CHRYSLER Complaints

2011 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE TIPM. ENGINE WONT START. HAVE SEEN NOTHING BUT COMPLAINTS ONLINE.SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. *TR

MY 2006 CHRYSLER 300 C WOULD JUST DIE AFTER FILING UP WITH GAS - HAPPENED ON THE FREEWAY A FEW TIMES- VERY DANGEROUS. THE DEALER COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM UNTIL WE SAW LA TIMES ARTICLE 5/14/13 - THEY ARE FIXING BUT CHRYSLER IS NOT HELPING WITH $$ (REPLACING GAS TANK) CAR HAS ONLY 42K MILES. *TR

2009 JEEP WRANGLER X 2 DOOR MANUAL TRANSMISSION TRANSMISSION FIRST GEAR POPS OUT OF GEAR DURING ACCELERATION. SHIFT TO FIRST, LET OFF OF CLUTCH WITH OR WITHOUT THROTTLE APPLIED AND THE TRANSMISSION WILL KICK OUT OF FIRST GEAR, LEAVING THE VEHICLE AND OCCUPANTS IN NEUTRAL IN AN INTERSECTION, OR ON TRAIN TRACKS FROM A STOP, FORCING QUICK CLUTCH PEDAL APPLICATION AND SHIFTING INTO FIRST AGAIN, WITH THE PROBLEM MOST OFTEN RECURRING. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN. THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN IN 3RD OF 5TH GEAR. DEALER DID A DIAGNOSIS PAID FOR BY OWNER, AND DETERMINED IT WAS THE 1/2 GEAR AND SYNCHRO GEARS. CHRYSLER HAS A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN THAT I WAS INELIGIBLE. VEHICLE HAD 20K MILES WHEN PURCHASED, 25000 WHEN DIAGNOSED, NOW AT 46,000 MILES, WITH AN EVEN MORE OFTEN OCCURRENCE. *TR

I BOUGHT A NEW 2007 JEEP WRANGLER DEATH WOBBLE STARTED AT 70,000 MILES MARK MITSUBISHI IN PHOENIX AZ HAS NOT HELPED ME OUT AT ALL IT GOES EVERY 10,000 MILES ON ME AND THEY JUST REPLACED MY TIRES. DEATH WOBBLE OCCURRED THE DAY AFTER AND BEFORE. HOW DO WE ALL GET TOGETHER WHO HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND GET JEEP TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR A DEFECTIVE FRONT END. DEATH WOBBLE IS NOT ONLY SCARY IT IS DANGEROUS AND I HOPE THAT IT DOESN'T TAKE SOMEONE GETTING KILLED FOR THEM TO FINALLY REPLACE IT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 DODGE RAM 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE TIRE BECAME FLAT. THE TIRE SHOP REMOVED THE TIRE AND FOUND THAT THE TIRE SENSOR NUT ALUMINUM WAS FRACTURED AND HAD BECOME SEPARATED FROM THE TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR, CAUSING THE TIRE SENSOR TO SEPARATE FROM THE TIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNAVAILABLE.

2010 JEEP WRANGLER DEATH WOBBLE. STARTED AT 20K MILES. JEEP WOBBLES AT SPEEDS ABOVE 45. WOBBLES SO BAD YOU HAVE TO STOP ON A FREEWAY AND HOLD ON TIGHT TO THE STEERING WHEEL. VERY DANGEROUS. DEALER TRIED TO FIX WITH STEERING DAMPER...NO FIX. THEN CHANGED SHOCKS AND TIRES. WORKED FOR 30K. CAME BACK EVEN WORSE. NOW THEY SAY THEY HAVE NO IDEA. ITS ALL OVER THE INTERNET WHY DOESN'T CHRYSLER RECALL THESE? IT IS VERY DANGEROUS. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT. WHOLE FRONT END SHAKES ESPECIALLY WHEN GOING OVER A BUMP, EVEN A SMALL BUMP. FRIGHTENING. *TR

BOUGHT A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER X FROM BROOKFIELD CHRYSLER IN BENTON HARBOR MICHIGAN IN FEBRUARY. AFTER TWO WEEKS I BROUGHT IT BACK BECAUSE OF EXTREME AND UNSAFE TIRE WEAR DUE TO A DAMAGED FRONT AXLE. THEY REPLACED THE AXLE AND FRONT TIRES. THE VERY SAME DAY IT STARTED THE INFAMOUS DEATH WOBBLE. I WOULD BE ON THE HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH (OR ANYTHING ABOVE 20), AND HIT A BUMP, AND THE FRONT END WOULD START SHAKING UNCONTROLLABLY. I COULD LOOK OUT THE WINDOW AND SEE THE TIRES MOVING BACK AND FORTH EXTREMELY. THIS RESULTED IN ME LOSING CONTROL AND RUNNING OFF THE HIGHWAY INTO A DITCH. *TR

I HAVE 2005 CROSSFIRE THAT HAS BEEN STALLING INTERMITTENTLY. WHEN IT STALLS, IT USUALLY STARTS RIGHT UP, BUT A FEW TIMES IT HAS STALLED AND WHEN I TRY TO RESTART IT THE ENGINE DOES NOT TRY TO TURN OVER. THE LIGHTS STAY ON SO THERE'S POWER, BUT WHEN I TURN THE KEY...NOTHING! IT USUALLY STARTS UP AFTER A FEW MINUTES THIS MAKES ME VERY NERVOUS THAT SOMEONE WILL CRASH INTO ME! NOW THIS HAS HAPPEN ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE! IS CHRYSLER OBLIGATED TO RECALL THIS ISSUE? HERE ARE SIMILAR COMPLAINTS: (1) I HAVE 2005 CROSSFIRE ROADSTER THAT HAS BEEN STALLING INTERMITTENTLY. WHEN IT STALLS, IT USUALLY STARTS RIGHT UP, BUT A FEW TIMES IT HAS STALLED AND WHEN I TRY TO RESTART IT THE ENGINE DOES NOT TRY TO TURN OVER. THE LIGHTS STAY ON SO THERE'S POWER, BUT WHEN I TURN THE KEY...NOTHING! IT USUALLY STARTS UP AFTER A FEW MINUTES BUT IT'S A PAIN IN THE NECK WHEN YOU'RE SITTING IN TRAFFIC! I REPLACED THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR SO THAT'S NOT IT. ANY SUGGESTIONS? HAS ANYONE HAD SIMILAR PROBLEMS? (2) I JUST BOUGHT AN AUTOMATIC '05 CROSSFIRE ROADSTER AND I HAVE EXPERIENCED MULTIPLE TIMES NOW THAT, WHEN GETTING TO A STOP, THE ENGINE WILL STALL.IT EVEN DIED THREE TIMES ALREADY.IT IS NOT REPETITIVE AND DIFFICULT TO REPRODUCE. NO ERRORS OR ENGINE CHECK LIGHT SHOW UP AND THE DEALER CANNOT REPRODUCE EITHER.IS ANYBODY EXPERIENCING THIS SAME ISSUE? WHERE YOU ABLE TO SOLVE IT? PLEASE HELP THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR HELP. *TR

I BOUGHT A USED 2007 JEEP WRANGLER 4-DOOR SAHARA IN MARCH OF 2012. ABOUT 30 DAYS AFTER THE PURCHASE (WHICH IS WHEN DEALER WARRANTY EXPIRED) THE VEHICLE'S BRAKES STARTING SQUEAKING. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WAS BECAUSE THE BRAKES WERE DIRTY. THEY "CLEANED" THE BRAKES AND SENT ME ON MY WAY. THE NEXT DAY THE BRAKES STARTED SQUEAKING AGAIN EVERY TIME I BRAKE. I TOOK IT BACK AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO BECAUSE THE BRAKES WERE BRAND NEW. AT THIS TIME, THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR ALSO STOPPED LOCKING CORRECTLY. THE WARRANTY I HAD PURCHASED FOR $2,000 DID NOT COVER ELECTRONICS! A COUPLE MONTHS GO BY AND I EXPERIENCED THE POPULAR DEATH WOBBLE AFTER GETTING AN OIL CHANGE AND TIRE ROTATION. IT TURNS OUT THE REAR TRACKBAR BRACKET WAS CRACKED AND EVENTUALLY COMPLETELY BROKE IN HALF. I BOUGHT A HEAVY DUTY ADJUSTABLE REAR TRACKBAR AND HAD A NEW BRACKET WELDED ON WHICH SEEMED TO FIX THE PROBLEM FOR A FEW DAYS. THEN THE DEATH WOBBLE STARTED AGAIN. I THEN TOOK THE JEEP TO GET THE TIRES ROTATED AND BALANCED AND THE DEATH WOBBLE STARTED AT JUST 30MPH AS WE WERE LEAVING THE SHOP. I TOOK IT BACK AND THEY WERE DUMBFOUNDED AS TO WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. SO THEY PLACED THE TIRES BACK WHERE THEY WERE WHEN I TOOK IT IN AND IT STOPPED FOR A COUPLE MORE DAYS. SINCE THEN I HAVE REPLACED THE FRONT TRACKBAR, STEERING STABILIZER, AND SHOCKS, WHICH ALL SEEMED TO HAVE PUT IT AT BAY. HOWEVER, NOW I HAVE $340-A-PIECE TIRES THAT HAVE BEEN WORN OUT AND I HAVE BEEN TOLD I CANNOT GET THE ALIGNMENT FIXED UNTIL I REPLACE THE FRONT BALL JOINTS! I PAID ABOUT $30,000 FOR THIS VEHICLE OUT OF THE DEALERSHIP AND HAVE HAD TO PUT IN AROUND $2500 IN REPAIRS AND UPGRADES DUE TO POOR CRAFTSMANSHIP OF THIS VEHICLE. ON TOP OF THAT I CANNOT EVEN DRIVE IT WITH MY FAMILY FOR FEAR OF OUR SAFETY. I HAVE SEEN MANY ONLINE FORUMS WITH PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM. THE DEALERSHIP WON'T HELP ME. THE MANUFACTURER WON'T HELP. SOMETHING MUST BE DONE BEFORE A SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH OCCURS. *TR
