Consumer Description

I STARTED TO HAVE TROUBLE WITH THE TRUCK AS IT WOULD NOT START IN THE MORNINGS WHEN I WAS TRYING TO GO TO WORK. I REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP AND IT DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. SHORTLY AFTER THAT, MY BATTERY WOULD BE DEAD MOST MORNINGS. I REPLACED THE BATTERY, BUT STILL THE PROBLEMS CONTINUED. THE TRUCK STARTED TO LOSE POWER WHILE I WAS DRIVING SO I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC. HE TOLD ME THAT THE TIPM WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I HAD TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED IT FROM TO HAVE IT FIXED. I HAVE DRIVEN THE TRUCK LESS THAT 7000 MILES SINCE I PURCHASED IT. AFTER SPEAKING WITH FCA, THEY SAY THAT THEY WON'T DO ANYTHING TO HELP OUT BECAUSE THE TRUCK IS OUT OF WARRANTY. I WANT TO KNOW WHY A RECALL WAS NEVER PUT IN PLACE AND ENACTED BECAUSE I HAVE SEEN THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS FROM PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY I'M HAVING TO PAY $1794.03 OUT OF POCKET FOR THE FAULTS OF THE MANUFACTURER PF THE VEHICLE.
