Consumer Description

WHILE OPERATING NORMALLY, APPROXIMATELY 35-65 MPH BOTH HIGHWAY AND COUNTY ROADS, ON THE WAY TO WORK, THE SERVICE ABS & STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM WARNING LIGHTS CAME IN, STEERING AND BRAKING WERE AFFECTED. BRAKE SYSTEM STARTED PULSING AND STEERING SYSTEM VIBRATED. 20 SECONDS LATER, WENT AWAY. ON THE WAY HOME, IT REPEATED THIS 4X WITHIN 35 MILES OF TRAVEL. WENT TO DEALERSHIP THE NEXT DAY FOR ISSUE. THEY CLAIMED IT TO BE A FAULTY WHEEL SPEED SENSOR. REPLACED SENSOR. 49,575 MILES AT TIME OF SERVICE. A $42 PART ENDED UP COSTING $310 TO GET FIXED. THIS IS A DANGEROUS THING TO HAPPEN TO FAIRLY NEW CAR. CAR HAS NEVER SEEN SNOW OR SALT. GARAGE KEPT IN WINTER MONTHS. THIS AFFECTED THE BRAKING AND STEERING SYSTEMS. 2 OF THE MOST IMPORTANT SYSTEMS ON A VEHICLE IN ORDER TO OPERATE SAFELY ON THE ROAD. I AM THE 3RD PERSON I KNOW OF WHO'S HAD THIS SAME ISSUE WITH THE SAME YEAR DODGE. THIS SHOULD BE A FACTORY RECALL ON ALL THE SENSORS FOR THESE SYSTEMS TO BE REPLACED.
