2008 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN Complaints

MY VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER WHILE DRIVING. NO POWER STEERING, NO POWER BRAKES. IT HAS DONE THIS FOUR TIMES! FEB 2013, JUNE 2013, JULY 2014, AND FEB 2015. I RECIVED RECALL R03/NHTSA 14V-373 AND L25 / NHTSA 14V-373 AND CONTACTED KINGS CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE (DEALER FROM WHOM I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE) IN FEBRUARY 2015 AND THEY ARE REPORTING THEY STILL DO NOT HAVE A REPLACEMENT PART AS OF JULY 16, 2015. THEY TOLD ME I AM ONE OF 200 AND OFFERED NO TIMEFRAME FOR THE REPAIR. I WILL NOT DRIVE THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE I AM AFRAID IT WILL FAIL AND RESULT IN A CATASTROPHIC WRECK WHERE OTHERS, MY PASSENGERS OR I MAY BE KILLED!

I OWN A 2008 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN IN THE PAST 5 OR 6 MONTS I BEING EXPERINCE PROBLEMS WHIT THE VAN. WITHOUT WARNING THE VEHICLE SHOT OFF ON ME, IS BEING HAPPEN MORE AND MORE EVERY DAY. SOME DAY IS ONLY ONES SOME OTHERS SEVERAL TIMES. I GOT A SAFERTY RECALL IN MY VEHICLE I CALL THE DILLER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THE COMPANY (CHRYSLER) DON'T HAVE THE PARTS JET. IN OCTOBER 2014 THE VEHICLE SHOT OF ON ME, TO AVOID CRASING INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE I TRY TO STEERE TO THE LEFT, " A VERY DIFFICULT TO DO SENSE THE VEHICLE HAS NO BRAKES OR ANYTING FUNTIONAL" I END IT CRASHING INTO THE GARD RAIL. I WASENT INJURED TAHKS GOD MY KID WERE NOT IN THE VEHICLE. I CONTACT CRHYSLER DEVERAL TIMES AND WAS VERY DIFFICULT FOR THEM TO FOLLW UP WHIT ME. THEY SEND AN ENGINEER TO SEE MY VEHICLE WHOM SAYD THAT IT WAS NOTHIN WRONG WHIT THE VIHICLE. I HAVE TO PAY $500 DOLLAR DEDUCTIBLE AND $1200 IN CAR RENTAL. IN MAY 2015 I HAD ANOTHER LETTER FROM THE COMPANY SAYING THAT I HAVE NOT FIX THE REECALL PROBLEM AND I HAVE TO CALL TO MAKE AN APPOINMETN FOR MY VEHICKLE TO GET TEH REECALL FIX. I GOT THE VEHICLE TO GET TEH NEW PARTS THE CHANGE TE IGNITION AND HE FOB KEY. IT TOOK A WEEK FOR THEM TO GET TE VEHICLE READY ONLY FOR ME TO GET IT BACK TO THEM BECAUSE THE VEHICLE IS DOING THE SAME, THEY SAID THE FOB KYE WAS NOT ACTIVATED. I GOT THE VEHICLE BACK AND IS KEEP SHOTING OFF ON ME WILE I'M DRIVING. THE INSURANCE COMPANY SEND ME A LETTER SAYING TAHT THEY ARE TALKING TO CHRYSLER TO GET THE MONYE THEY PAY TO FIX THE DAMAGES, THEY TOLD ME NOT TO GET INTO ANY AGREETMENS WHIE MY LOWYER "IF I HAVE ONE" SO WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL OF THIS?. HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE TO DIE BEFORE CHRYSLER DO ANYTHING TO FIX THE PROBLEM? WHY NO LOWYERS WANTED TO TAKED MY CASE? THIS IS REDICULOS.
