Consumer Description

MY CAR DISPLAYED A MESSAGE BATTERY SAVE MODE, I WAS RIDING ON THE TURNPIKE WHICH I HAD TO HURRY AND PULL OVER BECAUSE THE RADIOS DOWN, THEN THE AIR CONDITIONER, THEN THE DASH BOARD LIGHTS START APPEARING, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS CAME ON, THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME NO EASY TO TURN AS IF IT WAS LOCKING. I PLACED THE CAR IN PARK THE ENTIRE CAR SHUT OFF, KEY WASN'T ABLE TO BE DETECTED NOTHING. HAD THE CAR TOWED TO MY MECHANIC SHOP HE EXPLAINED ALTERNATOR AND THAT HE WOULD ALSO CHECK THE VOLTAGE ON THE BATTERY. WHEN HE WENT TO CHECK THE BATTERY IT WAS EXTREMELY HOT WHICH HE WAS SURPRISE IT HADN'T CATCHES FIRE. OBVIOUSLY I CALLED TO SEE IF THEIR WERE ANY RECALLS RELATED TO MY VIN AND THEY SAID NO, CRAZY PART IS I'M REVIEWING ALL THE SAME PROBLEMS ON THIS SITE AND DODGE DOESN'T THINK THIS IS A RECALL ISSUE THAT'S CRAZY TO ME. *TR
