BOUGHT CAR IS OCTOBER OF 2014. OCTOBER OF 2015, CAR STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS. FIRST DAY IT STARTED. CAR HAD TROUBLE TURNING OVER. IT CRANKED, AND CRANKED, AND FINALLY WAS ABLE TO TURN OVER. DROVE IT TO WORK THAT DAY AND FELT SHAKES AND VIBRATIONS AT IDLE. NEXT DAY, SAME THING. CAR HESITATES AND SHAKES AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT APPEARED. TOWED TO DEALER WHERE THEY STATED THE ISSUE WAS THE RECALLS AND UPDATES TO THE TCM AND PCM. I STATED THERE WAS SOMETHING MORE SERIOUS, AND THEY INSISTED IT WAS JUST THE RECALLS (POWER DISTRIBUTION CENTER). GOT A CALL THE NEXT DAY TO PICK CAR UP. TOOK OFF WITH IT, AND AT NEXT STOP LIGHT, CAR STALLED. LIGHTS FLICKERED AND CAR FELT VERY ROUGH. WAS ABLE TO TURN BACK ON CAR. AT THIS TIME, THE A/C STOPPED WORKING. THE DEFROST WAS THE ONLY THING WORKING NO MATTER WHAT WAS TURNED ON OR OFF ON THE DASH. TRIED TO TURN AC AND DEFROST ON AND OFF AND THE DEFROST STAYED ON THE WHOLE TIME. MADE IT BACK TO DEALER, AND TOLD THEM THE ISSUES. WHILE I STOOD THERE, THE ADVISER FELT THE SHAKE WHEN HE TOUCHED THE DOOR, AND SAID THERE WAS DEFINITELY SOMETHING WRONG AND GOT ME A LOANER CAR. STILL WAITING TO HEAR BACK.

POWER TRAIN
CAR BEGAN LURCHING FORWARD UPON ACCELERATION SO WHEN I TOOK IT IN FOR A RECALL, I ASKED THAT THE DEALERSHIP LOOK AT IT. THEY STATED THAT IT WAS FIXED WITH A SOFTWARE UPDATE THAT THEY COMPLETED. THE NEXT DAY THE CAR BEGAN LURCHING FORWARD EVERY TIME I CAME TO A STOP. ONCE I COME TO A COMPLETE STOP IT SHIFTS AND LURCHES LIKE IT WANTS TO GO. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP, WHERE TWO EMPLOYEES TELL ME THEY ARE AWARE OF MANY WITH ISSUES LIKE THIS BUT ACCORDING TO CHRYSLER NOTHING IS WRONG. THE PAPER WORK THEY GAVE ME STATES NOTHING IS WRONG. THE CAR LUNGES EVERY TIME YOU STOP. THIS IS NOT "NORMAL". THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THAT ONCE ANOTHER SOFTWARE UPDATE TO FIX IT IS AVAILABLE THEY WILL CALL ME. I DON'T UNDERSTAND, IF "NOTHING IS WRONG" WHY WOULD THEY NEED TO CALL ME WHEN A FIX IS AVAILABLE? THIS CAR IS DANGEROUS AND IT HAS 2,300 MILES ON IT.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ENGINE, SUSPENSION
I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET MY CAR FIXED FOR A YEAR. THE DEALER MAC HAIK IN GEORGETOWN TX HAS SAID THAT THEY CANNOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. MY CAR HESITATES WHEN I STEP ON THE GAS AND WHEN IT IS PUT INTO GEAR IT LUNGES. THIS IS PARTICULARLY ANNOYING WHEN THE CAR FIRST STARTS. I HAVE TOLD THEM OVER AND OVER AND THEY JUST SAY THAT THEIR TRANSMISSION MAN IS OUT ON LEAVE. THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL CAR THAT I ABSOLUTELY HATE BECAUSE OF HOW IT DRIVES. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER AND THEY SAID IT HAS TO GO THROUGH THE DEALER. I AM FRUSTRATED AND VERY AGGRAVATED. IF THIS IS THE AMERICAN IMPORT OF THE YEAR, WE ARE IN DIRE STRAITS. THIS IS AN UNSAFE CAR! THIS WAS NOT THE CAR THAT I DEMOED AND WHEN I SAID SOMETHING TO THE SALESPERSON, HE AND THE SERVICE PERSON SAID THAT THE CAR HAD TO ADJUST TO THE WAY I DRIVE.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE SAFETY RECALL LETTER SAID TO CONTACT IF THE DEALER COULD REMEDY THE DEFECT IN A REASONABLE TIME FRAME. THE SOONEST THEY CAN FIT MY CAR IN IS JANUARY 2016. THEY SAID THEY ARE OVERLOADED WITH ALL OF THE RECALLS AND THEY CAN'T DO IT SOONER. I'M 33 WEEKS PREGNANT AND I HAVE A 3 YEAR OLD. I REALLY DON'T NEED THE ADDED STRESS THAT MY CAR, WHICH I BOUGHT NEW IN FEBRUARY 2015, COULD POTENTIALLY STALL AND CRASH WITHOUT WARNING. THAT IS A LAWSUIT WAITING TO HAPPEN IF SOMETHING DOES GO WRONG.
