POWER TRAIN
I WAS DRIVING TO MY RESIDENCE WHEN THE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT OF GEAR AND WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO ANY GEAR. FORTUNATELY I WAS IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD WHEN IT HAPPENED AND THE TOW SERVICE HAD TO CALL THE DEALER TO GET THE CAR REBOOTED AND TURNED OFF, AS IT WAS STILL RUNNING. THIS HAPPENED IN CLOSE TO MY HOUSE AND I WAS LUCKY THAT IT DID NOT HAPPEN ON THE INTERSTATE. I AM REPORTING THIS AS IT IS A REAL SAFETY ISSUE. IT HAS HAPPENED TWICE IN THE LAST THREE DAYS. THE FIRST TIME WAS SUNDAY THE 17TH IF MARCH AND AGAIN ON THE 19TH OF MARCH 2019. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO WHERE I PURCHASED IT, (HILL- KELLY CHRYSTLER, DODGE, JEEP PENSACOLA, FL. (XXXX). THIS IS MY FATHER'S NUMBER (XXXXX). PLEASE CONTACT HIM AS HE IS HELPING ME.

MY CAR SHUT OFF ON ITS OWN WHILE I WAS DRIVING TO WORK, SO WE WERE IN MOTION. IT HAS NOW HAPPENED 4 TIMES TO ME IN A SPAN OF 3 WEEKS. I CAN EITHER BE DRIVING DURING THE DAY OR NIGHT.

SERVICE BRAKES
WHEN DRIVING YOU HIT A BUMP YOU HEAR A METAL CLANGING NOISE COMING FROM THE TIRE. WHEN YOU ENGAGE THE BREAKS THEY GO ABOUT HALFWAY DOWN BEFORE CATCHING AS IF THEY HAVE AIR IN THE LINES AND SOMETIMES YOU HEAR A HIDING NOISE. YOU CAN BE SITTING WITH THE BREAKS ENGAGED AND THEY WILL GO SOFT AND THE CAR WILL MOVE UNTIL THEY CAGE ON THEIR OWN.

ENGINE, STEERING
I HAVE HAD SEVERAL PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR. THE MAIN PROBLEM IS WHEN THE OIL GETS LOW, THE OIL LIGHT DOESN'T COME ON, AND THE CAR SHUTS DOWN. THIS CAUSES THE STEERING WHEEL TO LOCK UP, AND IT BECOMES HARD TO PROPERLY PULL THE CAR OVER SAFELY. WHEN WILL DODGE RECALL THIS ENGINE?!!

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
BATTERY NEEDS TO BE REPLACED ABOUT EVERY 6 MONTHS DUE TO SOMETHING DRAINING THE BATTERY BUT NOTHING HAS BEEN FOUND. ELECTRICAL IS ALL MESSED UP, THE COMPUTER SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONS. WHEN CAR IS TURNED ON AT RANDOMLY THE AIR AND MUSIC WILL GO FULL BLAST AND IT CANNOT BE TURNED DOWN OR SHUT OFF. MECHANICALLY THE CAR IS RUNNING FINE BUT THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE MOVES UP AND DOWN WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE SITTING STILL DUE TO ELECTRICAL ISSUES. WHEN DRIVING ON NORMAL BACKROADS OR HIGHWAYS THERE IS A LOUD CLUNKING NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE AREA AND NOTHING HAS BEEN FOUND AS TO WHY IT MAKES THE NOISE.
