THE CAR HAS SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. I BOUGHT THE CAR USED LAST YEAR IN MARCH 2018. IT HAD ISSUES W/JERKING BETWEEN GEARS AND "HOPPING", BUT SEVERAL MONTHS AGO, JUST SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING 75 MPH ON A HIGHWAY (TWICE IN 15 MINS). DEALERSHIP ATTEMPTED TO FIX. BUT, ITS BACK TO SAME PROBLEM. IT SHUT OFF TUESDAY WHILE OUT OF TOWN AT A HOTEL WHILE PULLING OUT ONTO A 5 LANE ROAD. SUPPOSEDLY FIXED, AND THEN SHUT OFF ON INTERSTATE 695 AROUND BALTIMORE LAST NIGHT WHILE TWO LANES OF TRAFFIC OVER. SHUTTING OFF WITH -0- WARNING WHILE TRAVELING ON BUSY INTERSTATES IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND POSSIBLE LIFE THREATENING. PER RESEARCH, THIS SEEMS TO BE A MAJOR ISSUE FOR THIS CAR, NOT SURE WHY NHTSA HAS NOT RECALLED IT YET.

WHEN I'M DRIVING MY CAR IT PUTS ITSELF IN NEUTRAL. EITHER FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE, AT A STOP SIGN, ACCELERATING ON HIGHWAY. IT'S NOT A CURRENT ISSUE IT DOES IT WHEN IT WANTS AND ITS NOT SAFE BUT EVERY DEALERSHIP TELLS ME THERE IS "NOTHING" WRONG WITH MY CAR I'VE BEEN FIGHTING WITH DEALERSHIPS SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR OF THE SHOW ROOM FLOOR, AND THE PROBLEM STILL ISN'T FIXED AND WITH A BABY ON THE WAY I REFUSE TO PUT OUR CHILD IN IT WITH HOW UNSAFE IT IS.

I HAVE HAD MY THE CAR COMPLETELY CUT OF SEVERAL TIMES WITHOUT WARNING. RECENTLY AS I WAS BACKING OUT OF THE DRIVE WAY THE CAR TURNED OFF WHILE IN MOTION AND ALL LIGHTS WENT OUT. AFTER ABOUT 5 MINUTES THE CAR WAS ABLE TO START AND I MOVED IT BACK INTO THE DRIVEWAY. IT IS LIKE IT LOST ALL POWER BECAUSE THE CLOCK WAS NO LONGER SET TO THE CORRECT TIME. THAT WAS ON MONDAY 1/28/2019. TODAY AS APPROACHING A STOP SIGN THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN. WITHOUT WARNING AND NO LIGHTS ON THE DASH BOARD. I HAVE NOTICED THAT OTHER CARS WITHIN THE SAME YEAR HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR SIMILAR ISSUES BUT I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY NOTIFICATION. I WOULD LIKE MY CAR LOOKED AT FREE OF CHARGE AS THIS IS A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. IF I AM IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AND THE CAR JUST DECIDES TO TURN OFF WHILE IN MOTION I CAN BE SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED. THIS IS ALSO NOT THE FIRST TIME I HAVE FILLED THIS FORM OUT..

TAKATA RECALL.. I WENT TO GALENA TWICE FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. EACH TIME THEY'VE TOLD ME THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM. MY SERVICE PARK BRAKE COMES ON AND SO DOES THE SERVICE TRANSMISSION, IT COMES ON WHEN I START THE CAR AND DOESN'T ALLOW ME TO SHIFT GEARS. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I'VE HAD TO DEAL WITH THIS PROBLEM. I AM BORDERLINE WANTING TO GO FORTH WITH A LAWSUIT BECAUSE I FEAR MY LIFE IS IN DANGER WHEN I DRIVE THIS CAR. BUT I HAVE NO CHOICE. I HAVE THREE JOBS AND I'M A FULL TIME STUDENT SO I NEED TRANSPORTATION THAT'S RELIABLE AND I FEEL LIKE WITH THIS CAR IT'S [XXX] FAR FROM IT.

ON DECEMBER 8TH, THE VEHICLE HAD TURNED OFF ON ME WHILE IN MOTION. IT GAVE ME A SLIGHT CHANCE TO PULL OVER. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES SINCE DECEMBER 8TH. 2 MORE TIMES BEFORE THAT DATE IN 2017 (THE SAME YEAR I GOT THIS CAR) TURNS OUT THERE WAS NO OIL LEFT IN MY CAR, EVEN THOSE MY DASH BOARD SAID THERE WAS 34% OF OIL LEFT. I TOOK THE CAR TO MY MECHANIC TO FIGURE OUT WHY THE OIL WAS RUNNING OUT SO FAST. WHETHER THERE WAS A LEAK OR SOMETHING. TURNS OUT THE PISTON RINGS IN THE CAR ARE BAD, TO FIX THIS HE SAID THE ENGINE WOULD HAVE TO BE TAKEN PART FULLY AND FIXED WHICH COULD ALSO SHOW MORE UNDERLYING ISSUES. (IF ANY)

AIR BAGS
THE "SERVICE AIR BAG" LIGHT CAME ON IN MY CAR A FEW MONTHS AGO. I RECENTLY GOT IT IN TO GET IT SERVICED AT A CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY RAN DIAGNOSTICS AND SAID THAT A HARNESS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED IN MY VEHICLE WHICH WOULD COST AROUND $2500. THE PERSON AT THE DEALERSHIP ALSO SAID THAT IT WAS A POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE. I, UNFORTUNATELY, DO NOT HAVE THE MEANS TO GET THIS REPAIR. MY WARRANTY IS UP AS WELL. THE CAR IS ONLY FOUR YEARS OLD WITH LESS THAN 30,000 MILES ON IT. I DID NOT GET INTO AN ACCIDENT THAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED THE AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY OR DO ANY OTHER SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE.

VEHICLE IS TRYING TO STALL OUT WHILE DRIVING AND IN SITTING POSITION.ALWAYS HAPPENS RIGHT AFTER I RE-FUEL. IT STARTS JERKING, SOMETIMES IT IS A SLIGHT JERK BUT TODAY IT JERKED VERY HARD THAT IT REALLY SCARED ME. ALSO WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE IT STRUGGLES TO START UP. IT WILL CONTINUE TO NOT DRIVE RIGHT FOR A LITTLE BIT OF TIME AND THEN IT GOES BACK TO DRIVING FINE UNTIL I RE-FUEL AGAIN. IT STARTED ABOUT A MONTH AGO AND HAS NEVER STOPPED SINCE THEN. I HAVE LOOKED UP RECALLS FOR THIS ISSUE AND IT SHOWS I DON'T HAVE ONE. THIS REALLY NEEDS TO BE CHECKED OUT AND BECOME A RECALL
