SERVICE BRAKES, POWER TRAIN, WHEELS
WHEN DRIVING MY VEHICLE FROM THE STOP POSITION ON THE STREET OR AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT AND I BEGIN TO ACCELERATE THE VEHICLE HESITATES AS THE ENGINE RPMS INCREASE. IT TAKES ABOUT 2-5 SECONDS FOR THE TRANSMISSION TO CATCH UP WITH THE DESIRED SPEED. WHEN DRIVING OVER 45 - 55MPH OR HIGHER ON THE HIGHWAY THERE IS A DISTINCT HUMMING SOUND COMING FROM THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. A CONSTANT HUMMING SOUND. WHEN I DECREASE IN SPEED THE TRANSMISSION JERKS AS IF IT DOESN'T WANT TO GO INTO ITS LOWER GEARS. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN OCCURRING WITH THE VEHICLE SINCE I PURCHASED IT USED IN AUGUST OF 2017 IN HAWAII.

MY BREAKING IS IN EFFECTIVE. THE RIDE OF THE CAR IS NOT SMOOTH. WHEN TAKING IT TO GET IT SERVICED THEY TOLD ME MY MAKE AND MODEL IS ON RECALL FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM I AM HAVING BUT MY VIN NUMBER DID NOT SHOW UP. I HAVE NOT GOTTEN IT REPAIRED AS IT IS EXPENSIVE AND CHRYSLER SHOULD HONOR THIS PROBLEM. I BELIEVE MY VIN NUMBER SHOULD FALL IN THE RECALL GUIDELINES.
