AIR BAGS
MY AIRBAG LIGHT IS CONSTANTLY COMING ON. THE REASON FOR THE LIGHT IS THE AIRBAG SWITCH UNDER THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE SEAT. WHENEVER THE IS ON A BUMPY ROAD OR IT IS TAPPED BY SOMEONE'S FEET IN THE BACK SEAT THE LIGHT IS TRIPPED.

SERVICE BRAKES
WHEN THE VEHICLE STARTS TO SLIP JUST A LITTLE BIT WHILE GOING SLOWER SPEEDS THE PARKING BREAK AUTOMATICALLY ENGAGES. THIS HAS CAUSED MY VEHICLE TO GET STUCK IN THE SNOW AND MUD MULTIPLE TIMES, AS WHERE HAD IT NOT HAPPENED AND I COULD HAVE KEPT THE VEHICLE MOVING I WOULD NOT HAVE GOT STUCK. I'M WORRIED THE PARKING BREAK MAY TRY TO ENGAGE WHILE GOING FASTER SPEEDS AND STARTING TO HYDROPLANE/SLIDE/ETC. THIS CAN CAUSE HUGE LIFE THREATENING ACCIDENTS IF IT WERE TO HAPPEN. THE MOST RECENT TIME IS APRIL 17TH IN A LITTLE BIT OF MUD. BUT HAPPENED APPROCIMATELY 10 TIMES OVER THIS PAST WINTER ALONE. EVEN THOUGH THERE WASN'T A CRASH, I DID GET STUCK AND NEEDED HELP TO GET OUT.

I HAVE A 2013 CHRYSLER 200 WITH THE 'PENTASTAR TICK'. A KNOWN PROBLEM TO BE FOUND IN THE 2011 TO 2013 DODGE, JEEP, AND CHRYSLER. THIS ISSUE COMES FROM THE CYLINDER HEAD OR IN MY CASE THE CAMSHAFT ROCKERS AND LIFTERS. THESE ARE KNOWN ISSUES WITH THE PENTASTAR ENGINE, TO THE POINT IT HAS RECEIVED THE NAME THE 'PENTASTAR TICK'. A 150,000 MILE WARRANTY HAS BEEN EXTENDED TOWARD THE CYLINDER, BUT AS FOR THE CAMSHAFT NO EXTENDED WARRANTY HAS BEEN AUTHORIZED. SINCE LESS CONSUMERS ARE AFFECTED BY OR REPORT THE CAMSHAFT ISSUE, FIAT CHRYSLER AUTO FEELS IT IS NOT LIABLE. A PROBLEM THEY KNOW EXIST BUT IF IT APPEARS AT THE END OF THE 5 YEARS/100,000 MILE WARRANTY AND IT DOES NOT INCLUDE ANY LIFE THREATENING ISSUE FOR THE CAR OWNER, THEY ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PENTASTAR ENGINE.

LEADING UP TO THE ENGINE GOING OUT THE CAR WOULD JUST RANDOMLY CUT OFF WHILE IN MOTION AND ALSO MAKING TURNS. I TOOK IT BACK TO THIS DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED THAT THE ENGINE WENT OUT. ON JUNE 14,2016 THAT'S WHEN I GOT AN ENGINE REPLACED. I ASK IF IT WAS NEW OR USED AND THEY ASSURED ME THAT IT WAS A NEW ENGINE. HOWEVER KEEPING UP WITH OIL CHANGES, MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD THAT I NEEDED A TUNE UP DONE. SO I GOT MY SPARK PLUGS CHANGED. AFTER THAT THE CAR WOULD JUST CUT OFF WHILE IN MOTION AND ALSO TURNING. I TRIED DRIVING THE CAR TO WORK WHILE TURNING IT ON WHENEVER IT CUTS OFF. THE BRAKES GOT SO TIGHT ON ME THAT I HAD TO USE BOTH FEET TO STOP THE VEHICLE. I GOT THE CAR TOWED TO A CAR SHOP AND THEY STATED THAT THIS CAR HAD TO BE LOOKED AT BY A DEALERSHIP.SO I GOT THE CAR TOWED TO THE NEAREST CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED THAT THERE WAS 4 THINGS WRONG WITH THIS CAR. THEN CALLED ME BACK AND STATED THAT THIS CAR NEEDED AN ENGINE. THIS CAR IS UNDER A HUNDRED THOUSAND MILES AND WITH THIS PROBLEM OCCURRING AGAIN FOR THE SECOND TIME. LOOKING FOR HELP AND ANSWERS.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
I HAVE A CHRYSLER 200C AWD 2015 THAT IS CONTINUALLY SABOTAGED/REFUSAL TO FIX BY VARIOUS CHRYSLER DEALERS SINCE COMPLAINING ABOUT A WARRANTY FIX ISSUE EARLY ON. EVER SINCE ITS BEEN A SERIES A MISHAPS SINCE GOING TO THE DEALER. GATOR CHRYSLER OF MELBOURNE, FL AND BONAFICE HEIRS CHRYSLER OF MERRITT ISLAND, FL BOTH AGGRESSIVELY TRY TO GET ME TO TRADE THE VEHICLE IN INSTEAD OF FIXING IT. REPEATEDLY THEY STATE THEY ARE NOT HEARING THE ISSUES THAT ARE NOT EASY TO FIX, IE TRANSMISSION HANGUP BETWEEN 4TH AND 5TH GEAR. THE CAR IS FIXED FOR VARIOUS ISSUES THAT ALWAYS REQUIRE ME TO BRING IT BACK. I WOULD LIKE SOMEONE FROM YOUR AGENCY TO PULL ALL RECORDS RELATING FROM CHRYSLER, AND BOTH OF THE AFOREMENTIONED DEALERS. THE PHONE RECORDS AND CALL LOGS ARE CRUCIAL TO THE INVESTIGATION. ALSO I OPENED ARBITRATION THAT WAS IGNORED AND I FEEL THE CAR IS A LEMON. CHRYSLER AT THIS POINT REFUSES TO FIX THE CAR TO STANDARDS. EACH TIME THEY SAY AND LIST ON THE PAPERWORK THAT THEY WILL BE DOING A 16 MULTIPOINT INSPECTION. REPEATEDLY THIS IS STATED TO BE DONE, BUT THE TIMELINE OF FIXES DO NOT ALIGN. I'M NOT SMART ENOUGH AND NEED AN ENGINEER FROM CHRYSLER TO PHYSICALLY COME TO A LOCAL LOCATION TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE. SCOTT PELLEY AND SECRET SHOPPERS SHOULD BE DONE MIRRORING THIS SCENERIO AS HEARSAY IS THIS IS COMMON PRACTICE GIVEN THE NUMBER OF ELDERLY IN THIS AREA. I CAN'T FORMALLY MAKE THIS ACCUSATION, BUT FROM MISSING TIRES, MYSTERIOUS MISHAPS AND THEN BEING OUT THE VEHICLE, STOOD UP FOR RENTALS, ETC. THE MAIN POINT NOW IS I WAS TOLD THE COOLANT WOULD BE CHECKED STANDARD IN A MULTIPOINT INSPECTION, BUT IT WAS NOT BECAUSE WHEN I LEFT BONAFICE HEIRS CHRYSLER IT IMMEDIATELY OVERHEATED. THEY ARE BREAKING THE CAR TO GET BACK AT ME AND MAKE ME LOOK NONCREDIBLE IN THE DISORGANIZATION. I JUST KNOW ITS ALL FISHY AND IS BEYOND ME AT THIS POINT TO AUDIT, BUT NEEDS TO BE DONE FOR SAFETY.
