ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THE FUEL GAUGE ON MY VEHICLE WAS NOT WORKING. I TOOK THE CAR TO BERGLUND JEEP CHRYSLER DODGE RAM DEALERSHIP IN ROANOKE, VA FOR RECALL 19V-813 (MANUFACTURER RECALL V62), JUST IN CASE THE FUEL PUMP RELAY WAS CAUSING THE ISSUE. THEY REFUSED TO PERFORM THE RECALL DUE TO LACK OF AVAILABILITY OF THE PART, THOUGH I WAS TOLD THAT THE PART WOULD TAKE 5-7 DAYS TO ARRIVE WHEN I MADE THE INITIAL APPOINTMENT. THEY ALSO DID NOT PERFORM AN INTERIM REPAIR TO ADDRESS FUEL PUMP FAILURE (THEY OFFERED TO FIX THE FUEL PUMP FOR $2100). THE DEALERSHIP REFUSED ANY FURTHER COMMUNICATION TO ADDRESS MY QUESTIONS AND CONCERNS ABOUT THE RECALL/WHEN THE PART WOULD BE AVAILABLE.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
JEEP SENT A RECALL NOTICE WITHOUT HAVING A SOLUTION ON HAND. IT HAS BEEN 10 MONTHS SINCE THE RECALL. FUEL PUMP RELAY FAILURE CAN CAUSE MAJOR ACCIDENTS. MY VEHICLE HAS HAD CHECK ENGINE LIGHT SPONTANEOUSLY COME ON. I TOOK IT TO JEEP DEALERSHIP FOR A FIX AND THEY REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I HAVE A SMALL CHILD IN THE SUV MOST OF THE TIME AND I AM CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY OF THE CHILD. JEEP IS NOT WILLING TO WORK WITH ME ON A SOLUTION TO EITHER FIX THE VEHICLE OR SUPPLY A TEMPORARY REPLACEMENT UNTIL MY VEHICLE IS FIXED. PLEASE HELP!

AT APPROXIMATELY 120K MILES I BEGAN TO NOTICE A SLIGHT TICK COMING FROM THE DRIVER SIDE OF THE MOTOR. OVER THE NEXT 5K MILES I CHANGED THE OIL SEVERAL TIMES, SWAPPED PLUGS, COIL PACKS AND INJECTORS TO RULE OUT ANY POTENTIAL ISSUES. I ALSO DID A VISUAL INSPECTION OF THE EXHAUST MANIFOLDS. THE PROBLEM PERSISTED AND GOT WORSE. THERE WAS ALSO A CONSISTENT HESITATION UNDER MEDIUM TO HEAVY THROTTLE INPUT. I'M NOW AT 126K MILES AND HAD A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT - P0303 FOR CYLINDER 3 MISFIRE. I HAVE STARTED DISASSEMBLING THE MOTOR AND NOTICED THE LIFTER HAS SEIZED AND STARTED DESTROYING THE CAMSHAFT.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
MY CAR CONTINUES TO HAVE INTERMITTENT ISSUES WITH START. BUT I AM MOST CONCERNED ABOUT THE POTENTIAL FOR THE JEEP TO STALL AND CRASH WHILE THE IN DRIVING. I AM RISKING THE LIVES AND THE LIFE OF FAMILY AND FRIENDS EACH TIME I DRIVE THIS JEEP. THIS FULE PUMP RELAY SWITCH RECALL (V62) (NHTSA 19V-813) WAS ISSUED BACK IN NOVEMBER 2019. MY COMMUNICATIONS WITH KOONS CHRYSLER IN TYSONS CORNER VIRGINIA AND MOPAR HAVE NOT PRODUCED POSITIVE RESULT. THEY WILL NOT PROVIDE WITH A DATE FOR RESOLUTION. THIS IS MY ONLY TRANSPORTATION, SO I HAVE NO OTHER OPTIONS FOR TRANSPORTATION. I PRAY EACH TIME I DRIVE THIS VEHICLE THAT ME, AND MY PASSENGERS MAKE IT TO AND FROM OUR DESTINATIONS SAFELY. PLEASE HELP ME
