"TAKATA RECALL" I WAS NOTIFIED OF THE RECALL WHEN IT WAS MADE AVAILABLE TO ME BY FCA US LLC I CONTACTED A DEALER IN CLAREMORE OKLA AND THE RECALL HAS YET TO BE REPAIRED. I HAVE CHILDREN AND WOULD LIKE THIS COMPLETED BEFORE POSSIBLE INJURY OCCURS.
ARRIVED HOME AFTER SHOPPING WITH GRANDDAUGHTER WAS UNLOADING CAR WHEN SHE MOVED SEAT FORWARD AND YELLED SMOKE. I RACED TO PASSENGER FRONT AND SEEN A TRICKLE OF SMOKE LOOKED UNDER THE SEAT AND OBSERVED A FLAME COMING FROM THE ? HEATED SEAT CONTROL MODULE? LUCKILY I WAS HOME EXSTIGUISHED THE FLAME DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY. THEN PROCEEDED TO TAKE PART OFF. BURNED THE CONNECTOR, THE WIRES, AND THE MODULE. CAR WAS PARKED AND THE KEYS WAS IN MY POCKET. NO POWER SHOULD OF BEEN GOING IN THE UNIT.
THE FUEL PUMP IS LOCATED DIRECTLY UNDER THE PASSENGER SIDE BACK SEAT. IT HAS A LEAK, AND MY CAR HAS BEEN SMEELING LIKE GAS FOR A MONTH NOW WITHOUT MY KNOWLEDGE. I FINALLY TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND THERE WAS A PODDLE OF GAS UNDER THE SEAT WHERE THE NIPPLE ON THE FUEL PUMP BROKE. NOT TO MENTION MY BATTERY IN THE TRUNK , WELL THE WIRES CROSS RIGHT OVER THE FUEL PUMP. THIS IS NOT SAFE AT ALL. THESE ITEMS SHOULD BE NOWHERE NEAR EACH OTHER.
