Consumer Description

THIS IS MY SECOND SUBMITTED COMPLAINT ABOUT THE TAILGATE COMING OPEN WHILE DRIVING AND TOWING. HAVE MADE TWO COMPLAINTS TO CHRYSLER AND TAKEN TO DEALER. HOWEVER, NOTHING IS BEING DONE BECAUSE THEY DRIVE IT 10 MILES AND "CAN NOT REPLICATE". EVEN THOUGH THEY ACKNOWLEDGE EXTENSIVE RECALL HISTORY ON EARLIER MODELS FOR SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE NOW DAMAGED MY TRUCK WITH 5K MILES ON IT AND MY CAMPER WHEN IT CAME OPEN IN TOW.
