On April 12, 2015 while driving at 65mph on hwy 195 my car died and I was forced to pull over on median. The car has done this at least a couple of times since 2013 and usually starts back up except for 1 time in Dec 2014. Today April 12,2015 the car would not start back up and I had to have it towed to my home. I will call Chrysler llc in the am. However in Dec 2014 my Dodge did the something similar it died at a slower speed 55 mph on hwy 190 and I had to have it towed to home and later had to have my engine replace due to cracked head gaskets costing me $1800 I went to Dodge country in killeen multiple times in 2014 and 2015 trying to get this problem fixed after the recall was announced on the ignition and there are no parts each time im fed up and im voicing it!!! I have 2 kids that ride with me and its not safe any more!!!!
I started having issues starting my car a few years ago (approximately 2), the key would turn but it wouldn't start unless I moved the key either up, down, or to the sides. Dodge finally replaced the part ( I can't think of the name but it was on back order). I started having the same problem less than 6 months later and the part was replaced again. Earlier this year, approximately late January, I received the recall notice for the ignition switch and called Dodge. They said the part was on back order and they weren't sure when they would receive the part. Since then, I have lost the lighting on my dash for the headlights and air-conditioning/heating dials. This occurred when I started my car and it suddenly turned off. I called in regards to finally having the lighting fixed today and that part was on national back order. The biggest problem, is the ignition switch, I have trouble starting the car, some days worse than others. I also have to check the key by tapping it when it's started to make sure it's in the "run" position. A handful of times I've tapped it and the key has turned back to the left, killing the car. Thankfully I've been parked every time. I've called Dodge about this recall and they still have yet to receive the part and have not been told a definite date as to when they will receive the part. This issue is not only frustrating it's dangerous for me and anyone else on the road. I'm tired of calling Dodge only to hear every part I need is on backorder. I truly don't believe the car I'm driving is safe anymore regardless of what the recall letter states. I think Dodge is an awful company who has horrible customer service and leaves the local dealerships with their hands tied. I truly believe they are only days away from a lawsuit.
