ENGINE
VEHICLE BEGAN TO JUST SHUT OFF WHEN NOT IN MOTION. TOOK THE CAR TO AUTO SHOP TO BE REPAIRED. AFTER SPENDING MORE MONEY THAN EXPECTED TO FIX WHAT THE MECHANIC THOUGHT WAS THE PROBLEM, WE STILL WERE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. FINALLY, WTE RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE ON THE GAS TANK. AFTER WAITING MONTHS FOR CHRYSLER TO SEND THE DEALERSHIP A GAS TANK FOR OUR CAR, WE FINALLY BROUGHT THE VEHICLE IN TO BE REPAIRED. CHANGED OUT THE GAS TANK , DEALERSHIP KEPT THE CAR A FEW DAYS TO TEST IT OUT, CALLED US TO PICK UP THE CAR. ON THE WAY HOME, THE VEHICLE KEPT KILLING. TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY THEY KEPT THE CAR FOR ALMOST TWO MONTHS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM, BUT THEY WERE UNSUCCESSFUL IN DIAGNOSING THE PROBLEM. AS OF TODAY THE CAR IS STILL SHUMTTING OFF AND NOBODY CAN FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM. THE CAR ONLY HAS 45000 MILES.

THE TRANSMISSION GEAR SHIFT LEVER INTERLOCK RETURN SPRING HOOK ON MY VEHICLE BROKE. THIS BROKEN INTERLOCK RETURN SPRING HOOK RESULTED IN THE INABILITY TO MOVE THE GEAR SHIFT LEVER OUT OF THE 'PARK' POSITION. THIS IN TURN LEFT ME STRANDED. SUBSEQUENTLY I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO BE SERVICED AT THE DEALERSHIP AND SUBMITTED THE RESULTING REIMBURSEMENT PAPERWORK TO CHRYSLER. SADLY, THE REIMBURSEMENT WAS DENIED B/C CHRYSLER HAS NOT INCLUDED MY VIN IN THE K39 RECALL...DESPITE ITS OBVIOUS INCLUSION. *JS
