Consumer Description
I WAS DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY AND MY CAR DIED WITHOUT ANY WARNING. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID I HAD OIL IN THE INJECTORS. THEY CLEANED IT UP AND SENT ME ON MY WAY FOR $715. NOT EVEN A MONTH LATER I'M STILL HAVING THE SAME ISSUES AND NOW SOMETIMES IT'S NOT STARTING. SO ANOTHER REPAIR SHOP CHANGED THE BATTERY AND STARTER, AFTER THE WORK THEY RUN SOME TESTS AND SAY THAT I HAVE A BAD TIPM TO BRING IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. I BRING IT BACK TO THEM AND THEY WANT AROUND $1800 NOW FOR THIS REPAIR. I CALLED CHRYSLER AND SPOKE WITH THEM ABOUT THIS AND THEY REFUSED TO HELP IN ANY WAY WITH THIS SITUATION EVEN THOUGH WE ARE LOYAL DODGE FAMILY CUSTOMERS(ON OUR 5TH VEHICLE). THE REVIEWS ONLINE SHOW MANY PEOPLE HAVING THIS ISSUE AND IT IS A VERY DANGEROUS AND SCARY EXPERIENCE HAVING YOUR CAR DIE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE EXPRESSWAY WITH NO POWER STEERING. I DEFINITELY THINK THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR THIS PART TO SAVE THE LIVES OF OTHERS ON THE ROADWAYS. THANKS IN ADVANCE
