MY ENGINE STARTED TO MAKE STRANGE SOUNDS WHEN PULLING INTO A PARKING LOT. WHEN I CAME BACK OUT, THERE WAS SMOKE COMING OUT FROM UNDER THE HOOD. I QUICKLY DROVE IT TO ANOTHER PARKING LOT WHERE THE ENGINE JUST QUIT WORKING ALL TOGETHER. THERE WAS NO POWER IN THE SYSTEM. I HAD TO GET A TOW TRUCK TAKE IT TO A AUTOMOTIVE GARAGE WHERE THEY REPLACED THE ALTERNATOR AND THE BATTERY, WHICH WAS FAIRLY NEW, WITH A NEW ONE BECAUSE IT WOULDN'T HOLD A CHARGE. . I'M GLAD I WASN'T DRIVING THE CAR WHEN IT QUIT. THE TOTAL BILL WAS A LITTLE OVER $850 FOR THE TOW, ALTERNATOR, BATTERY AND LABOR. IS THIS COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY?

CAR LOST ALL POWER WHILE DRIVING. STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION.EVERYTHING WAS LOCKED UP. STRANDED FOR 2 HOURS WAITING FOR AAA. I KNOW THERE IS A RECALL ON THE ALTERNATOR. WE TOOK THE CAR TO OLIVER C JOSEPH CHRYSLER IN BELLEVILLE, IL. THEY SAY - THEY DON'T HAVE THE PARTS. THEY CAN ORDER THE PARTSBUT WE WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR AND WAIT TO GET REIMBURSED BY CHRYSLER. AT LEAST $850 IN REPAIRS. I CAN'T PAY $850! WHY SHOULD I HAVE TO IF THIS IS A RECALL. THE DEALER CONFIRMS THIS WAS AN ALTERNATOR FIRE. I NEED CHRYSLER TO FIX MY CAR.

ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL WORKS PART OF THE TIME AND WILL NOT WORK PART OF THE TIME. THE FIRST FEW TIMES IT HAPPENED, IT WOULD START WORKING AFTER I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF AND RESTARTED IT. LATELY IT WILL BE OFF FOR SEVERAL DAYS AND THEN WORK A FEW DAYS BEFORE GOING OFF AGAIN. AFTER CHECKING THE INTERNET FOR SOLUTIONS, I FOUND NONE BUT FOUND LITERALLY HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE THAT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM BECAUSE IT CAUSES UNINTENTIONAL SPEEDING. IN ADDITION, THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PREVENTS THE CAR FROM GETTING TOO CLOSE TO THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF YOU. AFTER GETTING USED TO THIS FEATURE, I FIND MYSELF GETTING TOO CLOSE TO OTHER CARS WHEN THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL IS NOT WORKING. THIS IS THE SITUATION WHEN THE VEHICLE IS MOVING.

RECEIVED LETTER ABOUT A RECALL A MONTH OR SO AGO AND SO FAR HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING. GETTING WORRIED I DO A LOT OF DRIVING AND WANT TO MAKE SURE I AM SAFE.
