ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
HAVE HAD VEHICLE APPROX 1 YR. WHILE DRIVING 45MPH ON CITY STREET CHECK ENGINE CAME ON WITH ENGINE OVERHEAT MSG AND ENGINE COOLING SENSOR AS WELL. REPLACED SENSOR AND WHILE DRIVING THE NEXT DAY ON HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH TO SEE IF THE SYSTEM READJUSTS ITSELF TO THE NEW SENSOR MESSAGE CAME ON AGAIN WITH ADDED SERVICE ELECRTRICAL THROTTLE CONTROL MSG AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS AGAIN. I WAS NEAR OREILL AND IT PRODUCED CODES FOR THERMOSTAT, COOLING SENSOR, SYSTEM PERFORMANCE, ETC. MESSAGES ARE NOT ON SCREEN NOW BUT CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS STILL ON. I BELIEVE IT TRIGGERS WHEN COOLING TEMP REACHES APPX, 189 F. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH MANY OTHERS ARE EXPERIENCING THESE ISSUES AND SEEMS THE PROBLEM ESCALATES TO MUCH WORSE SUCH AS SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING. NO RECALLS THUS FAR BUT MANY PEOPLE ANTICIPATING SOMEONE NEEDING TO DIE BEFORE SOMETHING IS DONE. I DRIVE WITH MY CHILDREN ALMOST ALL OF THE TIME AND AM VERY CONCERNED.

AIR BAGS
ON DECEMBER 31, 2017 MY WIFE AND I WERE ON OUR WAY HOMEFROM CHURCH WHEN THE SEAT BELT LIGHT CAME ON. WE READ THE OWNERS MANUAL, NOT ABLE TO DO ANYTHING CAUSE OF THE HOLIDAYS. ON JANUARY 2, 2018 I CALLED THE CHRYSLER DEALER NEAR ME AND SET UP AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT. LATER THAT DAY THE SERVICE MAN CALLED AND SAID IT WAS THE AIR BAG ON THE PASSENGER SEAT AND A SHORT WIRE HARNESS, THE COST WOULD BE ABOUT $800.00 WHICH I SPENT $127.00 TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT. I DID NOT HAVE IT REPAIRED BECAUSE I FEEL THIS IS A CHRYSLER PROBLEM. AT THIS TIME OUR AIR BAGS DON'T WORK. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT CHRYSLER SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR. THIS DEALER TOLD ME THAT THEY HAVE HAD A NUMBER OF SERVICE CALLS OF THIS SAME PROBLEM. I ALSO CALLED TWO OTHER DEALER, AND THEY TOLD ME THEY HAVE HAD MANY ISSUES OF THE SAME PROBLEM. THEY ALL STOCK REPLACEMENT PARTS SO THIS MUST BE AN A SERIOUS ISSUE. THE DEALER CALLED OUR EXTENDED WARRANTY CO. AND IT WAS NOT COVERED. I CALLED CHRYSLER AND NEVER GOT A RETURN CALL AFTER SHE HUNG UP ON ME. SO AT THIS TIME THIS IS WHY I AM WRITING YOU. *JS

VISIBILITY/WIPER
THE VEHICLE HAS LOST MOST OF ITS HEATING CAPABILITIES AND WILL NOT DEFROST THE WINDSHIELD. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AS WE LIVE IN A COLD CLIMATE DURING THE WINTER AND COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AS WELL AS CAUSING THE DRIVER TO BE VERY UNCOMFORTABLE WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE READ UP ON NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OF THIS AND I CANNOT BELIEVE THERE HASN'T BEEN A RECALL SUBMITTED BY CHRYSLER. I EVEN HAD A PAST CHRYSLER MECHANIC INFORM ME THAT WHEN HE WAS WORKING FOR A CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP THAT THE DEALERSHIP RECEIVED A LETTER INFORMING THEM THAT THEY WOULD START TO SEE THIS PROBLEM OCCURING WITH THESE VEHICLES. UNBELIEVABLE! AND YET NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED? THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED FOR SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERNS BEFORE PEOPLE ARE KILLED IF IT HASN'T HAPPENED ALREADY.

HEAT STOPPED WORKING ON PASSENGER SIDE. DEFROSTING IS MORE DIFFICULT BEING THAT THE AIR IS NOT WARM IN COLD TEMPERATURES. PRIOR TO THE HEAT NOT WORKING ON THE PASSENGER SIDE THE A/C STOPPED GETTING COLD TOO. (IT WAS GETTING COLD ONLY ON THE DRIVERS SIDE)
