Consumer Description
THIS IS ABOUT THE IGNITION KEY. AN EXTRA KEY COSTS $200, THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE IF SOMEBODY LOSES THEIR KEY AND WAS NOT ABLE TO AFFORD A SPARE. IT IS EXTORTION BY DODGE. ALSO-- TO CHECK THE TRANSMISSION FLUID? MAKE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE DEALER AND PAY $25 MINIMUM. NEITHER MY MECHANIC NOR THE QUICK OIL CHANGE PLACE CAN CHECK IT-- THERE IS NO DIPSTICK, THERE IS A SPECIAL TOOL AND WHERE THE DIPSTICK WOULD BE IT SAYS "DEALER ONLY" AND THAT IS TRUE. MORE EXTORTION. IT IS NOT RIGHT AND NEEDS TO BE STOPPED. "A" PILLARS ARE EXTREMELY THICK-- DI TO THE STYLING, OVERALL VISIBILITY IS SEVERELY COMPROMISED IN THIS VEHICLE. THEY SHOULD ALL BE RECALLED. TRANS AND 4WD ARE JERKY AND GROWL AND HOWL. DEALER: "THEY'RE ALL LIKE THAT". THESE ARE ALSO VERY MUCH SAFETY ISSUES. THANK YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
