I PICKED UP MY VEHICLE DURING LUNCH AND NOTICED THE NOISE EN ROUTE TO AIRPORT (TRAVEL FOR WORK). 72 HOURS HAD LAPSED BEFORE MY RETURN DATE. THE CAR KEPT MAKING A "REVVING" NOISE AND TICKED/CLICKED IF I DID NOT PUSH THE GAS PEDAL DOWN TO ACCELERATE QUICKLY. IT STILL MAKES THAT NOISE AND THE TRANSMISSION (I WAS TOLD BY A NON JEEP MECHANIC) SOUNDS LIKE IT IS WINDING UP FAST EVEN THOUGH THE CAR IS MOVING SLOW (LIKE A 10 SPEED BICYCLE DOES WHEN YOU HAVE THE GEARS ADJUSTED INCORRECTLY). I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WHEN I RETURNED AND I WAS TOLD THAT I NEEDED TO BREAK IN THE VEHICLE BECAUSE IT HAD LESS THAN 100 MILES. I ALSO REPORTED THE NOISE ON TWO OCCASIONS TO A DEALERSHIP IN NEW BRITAIN,CT WHEN GETTING MFG SUGGESTED SERVICE (DOCUMENTED ON THEIR SVC FORMS). THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE GEAR ALSO WAS STUCK BUT LOOSENED UP AFTER SEVERAL USES.*AK

THIS JEEP HAS NUMEROUS PROBLEMS AND HAS BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE 4 TIME AND THEY HAVE FAILED TO REPAIR EVEN 1 OF OUR COMPLAINTS. ALL COMPLAINTS OTHER THAN THE PULL TO THE RIGHT HAVE BEEN DISMISSED WITH THE EXPLANATION OF CAN NOT DUPLICATE. THEY HAVE TRIED TO REPAIR THE PULL TO THE RIGHT BUT IT ONLY GOT WORSE. WE WERE TOLD BY A REPAIR TECH. THAT IT NEEDED A NEW PART TO CORRECT THE PULLING TO THE RIGHT BUT CHRYSLER HAS FAILED TO INSTALL THIS NEEDED PART. WE HAVE REQUESTED A REPURCHASE OF THE JEEP UNDER THE LEMON LAW BUT CHRYSLER DENIED OUR REQUEST STATING THAT THE PULL TO THE RIGHT IS DUE TO "ROAD CROWN" AND IF YOU HOLD THE STEERING WHEEL WITH A STRONG TO MEDIUM GRIP YOU DON'T NOTICE THE PULL TO THE RIGHT! WE HAVE THIS IN WRITING FROM THE ARBITRATOR THAT CHRYSLER HIRED. THE DEALERSHIP AND CHRYSLER ATTEMPTED TO CONCEAL SOME SERVICE REPAIR FORMS THAT HAD THE LOOSE REAR HATCH PROBLEM AND THE PULL TO THE RIGHT. CHRYSLER STATED IN LETTERS TO THE ATTORNEY GENERAL THAT WE HAD NEVER BROUGHT THE REAR HATCH ALARM TO THE ATTENTION OF THE DEALERSHIP WHICH WAS DISPROVED AT ARBITRATION BUT WE STILL NEVER RECEIVED A COPY OF THE REPAIR SHEET EVEN THOUGH THE DEALERSHIP HAS IT AND PROVIDED A COPY TO THE ARBITRATOR. WE HAVE PARKED THIS JEEP DUE TO THE INCREASING SEVERITY OF PROBLEMS. WE THINK THIS JEEP IS DANGEROUS DUE TO IT'S NUMEROUS DEFECTS. WE REFUSE TO LET ANYONE RIDE IN THE BACK FOR MONTHS DUE TO THE REAR HATCH (WHICH THE DISTRICT MANAGER FOR CHRYSLER FOUND WAS LOOSE AT THE ARBITRATION HEARING BY PUSHING ON THE BUMPER AND HATCH. *AK

THE JEEP STARTED SHAKING WHEN THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED AT SPEEDS OF 40 MPH AND UP AT MILEAGE OF 950 MILES. CALLED DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THIS WAS NORMAL THAT THE BRAKES NEEDED TO BREAK IN. CLAIMED THAT IT WAS SAFE TO DRIVE. I IN TURN, CONTINUED TO USE THE JEEP BUT THE PROBLEM NEVER SEEMED TO CLEAR UP. AT ABOUT 19825 MILES I WAS TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH MY WIFE AND TWO CHILDREN AND I WAS FORCED TO APPLY MY BRAKES IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION, AND INSTEAD OF COMING TO A SAFE STOP JEEP SHOCKED VIOLENTLY AND PULLED TO THE RIGHT, ALMOST HITTING THE CAR BESIDES ME .IT WAS A VERY CLOSE CALL FOR ME AND MY FAMILY. AS SOON AS POSSIBLE I TOOK MY JEEP TO THE DEALER TO HAVE THEM CHECK .THE PROBLEM THEY TOLD ME THAT ROTORS NEEDED TO BE RESURFACED, AND IT WOULD COST APPROXIMATELY 117 DOLLARS AND NOT COVERED UNDER MY WARRANTY WHICH IS BUMPER TO BUMPER 360000 MILES OR 36 MONTHS. I TOLD THE DEALER I WOULD TAKE THE JEEP TO MY MECHANIC AND HAVE THEM DO THE WORK EVEN THOUGH I WOULD THINK THEY SHOUD OF TOOK CARE OF IT AT THE DEALER UNDER THE WARRANTY . I TOLD MY MECHANIC THE PROBLEM I HAD WITH THE JEEP, AND HE INFORMED ME THAT HE ENCOUNTERED SEVRAL JEEPS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. HE INFORMED ME THAT THE ROTORS ON THE NEWWER JEEPS WERE DEFECTIVE, AND HE EXPLAINED TO ME THAT THE ROTORS ARE MADE OUT OF COMPOSITE METALS AND EVEN IF YOU RESUFACE THEM THEY WILL WARP OUT OF ROUND AGAIN, AND I WOULD HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. IN TURN, HE COULDNT GUARANTE THAT IT WOULDNT HAPPEN AGAIN. HE TOLD ME4 THE ONLY WAY TO FIX THE PROBLEM WAS TO PUT TO NEW ROTORS ON AT THE PRICE OF 450.00 . I CALLED THE DEALER AND TALKED TO THE SERVICE MANAGER RON MATZ AND THEN THE GENRAL MANAGER BRETT ADAMS AND THEY INSISTED THEY COULD NOT DO ANY THING FOR ME.IM HOPING YOU CAN HELP ME OUT. *AK
