TAKATA RECALL I STARTED TO NOTICE THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD JERK WHEN SWITCHING GEARS AND WOULD ALMOST FEEL LIKE IT RAN INTO A WALL SOON AFTER I PURCHASED IT.

I WAS TOLD THEY WERE UNABLE TO SEE THE PROBLEM WHILE THEY DROVE THE VEHICLE SO WAS UNABLE TO FIX IT. IF I WAS ABLE TO MAKE THE PROBLEM HAPPEN I WOULD AS IT HAPPENS SPORADICALLY!

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
IN JUNE 4, 2016 I WAS ATTENDING 2 HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATIONS. IT WAS RAINING THAT MORNING SO MY WIPERS WERE ON. I GET TO THE CENTER AND GO INSIDE. AFTER THE 2ND GRADUATION AND SPEAKING WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS I GO TO THE PARKING GARAGE TO LEAVE. I GET TO MY CAR TO FIND MY WIPERS STILL GOING. I GET IN THE CAR A TRY TO TURN THE SWITCH OFF. ITS ALREADY OFF. I DRIVE HOME. MY HUSBAND AND I CHECK FOR THE FUSE TO REMOVE. NO LUCK. HE DISCONNECTS THE BATTERY. THERE IS A LOT GOING ON SO I GET IT TO A MECHANIC A WEEK LATER. HE TESTS IT AND THE RESULTS COME BACK AS THE WIPER MOTOR. WE SCHEDULE THE REPAIR BUT FINDS IT IS NOT THE MOTOR. HE RETESTS THE CAR AND TELLS ME ITS THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED PIWER MODULE OR TIPM. HE SUGGESTS THAT.I CALL CHRYSLER. THEY TELL ME TO GO TO A CHRYSLER MECHANIC AND CALL THEM BACK. I GO TO THE NEAREST 2 CHRYSLER DEALERS IN MY AREA. NEITHER COULD HELP ME AT THE TIME. I NOW HAVE A MECHANIC SCHEDULED FOR TOMORROW. I HOPE TO GET MY MONEY BACK FROM CHRYSLER,

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THE CAR KEEPS STALLING IN TRAFFIC, GET AN ENGINE JUMP THEN STALLS. CHRYSLERS TECHS CAN'T EVEN FIGURE IT OUT. ALSO STALLS ON FREEWAYS AND IS GOING TO GET SOMEONE KILLED. FROM WHAT I SEE IT'S HAPPENING IN THESE CARS FROM 2012 TO 2015 MODELS EVERYWHERE. I'M VERY SICK OF GOING TO THE DEALER AND PAYING HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS BECAUSE OF COURSE IT'S ALWAYS SOMETHING NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, HOW CONVENIENT. THEN EITHER RIGHT AWAY OR A MONTH LATER THE SAME ISSUE OCCURS AND GET WORSE AND WORSE. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY.

POWER TRAIN
I WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT, WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN I STEPPED ON THE ACCELERATOR TO GO AND COULD NOT MOVE!! THE CAR REFUSED TO SHIFT! I LOOKED DOWN TO CHECK AND MAKE SURE IT WAS IN DRIVE AND IT WAS! I WAS NEARLY REAR ENDED, PEOPLE HAD TO DRIVE AROUND ME. IT TOOK AROUND 20 TO 30 SECONDS FOR MY VEHICLE TO SHIFT INTO GEAR AND MOVE FORWARD. WHILE TRYING TO MOVE FORWARD IT REVVED TO AROUND 5,000 RPM. I HAVE A CHILD WITH ME. WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF SOMEONE REAR ENDED US? I KNOW CHRYSLER HAS NUMEROUS ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSIONS TO THESE VEHICLES AND I AM SORRY BUT THEY SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED ON THE ROAD WITH PROBLEMS LIKE THIS!!

POWER TRAIN
THE GEAR SHIFT CAN BE EASILY AND ACCIDENTALLY KNOCKED INTO REVERSE PARK OR NEUTRAL WHILE DRIVING AND WJRHOUT NEEDING TO APPLY BRAKE. I WAS DRIVING AND MY CELLPHONE SLID OUT OF THE CELLPHONE MOUNT AND HIT THE KNOB AND THREW MY INTO PARK WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT HIGH 60 MPH I WAS FAST ENOUGH TO MOVE IT BACK OVER TO DRIVE BUT IT COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT OR DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE. THIS TYPE OF THING HAS HAPPENED ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION I ACCIDENTALLY PUT IT IN REVERSE WHILE DRIVING THINKING I WAS MOVING THE FAN KNOB DOWN AT NIGHT WHILE DRIVING. ALSO MY FRIENDS SON PUT MY CAR INTO PARK WHILE ADJUSTING THE TEMPERATURE AS WELL. YOU SHOULD NEVER BE ABLE TO MOVE THE GEARS SO EASILY OR IN REVERSE OR PARK WITHOUT BRAKE OR PUSHING THE KNOB DOWN OR SOMETHING TERRIBLY UNSAFE!! ALL OF THE TIMES THIS HAS OCCURRED I WAS DRIVING ALSO THERE GAVE BEEN TIMES I THOUGHT MY CAR WAS IN PARK BUT WAS NOT WAS ACTUALLY IN REVERSE VERY DANGEROUS
