FUEL PUMP RELAY SAFETY RECALL : ELECTRICAL SYSTEM ISSUE WITH TIPM-7 POWER MODULE, RECALL # V62 (19V813000) NOV 14, 2019, TOLD [XXX] AT DALLAS CHRYSLER, DALLAS GEORGIA ABOUT THIS ISSUE BACK IN DEC 2019. PROBLEM: THE TIPM-7 COULD FAIL CAUSING THE ENGINE TO STALL INCREASING RISK OF A CRASH. VEHICLE WILL NOT CRANK AT TIMES, VEHICLE WILL SEAM TO BE OUT OF GAS DUE TO THE FUEL PUMP STOPPING DURING OPERATION. I HAVE TOLD THIS TO THE DEALER BUT NOTHING DONE TO REPAIR THIS SAFETY ISSUE. THIS IS MY WIFE'S DAILY USE VEHICLE AND THIS ISSUE MUST BE REPAIRED ASAP OR CHRYSLER CAN FURNISH A LOANER VEHICLE UNTIL THE ISSUE IS RESOLVED ON MY 2011 JEEP. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) *TR

THE CAR WAS IN THE SHOP TWICE TO RECTIFY A FUEL PUMP ISSUE. AS OF RIGHT NOW, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS STILL ON AND THE ERROR CONTINUES TO BE THE FUEL PUMP. THERE WAS A SECOND RECALL IN NOVEMBER 2019 WITH NO SOLUTION. THE CAR FAILED TO START MULTIPLE TIMES DUE TO THE FUEL PUMP AND I FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING THE CAR WITH A HISTORY OF FUEL PUMP ERROR SINCE THE CAR COULD STALL MID DRIVING. *TR

POWER TRAIN, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
STARTED HAVING A TRANSMISSION SLIP IN 2ND GEAR REPAIR SHOP LOOKED THINGS OVER AND SAID TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS A LITTLE LOW AND I WAS LEAKING TRANSMISSION FLUID DUE AC CONDENSER GOING BAD. HAD IT REPLACED, NO MORE LEAKING TRANSMISSION FLUID BUT TRANSMISSION STILL ACTING UP NOW. WAS TOLD IT WAS MOST LIKELY DUE TO THE LEAK AND TRANS FLUID GETTING LOW. AFTER READING UP I GUESS THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. OBVIOUSLY THESE A/C CONDENSER UNITS ARE FAULTY. NOW I HAVE A TRANSMISSION THAT COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDABLE IF JEEP WOULD HAVE LET OWNERS KNOW ABOUT THE AC CONDENSER ISSUE OR MADE THAT A UNIT THAT HAS TO GET REPLACED AFTER SO MANY MILES.

I BOUGHT THIS CAR FROM LICCARDI CHRYSLER DODGE RAM IN GREEN BROOK, NJ IN FEBRUARY, 2020. IMMEDIATELY, THE CAR ENGINE STALLED, TURNING OFF POWER STEERING, POWER BRAKES, AND GAS. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO LICCARDI, THEY CLAIMED IT WAS THE OIL PAN LEAK AND I SPENT $2,000 ON REPAIRS. SINCE THEN, THE CAR HAS STALLED 4 TIMES, COMING TO A STOP. STILL, LICCARDI REFUSES TO ADMIT THE PROBLEM, SAYING THEY CAN NOT DUPLICATE IT AND THEY ARE NOT AWARE OF A RECALL OR A REMEDY FOR A RECALL. I AM OUT OF OPTIONS AND DESPERATELY NEED HELP. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE IN NOVEMBER 2019, AND STILL NO PART AVAILABLE FROM CHRYSLER. MY JEEP IS HAVING THE ISSUE RELATED TO THE RECALL AND THEY DON'T KNOW WHEN IT WILL BE AVAILABLE. THERE IS TEMPORARY PART AVAILABLE AT THE DEALER THAT THEY CAN PUT IN THE MEANTIME, BUT I HAVE TO PAY FOR THE DIAGNOSIS AND THE PART AND LABOR AND IF THEY AGREE, THEY MAY REIMBURSE ME FOR SOME OF IT. THAT IS NOT OKAY, BECAUSE IF THE ORIGINAL PART WAS AVAILABLE BY KNOW, I WOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY FOR ANYTHING! THE RECALLED PART, FUEL RELAY ISSUES, CAUSES THE ENGINE TO STALL WITH OUT WARNING, WHILE YOUR RUNNING OR NOT START AT ALL. I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY FOR AN ISSUE DUE TO A RECALL. SIX MONTHS TO COME UP WITH A RECALLED PART IS A LITTLE LONG TO MAKE "MINOR FIX" AS I'VE BEEN TOLD 15 TIMES! *TR

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, STEERING
MY JEEP HAS STALLED AT LEAST 5 TIMES WITH THE POWER STEERING FAILING. 1) ONCE WHILE AT AN INTERSECTION TURNING LEFT ON A GREEN ARROW NO STEERING. 2) TRAVELING ABOUT 45 MPH AND STALLED AGAIN AND NO STEERING. 3) TWICE GOING FROM 55 MPH UP TO A STOP SIGN AND THE CAR STALLED AGAIN NO STEERING. 4) JUST LAST FRIDAY, I WAS DRIVING 55 MPH AND SLOWING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN AND AGAIN STALLED AND NO POWER STEERING. THIS IS GETTING SERIOUS AND HAPPENS UNEXPECTEDLY WHICH MAKES DRIVING DANGEROUS. THE STALLING IS HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY NOW. I'VE CONTACTED JEEP AND THEY SAY A RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED BUT NO FIX HAS TAKEN PLACE AND IS TO BE DETERMINED WITH NO IDEA WHEN. THE RECALL WAS ISSUED LATE LAST YEAR. SO HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO FIX A RELAY ISSUE? THIS HAS GONE ON FAR TO LONG AND GETTING SCARY. PLEASE HELP ME AND GET SOME KIND OF ANSWER FROM JEEP. SINCERELY, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
