ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
HAD TO GET RADIO FIXED WHEN I FIRST GOT THE CAR. AFTER A YEAR IT STARTED MAKING CRACKLING SOUNDS, THEN IT STOPPED. SO I STARTED PLAYING CDS AND NOW THEY MAKE A POPPING SOUND EVERY 3 SECONDS. THE TRUNK WAS OPENING ONCE AND A WHILE NOW IT DOESN'T OPEN WITHOUT MOVING THE BACK SEAT. WHILE LOOKING FOR A RESOLVE, I SEE MANY PEOPLE HAVE THESE SAME PROBLEMS.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
I PURCHASED THE CAR ON SEPTEMBER 23RD, 2017, WITH APPROXIMATELY $42,000 MILLS. IN JANUARY 2018, I BEGAN HAVING SOME HEADLIGHTS, AIRBAGS, AND ENGINE LIGHTS ISSUES. I TOOK IT TO THE CAR DEALERSHIP SERVICE TO GET A HEADLIGHT BULB REPLACEMENT, AN AIRBAG CHECK, AND ENGINE RESET. THREE MONTHS LATER, THE SAME ISSUES OCCUR WITH THE AIRBAG LIGHT GOING ON AND OFF, AND THE HEADLIGHT BULB NEEDED ANOTHER REPLACEMENT. I ALSO BEGIN HAVING SOME "KEY FOB NOT DETECTED" ISSUE, EVEN IF I AM HOLDING THE KEY RIGHT NEXT TO THE PUSH START BUTTON. I CHANGED THE BATTERY ON THE KEY, BUT THE ISSUE PERSISTED. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE. THEY HAD TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE KEY SYSTEM AND PROVIDE ME WITH A NEW KEY. BY THE END OF 2019, MY SCREEN WENT BLACK WHILE DRIVING AND CAME BACK ON AFTER A FEW MINUTES. BY MARCH 2020, THE SCREEN SHUT OFF COMPLETELY AND MY CAR WOULD NOT START UNLESS BEEN PUT ON A NEW BATTERY OR AFTER SEVERAL JUMP-STARTS. IF I TURN OFF THE CAR AND TRY TO TURN IT BACK ON, MY BATTERY AND ENGINE LIGHT SIGNALS ARE ON, AND I NEED TO JUMP-START THE CAR AGAIN OR GET ANOTHER BATTERY. MY FIRST NEW BATTERY REPLACEMENT DID NOT LAST A MONTH

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
I PURCHASED THIS CAR NEW OFF THE DEALERSHIP SHOWROOM IN SUMMER OF 2017. A COUPLE DAYS AFTER HAVING IT, I WAS DRIVING DOWN A STREET IN MY HOMETOWN AND THE VEHICLE JUST SHUT COMPLETELY OFF. I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC AND BEGAN TO PANIC BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY 'FIXED' THE ISSUE. SHORTLY AFTER, WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT, THE CAR SHUT OFF AGAIN IN TRAFFIC AND TOOK A WHILE TO RESTART. EVERYTHING IN THE VEHICLE TURNS OFF. I AGAIN TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY 'FIXED' THE ISSUE. HERE WE ARE JUST LAST WEEK, 08/15/2020 AND I'M DRIVING ON A MAJOR THRU WAY AND THE VEHICLE CUTS OFF AGAIN. THERE HAVE NEVER BEEN ANY WARNING SIGNS, LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD/ REASON FOR ME TO BELIEVE SOMETHING WAS WRONG. MY VEHICLE BARELY HAS 50K MILES. AFTER LOOKING UP MY VIN TO SEE IF THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL (THERE ISN'T), I DID NOTICE THAT THE YEAR PRIOR (2015) SAME MAKE AND MODEL HAVE A RECALL FOR THE SAME ELECTRICAL ISSUE I'VE BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT. THIS MATTER IS SERIOUS AS THE CARS TURNS OFF UNEXPECTEDLY AND COULD CAUSE A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT. I WILL UPLOAD MY PAPER WORK FROM THE DEALERSHIP THE FIRST 2X. I HAVE NOT DRIVEN THE VEHICLE SINCE 8/15/20 AS I'M AFRAID THAT SOMEONE WILL GET HURT. I'VE CALLED TO REPORT THE ISSUE AT THE 888 NUMBER LISTED BUT THE PHONE JUST HANGS UP. AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE I LIVED IN NIAGARA FALLS, NY AND PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM JOE CECCONI'S CHRYSLER COMPLEX. I CURRENTLY LIVE IN CHARLOTTE, NC WHERE THE MOST RECENT INCIDENT OCCURRED.

AIR BAGS, ENGINE
MY AIRBAG LIGHT CONTINUES TO COME ON STATING THAT I NEED TO SERVICE MY AIRBAG SYSTEM. IT WILL STAY ON FOR AWHILE, AND THEN SHUT OFF FOR APPROX 2-4 WEEKS, AND THEN TURN BACK ON AGAIN. TODAY I WAS DRIVING MY CAR, AND WHEN I GOT TO A STOP SIGN MY CAR KIND OF SPUTTERED, AND THEN TURNED OFF STATING I NEED TO PUT MY CAR IN PARK, AND PUSH THE START BUTTON. THIS SEEMS TO HAPPEN WHEN MY CAR SAYS "OIL CHANGE REQUIRED". PRETTY SCARY, BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW IF THIS WILL HAPPEN WHEN IM DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY.

WHILE I AM DRIVING MY CAR, MY CAR WILL JUST SHUT OFF. I CAN BE ON THE HIGHWAY DOING 75 AND MY CAR WILL JUST DEAD STOP. I LOSE POWER IN MY STEERING WHEEL, MY BRAKES STOP WORKING. YOU CAN'T EVEN PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL DOWN. SOMETIMES THE CAR WILL TURN BACK ON WHEN I TRY, OTHER TIMES IT DOESN'T. ITS BEEN LIKE THIS FOR THE ENTIRE YEAR IVE HAD THIS CAR. NOBODY CAN SEEM TO FIGURE OUT WHY.
