SUSPENSION
WHILE GOING APPX. 55-70MPH, ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, GO OVER A BUMP IN ROAD (DOES NOT HAVE TO BE A BIG BUMP) VEH. STARTS SHAKING, STEERING WHEEL HAS BEEN JERKED OUT OF MY HANDS. HAVE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND DOES NOT MATTER WHERE. VEH. PULLS EXTREMELY HARD NOT WANTING TO GO FORWARD. MANY YOUTUBE VIDEOS HAVE ALSO BEEN DOCUMENTED ON THIS. MAYBE IF I MARKED A TRAFFIC ACCIDENT OR DEATH CAUSED BY THIS, JEEP WOULD DO SOMETHING. I HAVE COMPLETED A FIX THAT HAS BEEN GOOD NOW FOR SEVERAL MONTHS. REPLACED BALL JOINTS, ADDED TO STEERING SHOCKS TO KEEP STEERING FORWARD, REPLACE BOTH TIE RODS, FRONT END ALIGNMENT, NEW SHOCKS (ALL 4). HAVE PAID OUT MY PART ON KEEPING MY JEEP SERVICED. BUT, JEEP STILL HAS NOT ANSWERED THIS COMPLAINT NOW FOR YEARS. EXPAND QUESTION: WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN. IT HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM SINCE I BOUGHT IT NEW IN 2007. JEEP DEALERSHIP COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG.

TAKATA RECALL. ENOUGH, IT HAS BEEN IN EXCESS OF ALMOST A YEAR THAT THE RECALL WAS FIRST ISSUED. TAKATA AT THIS STAGE SHOULD REPLACE MY VEHICLE SINCE THE THREAT OF USING THE VEHICLE WITH THE RECALL IS DANGEROUS TO ANY PASSENGER. I AM TIRED OF HAVING TO USE MY OTHER VEHICLES TO AS TO AVOID PASSENGERS IN THE FRONT. EITHER REPLACE THE VEHICLE AT NO CHARGE OR ISSUE A DIRECTIVE TO HAVE THE AIRBAG SYSTEM REMOVED IN ITS ENTIRETY BY A LOCAL DEALER. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I ORIGINALLY TOOK MY JEEP IN TO THE DEALER SHIP BECAUSE EVERY TIME I WOULD FILL UP THE GAS WOULD OVERFLOW. THEY SAID THAT THEY REPLACED HE FILLER NECK BECAUSE THERE WAS A RECALL ON THAT. NOW IT TAKES 30 MINUTES TO FILL UP THE TANK FROM 1/4 TANK BECAUSE THE GAS PUMP WILL CLICK OFF EVERY 2 SECONDS.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I'VE HAD IT IN THE SHOP THREE TIMES FOR THE SAME ISSUE. WHILE DRIVING THE ENGINE WILL STALL. IT MAY START BACK UP, OR IT MAY TAKE 10 MINUTES FOR IT TO RESTART. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS I BELIEVE IT TO BE A FAULTY TIPM. AT TIMES WHEN IT STALLS, THE BLOWER MOTOR ON THE A/C WILL CONTINUE TO RUN EVEN WITH THE KEY OFF AND OUT OF THE IGNITION. MY CONCERN IS THE LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES WHEN IT STALLS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THIS IS A BIG SAFETY HAZARD. THERE ARE MULTIPLE COMPLAINT FOR THIS SAME ISSUE. I HAVE HAD THE TIPM REPROGRAMMING THAT IS ON RECALL. THIS DIDN'T HELP THE PROBLEM. *TR

TAKATA RECALL: IN JULY 2016 I RECEIVED NOTICE FOR DRIVER AND PASSENGER AIR BAG SAFETY RECALL. AT THAT TIME NO REPLACEMENT PARTS WERE AVAILABLE & I WAS TOLD THAT AVAILABILITY WAS UNKNOWN AT THAT TIME. IN EARLY DECEMBER I WAS NOTIFIED THAT PARTS WERE AVAILABLE BUT NOW FOR ONLY ONE OF THE AIRBAGS AND THAT WAS REPAIRED. HOWEVER, AS TO THE 2ND AIRBAG, AGAIN THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE AND THERE IS NO KNOWN DATE WHEN THE PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. TO BE TOLD THAT THERE IS A DEFECT AND NOW WAITING OVER 5 MONTHS FOR COMPLETE REPAIR IS NOT RIGHT AND EXTREMELY DISCONCERTING. WHY MAY JEEP TAKE SO LONG TO REPAIR THIS DANGEROUS PROBLEM?

TAKATA RECALL: I HAVE RECEIVED THREE NOTICES FROM FCA ABOUT THE CRITICAL NEED TO HAVE MY VEHICLE REPAIRED, AND YET FOR SIX MONTHS NOW, THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PART AVAILABLE. CAN YOU PLEASE COMPEL THEM TO DELIVER THE PART TO A DEALER NEAR ME (IN GLENDALE CALIFORNIA) SO THAT I CAN RESOLVE THIS MATTER QUICKLY. MY FORMAL COMPLAINT TO THEM IS ATTACHED. I HAVE REPEATEDLY REACHED OUT TO THEIR DEALERS WHO CLAIM THAT THEY ARE AT THE MERCY OF THE FACTORY TO SUPPLY THE PARTS NEEDED. YOUR INTERVENTION WOULD BE APPRECIATED SINCE THEY DO NOT RESPECT OR RESPOND TO ME. I HAVE HAD NO INCIDENTS OTHER THAN THE REPETITIVE WARNING LETTERS FROM THE FACTORY, AND THEIR NOT BEING ABLE TO RESOLVE THE MATTER DESPITE THEIR TELLING ME THAT THE FAILURE TO ADDRESS THIS MATTER IMMEDIATELY MIGHT RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. IF THEY ARE SENDING OUT NOTICES LIKE THIS, THEY SHOULD BE COMPELLED TO RESOLVE IT RIGHT AWAY. SINCERELY, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

SEAT BELTS
BOTH FRONT SEAT-BELTS LOCKED UP WITH THE JEEP PARKED. THEY WILL NOT UNLOCK TO ALLOW YOU TO BUCKLE SO THAT YOU CAN DRIVE SAFELY. WE TOOK TO A JEEP DEALERSHIP; BUT THEY WANT TO CHARGE US OVER 500 A SEAT TO FIX- SAID IT RAN OUT OF WARRANTY AT 60,000 MILES. THIS MAKES THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I FEEL THAT THEY MAY BE REQUIRED BY YOU GUYS TO COVER SEAT-BELTS LONGER THAN THAT. I HAVE A INVOICE SHOWING THAT WE TOOK THE JEEP IN AND THAT THE SEAT-BELT RETRACTORS ARE STUCK, BUT NO WAY TO UPLOAD FROM HOME.
