MORE DRASTICALLY AT HIGHER SPEEDS. THE STEERING WHEEL ALSO STARTS VIBRATING AND SHAKING WHEN OVER 55 MPH. THIS CAR HAS BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP AT LEAST 10 TIMES FOR ALIGNMENTS, NEW STRUTS, NEW TIE RODS, NEW TIRES, AND SEVERAL OTHER FIXES. NONE OF THESE REPAIRS HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM, AND SOME OF THESE ACTUALLY MADE IT WORSE. I NO LONGER FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR AND FEAR CRASHING DUE TO THE EXTREME PULL TO THE RIGHT. I JUST PICKED IT UP FROM THE DEALERSHIP AFTER THEY ADJUSTED THE CAMBERS AND ALIGNED IT TO PULL TO THE LEFT TO COMPENSATE THE RIGHT PULL, WHICH DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM.

I STARTED MY VEHICLE AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT. (MALFUNCTION #2) THE VEHICLE HAS ALSO HAD PROBLEMS MAKING A CLICKING NOISE WHEN GOING IN REVERSE LIKE METAL ON METAL CONTACT. (MALFUNCTION #3) WHEN I PUT THE VEHICLE IN DRIVE IT IS DELAYED AND CHANGES HARD. ON APRIL 23, 2015 MY VEHICLE WAS SERVICED FOR AN OIL CHANGE & TIRE ROTATION @ (STEVENS CREEK JEEP DODGE) 4100 STEVENS CREEK BLVD, CA 95129 AND THE SERVICE ADVISOR WAS ADVISED. HE ADVISED THEY WERE BOOKED UP FOR 3 WEEKS IN ORDER TO CONDUCT A DIAGNOSTIC CHECK UNDER THE VEHICLE'S WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED AND IT IS SCHEDULED FOR THE FIRST WEEK OF MAY. THE DEALER WOULD NOT GIVE A FOR A TEMPORARY VEHICLE UNTIL THE VEHICLE IS SAFE TO DRIVE. I AM A SINGLE MOTHER TWO CHILDREN.
