AIR BAGS, SEAT BELTS
I CALLED MY DEALERSHIP TO HAVE AN UNRELATED ISSUE LOOKED AT AND WAS NOTIFIED ABOUT THE POSSIBLE FAILURE OF MY SEAT BELTS AND AIR BAGS. I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY OTHER NOTIFICATION ABOUT THIS MATTER. I WAS TOLD THE PARTS FOR THE RECALL MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL JUNE/JULY OF THIS YEAR. I WILL RISK THE SAFETY OF MYSELF AND MY FAMILY, INCLUDING A TEEN DRIVER, IF I CONTINUE TO OPERATE THIS CAR BEFORE THE REPAIR CAN BE MADE.

THERE IS NO REMEDY TO THIS RECALL AND ITS REDICULOUS. WE ARE FORCED TO DRIVE A VEHICLE THAT IS NOT SAFE. WE CANT EVEN TRADE IT IN BECAUSE THE DEALERSHIP WONT TAKE IT. ALSO OUR BODILY INJURY INSURANCE FOR THIS JEEP IS FIVE TIMES WHAT IT USED TO COST. WE FINANCED THIS JEEP, IT IS UNBELIEVEABLE THAT WE HAVE TO DRIVE A VEHICLE THAT COULD POTENTIONALLY HURT US WORSE IF WE WERE IN A CRASH. SOMETHING NEEDS TO DONE IMMEDIATELY.

ENGINE
PURCHASED MY 2014 JEEP PATRIOT PRE-OWNED FROM A LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP. APPROXIMATELY 9 MONTHS AGO I WAS DRIVING AND THE ENGINE SPUTTERED AND SHUT DOWN. I WAS GOING 55 AND IT ALL OF THE SUDDEN SLOWED TO 30MPH. THANK GOODNESS I WAS ABLE TO GET MY CAR TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. AS SOON AS I GOT TO THE SHOULDER, I SHUT THE CAR OFF THEN RESTARTED AND WAS FINE AND I WAS ABLE TO GET HOME. THEN 3 DAYS AFTER THE FIRST INCIDENT IT HAPPENED AGAIN. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY HADN'T HEARD OF SUCH AN ISSUE. DEBATED ON TAKING THE VEHICLE IN ANYWAY BUT NEXT TIME IT STARTED AND HAS DRIVEN WITHOUT STALLING SINCE THEN. WELL, A WEEK AGO I WAS DRIVING AND THE GAS PEDAL STARTED ACTING UP AGAIN WHERE IT FELT LIKE IT HAD A BRIEF LAG IN THE ACCELERATION. I STOPPED FOR GAS ON MY WAY HOME AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START AGAIN. THIS VEHICLE IS A DEATH TRAP! I AM SCARED EVERY TIME I GET BEHIND THE WHEEL THAT ITS GOING TO TRY TO STALL WHILE I AM DRIVING OR I WILL END UP STRANDED SOMEWHERE. IN PURCHASING A JEEP I ALWAYS THOUGHT THE JEEP BRAND WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A RELIABLE VEHICLE, NOT SO MUCH NOW. I WILL NEVER WASTE MY MONEY ON ONE OF THEIR VEHICLES AGAIN!

SEATS, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I HAVE A 2014 JEEP PATRIOT (HIGH ALTITUDE ). I WAS IN MY DRIVEWAY AND PUT MY SUV IN REVERSE AND STARTED TO BACK OUT. I ONLY MADE IT ABOUT 3 FEET. SUDDENLY I HEARD A LOAD BANG AND FELT A BLOW(HIT) TO MY HEAD AND NECK. IT WAS REALLY FAST AND HARD. IT HIT SO HARD THAT I THOUGHT I WAS IN A WRECK OR SOMETHING . MY SON WAS FREAKED OUT AT THE NOISE AND THOUGHT SOMETHING HIT US TOO. AFTER LOOKING OUTSIDE OF THE CAR AND FINDING NOTHING, I NOTICED THE HEADREST WAS MESSED UP. APPARENTLY THE ACTIVE HEAD RESTRAINT DEPLOYED. I DID SOME SEARCHES ONLINE AND THIS IS NOT NORMAL AT ALL. ESPECIALLY WHILE YOUR CAR IS IN REVERSE. THIS ALSO ONLY HAPPENED ON THE DRIVER SEAT ONLY.

RECALL ISSUED BY CHRYSLER IN SEPTEMBER 2016 INVOLVING DEFECTIVE AIR BAGS AND FRONT SEATBELT PRETENSIONERS. IT IS NOW FEBRUARY 2017 AND CHRYSLER STILL HAS NOT FIXED THIS SAFETY ISSUE IN A REASONABLE TIME FRAME. ESSENTIALLY, I'M DRIVING IN A CAR WHERE I COULD BE SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED, DUE TO CHRYSLER'S NEGLIGENCE IN RESOLVING THIS RECALL PROPERLY.
