ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
MOSTLY HWY DRIVING~ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON, TRANSMISSION LIGHT IS ON AND VEHICLE SPEED DECREASES, UNABLE TO ACCELERATE. WHEN I COME TO A COMPLETE STOP, MOST TIMES THE SCREEN WILL RESET, THE ENGINE LIGHT WILL GO OFF WITH IN THE NEXT DAY OR TWO. STORED CODES HAVE BEEN P1DA9, P073E. I'VE TAKEN THE CARE TO THE DEALER, SOFTWARE RESET-ONLY SOLVED THE PROBLEM FOR A SHORT TIME. SEARCHED FOR RECALL BY VEHICLE AND THERE ARE AT LEAST 7, BUT WHEN SEARCHING BY VIN # STATES NONE. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIME BUT I WILL ENTER MOST RECENT DATE WITH COMPLAINT

AIR BAGS, POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
IVE BEEN HAVNG PROBLEMS WITH MY VEHICLE SINCE I FIRST PURCHASED. THE CAR SLIPS GEARS AND TAKES OFF AND STAGGER WHILE ON HIGHWAY. IVE MADE SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO HAVE PROBLEM FIXED BY CHRYSLER. I WAS TOLD THAT THE TRANSMISSION DOESN'T MATCH WITH SOFTWARE AND CHRYSLER IS LOOKING TO FIX ISSUE IN THE FUTURE. THECAR FEELS REALLY UNSAFE. AFTER DOING RESEARCH, I ALSO NOTICED THAT THIS CAR WAS SOLD TO ME WAY ABOVE PRICE THAT WAS OFFERED TO OTHERS. I ALSO FEEL THAT THE CONTRACT IS NO LONGER VALID AS THE CAR DEALERSHIP REQUESTED A CERTAIN AMOUNT TO PAY OFF MY TRADE IN. I LATER FOUND THAT THE AMOUNT WAS NEARLY $300 LESS THAN THE REQUESTED AMOUNT. I WAS TOLD THAT ANY EXCESS FUND WILL BE RELEASED TO ME. ITS BEEN OVER A YEAR AND I HAVE YET TO RECEIVE THE REFUND.

SERVICE BRAKES
I TOOK MY CAR TO THE CAR WASH AND AFTER I LEFT THERE, THE BRAKE PEDAL GOT VERY HARD AND I COULD NOT STOP. LOOK FOR A PARKING LOT TO INVESTIGATE A LITTLE ABOUT WHAT WAS HAPPENING AND THEN I HAD TO CALL MY INSURANCE TO REQUEST A CRANE AND TAKE IT TO MY HOUSE.

THE CAR IS SHUTTING OF WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC; NO WARNING SIGNS ARE ON AND CARE GIVES NO WARNING. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE USED ON JANUARY 2015 FROM RUSS DARROW IN MILWAUKEE, WI AND THEY ARE NOT BEING ANY HELP THIS IS TRULY A SAFETY ISSUE FOR MYSELF AND OTHER VEHICLES ON THE ROAD WITH ME. THIS HAPPENED TO ME 4 TIMES NOW WITHIN THE PAST 48HORS AND ONCE WHILE I WAS ON THE FREEWAY.I LOOKED ONLINE AT OTHER MAKES AND MODELS IN DIFFERENT THE SAME STATE AND DIFFERENT STATES BY CUSTOMERS DRIVING THE SAME VEHICLE AND THE EXACT SAME ISSUE AS MY VEHICLE THIS IS SCARY AND DANGEROUS BECAUSE THIS COULD THE CAUSE OF A DEADLY ACCIDENT. THE VEHICLE GIVES NO WARNING ITS BOUT TO SHUT OFF I FEEL LIKE THIS MATTER SHOULD BE TAKING SERIOUSLY AND LOOK INTO THESE VEHICLES SHE BE DONE. THIS IS SCARY AND ESPECIALLY WHEN YOUR USING THE VEHICLE TO TRANSPORT YOUR YOUNG CHILDREN. PLEASE LOOK AT THIS COMPLAINT AND OTHERS DRIVEN THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE CHRYSLER SEEMS TO NOT CARE ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THERE CONSUMERS

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THE VEHICLE IS SHUTTING DOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC,INDICATOR ON DASH WILL FLASH SHIFT TO "P".THE WILL NOT RESTART, YOU WILL HAVE TO TRY A RESTART AFTER THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN SITTING. ONCE TRYING TO RESTART IT WILL SOUND AS IF IT DOESNT WANT TO BUT FINALLY WILL. THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED 5 TO 6 TIMES ALREADY. I'M AFRAID AN ACCIDENT WILL HAPPEN WHEN DRIVING 50 MILES PER HOUR THEN COMING TO COMPLETE STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF HEAVY TRAFFIC. THE CAR HAS STOPPED IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY AND MAJOR MILE ROADS. PLEASE ASSIST ME WITH THIS EXTREME DANGEROUS PROBLEM.I HAVE READ THROUGH RESEARCH THAT THE TCM PINS ARE NOT CONNECTING IN THE HARNESS AND REPROGRAMMING SOME THINGS.THIS CREATES AN UNSAFE CONDITION FOR DRIVING.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
THE CAR WILL NOT CRANK EVEN THOUGH THE KEY FOB IS IN CLOSE PROXIMITY. IT CAN TAKE UP TO 1 HOUR (SOMETIMES MORE, SOMETIMES LESS) TO GET THE CAR CRANKED. THE CAR STARTS AT RANDOM...NO SPECIAL TECHNIQUE CAN BE USED TO GET THIS CAR TO CRANK AS IT SHOULD. THE KEY FOB WORKS FOR LOCKING, UNLOCKING DOORS; HOWEVER, IT DOES NOT WORK TO START IGNITION. I HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY IN THE FOB, HAD THE CAR'S BATTERY TESTED (IT'S IN GOOD WORKING ORDER), TAKEN IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP OF PURCHASE TWICE. I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS ISSUE FOR SEVERAL DAYS NOW IN UPPER 90 DEGREE WEATHER IN FLORIDA. THE VEHICLE IS IMMOBILE/STATIONARY. THE OCCURRENCES HAVE HAPPENED AT HOME, WORK, GROCERY STORE, RESTAURANT. ADDITIONALLY I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE CAR SKIPS WHILE IN MOTION. IT FEELS AS IF SOMETHING GETS HUNG UP AND THEN RELEASES. THIS IS UNSAFE AND FRUSTRATING. THIS CAR IS CRAP!
