Consumer Description
WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT MY CAR BEGAN TO SMOKE FROM THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE HOOD, MY AIR CONDITION, RADIO AND WINDOWS STOP WORKING AND MY BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON AND THEN A MESSAGE CAME ON SAYING BATTERY SAVER MODE. IT IS SO UNFAIR TO CONSUMERS THAT BUY THESE CARS, TRUSTING THAT WE HAVE NOT BOUGHT A LEMON. IN MY OPINION ANYTHING THAT DODGE SELLS IS A LEMON EVEN IT IS BOUGHT NEW. AND I THINK IT IS OUTRAGEOUS THAT AND ALTERNATOR IS 500 DOLLARS, FOR WHAT TO PUT ANOTHER PIECE OF JUNK IN THE CAR. MY CAR IS ONLY 2 1/2 YEARS OLD AND IT IS OBSURD TO HAVE TO REPLACE AN ALTERNATOR THIS SOON. THE WHOLE CAR NEEDS TO BE RECALLED!!!!! DODGE CAN NOT EVEN GIVE ME A CAR!!!! YOU CAN BELIEVE THOUGH JUST AS SOON AS I GET IT RUNNING I AM TURNING IT IN TO WHOMEVER WANTS IT!!!!! AND WHOMEVER CONTROLS THE CAR MAKERS SHOULD NOT ALLOW DODGE TO MAKE EVEN A BICYCLE!!!!!! *JS
