Consumer Description

PULLED ONTO LEMAY FERRY ROAD FROM FORDER ROAD (63129) AT THE LIGHT. AS SOON AS I GOT ONTO LEMAY FERRY RD. GOING SLOW IN TRAFFIC, THE ENGINE CUT OUT AND DIED SUDDENLY WITH NO WARNING. I HAD NO EXTRA KEYS ON WITH THE KEYFOB AND NOTHING BUMPED THE IGNITION. THERE WAS NOT A BUMP IN THE ROAD. THIS HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES SINCE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE NEW IN 2009 AND HAS BEEN REPORTED REPEATEDLY TO CHRYSLER SINCE THAT TIME. ALTHOUGH THERE IS NOW A RECALL, THE PARTS ARE APPARENTLY UNAVAILABLE AND I HAVE BEEN ON THE LIST FOR REPAIR WITH THE DEALER SINCE THE RECALL WAS ANNOUNCED. THIS IS A RIDICULOUS WAY TO HANDLE THE SAFETY OF THE PUBLIC. OBVIOUSLY, CHRYSLER IS NOT THAT CONCERNED ABOUT US. IT ALSO HAPPENED AT HIGHWAY SPEED IN THE DARK LAST FALL WHEN I ACCIDENTALLY DID BUMP THE FOB WHILE SCRATCHING A MOSQUITO BITE ON MY KNEE. RIDICULOUS!!!! DANGEROUS!! LAWSUITS!!! *TR
