2012 DODGE DURANGO Complaints

TO DATE I HAVE NOT RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER FROM FIAT CHRYSLER AMERICA (FCA) RE; THE ALTERNATOR ASSEMBLY MUST BE REPLACED AND THE TIPM CONTAINS AN INTERNAL FUEL PUMP RELAY THAT CAN FAIL. IN OCT 2014 I WAS VERBALLY INFORMED BY LUSTINE DODGE IN WOODBRIDGE VA ABOUT THESE RECALLS, BUT TOLD THAT THEY HAD NO REMDY OR PARTS TO FIX THE ISSUE. FOLLOWING THE NEWS REPORT IT APPEARS THAT FCA IS DRAGGING THEIR FEET TO FIX THE ISSUE AND PUTTING DRIVERS OF THE THE VEHICLES IN QUESTION IN DANGER.

FUEL PUMP RELAY INTERMITTENTLY INOPERATIONAL. MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WILL NOT ADDRESS ISSUE ON KNOWN RECALL WITHOUT BEING ABLE TO "REPLICATE" ISSUE AT SHOP. THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT FAILURE SO REPLICATING IF IS A ROLL OF THE DICE THAT COULD COST ME HUNDREDS BEFORE AN ACTUAL REPLICATION HAPPENS. THIS IS ABSURD AND CHRYSLER NEEDS TO MAKE RIGHT ON THIS ISSUE.

SEVERAL TIMES WHILE DRIVING, THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE LIGHT COMES ON ALONG WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND IMMEDIATELY BEGINS TO JERK WHILE ON THE FREEWAY/SURFACE STREETS.
