I CALLE CHRYSLER CARE AND THEY IN NOVEMBER 2019 TOLD ME THAT IT STILL HAS TO BE FIXED UNDER THE RECALL BUT IN JUNE THEY SAY THAT THEY ALREADY FIXED THE RECALL IN 1996 AND THEY DIDN'T HAVE TO FIX IT. I HAS TO DO WITH THE ABS RECALL SO I SHOULDN'T DRIVE IT WITH THE BRAKES NOT WORKING TO STOP THE CAR. I ENDED UP GETTING ANOTHER CAR TO GET MYSELF TO WORK. THANK YOU TIME AND I HOPE TO FIND OUT IF THIS IS TRUE THOUGH YOU FOLKS.

I WAS ON MY WAY TO CHURCH, DRIVING IN A 30 MPH SPEED ZONE, GOING DOWN HILL, COMING TO A STOP AND IT HAD JUST STARTED RAINING. AS I APPLIED THE BRAKES I STARTED SLIDING/HYDROPLANING ALL OVER THE ROAD, FIRST INTO THE ONCOMING LANE, THEN BACK TO MY LANE, BUT OFF TO THE EDGE AND FINALLY MANAGED TO STOP JUST AT THE STOP SIGN. THERE WAS TRAFFIC ALL AROUND ME, BUT THANKFULLY I DIDN'T HIT ANYONE OR GO OFF INTO THE RAVINE. I HAD JUST HAD NEW BRAKE PADS PUT ON 2 WEEKS BEFORE. MY TIRES WERE WEARING, BUT MY MECHANIC/TIRE SALESMAN SAID I DIDN'T NEED NEW TIRES YET, I STILL HAD PLENTY OF TREAD. AS SOON AS I COULD PULL OVER AND CALL HIM, I SCHEDULED AN APPT. FOR NEW TIRES 2 DAYS LATER. I AM A WIDOW AND AM VERY CAREFUL TO KEEP THE CAR IN GOOD SHAPE SO MY CHANCES OF GETTING STRANDED ARE AS LOW AS I KNOW HOW TO KEEP THEM. MY SON AND SOME OTHER MEN AT CHURCH HAD ALSO LOOKED AT THE TIRES AND SAID I DIDN'T NEED TO CHANGE THEM. SO, I STARTED WONDERING WHAT COULD HAVE MADE ME HYDROPLANE LIKE THAT IF THE TIRES WEREN'T BAD, AND HAD I SPENT THE MONEY ON NEW ONES NEEDLESSLY? THAT'S WHEN I DECIDED TO RESEARCH THE RECALL SITE. AND I FOUND ANOTHER INCIDENT ALMOST IDENTICAL TO MINE, COMPLAINT FILED 10/06/2008. ALSO, THE ODOMETER DOESN'T WORK, SO I REALLY DON'T KNOW THE ACTUAL MILES. IT IS MORE THAN 165,000. THAT IS WHAT IS SHOWING. IF THERE IS SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED, I NEED TO KNOW. THE CAR RUNS GOOD, BUT I DON'T WANT TO BE UNSAFE IN IT. THAT WAS A VERY SCARY INCIDENT AND I KNOW THE LORD WAS WITH ME AND THE OTHER DRIVERS AROUND ME, BUT I DON'T BELIEVE IN TESTING HIM, KNOWING THAT SOMETHING CAN BE DONE! IN THIS INCIDENT THERE COULD HAVE EASILY BEEN A CRASH, INJURY OR EVEN DEATH. *TR
