POWER TRAIN
I HAVE GETTING INTERMEDIATE MESSAGE SINCE MAY SAYING "TRANSMISSION OVER TEMP" IN DASH AREA. I HAVE TAKEN TO THE DEALER ON MAY 14, IN WHICH THEY TOOK AN EDUCATED GUESS TO CHANGE MY TRANSMISSION FLUID. I AGREED TO THE SERVICE WHICH DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. I TOOK TO BACK THE DEALER AGAIN ON JUNE 1, FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS TIME THE DEALER TECHNICIANS WORKED ALONG WITH CHRYSLER BY OPENING A CASE. THE CORPORATE CHRYSLER TECHS RECOMMEND TO REPLACE THE SOLENOID, I AGREED TO DO THAT. SINCE MAY I HAVE SPENT OVER $1320.00 AT DULLES JEEP AND I STILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. PLEASE ADVISE HOW CAN YOU HELP ME? THANK YOU ANDREW

RECALL NOTICE BACK IN SEPT. STILL NO STATUS. HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE FOR A SAFETY RECALL. ONE LIFE TO MANY I'M GUESSING. ANOTHER ISSUE TO LOOK AT IS THE DOOR HANDLE ISSUE. IF AN ACCIDENT DID OCCUR HOW WOULD YOU GET OUT?

AFTER CONTACTING MY LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP, I AM TOLD THERE STILL IS "NO SOLUTION" TO FIX THE CURRENT IGNITION SWITCH RECALL ON MY JEEP. THEY HAVE KNOWN ABOUT THIS FOR YEARS. MY "OFFICIAL" RECALL NOTIFICATION WAS SEPTEMBER 2014, AND THERE IS NO SOLUTION YET. HOW LONG DOES ONE HAVE TO WAIT FOR A VIABLE SOLUTION? WHY NOT JUST INSTALL A NEW IGNITION SWITCH INSTEAD OF REPLACING PARTS? I BELIEVE I HAVE WAITED LONG ENOUGH, AND STILL NO FIX. MY CONCERN NOW IS WITH THE RUSH TO FIX AIR BAD MY FIX WILL BE DELAYED EVEN LONGER. HOW LONG IS A REASONABLE TIME TO WAIT BEFORE THE GOVERNMENT DEMAND ACTION?

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM WORK I NOTICED MY TRUCK WAS SLOWING DOWN WITHOUT ME APPLYING THE BRAKES AND ONCE I DID APPLY THE BRAKES I WAS INFORMED I HAD ONLY ONE BRAKE LIGHT WORKING. AT THAT TIME I IMMEDIATELY WENT TO A PART STORE TO HAVE THE FUSES CHECK AND I PURCHASED MORE BULBS AND FOUND OUT THAT WAS NOT THE PROBLEM. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT INFORMED ME THAT THIS WAS ELECTRICAL PROBLEM NOT EVEN THE NEW BULBS WORKED AND THE FUSES WERE GOOD AS WELL. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN OCTOBER 2014 FROM DRIVE TIME OF COLUMBUS, GA AND WAS NOT INFORMED OF THE RECALL. THE CARFAX ASSOCIATED WITH THIS VEHICLE DID NOT MENTION ANY DEFECTS AS A MATTER OF FACT THE CARFAX LISTED THIS VEHICLE AS ALMOST PERFECT. I HAVE CONTACT CHRYSLER REGARDING THIS MATTER AND THEY TOO LET ME KNOW THIS PROBLEM WAS PART OF THE RECALL BUT THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS AND IT IS MAY 2015. NOW I AM DRIVING A TRUCK THAT IS REALLY NOT SAFE. I SPOKE WITH THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASE THE TRUCK WITHOUT ANY RESOLUTION. THEY ARE ONLY CONCERNED WITH THE PAYMENTS., CAN SOMETHING BE DONE? CAN THIS DEALERSHIP BE MADE TO GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK I HAVE SPENT ON THIS TRUCK OR GIVE ME ANOTHER VEHICLE WHICH I AFRAID TO TRUST ANYONE AT THIS POINT. YOUR ADVICE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANK YOU

THIS PROBLEM APPEARS TO BE WIDE SPREAD. ALL THE INTSTRUMENT PANEL WARNING LIGHTS COME ON AND THE A/C RADIO HEATER TACHOMETER SPEEDOMETER ETC STOP WORKING. I INVESTIGATED ONLINE AND IT SEEMS THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH NO CLEAR CUT FIX. MY JEEP IS INCLUDED IN THE IGNITION SWITCH RECALL AND I'M CONCERNED THAT THIS IS A RELATED PROBLEM. THERE IS NO ETA FOR THE IGNITION SWITCH PARTS! I SPOKE WITH CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE YESTERDAY.
