ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I BOUGHT MY VEHICLE IN 2017. BEFORE A YEAR OF OWNING IT I GOT INTO A WRECK BECAUSE MY CRUISE CONTROL WOULDNT TURN OFF AND INSTEAD STARTED ACCELERATING MORE. THEN I STARTED HAVING ISSUES WITH MY CATALYTIC CONVERTER TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NO WAY. SHORTLY AFTER THE REST OF MY SYSTEMS STARTED TO GO ALONG WITH IT NOW IT'S BEEN ABOUT 6 MONTHS AND I HAVE A VEHICLE THAT CAN NO LONGER MOVE OR SO ANYTHING. ONCE MY CATALYTIC CONVERTER WENT OUT IT STARTED CLOGGING THE REST OF MY SYSTEM. AS OF SEPTEMBER 2019 MY ENGINE IS NOW COMPLETELY GONE BECAUSE OF ALL THE BACK UP NOT BEING PROCESSED BY MY CATCON

I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE POWER WINDOWS. THERE IS A CLICKING SOUND WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ROLL THE WINDOW DOWN. IT ROLLS DOWN SOMETIMES. AFTER THAT'S BEEN GOING ON FOR A FEW WEEKS, MY CAR CUT OFF. I RECEIVED A JUMP THROUGH MY INSURANCE. TODAY, MY CAR GOT JUMPED AND CUT OFF TWICE. THE MECHANIC SAID IT WAS THE ALTERNATOR. I WENT ONLINE AND I FOUND THAT OTHER PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUES WITH DODGE, CHRYSLER, AND FIAT. EACH TIME MY CAR DIDN'T RESTART, IT WAS AFTER I PARKED AND CAME BACK TO IT. TODAY, IT'S BEING TOWED.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THERE WAS A BUNCH OF LONG LINES ON THE SCREEN AND THE KEY FOB WASN'T DETECTED EVEN THOUGH THE KEY WAS IN THE CAR. THIS HAPPENED AS THE CAR WOULDN'T CRANK UP. THE CAR WOULDN'T REGISTER THAT IT WAS IN PARK. IT REFLECTED THAT IT WAS IN BATTER SAVE MODE. THE A/C CUTS ON BY ITSELF. EVEN AFTER CUTTING IT OFF A FEW TIMES. THE ISSUE WITH THE A/C WAS HAPPENING WITH BOTH FRONT AND REAR UNITS. THE REAR WOULD BLOW OUT A LOT OF HOT AIR AND IT WOULDN'T SYNC. THE ISSUE WITH THE KEY FOB JUST HAPPENED TODAY (9/13/19)

ENGINE
ENGINE STALLS WHILE DRIVING CAUSING VEHICLE TO SHUT OFF WITH NO WARNING. IT HAS TO COAST TO A STOP AS POWER STEERING AND BRAKES GO OUT ONCE SHUT OFF. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND COULD CAUSE A FATAL ACCIDENT. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE SHOP AND NOTHING COULD BE FOUND WRONG WITH IT. THIS IS VERY FRUSTRATING AND POTENTIALLY FATAL.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
CAR SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED. IT SHITS OFF WHILE PARKED OR STOPPED AT A STOPLIGHT. THE CAR WILL NOT TURN BACK ON. SOMETIMES IT TAKE ABOUT 30 MINUTES AND IT WILL RESTART BUT WILL ONLY RUN FOR ABOUT 5-10 MINUTES. WHEN TRYING TO START THE CAR, WE PRESS THE BRAKE AND THEN THE START BUTTON AND THE CAR VIOLENTLY JERKS AS IT TRIES TO START, BUT WILL NOT TURN OVER. IT HAS HAPPENED SINCE WE BOUGHT THE CAR MARCH 2019 BUT THE DEALERSHIP WONT TAKE THE CAR BACK OR TRADE IT FOR SOMETHING ELSE.
