THE INSTRUMENT PANEL RANDOMLY LIGHTS UP WITH ALL WARNING LIGHTS AND CHIMES GOING OFF SIMULTANEOUSLY, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS ACTIVATING AND HEADLIGHTS FLASHING. STOPPING THE CAR, TURNING IT OFF AND ON DOESN'T RESET THE PROBLEM, BUT IT RANDOMLY GOES AWAY AND DOESN'T HAPPEN AGAIN FOR TWO WEEKS OR A MONTH. IT HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STOPPED OR IN MOTION, WHILE THE VEHICLE IS RUNNING. I SEE AN OPEN NHTSA INVESTIGATION MATCHING THIS ON MY VEHICLE, FOR A TIPMODULE
I WAS INFORMED IN APPROXIMATELY 2013 OR 2014 OF A SAFETY RECALL REGARDING THE WIRELESS IGNITION MODULE AND KEY FOB. I RECEIVED ADDITIONAL NOTIFICATION THAT PARTS WERE READY IN EARLY 2015 REGARDING THIS RECALL. I HAVE TRIED TO SCHEDULE SERVICE FOR THIS RECALL WITH THREE SEPARATE DEALERS NUMEROUS TIMES. I HAVE BEEN TOLD IT IS UNKNOWN WHEN PARTS WILL BE READY. I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE TURN OFF DUE TO THIS ISSUE. THE DODGE PAPERWORK STATES THEY ARE CONCERNED WITH MY SAFETY. AND THE RECALL SHOULD BE COMPLETE IN A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME. IT HAS NOW BEEN YEARS SINCE NOTIFICATION, AND NEARLY A YEAR SINCE PARTS HAVE BEEN "READY" AND THE RECALL STILL ISN'T COMPLETE. ACCORDING TO DODGE STATISTICS, AS OF OCT 26, 2015, ONLY 192,616 OF 724,503 VEHICLES HAVE BEEN COMPLETED. THIS IS NOT IN A REASONABLE TIME AND I FEEL AS IF DODGE IS SLOW ROLLING THIS RECALL TO SAVE THEMSELVES MONEY. THIS RECALL IS SIMILAR TO A 2010 RECALL.

WHILE DRIVING AROUND 45 MPH ON SOUTHBOUND GA125, THE WATER TEMPERATURE STARTED TO FLUCTUATE AND I SMELLED ANTIFREEZE BURNING. I STOPPED AT A GAS STATION AND STEAM ROSE FROM HOOD. UNDER THE HOOD, FLUID HAD SPRAYED FROM THE HEATER HOSE "Y-PIPE". ANTIFREEZE SATURATED THE UNDER-HOOD BLANKET AND COVERED THE ENGINE. ALL OF THE ANTIFREEZE WAS PURGED ONTO THE GROUND AND IN THE ENGINE BAY. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I'VE HAD TO REPLACE THIS EXACT PART. THE FIRST TIME THE VEHICLE WAS ABOUT 3 YEARS OLD (2011) I HAD IT REPLACED AT MY LOCAL DODGE DEALERSHIP (CASS BURCH VALDOSTA, GEORGIA) TODAY THE SAME PART FAILED IN THE EXACT SAME MANNER. PLEASE INVESTIGATE A MANUFACTURER'S RECALL, OR AT LEAST A BETTER QUALITY REPLACEMENT PART. PLASTIC AND HOT FLUID APPARENTLY DON'T MIX.

I RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE R03/NHTSA 14V-373 OVER A YEAR AGO. I IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP IN ITHACA, NY, AS MY VEHICLE HAD HAD THIS PROBLEM (ENGINE SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING) MANY TIMES. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY WOULD ORDER THE PARTS AND GET BACK TO ME AND THAT IS MIGHT BE A "FEW MONTHS". OVER A YEAR LATER NOT A WORD. MY HUSBAND CONTACTED A DIFFERENT DEALERSHIP IN AUBURN, NY SEVERAL MONTHS AGO AND WAS TOLD THE SAME THING. STILL HAVE NOT HEARD A WORD. I HAVE 3 CHILDREN THAT REGULARLY RIDE IN THIS VEHICLE AND HAVING THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING 55 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY AND YOU LOSE YOUR POWER STEERING IS A LITTLE UNNERVING TO SAY THE LEAST. SEEMS LIKE THE RECALL IS A FARCE AND NO ONE IS ACTUALLY GETTING THE REPAIR.
I WAS SENT A NOTICE OF "IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL" BY FIAT CHRYSLER AUTOMOBILES REGARDING MY VEHICLE'S WIRELESS IGNITION NODE MODULE; REF: R03/NHTSA 14V-373. THIS WAS ISSUED IN OCTOBER, 2014; I RECEIVED THE NOTICE SOME MONTHS LATER. DESPITE SEVERAL CALLS TO MY LOCAL DODGE CHRYSLER DEALER, I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO HAVE THIS SAFETY HAZARD REPAIRED. EVERY CALL TO RAIRDON'S CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE OF BELLINGHAM, WA HAS RESULTED IN THE SAME ANSWER: "WE DON'T HAVE THE PARTS AND HAVE NO IDEA WHEN WE WILL GET THEM." AS DIRECTED BY THE RECALL NOTICE IN THE CASE THAT MY DEALER "FAILS OR IS UNABLE TO REMEDY THIS DEFECT...WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME," I AM CONTACTING YOU FOR ASSISTANCE. FIAT CHRYSLER AUTOMOBILES NOTIFIED ME IN A TIMELY MANNER ABOUT THIS HAZARD, BUT THE LOCAL DEALER APPEARS NOT TO BE CONCERNED ABOUT IT. I THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR ANY ASSISTANCE THAT YOU MAY BE ABLE TO PROVIDE. PLEASE NOTE THAT MY VEHICLE HAS SO FAR NOT APPEARED TO SUFFER THE UNINTENDED ENGINE SHUT OFF DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL. *TR

NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
