ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
FOR THE PASSED 3 YEARS OUR VEHICLE HAS SWITCHED GEARS FROM DRIVE TO 3RD GEAR, WHILE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE JOLTS AND CHANGES GEAR FOR A FEW MONTHS AND RETURNS BACK TO NORMAL. WE CONTINUE TO USE IT AT 3RD GEAR. THERE IS NO WAY TO CHANGE IT BACK TO DRIVE MANUALLY. WE'VE TAKEN IT IN TO AUTO SHOPS AND THE SYMPTOMS RETURN. *TR

ENGINE
I BOUGHT MY 1ST NEW CAR EVER HOPING TO KEEP IT FOREVER. I TREAT IT VERY WELL ALL SERVICES DONE ON TIME AND WITH TOP QUALITY PRODUCT. AT 105,000 MILES MY VALVE DROPPED IN THE ENGINE RUINING THE COMPLETE BLOCK. THIS HAPPENED IN MY DRIVEWAY AS I STARTED IT TO LEAVE. COSTING ME 8,278.40 TO REPLACE MY ENGINE. AFTER THIS I HAVE LEARNED THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM TO WHICH CHRYSLER HAS YET TO ADMIT FAULT! I WILL HOLD OUT HOPE AND KEEP PAYING THAT ENGINE BILL FINGERS CROSSED SOMEDAY THEY WILL COMPINCATE ME.

THE VEHICLE WILL LOSE ALL POWER WHILE DRIVING AND STALL. NONE OF THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS WILL WORK AND SOMETIMES THE CAR WILL NOT START BACK UP. THE RECALL FOR THE IGNITION SWITCH WAS REPLACED BUT THIS PROBLEM STILL HAPPENS. IT HAS BEEN RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES FOR THIS ISSUE WITH NO ACTUAL FIX FOR THE PROBLEM. WHEN THE SYSTEM FAILS, ALL THE DASH LIGHTS AND FAULTS LIGHTS FLASH ON AND OFF BEFORE SHUTTING DOWN. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING AS WELL AS NOT STARTING AFTER TURNING OFF THE VEHICLE. IT HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE NOW FOR A FEW YEARS NOW WITH NO FIX FOR THE PROBLEM SINCE. *TR

ENGINE
TAKATA RECALL THE MOTOR KEEPS DYING WHILE DRIVING. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC THAT TOLD ME THAT THE MOTOR WAS DEFECTIVE AND THE MOTOR HAS TO BE REPLACED. THE ENGINE ONLY HAS LESS THAN 85000 MILES. THE MECHANIC TOLD US TO BUY A JASPER MOTOR BECAUSE JASPER MADE CHANGES TO THE MOTOR BECAUSE THE ORIGINAL MOTOR WAS DEFECTIVE. MOPAR NO LONGER MAKES THE MOTOR AND REFERRED US TO AN AER MOTOR. THE PARTS DEPARTMENT AT CHRYSLER SAID THAT THEY ARE NOT SURE OR NOT IF THE ORIGINAL MOPAR MOTOR HAS MADE THE SAME CHANGES TO THE MOTOR THAT JASPER HAS MADE. JASPER STATES THAT CHANGES HAVE BEEN MADE TO THE MOTOR AND SPECIFICALLY STATES THAT IMPROVEMENTS HAVE BEEN MADE TO SOLVE THE DEFECTIVE ISSUES OF AN ORIGINAL 2006 MOTOR. I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE IT HAS HAPPENED TO. MOTORS WERE BEING REPLACED AT 75,000 MILES ARE A COMMON PROBLEM ACCORDING TO GOOGLE ON THIS MODEL. *TR
