TAKATA RECALL. AFTER I REACHED 64,000 MILES MAY VEHICLE TURNED OFF WHILE DRIVING TO WORK. IT TOOK AT LEAST 5 TIMES FOR THE MOTOR TO TURN OVER. AS SOON AS POWER WAS RESTORED BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON. NOW THE BATTERY LIGHT IS OFF BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. SINCE THEN I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE BATTERY. I'VE HAD MY BATTERY TESTED AND THAT'S NOT THE PROBLEM. THERE NOW S A MAJOR ELECTRICAL ISSUE THAT IS WRONG. I HAVE TRIED TO DRIVE MY CAR SINCE AND IT CONTINUES TO TURN OFF. THIS IS ONLY NOT A HAZARD TO MYSELF BUT TO OTHERS THAT ARE DRIVING BECAUSE IT ABRUPTLY STOPS IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. CHRYSLER I NEED YOU TO INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE.

MY CAR SUDDENLY TURNED OFF AS I WAS MAKING A TURN. I HAVE FIXED THE CAR 2 TIMES FROM THE SAME THING AND THIS WILL BE THE 3RD. I WANT TO SEE IF THERE'S SOMETHING ASSOCIATED WITH A RECALL ABOUT THE COMPUTER MODULE. IT STALLS TO TURN ON, AND WHEN IT DOES IT WON'T GO AS FAR AS A MILE

STARTING IN OCTOBER 2018 THIS CAR HAS CUT OFF ON ME FOR NO REASON AT ANY GIVEN TIME. I WILL BE DRIVING AND IT WILL CUT OFF AND TELL ME TO SHIFT INTO PARK. SOMETIMES IT CRANKS BACK UP OTHER TIMES IT DOESN'T. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO LANDMARK CHRYSLER FIVE DIFFERENT TIMES. EACH TIME I AM TOLD THAT IT'S A DIFFERENT PROBLEM. AND EACH TIME THE CAR DOES THE EXACT SAME THING AGAIN. THIS HAS ENDANGERED MY LIFE AND THE LIFE OF MY TWO YEAR OLD SON. AFTER COMPLETING TWO DIFFERENT OIL CONSUMPTION TEST LANDMARK(MORROW,GA) STILL HASN'T BEEN ABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM SO THE WARRANTY COMPANY WON'T FIX THE CAR. THEY KNOW THAT IT'S USING TOO MUCH OIL BUT THEY CLAIM THEY DON'T KNOW WHY. THIS CAR IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE ABOUT IT. THEY JUST TRY TO GET YOU TO TRADE IT IN FOR ANOTHER CAR WITH A HIGHER PAYMENT. THIS PROBLEM REALLY NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED BEFORE IT CAUSES SOMEONE THEIR LIFE. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING ON MAJOR HIGHWAYS WHEN THIS CAR HAS CUT OFF WITH NO WARNING AND NARROWLY MISSED BEING HIT BY A SEMI TRUCK. I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH CHRYSLER CORPORATE BUT THAT HAS GOTTEN ME NO WHERE BECAUSE THE PERSON I SPEAK WITH (WILL IN CUSTOMER CARE) DOES NOTHING AND CLAIMS THAT HE DOESN'T HAVE A SUPERVISOR THAT I CAN CONTACT.

I'VE BEEN INTO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT OVER 6 TIMES FOR THE SAME ISSUES. THIS CAR IS SO UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A TRANSMISSION ISSUE. MY CAR CREATES A VERY HARD JERKING WHEN SWITCHING GEARS OR SPEEDING UP. IT ALSO SHAKES WHEN THE AIR CONDITIONING IS ON AND I AM ONLY GETTING ABOUT 15 MI TO THE GALLON WHEN IT SHOULD BE 27. I'VE LEFT MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS SINCE I HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE, WORKED WITH THE DEVICE DEPARTMENT, WORKED WITH CHRYSLER AND THE SITUATION AND SAFETY CONCERN IS STILL NOT RECTIFIED. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS. IT'S MY ONLY TRANSPORTATION AND I WOULD LIKE TO KEEP MYSELF, MY 3 BABIES, AND OTHER DRIVERS SAFE. THANK YOU!

Official recalls
2May 17, 2018
Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2014-2018 Dodge Journey, Charger and Durango, RAM 2500, 3500, 3500 Cab Chassis (more than 10,000lb), 4500 Cab Chassis and 5500 Cab Chassis, Jeep Cherokee and Grand Cherokee and Chrysler 300, 2014-2019 RAM 1500, 2015-2018 Dodge Challenger, 2015-2017 Chrysler 200, 2016-2018 RAM 3500 Cab Chassis (less than 10,000 lb), 2017-2018 Chrysler Pacifica and 2018 Jeep Wrangler vehicles. These vehicles are being recalled to address a defect that could prevent the cruise control system from disengaging. If, when using cruise control, there is a short circuit within the vehicle's wiring, the driver may not be able to shut off the cruise control either by depressing the brake pedal or manually turning the system off once it has been engaged, resulting in either the vehicle maintaining its current speed or possibly accelerating.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the vehicle maintains its speed or accelerates despite attempts to deactivate the cruise control, there would be an increased risk of a crash.
Remedy: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the software, and perform a software flash on the engine or powertrain control module, free of charge. The recall began June 4, 2018. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Note: Owners are advised to stop using cruise control until the software update has been performed. In the event that cruise control cannot be disengaged while driving, owners should firmly and steadily apply the brakes and shift the transmission to neutral, placing the vehicle in park once it has stopped.
