SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
TIPM CONTROL UNIT IS DEFECTIVE CAUSING HEADLIGHTS TO GO OUT AND QUIT WORKING ALTOGETHER INITIALLY SWITCHING FROM LOW TO HIGH BEAM HEADLIGHTS WOULD GO OUT IF I TURNED THEM OFF AND THEN BACK ON THEY WOULD WORK AGAIN BUT THIS TIME THEY QUIT ALTOGETHER. CHRYSLER DOES NOT HAVE THE PART IN STOCK AND HAS SINCE ACCORDING TO THEM DISCONTINUED THE PART. I AM LOOKING FOR ANOTHER SOURCE TO REPAIR OR SOMEONE IS SELLING THEM AT THIS TIME. ALSO BRAKE WARNING LIGHT COMES ON FOR NO REASON. ALSO LOW WASHER FLUID LIGHT COMES ON FOR NO REASON AS IT DOES NOT HAVE THE SENSOR.

SUSPENSION
REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILURE. ON SEPT 14, 2015 I WAS PULLING OUT OF A PARKING LOT WHEN I HEARD A LOUD BANG. MY TRUCK STOP MOVING CAUSING ME TO APPLY THE BRAKE. WHEN I TRIED TO PUT THE TRUCK IN PARK IT WOULD NOT ENGAGE. THERE WAS A PERSON WALKING IN THE PARKING LOT AND INFORMED ME THAT MY REAR END WAS LEAKING FLUID. I WAS ON A SLIGHT INCLINE SO I WAS ABLE TO COAST IN A PARKING SPACE AND APPLY THE PARKING BRAKE. WHEN I GOT OUT OF THE TRUCK I SEEN THE FLUID POURING OUT. AT THIS TIME I CALLED AAA AND HAD A TOW TRUCK SENT TO THIS AREA. WHEN THE TOW TRUCK ARRIVED THE DRIVER WAS LOADING THE TRUCK ONTO THE FLAT BED AND THAT'S WHEN MYSELF AND THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER SEEN A SILVER DOLLAR SIZE HOLE ON THE FRONT SIDE OF THE PUMPKIN JUST BELOW THE DRIVE SHAFT. I CONTACTED MY MECHANIC AND TOLD HIM ABOUT THIS INCIDENT AND LET HIM KNOW I WOULD BE SENDING THE TRUCK TO HIM FOR FURTHER INSPECTION. MY MECHANIC CONTACTED ME ON SEPT 15, 2015 AND INFORMED ME THAT THE PINION SHAFT SNAPPED OFF THE GEAR AND THE HOLE I SEEN WAS THE SHAFT TRYING TO COME THROUGH THE HOUSING. MY MECHANIC STATED IN HIS PROFESSIONAL OPINION THIS WAS A FACTORY DEFECT THE WAY THIS SHAFT SNAPPED OFF CLEAN. I TRULY BELIEVE THAT THIS NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED IMMEDIATELY BEFORE SOMEONE GETS (KILLED). I WAS ONLY DRIVING ABOUT 7MPH THROUGH THE PARKING LOT., HAD I BEEN TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS THIS COULD HAVE ENDED FATAL FOR ME OR ANYONE TRAVELING NEXT TOO ME. BEING THAT THIS SHAFT WAS ABLE TO DO THIS KIND OF DAMAGE TO A STEEL HOUSING MOVING AT THIS LOW RATE OF SPEED.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
FCA IS APPARENTLY NOT HOLDING UP THEIR END OF THE CONSENT DECREE. FIRST I'M TOLD AT A DEALER THAT THEY AREN'T HANDLING THE BUYBACKS, THEN FCA CUSTOMER SERVICE TELLS ME THEY CAN "OPT OUT" BECAUSE THEY'RE PRIVATELY OWNED. ALL OF THEM ARE PRIVATELY OWNED! THE RECALL NOTICE, HOWEVER, SAYS TAKE MY TRUCK TO THE LOCAL DEALER TO GET THE BALL ROLLING. THEY'RE ALSO ONLY OFFERING 10% ABOVE "FAIR MARKET VALUE" WHEN THE CONSENT DECREE SPECIFICALLY SAYS 10% ABOVE THE ORIGINAL PURCHASE PRICE. THERE'S A HUGE DIFFERENCE THERE AND AS USUAL, FCA CARES NOTHING ABOUT THE CUSTOMER ONLY THEIR BOTTOM LINE.
