VEHICLE HAS HAD REPEATED ISSUES WITH ACCELERATION AND SHIFTING GEARS SINCE PURCHASE. VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE OVER 40 MPH WHILE DRIVING AND RPMS REDLINE. IT HAS BEEN IN FOR REPAIR FOR OVER 40 DAYS SINCE MARCH 2016 AND IS CURRENTLY AT DEALERSHIP. MOST RECENTLY THE VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER, INCLUDING ABILITY TO STEER AND BRAKE PROPERLY, AFTER BEING IN REVERSE BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY. DURING THE LAST TWO INCIDENTS, NO WARNING LIGHTS HAVE ILLUMINATED, NOR HAVE THERE BEEN ANY FAULT CODES FOUND IN THE VEHICLE'S SYSTEM. THE VAN IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE AND UNRELIABLE, AND IS A DANGER TO MYSELF AND THREE YOUNG CHILDREN - AS WELL AS OTHER VEHICLES ON THE ROAD. I HAVE REQUESTED ARBITRATION UNDER NEW YORK STATE'S LEMON LAW AND I HAVE ATTACHED A COPY OF PAPERWORK RECENTLY SUBMITTED. THE PDF DESCRIBES, IN GREATER DETAIL, THE ONGOING ISSUES WITH THE VEHICLE, AS WELL AS CHRYSLER'S REPEATED ATTEMPTS TO SERVICE IT WITHOUT SUCCESS. SINCE VEHICLES ARE MASS PRODUCED, I WORRY THAT OTHER CONSUMERS ARE EXPERIENCING THESE SAME DANGEROUS ISSUES, WITH NO REMEDY IN SIGHT. THANK YOU FOR LOOKING INTO THIS MATTER. *TR

ALL OF THE WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH CAME ON, TACHOMETER AND SPEEDOMETER CEASED TO WORK EVEN THOUGH THE MOTOR KEPT ON RUNNING. CAR WAS TOWED TO LOCAL CHRYSLER DEALER. A WEEK LATER THEY TOLD ME THE RADIO SHORTED OUT AND THIS CAUSED THE DASH LIGHTS TO MALFUNCTION. THE RADIO WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY AND THE PROBLEM HAS NOT REOCCURRED YET.

THE RPM GOES UP TO 4000 TO 5000 RPM & THEN IT'S START SHIFTING THE GEARS ALSO WHEN I DRIVE THE CAR ON HIGHWAY AND PUT CAR ON CRUISE CONTROL THE RPM STAYS NEAR BY 3000 TO 4000RPM. WHEN I PRESS THE ACCELERATOR IT'S NEVER TAKE QUICK PICK IT'S ALWAYS TAKE LONG TIME FOR PICK THE SPEED AND THE ENGINE OR TRANSMISSION MAKE SOME HEAVY NOISE.

AS PER ME THE GEAR IS NOT SHIFTING SMOOTHLY & QUICKLY AS IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE. *TR

WE WERE TRAVELING AT A LOW SPEED SO WHEN THE VAN CAME TO A STOP WE WERE ABLE TO RESTART IT. THE DEALERSHIP DIDN'T SOUND TO CONCERNED AND ARE GOING TO LOOK AT THE VAN ON THURSDAY. I'M EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED WITH THEIR RESPONSE AS THIS COULD HAVE EASILY HAPPENED WITH MY KIDS IN THE CAR WHEN IT WAS TRAVELING AT A HIGHER RATE OF SPEED.

9/27/2016

THREE DIFFERENT TIMES THE GAS PEDAL., ON FULL ACCELERATION HAS STUCK TO THE FLOOR. LAST TIME WAS ON 31 AUGUST WHEN PULLED OUT OF THE LEE COUNTY FLORIDA VA CLINIC WHICH IS ON A CORNER AND TRAFFIC WAS DOING 15-20 MPH ABOVE THE 35 MPH LIMIT. U WAS IN LEFT LANE OF 4 LANE ROAD AND WHEN THE GAS PEDAL WOULD NOT RELEASE, AFTER STOMPING ON IT 3-4 TIMES AND AFTER CARS HAD PASSED ME ON THE RIGHT, I PUT IT IN NEUTRAL AND WAS, THE ENGINE WAS RACING FULL THROTTLE, ABLE TO PULL OF THE RIGHT HAND SHOULDER WHERE I AGAIN STOMPED COUPLE TIMES AND IT WOULD NOT RELEASE SO I SHUT IT OFF BEFORE THE ENGINE BLEW UP. AFTER I SHUT IT OFF, THE GAS PEDDLE DID RELEASE AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT BACK TO OUR RESIDENCE. I HAVE SINCE NOT PUT THE GAS PEDDLE TO THE FLOOR AS THIS HAD HAPPENED TWICE BEFORE. I HAVE NOT CONTACTED THE LOCAL CHRYSLER DEALER, DOUGLAS CHRYSLER IN VENICE ON THIS ISSUE BUT I PLAN ON TALKING TO THE SERVICE ADVISOR, (XXXX) THANK YOU PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TT CONSUMER STATED THAT THE GAS PEDAL STUCK, SERVICE MANAGER, THROTTLE BODY APART AND CLEANED OUT CARBON.

I WAS ATTEMPTING TO MOVE THE SECOND ROW BUCKET SEAT FORWARD. I PULLED ON THE SIDE OF THE SEAT AND THE ENTIRE SEAT FOLDED, INCLUDING THE HEADREST. MY HAND WAS NEAR THE HEADREST, AND WHEN THE HEAD REST CLOSED, MY FINGER WAS CAUGHT UNDER WHERE THE BARS THAT SUPPORT THE HEAD REST AND THE HEAD REST AND THE TIP OF MY FINGER WAS CRUSHED AND FRACTURED. WHEN THE HEADREST CLOSES THE IMPACT IS SO FORCEFUL. I DON'T HAVE A VIN SINCE THIS WAS A RENTAL.

FRONT DRIVER SEAT NOT STABLE. SEAT MOUNTING LOOSE . YOU CAN FEEL SEAT SHAKE AND HEAR IT SQUEAK WHEN DRIVING VEHICLE.

6/29/2017

THE "SERVICE TIRE" WARNING LIGHT ACTIVATES AND THE INFORMATION CENTER DOES NOT HAVE AN AIR PRESSURE READING FOR THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE. THE WARNING ACTIVATES AFTER DRIVING FOR SOME MILES AND THEN GOES OFF WITHIN TWO MINUTES. DEALERSHIP SAYS THE SENSOR IS WORKING AND THERE ARE NO "CODES" TO CHECK. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A MONTH. TIRE PRESSURE IS FINE.

12/10/2016

CORRODED WIRING TO TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR ON A THREE YEAR OLD VEHICLE. WIRING ON A THREE-YEAR-OLD VEHICLE SHOULD NOT BE CORRODED ALREADY! THIS CAUSES THE SENSOR TO NOT MONITOR OF THE TIRE PRESSURE AT ALL OR INCORRECTLY MONITOR THE TIRE PRESSURE. THIS COULD BE A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE IF THE TIRE IS NOT INFLATED CORRECTLY.

ON AUGUST 15, 2017, WHILE DRIVING UP A HIGHWAY INCLINE, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER, POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES. I WAS APPROACHING A STOP LIGHT ABOUT AN EIGTH MILE AWAY SO I ALLOWED THE VEHICLE TO COAST, FORCEABLY STEERING IT THROUGH A SLIGHT CURVE AND THEN BRAKING. WHEN I STOPPED, I PUT THE GEAR SELECTOR INTO PARK AND THEN RESTARTED THE VEHICLE. I CALLED MY LOCAL CHRYSLER DEALER THE NEXT MORNING. THEY STATED THAT BECAUSE THERE WAS NO "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT AND UNLESS IT HAPPENED AGAIN WHILE THEY WERE DRIVING IT THEY WOULD BE UNABLE TO KNOW WHAT HAD OCCURRED OR WHAT WAS WRONG. THIS HAS NOT OCCURED AGAIN. THE VEHICLE WAS ABOUT 14 MONTHS OLD AT THE TIME AND HAD ROUGHLY 15,000 MILES ON IT.

11/20/2017

THE HILL HOLDER BRAKE FEATURE DISENGAGES WHEN THE DRIVER DOOR IS OPENED. THE CAR WAS ON AN INCLINE FACING UP AT A STAND STILL. DO NOT KNOW IF THE SAME WILL HAPPEN IN THE REAR SEAT WHERE CHILDREN MAY JUMP OUT THINKING THE CAR IS STOPPED AND SECURE.

THE CHRYSLER BLIND SPOT DETECTION IS FAULTY ON MARCH 30 IT BEGAN BEEPING RANDOMLY WITH MESSAGE 'BLIND SPOT DETECTION UNAVAILABLE' THIS CONTINUED FOR THE NEXT TWO WEEKS. IT WAS RANDOMLY AND PERSISTENT WHEN DRIVING. THE BEEPING WAS A CONSTANT DISTRACTION TO MY DRIVING. IT WAS A SAFETY CONCERN. IN THE THIRD WEEK THE MESSAGE WHEN THE BEEPING WAS 'SERVICE BLIND SPOT DETECTION' WE TOOK THE CAR IN FOR SERVICE AT THAT POINT. IT WAS A COST OF $1400.00. THIS IS AN ELECTRIC SHORT IN THE VEHICLE VERY NEAR THE GAS TANK. IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN. AS I RESEARCHED THE ISSUE I WAS SURPRISED THAT THEIR IS DOCUMENTATION BACK TO 2012 THAT IS READILY AVAILABLE OF THIS ISSUE.

CPSC: THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS BLINKING AND THE VAN KEPT STALLING. THEN THERE WAS THE PROBLEM WITH THE SLIDING DOOR FLEW OPEN WHILE DRIVING. *BF THE DEALER FOUND THE RIGHT SIDE SLIDING DOOR HANDLE BUTTON WAS STICKING. THEY REPLACED THE HANDLE AND RE-INSTALLED A TOP HINGE. THE CONSUMER HAD TO RETURN TO THE DEALER FOR A SECOND TIME, BECAUSE THE RIGHT SLIDING DOOR WAS MAKING A NOISE AND IT STILL WAS NOT LATCHING PROPERLY. AGAIN, THE DEALER ADJUSTED THE TOP DOOR ROLLER, CLEARED AND LUBED THE TRACKS. THE NEXT DAY, THERE WAS STILL A NOISE IN THE DOOR AND IT WAS STILL NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. THE DEALER REPLACED THE TOP, SLIDING ROLLER AGAIN. FOUR DAYS LATER, THE DOOR DIDN'T WORK AT ALL AND HAD NO MOTOR FUNCTION AND DID NOT WORK. *JB

MY STEERING CONTROLS DO NOT WORK. THE STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS DONT WORK AND CRUISE CONTROL DOES NOT WORK. THE CONTROLS FOR THE SPEEDOMETER FOR DIGITAL USE DO NOT WORK. THERE IS ONLY 36000 MILES ON THE CAR AND THE PART TO FIX IS UNAVAILABLE. THE QUESTION IS WHY NO RECALL WHEN U CANT ORDER THE PART SO OBVIOUSLY EVERYONE IS HAVING AN ISSUE AND THIS NOT WORKING COULD HAVE PREVENTED 2 ACCIDENTS THAT HAVE OCCURRED HAD THE HORN WORKED LIKE IT SHOULD.
