I HAVE OWNED THE CAR SINCE 2012 AND HAVE NO MAJOR ISSUES UNTIL NOW. MY REAR B.C. ACK PASSENGERS WINDOW MALFUNCTIONED OUT OF NOWHERE AND I TREAT MY TRUCK WITH THE MOST CAR. I MAINTAIN IT, SERVICE IT, GARAGE KEPT, AND IT ONLY HAS 90000 MILES AS OF LAST YEAR WHEN I WAS FORCED TO DRIVE IT.

THE DRIVER SIDE BREAK LIGHT AND REVERSE LIGHT HAS HAD TO BE REPLACED TOO FREQUENTLY. NOW THE GEAR SHIFT - DIAG CODE U0103 SEEMS TO CAUSE THE LOSS OF COMMUNICATION OF THE GEAR POSITION. THAT ONLY ALLOWS THE VEHICLE TO ONLY TRAVEL ABOUT 20MPH AND APPROX 3000 RPM , WHICH CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS IF THERE IS A UNEXPECTED SLOW DOWN ON THE HIGHWAY

WE WERE DRIVING LIKE EVERY MORNING TO OUR WORK AND WHEN WE TRY TO PASS THE INTERSECTION WE HAVE TO STOP ON A YIELD SIGN TO LET THE OTHER TRAFFIC PASS. WHEN I TRY TO HIT THE ACCELERATE ALL THE LATERAL AIR BAGS EXPLODED WITHOUT REASON AND THE1ST THING WE THOUGHT WAS THAT SOMEONE HIT US. I TRY TO MOVE THE CAR AND THE CAR WASN'T RUNNING AT ALL ALSO I CANNOT STOP IT SO I HAVE TO TURN IN OFF. WE GO OUT OF THE CAR TO SEE IF WE GOT HIT BUT THE CAR DIDN'T HAVE ANYTHING SO WE TRY TO SEE UNDER THE CAR AND ALL THE DRIVE SHAFT WAS CRACKED IN HALF! THE SHERIFFS COME TO THE SCENE AND THEY CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THE CAR WAS IN THAT CONDITION IF WE DIDN'T HAVE A WRECK OR ANYTHING! THEY SAY THAT EVERYTHING LOOKS LIKE A SAFETY RECALL, WE DID A RESEARCH ONLINE AND WAS RIGHT MY CAR HAS A SAFETY RECALL SINCE 2013 AND THEY NEVER SEND ME A LETTER OR CALL ME TO LET ME KNOW ABOUT IT! I DROVE THAT CAR EVERYDAY TO WORK,TO PICK UP MY KIDS FROM SCHOOL ETC..ETC.. AND I CAN'T BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENED I COULD DIE IF MY CAR WASN'T STOP! I WAS VERY LUCKY THAT I WAS ON A YIELD SIGN WHEN EVERYTHING HAPPEN. NOW MY CAR INSURANCE DIDN'T WANT TO PAY ANYTHING BECAUSE THEY FOUND OUT ABOUT THE RECALL AND TOLD ME THAT THE AGENCY HAS TO PAY FOR EVERYTHING BECAUSE THAT WAS A MANUFACTURER PROBLEM! BUT THE DODGE DON'T WANT TO PAY OR FIX ANYTHING THEY ALSO HAVE THE NERVE TO TOLD ME THAT MY CAR DIDN'T HAD A SAFETY RECALL AT ALL EVEN WHEN THE MOPAR PAGE SAY THAT MY CAR DID HAD A RECALL! NOW I'M WITHOUT CAR AND DEALING WITH THE EXPENSES OF TOWING MY CAR ETC..ETC..

FOR OVER THE LAST YEAR MY CAR HAS BEEN LOCKING AND UNLOCKING ON ITS OWN . MY HORN HAD BEEN SOUNDING OFF EVEN WHILE IM DRIVING WITHOUT ME UTILIZING THE HORN AND EVEN WHEN IM AT HOME WITHOUT THE ALARM ON. I ALSO HAVE HAD REPAET ISSUE WITH THE HEADLIGHT AND TAILLIGHTS BECAUSE THE WIRES KEEP BURNING OUT .
