ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
WHILE DRIVING HOME, A BURNING SMELL CAME FROM THE AIR VENTS AFTER TURNING ON THE HEATER. IMMEDIATELY SHUT OFF THE HEATER AND PULLED OVER TO CHECK THE VEHICLE. TURNED THE CAR OFF LIFTED THE HOOD. PERFORMED VISUAL INSPECTION NOTHING NOTED, SLIGHT BURNING SMELL BUT NO INDICATION OF ANYTHING OUT OF PLACE. RESTARTED THE CAR AND CONTINUED HOME USING HAZARDS AND MINIMAL SPEED. AFTER FOUR MINUTES DASH INDICATOR OF BATTERY CAME ON IMMEDIATELY GOING OUT AND THE LIGHTNING BOLT APPEARED. THIS WAS FOLLOWED BY ABS, TRACTION CONTROL, AIRBAGS AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATING. ODOMETER FLAT LINED EVEN THOUGH CAR WAS STILL RUNNING. THEN THE ENTIRE CAR DIED WHILE DOING FORTY MPH. POWER STEERING AND BRAKES WENT STIFF. I WAS ABLE TO TURN INTO A PARKING LOT AND TURNED OFF IGNITION. CHECKED UNDER HOOD AGAIN NOTHING WRONG VISUALLY. CONTACTED INSURANCE COMPANY FOR A TOW TO NEATEST DEALERSHIP. THE NEXT DAY RECEIVED CALL FROM DEALERSHIP SAYING THE ALTERNATOR(160 AMP) WAS COMPLETELY FRIED AND HAD A BLOWN CELL IN THE BATTERY WHICH WAS ONLY 15 MONTHS OLD. DEALERSHIP QUOTED $1100.00 REPAIR PRICE AND WAS STILL UNSURE IF ANY OTHER SYSTEMS HAD BEEN AFFECTED. WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO DETERMINE UNTIL NEW BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR HAD BEEN REPLACED. IN SEPTEMBER OF 2014 REPLACED THE TIPM( TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE) AFTER MULTIPLE STARTING FAILURES AND CONTINUALLY RUNNING FUEL PUMP HAD BEEN FOUND, AND NOW 18 MONTHS LATER MY ALTERNATOR FAILS WITH NO WARNING OR INDICATIONS. IN ADDITION THE SAME ALTERNATOR IS LISTED UNDER A CHRYSLER DEFECT NUMBER P60, HOWEVER CHRYSLER INFORMED ME BECAUSE MY CAR IS NOT ON THE LIST IT DOESN'T APPLY.

SERVICE BRAKES
BRAKE PADS, ROTORS & CALIPERS HAVE HAD TO BE REPLACED 3 TIMES. CAR IS NOW AT 57,000 MILES. IF EVEN GENTLY USING THE BRAKES IN STOP & GO TRAFFIC BACKUP ON HIGHWAY, WHEN CAR NEEDS TO ACCELERATE, STEERING WHEEL VIBRATES BADLY AND TROUBLE GETTING CAR UP TO SPEED. OBVIOUS THAT SOMETHING IS STICKING REGARDING THE BRAKES. WHEN FINALLY UP TO SPEED, PROBLEM DISAPPEARS (60MPH). VERY FRIGHTENING & POTENTIAL SERIOUS ACCIDENT PROBLEM. I DRIVE LONG DISTANCES AT NIGHT TO & FROM WORK EVENTS & DON'T NEED TO BE STRANDED ON A DESERTED HIGHWAY SOMEWHERE AT MIDNIGHT. WHY HAS THERE BEEN NO RECALL ON A PROBLEM THAT EVERYONE, INCLUDING THE DODGE MECHANICS, KNOW ABOUT! THIS HAS BECOME AN ONGOING ISSUE, FIRST ON FEB. 14, THEN FEB. 16 AND AGAIN FEB. 26. REAR BRAKE PAD AFTER FEB. 14 WAS TOTALLY BURNED OFF ~ WAS REPLACED & STILL THE ISSUE IS OCCURRING, NOW ON THE FRONT BRAKES.
