POWER TRAIN
AFTER DRIVING THE VEHICLE FOR MORE THAN 15 OR 20 MINUTES, WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP THE VEHICLE SHIFTS ERRATICALLY CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO JOLT AND OCCASIONALLY STALL. IT FEELS AS IF THE VEHICLE IS TRYING TO DOWNSHIFT BEFORE RETURNING TO THE APPROPRIATE GEAR. PROCEEDING FORWARD OR TURNING MAKES NO DIFFERENCE. I CONTACTED THE DEALER ABOUT THIS OVER A YEAR AGO AND WAS TOLD THE OIL NEEDED TO BE CHANGED. I CONTACTED THE DEALER AGAIN THIS WEEK AFTER SEEING THAT THE VEHICLE WAS POTENTIALLY PART OF A NATIONAL RECALL BUT WAS TOLD I COULD BRING THE VEHICLE IN TO SERVICE BUT IT WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL (THE MAKE, MODEL AND DATE OF MANUFACTURE MATCH THE RECALL DATA BUT SINCE THE VIN ISN'T SPECIFICALLY LISTED AS BEING RECALLED ON THE SAFECAR.GOV WEB SITE IT WAS NOT COVERED). THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING SINCE APPROXIMATELY 6 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE AND CONTINUES UNTIL THIS DAY.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I AM WRITING TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THE LENGTH OF TIME THAT IT TOOK FOR MY VEHICLE. IT STATED CLEARLY IN THE RECALL LETTER I RECEIVED THAT THE SERVICE WOULD TAKE 1 HOUR. MAYBE A LITTLE LONGER. WHEN I MADE THE APPT. I WAS TOLD THE PARTS WERE IN STOCK. I DROPPED OFF MY CAR THE NEXT MORNING, AND WAS TOLD 3 HOURS IF I WANTED TO WAIT. I CALLED THEM 2 DAYS LATER AND WAS TOLD PARTS NEEDED TO BE ORDERED, AND IT WOULD BE 2 WEEKS UNTIL THEY (THE DEALERSHIP) COULD GET THEM. AFTER THE 2 WEEKS, WITH NO UPDATE FROM THEM, I GOT A CALL SAYING THE PARTS DIDNT TAKE, THEY WOULD HAVE TO ORDER THEM AGAIN. THIS HAPPENED ONE MORE TIME. ALL IN ALL MY CAR WAS IN THE SHOP FOR A MONTH FOR A 1 HOUR TREATMENT. ON TOP OF THAT MY VEHICLE, WHICH I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IN, WAS RETURNED TO ME FILTHY AND WITH A BROKEN SEAT. AFTER OVER 30 DAYS IN A DEALERSHIP AND IT COULDNT EVEN BE DETAILED OR CLEANED?? MAYBE AN OIL CHANGE? I HAVE COMPLAINED TO DODGE AND THEY ARE SWEEPING IT UNDER THE RUG JUST AS THE DEALERSHIP HAS DONE.

I HAVE TOOKEN THE CAR MULTIPLE TIMES TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THE SAME EXACT REASON AND ITS ALWAYS THE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT AIR BAG THE AIRBAG WAS REPLACED ALONG WITH THE HARNESSES LESS THEN A YEAR AGO AND NOW I HAVE A AUR BAG LIGHT AGAIN. BEFORE THAT THE AIR BAG LIGHT WOULD TURN ON AS WELL AND THEY WOULD RESET THE SYSTEM FROM WHAT THEY TIOLD ME AND MONTHS LATER AGAIN WITH AIRBAG LIGHT. THIS IS A SAFETLY ISSUE AND I CANNOT BE DRIVING THIS CAR LIKE THIS. EVERYTIME THE LIGHT WOULD TURN ON IT WOULD BE WHILE DRIVING JUST RANDOMLY

AFTER LENGTHY OIL CONSUMPTION TESTS ON CAR BY THE DEALER, I WAS TOLD IT BURNS 1 QUART OF OIL EVERY 1000 MILES AND I WOULD HAVE TO ADD OIL AT THAT RATE. ALSO TOLD THIS WAS "ACCEPTABLE" BY CHRYSLER. NO LOW OIL LIGHT COMES ON, EVEN WHEN THE ENGINE TOTALLY FAILED AND I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. CURRENTLY HAVE 25000 MILES AFTER 2.5 YEARS OWNED.
