Suspension cross member frame, struts, bushings & sway bar. took car in for routine oil change. mechanic inspected car & noticed severe rusting on front cross member. so, bad that my car was not safe to drive. i was told there was a recent recall from dodge that had expired in 2018. i never saw this recall notice. i did get the airbag recall notice & took my car ro dodge to fix in spring 2018. they could have fixed the crossmember at that time. the mechanic also had to replace struts, bushing & suspension stabilizer sway bar as a result of the rusted suspension cross member.
Electrical throttle control light has popped up several times and i've noticed it's when it has rained. when this happens, the car slows down and causes forcefully pull over and shut the car off. it doesn't start after the first few tries and eventually does. the car began to overheat after driving it over 60mph for about 20mins. the car has given me the engine coolant temperature warning symbol when this happens, making an ugly almost screeching sound,slows down the car until i can't push the gas any longer causing me to pull over to turn off the car until it restarts again. the car is beginning to over heat after driving it for a long period of time over 20 mins this will began to happen. i've put coolant recently and not sure if there's a hole in the reservoir but i've done what i could to get this fixed. the car jolts after 3rd gear especially going up hill.
Takata recall. my car keeps on blowing the rear tire about every 6-8 months.my steering wheel also shakes/vibrates when driving over 55 mph. the tires are wearing uneven. i have discovered that there is a rear cross member recall for my car which would explain this. i will be taking my car in to be aligned however i would like to know how to get the recall honored before doing so
Takata recallmy wife and i purchased a vehicle and we thought we got a good deal until the car quickly became a death trap that was so unsafe to drive. the steering would pull too the left and when we went around a bridge on the freeway or any turning of the wheel. we had to stabilize the car because it would almost hop to the left and there would be a lot of traffic regardless on freeway or streets. we told them there was a lapse in the speed and this has just been a nightmare. we already paid almost all the car and we still have our warranty but they want us to pay 400 dollars, what we pay as a car pymt every month. or they said they'd finance the work they do on the car through car finance department. my wife said absolutely not. we have kids and instead of enjoying time in the car, we've spent stressed paying for it since the first week. we've been to the point of so much fear to feeling as though it's an icy day and the roads are wet and so slippery but the problem is... it wasn't even raining or snowing.. fear of crashing or something breaking. my wife read a lot about the same thing happening with our vehicle. she saw too many people, iust like us and it said recalled, but it said things that have been reported that should be recalled but hasn't been at that time. i'm reporting this because we aren't going to pay to die in a car the mechanic didn't even want to drive far because it wasn't safe!! the mechanic from the same dealership we purchased the carfrom
Steering column shimmies while driving... also the electrical heater/air conditioning does not work just had it replaced with a new motor
Steering wheel has a slight noise when turning .it feels like a clicking sound when i turn the wheel. *tr
I parked my car in parking lot while car was in drive turned off the ignition and i withdrew my key from the ignition and left the car. when i returned to the car 3 people were leaning against the rear of the car to keep it from rolling out into 2 other cars. the door was locked and the shift was still in drive. this is a safety hazard. the dodge mechanic found that the shifter is broken internally and needs to be replaced. *js
