NHTSA Complaint #10320543 — 2008 JEEP WRANGLER

THE COMPLAINT IS HOW CHRYSLER CORP. IS ADDRESSING THE J30 RECALL. TRANSMISSION OVERHEATING CAUSING ENGINE FIRES. I OWN A 2008 WRANGLER THAT COST 50K. FOR THE J30 RECALL FIX THEY ARE ADDING A HOT OIL ICON ON THE DASH AND FLASH THE COMPUTER TO RECOGNIZE A SENSOR. THE ENGINE CAN STILL CATCH FIRE. SOMEONE NEEDS TO FORCE CHRYSLER TO ADD A NEW TRANSMISSION COOLER TO COOL THE FLUID, AND PREVENT THE OIL FROM BOILING. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER ENGINE FIRES CAN HAPPEN IN CITY TRAFFIC STARTING AND STOPPING. THEY ALSO INFORMED ME THAT THEY COULD SELL ME ONE AT $500 WITH TWO HOURS OF LABOR AT $110 PER HR. IF THIS IS A RECALL, DUE TO FAULTY ENGINEERING, THEN WHY DOES THE CUSTOMER HAVE TO PAY TO FIX THE RECALL ??? I AM WRITING THIS BEFORE THERE IS PROPERTY AND OR PERSONAL DAMAGE. HOPEFULLY, SOMEONE IN NHTSA CAN HELP WITH THE WAY CHRYSLER IS HANDLING THIS PARTICULAR RECALL. *TR
