TAKATA RECALL, DEAR SIRS, THIS IS A RECORD OF THE DODGE DEALERSHIP, HUNTER DODGE OF LANCASTER, CA DELAYING THE REPAIR OF THIS AIRBAG ISSUE. I HAVE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP IN JUNE OF 2015 AND OCTOBER OF 2015. THE RESPONSE FROM THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAS BEEN THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT IN AND THAT WE ARE ON A "WAITING LIST". THE DEALERSHIP ALSO INDICATED THAT NOTHING CAN BE DONE AT THE PRESENT TIME. I AM VERY CONCERNED REGARDING THE DELAY IN CORRECTING THIS ISSUE, AND AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. WHEN DODGE SAYS THINGS ARE GOING WELL WITH THIS ISSUES, IT IS NOT.

POWER TRAIN
TO START THIS COMPLAINT I WANTED TO FIRST SAY THAT MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED (NOT IN MOTION) WHEN THIS SAFETY ISSUE TOOK PLACE. THE ISSUE IN QUESTION IS IN REGARDS TO RECALL K39. THE TRANSMISSION GEAR SHIFT LEVER INTERLOCK RETURN SPRING HOOK ON MY VEHICLE BROKE. THIS BROKEN INTERLOCK RETURN SPRING HOOK RESULTED IN THE INABILITY TO MOVE THE GEAR SHIFT LEVER OUT OF THE 'PARK' POSITION. THIS IN TURN LEFT ME STRANDED. SUBSEQUENTLY I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO BE SERVICED AT THE DEALERSHIP AND SUBMITTED THE RESULTING REIMBURSEMENT PAPERWORK TO CHRYSLER. SADLY, THE REIMBURSEMENT WAS DENIED B/C CHRYSLER HAS NOT INCLUDED MY VIN IN THE K39 RECALL...DESPITE ITS OBVIOUS INCLUSION. *JS

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
ENGINE STALLS AND CUTS OUT WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR SINCE NEW AND IT HAS HAD THIS ISSUE SINCE THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. BASICALLY WHEN YOU FILL THE CAR UP IT WILL STALL UNTIL YOU GET THE GAS LEVEL DOWN TO A CERTAIN POINT. FOR YEARS I HAVE BEEN FILLING THE CAR TO 3/4 TANK TO AVOID THE ISSUE. THIS HAS NOW HAPPENED AGAIN ON THE WAY BACK FROM FLORIDA WITH MY SON DRIVING. HE FILLING THE CAR UP TO THE POINT WHERE THE PUMP CLICKS OFF. I THINK DRIVING A CAR ON THE FREEWAY AT 70 MILES AN HOUR WITH THIS STALLING IS A BIG ISSUE.
