ON 9/23/19 I WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT AND WAS HIT IN THE REAR AND WAS PUSH INTO THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. THE FORCE OF IMPACT WAS SO EXTREME MY CAR WAS TOTALED AND I HAD TO BE TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL BY AMBULANCE. NOT EVEN ONE AIR BAG DEPLOYED!!! THEY SAY THIS CAR HAS 10 AIR BAGS AND NOT ONE OF THEM DEPLOYED. I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED BUT BY THE GRACE OF GOD I WASN'T. I WANT ANSWERS AS TO WHY NOT EVEN ONE OF MY 10 AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE ENTIRE REAR OF MY CAR WAS PUSHED INTO THE BACK SEAT, THE FRONT OF THE CAR THE HOOD WAS PUSHED TO THE WINDSHIELD, LIKE I SAID THE CAR IS TOTALED. IF YOU COULD SEE MY CAR YOU WOULD BE ASKING, WHY DID NOT ONE AIR BAG DEPLOY, THIS IS DEFINITELY A DEFECT THAT COULD OF COST ME MY LIFE! *DT*JB

TOOK MY VEHICLE IN TO HAVE THE SHIFTER CABLE REPLACE DUE TO A CURRENT RECALL. MY CAR WOULD NOT COME OUT OF PARK BECAUSE OF THIS, THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT IT WAS FIXED BUT A DAY LATER IT HAPPENED AGAIN. I TOOK IT BACK AND THEY HAD IT A DAY AND A HALF, THEY FINALLY CALLED TO TELL ME THAT NOW MY TRANSMISSION SHIFTER SOLENOID WAS BAD AND THAT IT WOULD BE $800 TO FIX. I TOOK THE CAR IMMEDIATELY TO ANOTHER MECHANIC BECAUSE THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT IT WASN'T PART OF THE RECALL AND I DIDN'T WANT TO PAY THAT AMOUNT IF I DIDN'T HAVE TO. THE OTHER MECHANIC TOLD ME TO TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AFTER HE LOOKED AT IT BECAUSE MORE THAN LIKELY THEY CAUSED THE DAMAGE WHEN THEY WERE REPLACING THE BUSHING. I CALLED AND SPOKE TO THE MANAGER AND HE TOLD ME THAT THE TECH SAID THEY DIDN'T DAMAGE IT AND THAT THE RECALL WAS ALL THEY WERE TOLD TO FIX AND THAT THEY WEREN'T TOLD TO FIX THE ISSUE WITH THE CAR NOT COMING OUT OF PARK. I HAVE THE PAPER WORK THAT STATES WHY THE CAR WAS THERE AND IT STATES THAT, THAT WAS THE REASON I BROUGHT IT IN. I'VE NEVER HAD SO MUCH TROUBLE WITH A CAR BEFORE. DODGE SHOULD HAVE NEVER SOLD THESE VEHICLES. IN 2015 THEY HAD TO REPLACE MY ENTIRE TRANSMISSION DUE TO A RECALL AND MY VEHICLE RANDOMLY STOPPING WHILE DRIVING. THIS VEHICLE IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE. THE CRUISE CONTROL HAS WORKED INTERMITTENTLY SINCE I BOUGHT IT NEW IN 2013 AND I TOOK BACK AND THEY SAID IT WAS FINE. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON EVERY OTHER TIME I GET GAS TELLING ME THAT THERE'S A PROBLEM WITH THE CAP WHICH THERE ISN'T, I HAD IT CHECKED.

MY GRANDMA WAS DRIVING HER CAR IN TOWN AND THE DASH CLUSTER QUIT WORKING. I TRIED CHECKING FUSES AND DID NOT FIND ANYTHING SIMPLE TO FIX THE DASH CLUSTER TO QUIT WORKING. SHE TOOK THE CAR TO THE LOCAL DODGE DEALER WHERE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED. WHEN THEY ASKED WHAT HAPPENED EXPLAINED THAT THE DASH CLUSTER JUST QUIT WORKING. THEY SAID THAT IS VERY COMMON ISSUE. I THINK IT IS A SAFETY ISSUES BECAUSE YOU CAN'T SEE ANYTHING NO MPH, GAUGES OF ANY SORT FUEL, TEMPERATURE. WHEN OPERATING THE CAR YOU HAVE TO GUESS WHEN THE DASH CLUSTER IS NOT WORKING.

CAR NEEDS SHIFTER CABLE BUSHINGS ON THE TRANSMISSION, WITHOUT THE PROPER BUSHINGS, THE TRANSMISSION MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO BE SHIFTED, EVEN THOUGH THE SHIFTER MAY SHOW THE TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN SHIFTED. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP, AND THE FCA RECALL ASSISTANCE CENTER AND WAS TOLD THE NEW PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE NOR DID ANYONE KNOW WHEN THEY WOULD BE. SINCE THEN, I HAVE HEARD NOTHING THOUGH I WAS PROMISED AN UPDATE. MEANWHILE I DRIVE THE CAR WITH GREAT FEAR, I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO DRIVE IT.
