UNKNOWN OR OTHER
MY TRANSFER CASE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED, IT JERKS WHEN I BREAK AND HIT MY GAS, I CAN BARLEY TURN MY VEHICLE WITHOUT THE WHOLE CAR SHAKING. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME IT WOULD COST $4K TO FIX, THE PART IS BACK ORDERED, THERE'S 4 CARS BEFORE ME GETTING THE SAME PROBLEM FIXED. THERE'S OVER 150K PEOPLE WHO HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE SAME THING. THEY TOLD ME IF I DRIVE MY CAR IT WOULD CAUSE IT TO SHUT DOWN AND THEN IT WOULDN'T BE FIXABLE. BUT JEEP REFUSES TO FIX THE PROBLEM WHEN THEY KNOW THIS IS THEIR FAULT. ON TOP OF THAT, MY FUEL RELAY IS RECALLED WITH NO SOLUTION AND MY JEEP COULD TURN OFF ON ME AT ANY MOMENT. THEY TOLD THE TRANSFER CASE IS NOT RECALLED BECAUSE NOT ENOUGH PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT IT. THEY ARE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND REFUSE TO FIX IT.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I KEEP EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE -- VEHICLE WON'T START AFTER LONG EXTENDED CRANK AND THEN SHUTS OFF. APPROXIMATELY TWO YEARS AGO THE ENTIRE FUEL PUMP WAS REPLACED, YET THE SAME ISSUE HAS REOCCURRED. THIS TIME IT WAS DIAGNOSED AS A WIRING ISSUE TO THE FUEL PUMP RELAY. FIAT CHRYSLER AUTOMOBILES (FCA) REFUSED TO REIMBURSE JANUARY 2018 AND AGAIN JULY 2020. THERE IS CURRENTLY AN OPEN RECALL (V62 / NHTSA 19V-813 AND R09 / NHTSA 14V-115) WITH NO REMEDY RELATED TO THE FUEL PUMP THAT RENDERS THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I HAVE REQUESTED THEY REPLACE OR REFUND THE VEHICLE.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
MY VEHICLE LEFT ME STRANDED AT A TARGET STORE PARKING LOT. MY VEHICLE WAS ON WITH THE A/C RUNNING. THE VENT BLOWERS STOPPED WORKING AND THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF. IT CRANKED BUT NO START. I USED MY AAA MEMBERSHIP TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED. IT WAS SENT TO THE AAA MECHANIC. THE FUEL PUMP RELAY WAS NO GOOD. I KNOW THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS RELAY BUT THE DEALER NEVER HAD THE PART IN STOCK. WHICH SOUNDED BOGUS TO ME. THE MECHANIC EXPLAINED THAT THERE IS A RECALL AND I SHOULD GET REIMBURSED. I SENT IN MY COMPLETED THE CHRYSLER REIMBURSEMENT REQUEST FORM AND SUBMITTED THE SHOPS RECEIPT AND THE RENTAL VEHICLE RECEIPT. I WAS ASSIGNED CASE # 76491689. I PAID $3004.00 IN CASH FOR REPAIRS. AFTER I SUBMITTED MY RECEIPTS THEY DENIED MY CLAIM FOR $1309.00 THAT WAS RELATED TO THE FUEL PUMP RELAY REPAIR. THE MECHANIC ALSO PERFORMED OTHER REPAIRS THAT HE CLAIMS WERE AS A RESULT OF THE RECALL DAMAGING THE VEHICLE. I ASKED FOR ANOTHER RECEIPT STATING SPECIFICALLY THAT I PAID IN CASH AND RESUBMITTED IT TO THE DENIED CLAIM EMAIL. I AM UNEMPLOYED DUE TO COVID-19 AND I SPENT MY SAVINGS TO FIX MY VEHICLE. THE RAMIFICATIONS OF THIS MESS HAS AFFECTED MY PERSONAL LIFE AND MY MENTAL HEALTH. FOR A MOMENT I FELT THE MECHANIC LIED TO ME AND I WAS CONTEMPLATING TO PHYSICAL HARM THE MECHANIC. I ALREADY HAD SEVERAL VERBAL DISPUTES WITH THE SHOP BECAUSE THEY CLAIM THAT THE RECEIPT THEY GAVE ME IS ALL THEY CAN PROVIDE. YET IT WAS DEEMED AS INSUFFICIENT PROOF OF MY CASH PAYMENT. I REACHED OUT TO NEWS STATION FOR ASSISTANCE YOU RESOLVE THIS MATTER. *TR

I HAVE TAKEN THIS TO MULTIPLE PLACES AND NO ONE CAN FIGURE IT OUT. WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN IS THAT THE TRANSMISSION OR SOMETHING GOING TO BREAK AND CAUSE A MAJOR ACCIDENT. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHILE DRIVING MY CAR ON THE HIGHWAY THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON. AFTER A FEW MINUTES ALL OF THE OTHER LIGHTS, SEATBELT, ENGINE, ETC. STARTED TO FLASH. THEN MY AIR CONDITIONING TURNED OFF, MY BRAKES STOPPED WORKING AND MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT. LUCKILY I WAS PULLING OFF OF AN EXIT. AFTER FINDING OUT THAT THERE WERE 5 RECALLS, I TOOK THE JEEP TO A DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEM FIX IT. I PICKED IT UP A FEW DAYS LATER AFTER THEY SAID IT WAS READY. THE DAY AFTER PICKING IT UP...I WAS AGAIN DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND THE JEEP DID THE EXACT SAME THING!!! AGAIN LUCKILY I KNEW THE SIGNS AND PULLED OVER QUICKLY BUT STILL LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE BECAUSE POWER STEERING AND BRAKES WENT OUT. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
MARCH 2020, I WENT TO A CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP TO HAVE A RECALL REPAIRED ON MY 2013 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE, DUE TO ISSUE WITH MY CAR STARTING. I CONTACTED MOPAR REGARDING THE PROCEDURE TO REPAIR THE FUEL PUMP RELAY RECALL. I WAS ADVISED NO PARTS WERE AVAILABLE YET, AND THE DEALERSHIP SHOULD USE A REPLACEMENT PART TO TEMPORARILY REPAIR THE RECALL. RECALL V62 WAS REPAIRED, ALONG WITH 2 OTHER RECALLS, STATED BY THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT IN MARCH 2020. JUNE 8, 2020 MY VEHICLE STALLED WHILE DRIVING, I IMMEDIATELY INFORMED THE DEALERSHIP, AND I WAS TOLD THE REPAIR NEVER WAS COMPLETED. AFTER SPEAKING WITH MOPAR AND REPRESENTATIVES AT THE DEALERSHIP, THE DEALERSHIP FAILED TO SUBMIT THE CORRECT DOCUMENTATION TO MOPAR, ALSO GAVE ME MISINFORMATION, AND THE TEMPORARY FIX FAILED. THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN HESITATING TO START AFTER SEVERAL TIMES FOR A WEEK AND A HALF. THE VEHICLE THEN SHUT OFF AT A STOP LIGHT. I WAS ABLE TO START THE CAR AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS, AND IT THEN STALLED WHILE DRIVING IN A BUSY AREA ON JUNE 8, 2020. I CONTACTED AND OPENED A CASE THROUGH MOPAR REGARDING THE RECALL PROCEDURES AFTER MY CAR HAS STALLED, AND THERE IS STILL NO RESOLUTION TO FIX THE VEHICLE. THE REPRESENTATIVE INFORMED ME TO "DRIVE SAFE" AND UNFORTUNATELY THERE WAS NO SOLUTION OR TIMELINE FOR THE FINAL RECALL REPAIR. THE REPRESENTATIVE STATED THAT UNTIL MY CAR HAS FURTHER ISSUES, I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO GET A CASE MANAGER. THIS POLICY IS HAZARDOUS AND CAUSING A SAFETY ISSUE TO ME DUE TO THE ALREADY FAILED ATTEMPT TO REPAIR THE RECALL, AND NO IMMEDIATE OR FORESEEABLE RESOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN, SUSPENSION
CURRENT ISSUE - WHILE WAITING IN A FAST FOOD LINE THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON... AFTER RECEIVING FOOD - I PULLED INTO A PARKING SPOT AND BEFORE I COULD TURN THE VEHICLE OFF, IT STARTED GIVING OFF ERROR CODES RELATED TO VARIOUS ELECTRICAL ITEMS NOT BEING AVAILABLE - FIRST WARNING - SVC. AIR SUSPENSION - SECOND - BLIND SPOT DETECTION NOT AVAILABLE - THIRD EVIC ERROR - FOURTH - ADAPTIVE CRUISE NOT AVAILABLE... THEN DIED AND SMELT LIKE BURNING RUBBER WHEN I EXITED THE VEHICLE... A FAILED EFFORT BY ROADSIDE SERVICE TO JUMP THE VEHICLE DID MANAGE TO TURN ON THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WHICH WOULDN'T TURN OFF BUT THAT'S ALL THAT ACCOMPLISHED SO I HAD ROADSIDE SERVICE PUT IT ON A FLATBED AND TOW IT TO MY HOUSE SINCE NOTHING WAS OPENED AND I DIDN'T WANT TO LEAVE IT SOMEWHERE WITH THE WINDOWS DOWN (OF COURSE THEY WOULDN'T ROLL UP)... PRETTY CLEARLY THIS SHOULD BE PART OF THE T39 ALTERNATOR RECALL THAT WAS ISSUED DUE TO BAD DIODES WHICH CAUSE THE ALTERNATOR TO FRY THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS WITH VERY LITTLE WARNING... THE CAR SHOULD DIE AND THEN THE REPLACEMENT OF THE ALTERNATOR SHOULD RECTIFY THE SITUATION... NOT - THE LIGHT COMES ON - THE CAR IMMEDIATELY DIES - AND THEN YOU NEED A NEW PCM OR ECM AND ALL NEW WIRING... ISSUE #2 - THE SUSPENSION HAS BEEN A TOTAL FIASCO ACCUMULATING $13,000 IN DEALER ASSESSMENTS NOT UNDER WARRANTY - THE WHOLE SYSTEM HAS GONE OUT WITHIN 80,000 MILES AND EVEN AFTER REPLACING 2 AIR STRUTS - 2 UPPER CONTROL ARMS - THE TIE RODS END LINKS - AND THE CV AXLES - AND THE COMPRESSOR - IT STILL SOUNDS LIKE A RICKETY BUCKET OF JUNK... WHEN DRIVING - ALWAYS. ISSUE #3 - THE WATER PUMP CONTINUOUSLY FAILS. - NOT SURE IF WHEN DRIVING BUT ONE WOULD SUSPECT THAT TO BE THE CASE. *TR

GEORGE, UT AND THEY INSTRUCTED ME TO CONTACT CHRYSLER TO FILE A CLAIM. I DID CALL THEM TODAY AND WAS GIVEN A CLAIM NUMBER. NOW I WAIT WHILE THE HEADREST SITS DEPLOYED IN MY JEEP. *TR

GOT INTO MY VEHICLE AND NOTICED THE PASSENGER HEADREST WAS POPPED OPEN. THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN PARKED FOR DAYS SINCE WE ARE UNDER A STAY AT HOME ORDER DUE TO COVID-19 PANDEMIC. WE GOOGLED HOW TO POP IT BACK IN, BUT IT WOULDN'T ATTACH. NOTICED THE PLASTIC TAB WAS BROKEN. I'M JUST GRATEFUL NO ONE WAS SITTING IN THE SEAT WHEN IT HAPPENED. IT COULD HAVE SHOT THEIR HEAD FORWARD AND INJURED THEM. *TR
