Consumer Description
I PURCHASED VEHICLE 7/31/2015, ON 8/17/2015 VEHICLE BEGAN TO JERK, MISS OUT , TRY TO DIE WHEN DRIVING AND THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I TOOK INTO SHOP 8/18/2015 AND FOUND OUT THAT THE MOTOR WAS BAD AND IT WAS A FACTORY DEFAULT AND NEEDED REPLACED. MOTOR HAD 468 MILES ON IT. UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION, WE FOUND OUT THAT AN ENTIRE LINE WAS PRODUCED WHERE SOME OF THESE MOTORS WERE NOT PUT TOGETHER PROPERLY (MISSING A SEAL). TO THIS DATE, 10/7/2015 I STILL HAVE NOT SEEN ANY RECALL OR ANY MENTION OF SAID PROBLEM. MY MOTOR WAS TO BE REPLACED, I TOLD CHRYSLER I WANTED THEM TO TAKE THE CAR BACK. I HAD ONLY 2 WEEKS AND THE MAJOR PART OF VEHICLE WAS JUNK. THEY SUGGESTED A REPLACEMENT, WE TRIED THAT SOLUTION AND 4 WEEKS INTO IT, THEY HAD STILL NOT MOVED. I AM NOW ASKING THEM TO BUY BACK THE VEHICLE AND LET ME MOVE ON. I FEEL LIKE THE PUBLIC SHOULD BE AWARE OF THIS, AS THERE IS POTENTIALLY HUNDREDS OF VEHICLES OUT THERE WITH BAD MOTORS SITTING ON LOTS, DRIVEWAYS, GARAGES OR DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD JUST WAITING TO FAIL.
