TAKATA RECALL, I WAS CONTACTED AS TO THE REPAIR OF MY VEHICLE. I WAS INFORMED THAT I NEED TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN FOR THE REPAIR EITHER LATE IN THE EVENING AND IT WOULD BE RETURNED THE NEXT DAY. WHEN ASKED WHAT ACCOMMODATION WOULD I RECEIVE WILL THEY HAD CAR FOR REPAIRS I WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WOULD BE NONE. I CANT UNDERSTAND HOW AFTER WAITING ALSO A YEAR TO HAVE CAR REPAIRED I NOW HAVE TO BE INCONVENIENCED TO HAVE MY CAR REPAIRED FOR SOMETHING THAT COULD LEAD TO BODILY HARM EVEN DEATH. I CAN NOT UNDERSTAND HOW I AM SUPPOSE TO GET MY VEHICLE REPAIRED IF I DO NOT HAVE AWAY TO DROP IT OFF OR PICK IT UP. THIS IS UNFAIR AND TRULY WRONG.. THIS IS NOT MY RESPONSIBILITY THIS IS THEIRS AND THEY SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR ALL COST

EVERY TIME I FILL GAS THE ENGINE STALLS REPEATEDLY FOR ABOUT A MINUTE OR LONGER. BECOMES DANGEROUS WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE OUT OF AN INTERSECTION AND IT STALLS.

WHEN I FILL MY GAS TANK WITH FUEL THE MOTOR STALLS AND GOES DEAD CONTINUOUSLY FOR ABOUT 15 MILES THEN IT GETS BETTER BUT IT WILL DIE SOMETIMES AS MANY AS 5 OR 6 TIMES.

VEHICLE BEGAN TO JUST SHUT OFF WHEN NOT IN MOTION. TOOK THE CAR TO AUTO SHOP TO BE REPAIRED. AFTER SPENDING MORE MONEY THAN EXPECTED TO FIX WHAT THE MECHANIC THOUGHT WAS THE PROBLEM, WE STILL WERE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. FINALLY, WTE RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE ON THE GAS TANK. AFTER WAITING MONTHS FOR CHRYSLER TO SEND THE DEALERSHIP A GAS TANK FOR OUR CAR, WE FINALLY BROUGHT THE VEHICLE IN TO BE REPAIRED. CHANGED OUT THE GAS TANK , DEALERSHIP KEPT THE CAR A FEW DAYS TO TEST IT OUT, CALLED US TO PICK UP THE CAR. ON THE WAY HOME, THE VEHICLE KEPT KILLING. TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY THEY KEPT THE CAR FOR ALMOST TWO MONTHS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM, BUT THEY WERE UNSUCCESSFUL IN DIAGNOSING THE PROBLEM. AS OF TODAY THE CAR IS STILL SHUMTTING OFF AND NOBODY CAN FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM. THE CAR ONLY HAS 45000 MILES.

TO START THIS COMPLAINT I WANTED TO FIRST SAY THAT MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED (NOT IN MOTION) WHEN THIS SAFETY ISSUE TOOK PLACE. THE ISSUE IN QUESTION IS IN REGARDS TO RECALL K39. THE TRANSMISSION GEAR SHIFT LEVER INTERLOCK RETURN SPRING HOOK ON MY VEHICLE BROKE. THIS BROKEN INTERLOCK RETURN SPRING HOOK RESULTED IN THE INABILITY TO MOVE THE GEAR SHIFT LEVER OUT OF THE 'PARK' POSITION. THIS IN TURN LEFT ME STRANDED. SUBSEQUENTLY I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO BE SERVICED AT THE DEALERSHIP AND SUBMITTED THE RESULTING REIMBURSEMENT PAPERWORK TO CHRYSLER. SADLY, THE REIMBURSEMENT WAS DENIED B/C CHRYSLER HAS NOT INCLUDED MY VIN IN THE K39 RECALL...DESPITE ITS OBVIOUS INCLUSION. *JS
