POWER TRAIN
VEHICLE WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF PARK. CAR WAS TAKEN TO DODGE DEALER WHERE OTHER RECALLS THAT WERE ASSOCIATED WITH VIN WERE ADDRESSED (I.E. DRIVER AND PASSENGER AIRBAG) THE DEALER WAS NOT ABLE TO ADDRESS THE INTERLOCK LEVER AS IT WAS NOT IN THEIR SYSTEM AND THEY DIRECTED ME TO CONTACT CHRYSLER TO ADDRESS THE DISCREPANCY. CHRYSLER HAD ISSUED "CUSTOMER SATISFACTION NOTIFICATION K39" IN FEBRUARY OF 2011 THAT ADDRESSED THIS TRANSMISSION SHIFTER INTERLOCK LEVER. THE NOTIFICATION INDICATES THERE ARE ABOUT 28,800 VEHICLES THAT MAY BE AFFECTED AND PROVIDES INSTRUCTIONS ON GETTING IT REPAIRED IF YOUR VEHICLE BUILD DATE FALLS BETWEEN JUNE 25,2007 THROUGH SEPTEMBER 21,2007 (MY VEHICLE WAS BUILT 3 MONTHS PRIOR TO THIS WINDOW) AND BECAUSE OF THIS DOES NOT POPULATE INTO THE DEALERCONNECT GLOBAL RECALL SYSTEM. IT IS MY LOGIC THAT THE DATES ESTABLISHED IN THE NOTIFICATION DO NOT FULLY ENCOMPASS THE ISSUE BEING ADDRESSED, AND BECAUSE OF THESE HARD DATES THAT DICTATE WHETHER YOUR VEHICLE IS AFFECTED (REGARDLESS OF WHETHER OR NOT YOU ARE STUCK IN PARK) , I HAVE HAD NO PROGRESS IN DEALING WITH CHRYSLER GROUP 'RECALL' ASSISTANCE CENTER BECAUSE TO THEM, ON PAPER, MY CAR IS "NOT AFFECTED". FOR AMPLIFYING DATA, REFERENCE "CUSTOMER SATISFACTION NOTIFICATION K39"

SUSPENSION
THE CAR SHAKES AND SHIMMIES. IT HAS BEEN DOING IT FOR A FEW YEARS AND KEEPS GETTING WORSE. THE HIGHER THE SPEED THE MORE IT SHAKES. IT SHAKES RIGHT UP THE STEERING COLUMN INTO THE STEERING WHEEL. I FEAR THE SHAKING WILL RESULT IN OTHER PARTS FAILING WHICH COULD LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT. CAR IS VERY SCARY TO DRIVE. IF A STEERING ROD FAILS BECAUSE OF THIS IT COULD BE CATASTROPHIC.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), STEERING, WHEELS
MY VEHICLE WAS RELEASED TO ME FROM CARSTAR OF MACON WITH A KNOWINGLY INOPERABLE TPMS ON ALL FOUR OF MY TIRES. I WAS NOT TOLD THIS BEFORE I PAID AND DROVE AWAY. I GOT 5 MINUTES DOWN THE ROAD AND FELT VIOLENT SHAVING IN THE STEERING WHEEL. I TURNED AROUND AND DROVE THE VEHICLE BACK TO CARSTAR AND WAITED ABOUT 20 MINUTES FOR THEM TO TELL ME THAT THEY WERE AWARE THAT THE TPMS WAS INOPERABLE. THAT THEY WERE AWARE THAT ALL FOUR SENSORS WERE NOT WORKING PROPERLY AND THAT ONE HAD ACTUALLY FALLEN OUT INTO THE TIRE ITSELF AND WAS BOUNCING AROUND IN THE WHEEL WELL KNOCKING OFF THE ALIGNMENT OF THE VEHICLE. THEY GAVE ME AN OPTION OF FIXING IT OR REMOVING THE SENSORS. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY WOULD TRY TO CONTACT MY INSURENCE COMPANY TO SEE IF THEY WOULD PAY FOR THE DAMAGED PARTS THAT WERE OPERATING NORMALLY BEFORE THEY SWITCHED OUT THE NEW TIRE WHEELS. AGAIN THEY RELEASE THE VEHICLE TO ME WITH AN INOPERABLE TPMS SYSTEM AND ADVISE ME TO DRIVE OVER 60 MPH.
