NHTSA Complaint #11433735 — 2013 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE

2013 Grand Cherokee: Driving on highway, battery indicator came up on dashboard, all dashboard lights started flashing, windshield wipers turned on, and the car abruptly stalled in the middle of the highway. Inside hood, alternator smoking as if it was going to ignite. Alternator, battery, wire harness, fuse box, computer: all fried. Expensive repair. Problems line up with exactly this existing recall NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID: 17V435000 "If the alternator fails, the vehicle may stall without warning, increasing the risk of a crash. There is also the possibility that the alternator may short circuit, increasing the risk of a fire." Jeep/Chrysler already fixed this recall on this specific car in 2018. According to dealership the warranty for repair is 2 years. Jeep is allegedly "fixing" these cars resulting in the recall consequence to happen regardless. Looking into this issue online it seems I am not the only person to experience this. Jeep/Chrysler needs to open the recall back up as there are unsafe cars on the road unbeknownst to drivers. In addition to this there is an existing recall-NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID: 19V813000- fuel pump relay, which can result in the car suddenly stalling and causing an accident. I have been trying for two years to get this repaired by various Jeep dealerships. They claim there is a limited amount of parts. I have been informed numerous times that if the car stalls as a result of that recall they will reimburse the repair, which indicates there isn't a shortage on the part. Jeep is dragging their feet leaving unsafe cars on the road.
