Consumer Description

MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN CONSTANTLY STALLING OUT WHILE IN MOTION AND IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. MY VEHICLE ALSO PICKS UP SPEED RANDOMLY WITHOUT EXCELLING THE GAS PEDAL. I HAVE A FAMILY OF FIVE AND DUE TO THIS ISSUE WE ARE HAVING TO BORROW OTHER VEHICLES. ITS SAD THAT DODGE HAS NOT DONE ANYTHING ABOUT THIS ISSUE AS I SEE 100'S OF PEOPLE HAVE BEEN MAKING THE SAME ONLINE REPORTS. I HAVE ONE YEAR LEFT ON THIS VEHICLE AND WAS SO HAPPY UNTIL THIS ISSUE AROSE. I DO NOT WANT TO START OVER WITH A VEHICLE & DUE TO SO MANY COMPLAINTS I FEEL LIKE DODGE SHOULD AT LEAST WAIVE DOWN PAYMENT DEPOSITS TO GET THESE VEHICLES OFF THE ROAD BEFORE A HUGE LAWSUIT IS DONE AGAINST THEM.
