I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR THIS. PART- SHIFT INTERLOCK LATCH.

ENGINE
ON 4/15/2015 AND 5/7/2015 THE ENGINE ON OUR CAR JUST STOPPED RUNNING AS I WAS MAKING A TURN AT THE INTERSECTION OF TWO STREETS. WE LOST ALL POWER BRAKES AND STEERING TO THE CAR AND I HAD TO LET IT COAST OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I MANUALLY STOPPED THE CAR AND PUT IT IN PARKING GEAR. I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE ENGINE ON THE FIRST TRY AND CONTINUED MY TRIP. OBVIOUSLY, THIS RECURRING PROBLEM IS OF GREAT CONCERN TO US AND WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR ADVISE ON WHAT WE SHOULD DO TO HAVE IT INVESTIGATED AND CORRECTED A.S.A.P. WE HAVE THE CAR SERVICED ON A REGULAR BASIC AND WE DO NOT NEGLECT THE CAR. *TR

ENGINE, EQUIPMENT ADAPTIVE/MOBILITY, STRUCTURE
OUR ENGINE WENT OUT AND NEEDED REPLACED WHEN CAR WAS UNDER 80,000 MILES. IT HAD TO BE REPLACED FOR OVER $3000. NOW WE ARE TOLD THAT THE CRADLE/SUBFRAME THAT HOLDS THE ENGINE IN IS RUSTED THROUGH CAUSING OUR VEHICLE PROBLEMS WHEN TURNING RIGHT. IT'S READY TO BREAK AND CAUSE MANY PROBLEMS IF WE CONTINUE DRIVING IT!!! I'VE FOUND MANY COMPLAINTS WITH BOTH OF THESE ISSUES ONLINE THAT PEOPLE HAVE REPORTED TO THE COMPANY. WHAT'S IT GOING TO TAKE TO GET A RECALL? A DEATH AS RESULT OF AN ACCIDENT CAUSED FROM DRIVING THE CAR. I HAVE KIDS...ITS UNSAFE AND COSTLY... WHAT A JUNK CAR CHRYSLER :( *TR

STEERING, SUSPENSION
I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET, GOING 25 MPH WHEN I HEARD A KNOCKING SOUND, I THOUGHT IT WAS SOMETHING I HAD HIT BUT, IT WASN'T. I KEPT DRIVING FOR ABOUT 5 BLOCKS WHEN IT OCCURRED AGAIN. I PULLED INTO A SERVICE STATION AND THE MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT IT SOUNDED LIKE IT WAS MY TIE RODS. I CONTACTED A MECHANIC AND HE TOLD ME THAT ITS WAS THE TIE RODS. I HAVE NEVER HAD A PROBLEM IN ALL THE YEARS I HAVE HAD MY CAR, BUT THIS IS A FIRST. NOT SURE IF THIS IS UNDER A RECALL OR IF ANYONE ELSE IS EXPERIENCING THIS, BUT IT CAN BE FRIGHTENING. *TR
