-JAN 2015- THE KEY WAS LODGED IN THE IGNITION AND WOULD NOT COME OUT. I HAD IT TOWED TO NEAREST CHRY DEALER TO FIX. - JAN TO MAY- CAR INTERMITTENTLY STALLS/WON'T START. SOMETIMES STARTS WITH A JUMP. -MAY- MECHANIC/BATTERY INSTALLED $268. -JUNE/JULY- CAR INTERMITTENTLY STALLS/WON'T START. STARTS IF YOU WAIT A WHILE. -AUGUST-WON'T START/WONT JUMP/STRANDED WITH KIDS/TOWED TO MECHANIC. -CHANGED MY BATTERIES IN MY KEY FOBS AT LEAST 3 TIMES IN 2015. -I AM CONSTANTLY STRANDED WITH MY CHILDREN AND SPEND DAYS WITHOUT MY CAR WAITING FOR MECHANICS TO FIND OUT THE PROBLEM. THE CHRYSLER DEALER INFORMS ME THAT IT'S A MINIMUM OF $200 JUST TO LOOK AT IT. IT WILL MOST LIKELY BE MORE IF IT'S ELECTRICAL AND THEY NEED A DAY OR TWO. I HAVE TO GET MY KIDS TO AND FROM SCHOOL AND CAN'T PAY FOR ANOTHER CAR. MECHANIC SAID TO LOOK AT BULLETINS/INFO ON TIPM AND WIN. OTHER CHRY YEAR/MAKES HAVE HAD EXACT SAME ISSUES AND WERE RECALLED. THERE IS A CLASS ACTION SUIT FOR THIS YEAR/MAKE AND MANY MORE. HOW AM I STILL DRIVING? I WAS GIVEN A TIP BY A MECHANIC: OPEN THE HOOD AND THEN THE FUSE BOX. REMOVE THE M27 FUSE. WAIT 10 SECONDS. REPLACE FUSE. START CAR. IT'S BEEN WORKING SO FAR! APPARENTLY, THIS CLEARS A SOFTWARE LOCKUP IN THE MODULE.

THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE; HOWEVER, THE VENT WINDOW DID NOT OPEN DUE TO AN INTERIM REPAIR WHERE THE TECHNICIAN DISCONNECTED THE SWITCH.

THE TURN SIGNAL LENSES ON THE OUTSIDE MIRRORS, FALL OFF, GREATLY DIMINISHING THE BRILLIANCE OF THE TURN SIGNAL.

I HAVE BEEN WAITING SINCE MAY 2015 FOR THE REPLACEMENT PART FOR MY REAR QUARTER VENT WINDOW. I AM STILL ON A WAITING LIST AND HAVE MANY, MANY MORE PEOPLE AHEAD OF ME. WHY WOULD IT TAKE SO LONG TO GET THE NECESSARY PART TO THE DEALERSHIP? THIS RECALL IS FROM JUNE 2014! I DRIVE WITH SMALL CHILDREN IN MY VAN EVERY DAY. THEY ARE STRAPPED INTO CAR SEATS AND I CAN'T IMAGINE THE HORROR IF A FIRE BROKE OUT. PLEASE PROVIDE A RESOLUTION.

THE CAR HAD POWER, BUT WOULD NOT START. CONTINUED TO TRY, BUT WOULD NOT START. POPPED HOOD, SLAPPED TIPM, CAR STARTED.
