VEHICLE IS UNDER RECALL W12/NHTSA 20V-124. FIAT/CHRYSLER (FCA) HAS BEEN STALLING US FOR QUITE A LONG TIME. THE CLUTCH PRESSURE PLATE MAY BECOME OVERHEATED AND FRACTURE THE TRANSMISSION, WHICH CAN RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY, OR THE CAR GETTING FIRE.THE DEALER SAYS THAT CHRYSLER DOESN'T HAVE THE PART REQUIRED TO FIX THE CAR, AND FCA KEEPS ROUTING ME FROM ONE REPRESENTATIVE TO ANOTHER, BUT THEY WON'T EVEN SAY IF THEY HAVE THE PART. I HAVE BEEN MAKING PAYMENTS DILIGENTLY ON A CAR THAT CANNOT BE DRIVEN, AS THE STATEMENT ON THEIR OWN LETTER INFORMS THAT THE RECALL PERTAINS TO A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. MY CAR HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER AND DEEMED THAT THERE IS A LEAK AND THE CLUTCH HOSE SO I SHOULDN'T DRIVE IT. THE CLUTCH ALREADY FEELS EXTREMELY SOFT AND I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT. FCA DOES IS NOT OFFERING ANY HOPES OF FIXING NOR IS PROVIDING ANY INFORMATION REGARDING A TIMELINE. *TR
I WAS USING THE CRUISE CONTROL WHEN TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY (3HR DRIVE) WAS GETTING OFF THE EXIT AND WHEN I WENT TO CANCEL IT WOULD NOT DO IT NOR TURN OFF. I WAS VERY FORTUNATE THAT WAS ABLE TO PRESS THE BRAKE AND WAS ABLE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. I CALLED THE DEALER AND THE CORPORATE OFFICE AND IT SHOWS NO RECALLS. THEY SUGGESTED TO MAKE A COMPLAINT THROUGH NHTSA. THIS VEHICLE SHOULD BE INCLUDED UNDER THE RECALL U62/NHTSA 18V-332. ANY ASSISTANCE WILL BE APPRECIATED.*DT CONSUMER HAS NOT USED THE CRUISE CONTROL SINCE THE INCIDENT.*JB
AT 1/11/19 AT 4:30PM,I WAS DRIVING N BOUND AT 35MPH. I STARTED TO DECELERATE BY LETTING OFF OF THE THROTTLE- I WAS MAKING A TURN INTO A GROCERY STORE PARKING LOT, WHEN THE THROTTLE WENT TO WOT BY ITSELF. LUCKILY THE CAR IS A MANUAL- SO I HAD TO PUT IT IN A HIGHER GEAR AND RELEASE THE CLUTCH WITH THE BRAKE ON TO GET IT TO STOP.
WHEN TURNING INTO A PARKING SPOT ON AN INCLINE, I HAD SLOWED TO START THE TURN. I THEN LET OFF THE BRAKE A BIT TO BE ABLE TO ROLL INTO THE SPOT. THE CAR THEN ACCELLERATED INTO THE WALL AT THE END OF THE SPOT DAMAGING MY BUMPER, SCRATCHING THE CAR NEXT TO MINE AND ALSO THE WALL I HIT.
CRUISE CONTROL "ON" AT APPX. 55 MPH - HAD TO BRAKE DUE TO TRAFFIC - BUT, CRUISE CONTROL REMAINED "ON" - ONLY HEAVY BRAKING EVENTUALLY STOPPED VEHICLE - CRUISE CONTROL WAS "FIGHTING" THE BRAKES - BRAKES "WON" THAT BATTLE. TOOK IT TO DEALER WHO COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. *TR
