ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
NO OIL LIGHT ON, NO ENGINE LIGHT, AND IT STALLED. THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH OIL CONSUMPTION WITH THE 2.4 ENGINE. MY CAR DIED AFTER BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND STARTING A TURN. Y CAR STALLED OUT TWICE IN THE MIDDLE OF INTERSECTIONS VERY DANGEROUS. BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON, MUSIC CONTINUED, BUT ENGINGE JUST DIED. THE STEERING WHEEL FROZE (NO MORE POWER STEERING), AND I COULDN'T PRESS MY BRAKE DOWN, IT JUST SAT THERE IN THE ROAD. I CHECKED THE LEVEL OF MY OIL AND IT DOESN'T EVEN COVER THE CURVED PART OF THE DIPSTICK, THAT'S HOW LOW IT IS.THE CAR STALLED OUT AGAIN, A FEW MONTHS AFTER THE OIL CHANGE. THE CAR IS NOT INDICATING WHEN IT NEEDS OIL, AND IS SHUTTING ITSELF OFF SO IT DOESN'T OVER HEAT WHILE DRIVING AT SPEEDS 70MPH+ AND IN THE MIDDLE OF INTERSECTIONS WHILE TURNING.

THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS INTO NEUTRAL ON IT'S OWN, FOR US IT ONLY HAPPENS WHEN WE STOP AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT. THEN IT'S DISPLAYED TO SHIFT TO NEUTRAL AND THEN TO DRIVE OR REVERSE, THIS MAY HAVE TO BE PERFORMED TWO OR THREE TIMES BEFORE THE CAR MOVE, THEN WE ONLY HAVE THE EVEN OR THE ODD GEARS DEPENDING ON WITCH CLUTCH ACTIVATES. THIS HAPPENED ON A FOUR LANE SUBURBAN ROAD WITH A SPEED LIMIT OF 50 MPH AND WILL HAPPEN WHEN THE TRANSMISSION GETS TO FULL TEMPERATURE. THIS VEHICLE HAD THE RECALL 15V-542 PERFORMED 08/25/15. AFTER SEVERAL TCM FAILURES ABUSING THE TRANSMISSION PRIOR TO THE RECALL, THE TRANSMISSION NOW NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE SHIFTING TO NEUTRAL ISSUE FIRST HAPPENED JULY OF 2014.

MY BRAKE CALIPERS ARE LOOSE ON THE VEHICLE SO MUCH THAT YOU CAN SHAKE THEM WITH YOUR BARE HANDS AND AS YOU DRIVE DOWN THE ROAD YOU HEAR A NOISE THAT SOUNDS LIKE A CLICKING SOUND I WOULD LIKE THIS TO B LOOKED AT AS A POSSIBLE RECALL IF OTHERS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. IM WORRY THAT IT COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AND MY SON OR I COULD GET HURT OR HURT SOMEONE ELSE. YOU CAN HEAR THIS NOISE AS YOU ARE DRIVING ESPECIALLY WHEN U HOT A SMALL BUMP ON MY PRIVATE ROAD I LIVE ON.

MY CAR HAS BEEN AT DEWEY SINCE JULY 23RD FOR A SERVICE TRANSMISSION LIGHT. WHEN I DROPPED MY CAR OFF, IT WAS PLUGGED INTO THE COMPUTER AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE CODE THAT POPPED UP WAS FOR A RECALL ON A TRANSMISSION MODULE AND ONCE THE SERVICE TECH LOOKED AT IT, I WOULD RECEIVE A CALL REGARDING ANY COSTS AND TIME OF REPAIR. AS I WAS LEAVING ON VACATION FOR THE WEEK, I WAS NOT TOO CONCERNED. SATURDAY 7/25 - I RECEIVED A CALL THAT A PART WAS ON ORDER AND THE CAR SHOULD BE READY MONDAY OR TUESDAY. AGAIN, AS I WAS ON VACATION, I SAID THAT WOULD BE JUST FINE. I STARTED CALLING AND TEXTING MY SERVICE ADVISOR, TRENT, THURSDAY (7/30) MORNING. I DID NOT HEAR ANYTHING FROM HIM UNTIL SATURDAY (8/1). HE STATED HE FORGOT TO CALL ME BUT THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH MY CAR. HE SAID THE MODULE WAS REPLACED AND WHEN THEY WENT TO START THE CAR, THERE WAS NO POWER. THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IS FRIED. HE SAID THAT THE LEAD TECH WOULD LOOK AT IT MONDAY AND WE WOULD GO FROM THERE. TUESDAY 8/4 - I RECEIVED A CALL FROM TRENT THAT THE LEAD TECH NEEDED TO REACH OUT TO CHRYSLER FOR ASSISTANCE. FRIDAY 8/7 - RECEIVED A CALL THAT CHRYSLER WAS SENDING ANOTHER MODULE AND IT SHOULD BE THERE MONDAY. MONDAY 8/8 - WE HAD THE STORM AND I DIDN'T HEAR ANYTHING WHICH IS UNDERSTANDABLE. THURSDAY 8/6 - RECEIVED A CALL THAT THE MODULE DID NOT WORK. CHRYSLER DECIDED TO SEND A WHOLE NEW TRANSMISSION. IT WILL BE HERE MONDAY OR TUESDAY AND WILL KNOW MORE BY END OF THE WEEK. MONDAY 8/10 - EMAIL SENT TO GM AT DEWEY EXPRESSING CONCERN. SPOKE WITH HIM REGARDING TRADING IN CAR OR ADDITIONAL WARRANTY ON MY CAR. TOLD NO ADDITIONAL WARRANTY WILL BE GIVEN. TRANSFER TO SALES. THURSDAY 8/13 - TOLD MY CAR WOULD BE READY EARLY NEXT WEEK. WEDNESDAY 8/17 - CALLED SERVICE AGAIN. WERE TOLD NOT SURE THAT THE NEW TRANSMISSION EVEN ARRIVED. WILL CALL BACK. DRIVE THROUGH THE DEALERSHIP AND MY CAR IS JUST SITTING OUTSIDE IN THE LOT.

SERVICE BRAKES
THE REAR BRAKE CALIPER / PARKING BRAKE IS CORRODING TO THE POINT OF INOPERABILITY. WE HAVE ALREADY HAD CHRYSLER REPLACE THE REAR CALIPER THAT WAS AFFECTED THE FIRST TIME, BUT IT IS NOW AGAIN STICKING DUE TO CORROSION AND RUST. THERE IS NO PROTECTION TO PREVENT SALT AND ROAD DEBRIS FROM ENTERING THE BORE OF THE SHAFT THAT ENGAGES THE PARKING BRAKE MECHANISM IN THE CALIPER. THE CAR'S PARKING BRAKE LEVER WILL ENGAGE BUT THE PARKING BRAKE WILL ACTIVATE. THE CAR WILL CONTINUE TO ROLL BACK (MANUAL TRANSMISSION). OTHER TIMES, THE PARKING BRAKE WILL BE ACTIVATED BY THE LEVER, ENGAGE AND WILL STICK ON, AND CAUSE THE REAR BRAKES TO OVERHEAT WHEN I DRIVE AWAY.
