THE CAR WAS WARMING UP, IN PARK, WHILE I GOT MY HUSBAND INTO THE PASSENGER SIDE. MOMENTS LATER, OUR DR APPOINTMENT WAS CANCELED SO I TOLD MY HUSBAND TO TURN THE CAR ENGINE OFF AND GIVE ME THE KEYS SO I COULD GET HIM BACK INTO THE HOUSE WITHOUT HAVING TO GO TO THE DRIVER'S SIDE. WHEN HE TURNED THE ENGINE OFF AND HANDED ME THE KEYS, THE CAR JUMPED INTO REVERSE. WITH THE PASSENGER DOOR OPENED I TRIED PHYSICALLY TO STOP IT. MY FINGERS BECAME IMPALED IN A 4X4 POST. MY HUSBAND PUSHED THE SHIFTER STRAIGHT UP INTO PARK AND THE CAR STOPPED. I HAD MY PHONE IN MY POCKET AND CALLED A NEIGHBOR TO BACK THE CAR UP TO RELEASE MY FINGERS. I NEEDED 13 STITCHES BETWEEN TWO FINGERS. I CAN'T REMEMBER THE EXACT DATE IN JAN 2013 SO HAD TO FILL IN AN INCORRECT DAY NUMBER SO THAT THE FORM WOULD ACCEPT THE YEAR AND MONTH. MY HUSBAND WAS IN A WHEELCHAIR AT THE TIME AND LIFE WAS HARD. HOWEVER, I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP IN SALISBURY, MD WHERE THE CAR HAD BEEN PURCHASED AND TOLD THEM WHAT HAPPENED. I AM SURE THEY NEVER REPORTED THIS AND NOW THAT I HAVE FOUND THIS FORM, I DECIDED TO MAKE AN OFFICIAL REPORT. I HAVE ALSO HAD NUMEROUS ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WITH MY CAR THAT THE DEALERSHIP COULD NEVER FIND. THEY FINALLY FOUND A SHORT BUT IT WAS NOT UNTIL MY CAR WAS ACTING CRAZILY BY THE TIME I GOT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. I DON'T KNOW WHAT FAILED SO I PUT DOWN ELECTRICAL BECAUSE I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FROM THE SLIDING DOORS FOUND OPEN UPON MY RETURN TO THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS GOING ON

ALSO CALLED AND WENT TO NISSAN OF DENVILLE NJ, THE DEALER THAT WE GOT IT FROM 17 MONTHS AGO AND ALSO GOT NO HELP AT ALL. *TR

WHILE DRIVING AT ABOUT 40-45 MPH AND COMING TO MIDDLE LANE FOR MAKING A LEFT TURN APPROACHING RED LIGHT. ESC LIGHT CAME ON. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE ON THIS VEHICLE. ROAD CONDITION: DRY.

I WAS PREPARING TO LEAVE HOME ON THE MORNING OF MARCH 14, 2015. I BACKED THE CAR OUT OF THE GARAGE AND JUST AS I WAS ABOUT TO PULL FORWARD THERE WAS SMOKING COMING FROM THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF THE HOOD. THE VEHICLE HAD BARELY WARMED UP, THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED SO I EXIT THE VEHICLE TO SEE WHAT'S HAPPENING. JUST AS I LEFT THE HOOD ABOUT TWO INCHES, THERE IS A FIRE IN THE REAR OF THE ENGINE CABIN WITH SPARKS FROM IT. I IMMEDIATELY BACKED AWAY FROM THE CAR AND WITHIN MINUTES THE ENTIRE ENGINE COMPARTMENT WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES. THE EASTPOINTE, MI FIRE DEPARTMENT CAME OUT AND RULED THE FIRE AN ELECTRICAL FIRE. THIS FIRE COULD HAVE KILLED ME AS THERE WERE NO WARNINGS JUST FIRE AND SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION SHOULD NOT OCCUR ON A VEHICLE FIVE YEARS OLD. THIS IS THE VEHICLE I TRANSPORTED MY FIVE KIDS IN AND HAD THIS OCCURRED ON THE FREEWAY WE WERE HEADING FOR DEATH OR INJURY WOULD HAVE BEEN EMINENT. I AM NOW AFRAID THAT OTHERS ARE AT SIMILAR IF NOT WORSE RISK. SHAME ON CHRYSLER FOR MARKETING A FAMILY VEHICLE WITH SUCH SIGNIFICANT RISK OF DEATH OR INJURY. *TR

ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS, AS THE CAR IS PARKED, THE FRONT WINDOWS GO DOWN, THE SLIDING DOORS SOMETIMES OPEN, THE LIGHTS COME ON, OFTEN THE LOCKS FAIL AND THE DRIVERS SIDE FRONT WINDOW WON'T GO BACK UP. OCCASIONALLY, THE CAR STARTS UP OR THE HATCHBACK GOES UP. THESE INCIDENTS ARE NUMEROUS AND HAVE BEEN HAPPENING OFF AND ON FOR OVER A YEAR.AT TIMES, THE CAR WILL NOT START UNLESS IT IS JUMPED. IT APPEARS TO BE A TIPM RELATED PROBLEM. *TR

MULTIPLE STALLING WHEN THE CAR IS RECENTLY FILLED WITH GAS OR WHEN THE CAR IS COLD AND DURING THE FIRST 5-10 MILES ON THE ROAD. FORTUNATELY NEVER AT FAST SPEEDS. RECENTLY HAD EGR VALVE REPLACED AND NO NEW EPISODES. THIS DID NOT SHOW UP ON THE COMPUTER CHECKS OF ENGINE UNTIL JUST RECENTLY DESPITE MULTIPLE STALLS. NOT SURE WHETHER THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN FIXED YET SINCE IT HAS BEEN INTERMITTENT. NOTICED THAT THERE ARE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS VEHICLE STALLING. IF THIS VALVE IS THE CAUSE OF THE STALLS THEN MAYBE RECALL IS INDICATED. I HAVE ALREADY HAD THE IGNITION SWITCH RECALL REPAIRED IN 2011. VERY FRIGHTENING AND VERY DANGEROUS TO BE DRIVING AND HAVE YOUR CAR STALL WITHOUT WARNING. *TR

I WAS DRIVING THE VAN AND THE STEERING WHEEL AND BRAKES LOCKED UP. THE VAN STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING. HAPPENED TWO SEPARATE DAYS. *TR

MY ENGINE TURNS OF WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD IN TRAFFIC , LOSING ALL POWER.....MY TAILGATE GOES UP AND DOWN RANDOMLY , WHILE PARKED OR DRIVING...CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY THIS DOESN'T QUALIFY FOR RECALL WHEN 600,000 OTHERS DO . I'M IN THE SAME UNSAFE PREDICAMENT AS THEY ARE.. *TR

AS I WAS RUNNING ERRANDS ALL OF A SUDDEN THE STEERING WHEEL FROZE AND MY BRAKE PEDAL AND ACCELERATOR QUIT FUNCTIONING, I NOTICED MY STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT WAS ON AND WITHIN ABOUT 10 SECONDS THE VEHICLE JUST STOPPED RUNNING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET, THANKFULLY I HAD AVOIDED THE HIGHWAY THAT DAY, IT'S USUALLY FASTER BUT WITH IT BEING A PRETTY DAY I WASN'T IN A HURRY. IT WAS 80 DEGREES AND SUNNY, THIS HAPPENED ON A PAVED ROAD NO STANDING WATER, NO HAZARDS. THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME IT HAS HAPPENED, LEAVING MY HOME IT'S SHUT OFF. BUT SINCE THE IGNITION SWITCH RECALL AND THE REPLACEMENT BEING INSTALLED I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS, MY $250 KEY HAD JAMMED AND IT TAKES MULTIPLE TIMES OF STARTING AND RE-STARTING THE VAN TO GET IT OUT. YESTERDAY WAS MY BREAKING POINT, HAD I BEEN ON THE INTERSTATE WHICH IS HOW I USUALLY MOVE ABOUT THE CITY IT COULD HAVE BEEN DEVASTATING. FORTUNATELY I HAVE A EXTENDED WARRANTY PLAN AND THE DEALER WILL FIX THE ISSUE FOR $100, BUT IT DOESN'T FIX THE FACT THAT I HAVE A BROKEN KEY AND IGNITION SWITCH THAT SOMETHING IS OBVIOUSLY WRONG WITH IT. I'VE OWNED 4 CHRYSLER MINI VANS AND THIS IS THE FIRST ONE THAT HAS SCARED ME. *TR

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

WHILE BACKING VEHICLE OUT OF DRIVEWAY, DRIVER NOTICED THICK BLACK SMOKE COMING OUT OF THE WINDOW BUTTON AREA. DRIVER OPENED DOOR OUT OF FEAR AS SHE WAS STILL BACKING UP VEHICLE. VEHICLE STRUCK 2ND VEHICLE IN DRIVEWAY, A 2010 HONDA CRV IN BACK RIGHT PANEL RESULTING IN A DENT. DRIVER PLACED VEHICLE IN PARK AND RAN FROM VEHICLE AFTER COLLISION. CALLED DEALERSHIP TO ASK WHY RECALL WASN'T TAKEN CARE OF WHEN VEHICLE HAD BEEN BROUGHT INTO CROWN MOTORS OF HOLLAND, MI ON NOVEMBER 4, 2014. DEALERSHIP NOTIFIED DRIVER THAT THE PART WAS ON BACKORDER BUT THAT THEY HAD MADE THE ERROR OF NOT DISCONNECTING THE PART WHICH IS WHAT LEAD TO ACCIDENT AND FIRE. *TR

WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT THEN TURNING GREEN TO GO, I NORMALLY PROCEED TO ACCELERATE THE VEHICLE LOSE ACCELERATION, AND SMOKE EMITTED FROM UNDER THE HOOD AND CLOUDING MY DRIVING VISION, I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER IN HEAVY TRAFFIC WITHOUT INCIDENT, THEN OPENED THE HOOD SINCE, I DID NOT SEE ANYTHING I ASSUMED IT WAS SAFE TO PROCEED, UPON OPENING THE HOOD, I WAS SURPRISED AND SPRAYED IN THE FACE AND HANDS FROM BOILING ANTIFREEZE, I IMMEDIATELY CLOSED THE HOOD SUFFERING MINIMUM INJURY, I WAS ABLE TO USE THE FLASHLIGHT THE CAR CAME WITH AND INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND FOUND THE COOLANT HEATER HOSE FITTING FRACTURED CAUSING THE COOLANT TO SPILL, AND SPRAY EVERYWHERE. I WAS ABLE TO CONTACT A FRIEND AND BEING CLOSE TO HOME WE WERE ABLE TO PUSH IT ALL THE WAY HOME. UNDER FURTHER INVESTIGATING THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM CHRYSLER NEVER ADDRESSED, IT APPEARS TO HAPPEN ON THE 2008-2010 MODELS IF YOU HAVE THIS PROBLEM YOU CAN DO WHAT I DID AND SAVE 800 HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=DBNYZQD9LD8. IT APPEARS THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE HAVE THIS PROBLEM. I MANAGED TO SUFFER MINOR BURNS TO THE HANDS AND FACE, AND DAYS LATTER ONLY HAD WATER BLISTERS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION BECAUSE THE DEALER STATED A DIAGNOSTIC FEE WILL BE NEEDED, AND WAS QUOTED AROUND 800 FOR THE FIX, I WAS ABLE TO FIX IT WITH $40 AS THE VIDEO SHOWS IN THE LINK ABOVE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE INCIDENT INFACT WHEN I CALLED AND TOLD THEM I WAS INJURED ALL THEY S

ONE DAY AS I WAS BACKING UP INTO MY DRIVEWAY, I NOTICED A CLICK SOUND. SO I TURNED THE WHEEL AGAIN AND EVERYTIME I TURN THE WHEEL TO THE LEFT SIDE, I AM ABLE TO HEAR A CLICK THIS IS WITH THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND JUST TURNING THE WHEEL, NORMALLY WHEN YOU HEAR A CLICKING WHILE TURNING AND DRIVING IT CAN BE A DEFECTIVE CV AXLE I HAVE NO CLUE WHAT THE PROBLEM IS, BUT ONCE AGAIN I AM TOLD THAT A DIAGNOSTIC FEE WILL BE NEEDED. I TOLD THEM THIS SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY, THEY CLAIM I AM NOT SURE BUT IF WE LOOK AND IT IS NOT YOU WILL BE CHARGED A DIAGNOSTIC FEE, TELL ME HOW THE HELL THIS IS FAIR ANOTHER WORDS THEY ARE TELLING ME I AM GOING TO ROB YOU BUT IF YOU DON'T COME HERE YOU WILL BE OK. THIS DEALER LOCATED AT LEVITTOWN NY CHRYSLER WAS EVEN IN THE NEWS A FEW YEARS BACK WHEN THE A/G FINED THEM FOR SCAMMING CUSTOMERS ARE THEY DOING IT AGAIN? MY WARRANTY EXPIRES SOON ON THE POWERTRAIN THEN WHAT? *TR

WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, AND THEN HEAVY TRAFFIC AHEAD IF I DEPRESS MY BRAKE PEDAL THE ENTIRE CAR SHAKES LIKE REAL VIOLENTLY. I CALL THE DEALER THEY SAID WE ARE AWARE OF A PROBLEM, CALL FOR AN APPOINTMENT, WHEN THEY LOOKED AT IS ABOUT 2 MONTHS LATER THEY SAID IT IS UNDER WARRANTY THEY HAD TO REPLACE THE WARPED ROTORS, AND BRAKE PADS. EVERYTHING WAS FINE TILL ABOUT 3 WEEKS LATTER IT WAS DOING IT AGAIN I WAS TOLD AGAIN THE ROTORS ARE WARPED AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY A $100 DEDUCTIBLE, I TOLD THEM IT IS BRAN NEW I REFUSE TO PAY THIS. I LEFT THE DEALER. AFTER A WEEK LATER I BRING IT IN AGAIN THE FRONT ROTORS AND PADS ALONG WITH THE SAME IN THE REAR, THEY SAID THEY CHANGED THE FRONT ROTORS AND PADS OUT OF GOOD FAITH, I TOLD THEM THANKS FOR FIXING THE LEMON. THEY SAID THE VEHICLE WILL NOT PASS INSPECTION WITH THE REAR LIKE THAT, I TOLD THEM THEY SHOULD USE BETTER PARTS, AND I WILL START USING ANOTHER DEALER, SO I DID. SINCE THEN CHRYSLER HAS ISSUED 2 RECALLS, ONE FOR THE FRONT ROTORS ONLY, AND A $100 DEDUCTIBLE, AND ANOTHER RECALL HAVING TO DO WITH THE FRONT WHEEL BEARINGS. I WAS ABLE TO FIX THE REAR AND FRONT BRAKE PADS, AND ROTORS MY SELF USING A BRAND CALLED RAYBESTOS THEY ARE AWARE OF THE CHRYSLER DEFECT AND MAKE A PROBLEM FREE ROTOR FOR THE FIX, I HAVE HAD IT INSTALLED SO FAR FOR 2 YEARS PROBLEM FREE. RAYBESTOS ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY ROTORS AND PADS. *TR

AFTER PUTTING SOME MILEAGE ON THE VEHICLE, I START TO NOTICE UNEVEN WEAR ON THE TIRES THIS IS WITH GOING TO THE DEALER EVERY 3,000 MILES OR EVERY 3 MONTHS FOR THEIR RECOMMENDED OIL CHANGES, AND TIRE ROTATIONS. I ALSO NOTICE A CRACK ON THE SIDEWALL I SPOKE TO THE DEALER THEY SAID IT IS NOT COVERED. I WAS UPSET IT IS A NEW VEHICLE WITH ABOUT 6000 MILES, THEY REFUSE TO SEEK ANY FREE FIX. AT THIS TIME AS I DRIVE THE VEHICLE I CAN FEEL THE ROADS EVERY IMPERFECTION DUE TO THE EARLY PREMATURE WEAR OF THE TIRES. *TR

WHILE DRIVING AND COMING TO A SLOW DOWN AND THEN ACCELERATING AGAIN, THE TRANSMISSION JOLTED. I THOUGHT I DID SOMETHING WRONG, SO LET IT GO A FEW HOURS LATER, THE TRANSMISSION DID IT AGAIN, I CONTACTED THE DEALER IMMEDIATELY. THEY SAID BRING IT IN NOW SO I DID THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE A PROBLEM, I WAS SENT ON MY WAY. AS I LEAVE THE DEALER IT STARTED AGAIN THIS TIME AS I CALLED THE DEALER I WAS TOLD MAKE AN APPOINTMENT, SO I DID, LIKE A MONTH LATER WHEN THEY HAD AN OPENING, THEY WERE ABLE TO ONCE AGAIN LOOK AT THE VEHICLES TRANSMISSION THEN THEY SAID AFTER 4 HOURS WE WERE ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND FIXED THE ISSUE WE HAD TO PERFORM A PCM-SOFTWARE UPDATE, AND IT IS NOW WORKING FINE THE WAY IT SHOULD BE. I ONCE AGAIN GAINED THE SAME PROBLEM AND HAD TO BRING IT BACK 3 MORE TIMES FOR THEM TO ONLY SAY WE CAN NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, I TILL TODAY HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM THEY REFUSE TO FIX IT OR EVER SAY THEIR IS A PROBLEM.HOWEVER THEY DID ADMIT THERE WAS A PROBLEM. MY WARRANTY IS SET TO EXPIRE AND THEY STILL TELL ME NO PROBLEM EXISTS, I WONDER WHAT THEY WILL TELL ME AS SOON AS THE WARRANTY EXPIRES, MOST LIKELY HAY WE FOUND A PROBLEM AND IT WILL COST A REBUILD. *TR

RECALL L25 WAS ANNOUNCED SUMMER OF 2014. IT IS NOW MARCH 2015 AND IT APPEARS THAT THERE ARE STILL NOT PARTS AVAILABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. WEBSITE INDICATES PARTS AVAILABLE BUT LOCAL DEALERS DENY HAVING PARTS. NO ONE ANSWER PHONE NUMBER ON THE RECALL NOTICE BUT RECORDED MESSAGES DENIES THAT PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. *TR

UPON STARTING THE CAR, PARTICULARLY ON DAMP AND/OR COLD MORNINGS, THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM GOES HAYWIRE. THERE IS NO POWER TO THE DASH, THE HEADLIGHTS BLINK ON AND OFF, THE LOCKS STOP WORKING, THE WIPERS GO ON BY THEMSELVES AND REMAIN ON FOR THE DURATION OF THE EVENT. THIS HAPPENS WHETHER THE CAR IS PARKED OR IN MOTION. IT IS NOT KNOWN WHETHER THIS IS IMPACTING THE AIR BAGS; THE FUEL GAUGE READS ZERO, SO IT'S NOT KNOWN IF THIS WILL IMPACT THE CAR'S ABILITY TO CONTINUE RUNNING; IT IS ALSO A MAJOR DISTRACTION IF TRYING TO DRIVE. THE DURATION VARIES, FROM ONE MINUTE TO 20 MINUTES. THIS YOUTUBE VIDEO SHOWS THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENING ON ANOTHER 2010 TOWN AND COUNTRY; THE OWNER IN THE VIDEO REPORTS THAT IT WAS BRAND NEW AT THE TIME: HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=OTNTKK0KX5Y. *TR

CONSISTENT WITH A CURRENT RECALL OF 2010 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY VEHICLES, THE ENGINE WILL JUST SHUT OFF AND STOP RUNNING WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WILL LOSE POWER WITHOUT WARNING, POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES, ALTHOUGH ALL BATTERY FUNCTIONS WILL STILL OPERATE. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE ASKED CHRYSLER SERVICE DEPARTMENTS TO LOOK AT THE VEHICLE, BUT THEY TELL ME THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. THERE IS A RECALL THAT DESCRIBES WHAT I'M EXPERIENCING EXACTLY, BUT ACCORDING TO CHRYSLER, MY VAN IS NOT A PART OF THE RECALL AND EVEN IF IT WAS, THERE HAVE NOT BEEN REPLACEMENT PARTS AVAILABLE FOR THIS RECALL FOR 2-3 YEARS. THIS IS COMPLETELY IRRESPONSIBLE ON CHRYSLER'S PART. THIS PROBLEM IS SERIOUS AND COULD EASILY RESULT IN A COLLISION. *TR

ACCORDING TO MY LOCAL SERVICE MANAGER, MY VAN DOES NOT COME UNDER RECALL L25 BECAUSE IT WAS BUILT IN AUG.2010 AND HAS THE NEW AND IMPROVED IGNITION SWITCH. I DON'T AGREE! THERE HAVE BEEN 5 OR MORE INCIDENTS WITH 3 DURING THE VAN MOVING AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS. I HAVE HAD THE CAR IN FOR THIS REPAIR 3 TIMES AT THE MADISON, CT DEALERSHIP. WE WERE TOLD DIFFERENT OPINIONS AS TO WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. I CLEARLY STATED THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THE 3 MOVING STALLS WERE ALL WITH MY WIFE DRIVING AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS, ONE WITH MY DAUGHTER. WE WERE VERY LUCKY THAT NO ONE HIT THE CAR WHEN THERE WERE THESE SUDDEN STALLS.. I POINTED OUT TO THE SERVICE MANAGER THAT MY OPINION IS THAT THE IGNITION SWITCH WAS MUCH TO LOOSE BUT HE SAID THAT IS THE WAY THEY ARE. I DON'T AGREE AGAIN! WE HAVE HAD PLYMOUTH AND CHRYSLER VANS SINCE 1985 AND HAVE NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM. *TR

ALL SYSTEMS SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 50MPH INCLUDING POWER STEERING, POWER BRAKES, ENGINE AND OTHER ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS. *TR

VAN UNEXPECTEDLY SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY. IDLE AT RED STOP LIGHT, NOTICED TRACTION CONTROL SENSOR WAS STUCK ON EVEN THOUGH ROAD CONDITIONS WERE NORMAL, NO RAIN, NO SNOW SO DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT. SECONDS PAST, STOP LIGHT TURNED GREEN, WENT TO DRIVE VIA GIVING THE CAR GAS AND NOTHING HAPPENED, BRAKES WEREN'T BEING RECOGNIZED, STEERING WAS EXTREMELY TIGHT. REALIZED AT THAT POINT THAT THE VAN COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN (IN DRIVE! IGNITION ON!) WAS ABLE TO COAST TO THE SIDE. TURNED IGNITION TO OFF, RESTARTED. NOW AFRAID TO DRIVE BECAUSE I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT HAPPENED. I COULD HAVE TOTALLY BEEN REAR ENDED SINCE THIS HAPPENED SO SUDDENLY. I WAS LUCKY TO NOT BE ON A MAJOR STREET OR ROADWAY. NOW I AM GETTING NO ANSWERS FROM CHRYSLER CORP. I FEEL ITS PART OF THIS REVISED L25 RECALL I SEEN ON NHTSA. *TR
