I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE IN THE MAIL. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED MY LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP TO SEE ABOUT FIXING THE PROBLEM. THIS CALL WAS MADE IN JUNE 2014. IT IS NOW JANUARY 2015 AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO FIX THE (NOW THREE) RECALLS I HAVE ON MY JEEP. I KEEP GETTING TOLD I AM "ON THE LIST." THE LAST TIME I CALLED THE MAN IN THE PARTS DEPARTMENT WAS VERY RUDE AND I WAS TOLD THEY "ONLY GET IN ONE PART PER WEEK" AND THERE ARE "OVER 300 PEOPLE ON THE LIST"...THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE! THESE RECALLS HAVE NOT BEEN DEALT WITH IN A TIMELY OR SAFE MANNER. A BRAKE BOOSTER PROBLEM, SUN VISOR WIRING, AND NOW THE ALTERNATOR.. WHO KNOWS WHEN THESE WILL BE FIXED! WITH THESE PROBLEMS I DO NOT FEEL AS SAFE IN MY JEEP, I MAY END UP GETTING RID OF IT IF SOMEONE DOES NOT TAKE THE TIME TO FIX VEHICLES THAT HAVE RECALLS. THIS IS OUR SAFETY, SEND MORE THAN ONE PART PER WEEK SO WE CAN FEEL SAFE IN THE VEHICLE I CHOSE TO BUY! *TR

I DID NOT HAVE AN ACTUAL INCIDENT WITH THE VEHICLE - MY COMPLAINT IS ABOUT THE LACK OF ACTION FOR CERTAIN RECALLS. I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE ON AUGUST 22, 2014 STATING THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER ON MY VEHICLE MAY PREMATURELY CORRODE AND INGEST WATER. IF THE WATER FREEZES, THE DRIVER MAY HAVE TO APPLY FORCE WHICH MAY SLOW THE DRIVER'S BRAKE REACTION TIME AND CAUSE A CRASH WITHOUT WARNING. QUITE A FRIGHTENING SCENARIO. I CALLED MY JEEP SERVICE CENTER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THE REPAIR PART FOR THIS RECALL IS ON BACKORDER DUE TO A PARTS SHORTAGE. I WAS ASKED TO BE PUT ON A LIST AND THEY WOULD CALL ME WHEN THE PART ARRIVES. I CALLED THE SERVICE CENTER ON DECEMBER 18, 2014 (4 MONTHS LATER). I WAS TOLD THAT I AM NUMBER 124 ON THE WAITING LIST AND THAT THEY WERE ONLY AT NUMBER 40. I WAS TOLD THAT CHRYSLER ONLY SENDS THE SERVICE CENTER ONE REPAIR PART AT A TIME AND WHEN THEY COMPLETE ONE REPAIR, THEN CHRYSLER SENDS THEM ANOTHER REPAIR PART FOR THE NEXT CUSTOMER. I THEN ASKED THE SERVICE MANAGER IF IT IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE WITH THIS FAULTY PART - HE DID NOT ANSWER ME - ALL HE SAID WAS THAT "HE KNOWS WHAT I KNOW". ALSO A FRIGHTENING SCENARIO. DURING THE 4 MONTHS THAT I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS REPAIR, I RECEIVED ANOTHER RECALL NOTICE FOR AN ALTERNATOR DIOIDE THAT MAY EXPERIENCE RAPID FAILURE IN WHICH VOLTAGE MAY DROP TO CRITICAL LEVELS AND DISABLE THE ANTILOCK BRAKES, THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL, THE ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE, AND THE CENTRAL BODY CONTROLLER. THIS MAY LEAD TO VEHICLE SHUTDOWN AND/OR AN ELECTRICAL FIRE. THIS RECALL NOTICE STATES PLAINLY THAT "THE PARTS REQUIRED TO PROVIDE A PERMANENT REMEDY FOR THIS CONDITION ARE CURRENTLY NOT AVAILABLE". CRAZY! *JS

WHEN I CONTACTED THE LOCAL DEALER THEY TOLD ME TO WAIT UNTIL OCT AS THE MANUFACTURER DIDN'T HAVE PARTS AVAILABLE. I CONTACTED THE DEALER, PLANET JEEP IN FLAGSTAFF, AZ ON 10 OCT AND WAS TOLD CHRYSLER WAS RATIONING PARTS AND THAT THEY WOULD PLACE ME ON A LIST. I'VE BEEN IN THAT VIRTUAL QUEUE WAITING ON PARTS SINCE 10 OCVT 2014 AND EVERY TIME I CALL THE DEALER I'M STILL ON THE LIST. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THE POOR SERVICE AS I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR PARTS TO FIX SAFETY PROBLEMS FOR GOING ON THREE MONTHS. I'VE BEEN THROUGH SEVERAL RECALLS OVER THE PAST 40-YEARS AND HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED AN EXCESSIVE DELAY LIKE THIS. IT IS ACTUALLY EASIER TO GET MY MERCEDES BENZ REPAIRED AND THE NEAREST DEALER IS A 2 HOUR DRIVE FROM HEAR. CHRYSLER HAS DEMONSTRATED A LACK OF CONCERN AND NO SENSE OF URGENCY TO CORRECT TWO SAFETY ISSUES WITH MY VEHICLE. THEIR ADVISE TO ME WAS TO CONTINUE CONTACTING MY DEALER TO ENSURE I'M STILL ON THE WAITING LIST. *TR

BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON AFTER APPROXIMATELY 5 MILES OF DRIVING AFTER STARTING THE CAR, ON 10/5/14. THIS PATTERN CONTINUED FOR TWO DAYS, AND ON THE MORNING OF 10/8/14 THE CAR STOPPED RUNNING COMPLETELY WHILE I WAS PULLING INTO THE PARKING LOT OF THE AUTO SHOP TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT. WHILE DRIVING, I LOST POWER STEERING AND ABS BEFORE THE CAR STALLED COMPLETELY A FEW MOMENTS LATER. I HAD TO HAVE THE ALTERNATOR REPLACED WITH ONLY 50,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. SEVERAL DAYS LATER I LEARNED OF A NEW RECALL ON CHRYSLER VEHICLES DUE TO ALTERNATOR PROBLEMS, AND TODAY I LEARNED MY VEHICLE WAS NOT A PART OF THIS RECALL BECAUSE I HAVE A 180 AMP ALTERNATOR, AND THOSE RECALLED WERE 160 AMP. I AM CHOOSING TO REPORT THIS INCIDENT BECAUSE I BELIEVE THE FAILURE OF MY ALTERNATOR COULD HAVE CAUSED SERIOUS INJURY TO MYSELF OR OTHER DRIVERS IF I HAD BEEN TRAVELING AT HIGH SPEED WHEN THE BATTERY DIED, AND I BELIEVE THE 180 AMP ALTERNATORS SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED FOR A POSSIBLE RECALL. *TR
