I PURCHASED AT FROM MICHIGAN AUTO WHEEL & TIRES (MAWT) AT 38190 VAN DYKE AVE, STERLING HEIGHTS, MI 48310 AND HAD THEM MOUNTED, BALANCED, AND INSTALLED ON MY VEHICLE IN PREPARATION FOR MY VACATION TRIP. WHILE ON MY TRIP ONE OF THE TIRES WENT FLAT. WHEN I HAD THE TIRE REPLACED, I LEARNED THAT THE 4 TIRES WERE NOT NEW, BUT WERE ALL ABOUT 5 YEAR OLD AND EACH HAD A PATCHES ON THE SIDEWALL. WHEN REPUTABLE DEALERS HAVE A TIRE THAT AGES OUT OF THEIR INVENTORY AT APPROXIMATELY 5 YEARS, THEY DESTROY THE TIRE BY DRILLING THE SIDEWALL. THEY PAY A RECYCLER TO DISPOSE OF THE TIRE. IN MY CASE, THE TIRES HAD NO SIGN OF WEAR AND APPEARED NEW. IT APPEARS THAT MAWT IS INVOLVED IN PURCHASING SCRAP TIRES AND REPAIRING THEM, OR PURCHASING REPAIRED SCRAP TIRES, AND SELLING THEM AS NEW. THIS IS A DANGEROUS PRACTICE. I HAVE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION AND DOCUMENTATION.

EVERY TIME I CONTACT MY LOCAL DEALER, THEY TELL ME THE PART IS NOT AVAILABLE...I NOW HAVE NO FAITH THAT THIS WILL EVER BE RESOLVED. HELP!
COMPLAINT IS ABOUT RECALLS BEING PAINFUL AND FCA NOT SEEMING LIKE IT WANTS TO PERFORM THEM: R60: PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE THOUGH WE GOT A NOTICE LABELED "IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL" MONTHS AGO. ACCORDING TO OUR DEALER PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE. APPARENTLY THIS IS FOR AN AIRBAG ISSUE BUT IT DOES NOT SEEM THAT FCA IS MAKING "EVERY EFFORT TO OBTAIN THESE PARTS AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE" AS IS STATED ON THE RECALL NOTICE. N47: I HAVE CALLED OUR LOCAL DEALER A FEW TIMES AND THEY REFUSE TO LOOK AT IT SAYING THAT SINCE WE DON'T HAVE AN AFTERMARKET TRAILER HITCH THAT OUR VEHICLE IS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR ANY REMEDY FOR THE EXPLODING GAS TANKS. IS OUR VEHICLE SAFE TO DRIVE???

THIS IS THE 2ND TIME I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM. THE HEATER/BLOWER/VENT SYSTEM FAILED AND NO HOT AIR COMES OUT THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE CAR INCLUDING THE DEFROSTER WHICH IS DANGEROUS. IT TURNS OUT THAT THERE ARE CHEAP PLASTIC TEMPERATURE DOORS ON THE HEATING SYSTEM UNDER THE DASH THAT BREAK. THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM ON 1999-2004 JEEPS WITH DUAL HEATING SYSTEMS. I HAD THIS REPAIR DONE AT 72,500 MILES AND NOW AGAIN AT 141,900 MILES. BOTH TIMES THE REPAIR WAS ABOUT $1500. THE REPAIRS WERE DONE ON NOV 9, 2009 AND DEC 2, 2015. I AM TAKING THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER TODAY BECAUSE THE AIR IS STILL NOT COMING OUT OF THE VENTS PROPERLY. I WAS CHECKING ABOUT RECALLS BEFORE I GO TO THE DEALER, AND I JUST FOUND THIS WEBSITE THAT DESCRIBES THE COMMON PROBLEM AND A LOW COST WAY TO FIX IT YOURSELF. HTTP://WWW.JGCPARTS.COM/JEEPHEATER.HTML . I HOPE YOU CAN HELP ME AND ALL THE OTHERS WHO HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM!!!!

Reading these
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.
