AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
MY CAR STALLS WHEN I START TO DRIVE. IF I DON'T LET IT IDLE IN PARK FOR A GOOD 15 MINUTES IT WILL STALL AND TELLS ME TO PUT IT IN PARK. ONCE IT STALLS IT IS DIFFICULT TO RESTART. ALSO THE AIRBAG LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON. IF I HIT THE SMALLEST POTHOLE THE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON AND IT GIVES ME A MESSAGE STATING SERVICE AIRBAGS. ALSO THE DRIVERSIDE SEAT CAME UNTRACKED AND CANNOT MOVE IT FORWARD OR BACKWARDS WITHOUT IT MAKING A WEIRD NOISE.

AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON IN MID TO LATE 2018. CAR HAD ~65,000 AT THE TIME. HAD THE CAR DIAGNOSED AT THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WAS A WIRING HARNESS AND CHARGED ME $300 TO FIX IT. MARCH 2019, THE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON. IT APPEARS ON THE DASH FOR NO APPARENT REASON AS I'M DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. AFTER THE INITIAL AUDIBLE AND VISUAL ALARM, THE VISUAL ALARM STAYS ON AND THE AUDIBLE ALARM REPEATS EVERY MINUTE. RETURNED THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP (AUTOPARK CHRYSLER JEEP IN CARY, NORTH CAROLINA) EXPECTING THAT THE REPAIR WOULD BE COVERED DUE TO THE RECENT REPAIR. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS A DIFFERENT WIRING HARNESS AND IT WOULD BE ~$3300. WHEN I ASKED THE SERVICE MANAGER IF THE CAR WAS HAZARDOUS TO DRIVE, HE RESPONDED "ABSOLUTELY". I HAVE SINCE PARKED THE CAR AND IT HAS SAT IDLE SINCE.

ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, STEERING
THE CAR ENGINE KEEPS ON STALLING WHILE IT IS IN MOTION. THE CAR SUDDENLY STOPS WHILE I AM DRIVING IT. THERE ARE NO WARNING LIGHTS, VISUAL CUES OR SOUNDS TO INDICATE ANY PROBLEM. AS A RESULT, THE CAR'S POWER STEERING BECOMES INOPERABLE. THE SPEED OF THE CAR VARIES AT THE TIME OF EACH INCIDENT. EACH TIME THIS INCIDENT HAS HAPPENED, THE CAR HAS BECOME DISABLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET. THERE HAVE BEEN 5 INCIDENTS THIS PAST MONTH. SO FAR, THE CAR HAS BEEN ABLE TO RESTART AFTER PUTTING THE CAR IN PARK AND AFTER A COUPLE OF ATTEMPTS OF PUSHING THE START BUTTON ALONG WITH STEPPING ON THE BRAKES. IT USUALLY TAKES A COUPLE OF MINUTES. DURING THAT TIME, MY CAR IS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET AND IN TRAFFIC. I HAVE HAD MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR DURING SOME OF THESE INCIDENTS. IT IS AN EXTREME SAFETY RISK.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
THE CAR GOES INTO NEUTRAL BY ITSELF WHILE DRIVING ON THE CITY STREET. WARNING LIGHT INDICATED I NEEDED MY TRANSMISSION SERVICED WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY THEN WENT AWAY AFTER I LET THE CAR SIT. TRANSMISSION SLIPPED DURING THAT TIME CAUSING THE CAR NOT TO BE ABLE TO ACCELERATE PROPERLY TO KEEP UP WITH THE SPEED LIMIT. KEY HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY LEFT FRONT TIRE SUSPENSION. BATTERY DIED OUT THE BLUE WHILE PARKED. KEY FOB SAYS ITS UNDETECTED BUT I HAVE IT IN MY HAND. I HAVE TO PUT THE KEY DIRECTLY ON THE IGNITION BUTTON THEN PUSH THE BUTTON TO START THE CAR. I WANTED TO ALSO INDICATE SUSPENSION. THE CAR RATTLES WHILE DRIVING ON REGULAR BUMPY ROADS. MY LEFT TIRE HAS AN ISSUE THE MECHANIC COULDN'T FIGURE OUT.
