Safety Issue:

Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2014-2018 Dodge Journey, Charger and Durango, RAM 2500, 3500, 3500 Cab Chassis (more than 10,000lb), 4500 Cab Chassis and 5500 Cab Chassis, Jeep Cherokee and Grand Cherokee and Chrysler 300, 2014-2019 RAM 1500, 2015-2018 Dodge Challenger, 2015-2017 Chrysler 200, 2016-2018 RAM 3500 Cab Chassis (less than 10,000 lb), 2017-2018 Chrysler Pacifica and 2018 Jeep Wrangler vehicles. These vehicles are being recalled to address a defect that could prevent the cruise control system from disengaging. If, when using cruise control, there is a short circuit within the vehicle's wiring, the driver may not be able to shut off the cruise control either by depressing the brake pedal or manually turning the system off once it has been engaged, resulting in either the vehicle maintaining its current speed or possibly accelerating.

Potential Risk:
If the vehicle maintains its speed or accelerates despite attempts to deactivate the cruise control, there would be an increased risk of a crash.
FREE Recall Solution:
Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the software, and perform a software flash on the engine or powertrain control module, free of charge. The recall began June 4, 2018. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Note: Owners are advised to stop using cruise control until the software update has been performed. In the event that cruise control cannot be disengaged while driving, owners should firmly and steadily apply the brakes and shift the transmission to neutral, placing the vehicle in park once it has stopped.

I BOUGHT THIS NEW CAR IN DECEMBER 2018. THE THREE DAYS AFTER, I REALIZE THE CAR WAS MAKING DEEP LOUD HUMMING/RUMBLING NOISE "ZZZZZZ" SOUND WHILE I WAS DRIVING AT 10MPH-40MPH. IT GETS WORST LAST NIGHT, THE HUMMING SOUND CAME EVERY 15 SECONDS, AND LAST ABOUT 5 SECOND OR LONGER. THE SOUND WAS LIKE THE TIRES GOING TO FELL OFF THE CAR/A JET LEFT OR A MOTORCYCLE PASSES BY. I WENT TO THE DEALER 5 TIMES SINCE THIS PROBLEM APPEARS. THEY SAID THEY DID EVERYTHING THEY COULD, THEY GAVE ME 2 REPORTS, AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE THIS PROBLEM, SO THEY REFUSE TO EXCHANGE OR RETURN THIS PROBLEM CAR. I FELT VERY VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE THIS CAR. THE DEALER TOLD ME "IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE BECAUSE NOTHING SHOWS ON THE PANEL, NO WARNING LIGHT." BUT I THINK BECAUSE OF NOTHING SHOWS ON THE PANEL IS THE SCARIEST PART. IT IS A NEW CAR. I WAS DRIVING ON THE NICE AND FLAT ROAD. I DIDN'T TURN THE RADIO OR AC ON. I TURN OFF THE INSIDE AIR CIRCULATION. I CLOSED ALL THE WINDOWS WITHOUT A GAP. EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL AND IT STARTS HUMMING. I HAVE DRIVE TRUCK/PK TRUCK FOR 35 YEARS, AND IT IS THE FIRST TIME OF MY LIFE HERD A CAR MAKING SUCH A NOISE. A CAR IS HAVING A PROBLEM AND SHOWS ANY WARNING LIGHT, EVEN A PROFESSIONAL CAN'T SOLVE? WHAT IS THE PROBLEM? IS THE TIRE GOING FELL OFF WHEN I'M DRIVING? IS THE CAR GOING TO CONSTANTLY STOP ON THE HIGHWAY? IS THE BREAK NOT GOING TO DO ITS WORK WITHOUT A WARNING? I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS, AND WHO KNOWS WHAT THE ANSWER IS. I'M SO DONE WITH THIS CAR. I HAVE A LOT OF VIDEOS RECORDED WHEN THE HUMMING HAPPENS, BUT ALL OF THEM ARE BIGGER THAN SIZE 5MB. I WONDER IF THERE ANY OTHER WAY TO SHOW THE EVIDENCE. I CAN DO EMAIL TO THE AGENT.

I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS, AND WHO KNOWS WHAT THE ANSWER IS. I'M SO DONE WITH THIS CAR. I HAVE A LOT OF VIDEOS RECORDED WHEN THE HUMMING HAPPENS, BUT ALL OF THEM ARE BIGGER THAN SIZE 5MB. I WONDER IF THERE ANY OTHER WAY TO SHOW THE EVIDENCE. I CAN DO EMAIL TO THE AGENT.

Additional Notes:

I BOUGHT THIS NEW CAR IN DECEMBER 2018. THE THREE DAYS AFTER, I REALIZE THE CAR WAS MAKING DEEP LOUD HUMMING/RUMBLING NOISE "ZZZZZZ" SOUND WHILE I WAS DRIVING AT 10MPH-40MPH. IT GETS WORST LAST NIGHT, THE HUMMING SOUND CAME EVERY 15 SECONDS, AND LAST ABOUT 5 SECOND OR LONGER. THE SOUND WAS LIKE THE TIRES GOING TO FELL OFF THE CAR/A JET LEFT OR A MOTORCYCLE PASSES BY. I WENT TO THE DEALER 5 TIMES SINCE THIS PROBLEM APPEARS. THEY SAID THEY DID EVERYTHING THEY COULD, THEY GAVE ME 2 REPORTS, AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE THIS PROBLEM, SO THEY REFUSE TO EXCHANGE OR RETURN THIS PROBLEM CAR. I FELT VERY VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE THIS CAR. THE DEALER TOLD ME "IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE BECAUSE NOTHING SHOWS ON THE PANEL, NO WARNING LIGHT." BUT I THINK BECAUSE OF NOTHING SHOWS ON THE PANEL IS THE SCARIEST PART. IT IS A NEW CAR. I WAS DRIVING ON THE NICE AND FLAT ROAD. I DIDN'T TURN THE RADIO OR AC ON. I TURN OFF THE INSIDE AIR CIRCULATION. I CLOSED ALL THE WINDOWS WITHOUT A GAP. EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL AND IT STARTS HUMMING. I HAVE DRIVE TRUCK/PK TRUCK FOR 35 YEARS, AND IT IS THE FIRST TIME OF MY LIFE HERD A CAR MAKING SUCH A NOISE. A CAR IS HAVING A PROBLEM AND SHOWS ANY WARNING LIGHT, EVEN A PROFESSIONAL CAN'T SOLVE? WHAT IS THE PROBLEM? IS THE TIRE GOING FELL OFF WHEN I'M DRIVING? IS THE CAR GOING TO CONSTANTLY STOP ON THE HIGHWAY? IS THE BREAK NOT GOING TO DO ITS WORK WITHOUT A WARNING? I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS, AND WHO KNOWS WHAT THE ANSWER IS. I'M SO DONE WITH THIS CAR. I HAVE A LOT OF VIDEOS RECORDED WHEN THE HUMMING HAPPENS, BUT ALL OF THEM ARE BIGGER THAN SIZE 5MB. I WONDER IF THERE ANY OTHER WAY TO SHOW THE EVIDENCE. I CAN DO EMAIL TO THE AGENT.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)

Potential Consequences:

THE VEHICLE INITIALLY HAD A REPORTED STEERING FAILURE TWICE ON DECEMBER 19TH. THIS WAS REPORTED TO NHTSA UNDER FILE 1162423. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER THE SAME DAY. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE WHY THIS OCCURRED. THEN, AGAIN ON DECEMBER 30TH THIS OCCURRED AGAIN AT HIGHWAY SPEED, ALMOST CAUSING A COLLISION. IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED THE DEALER AGAIN AND THE DEALER WAS CONCERNED OVER SAFETY ISSUE AND OFFERED A RENTAL VEHICLE WHILE INSPECTING THE VEHICLE. ON THE WAY TO THE DEALER THIS MORNING, THE POWER STEERING TURN OFF AND AGAIN THE MESSAGE CENTER DISPLAYED IN RED " POWER STEERING UNAVAILABLE SERVICE REQUIRED".. THIS WAS DISPLAYED ON THE PRIOR OCCASIONS.... WHILE DRIVING SLOWLY TO THE DEALER THIS LOSS OF STEERING OCCURRED ANOTHER 3 TIMES INTERMITTENTLY WITH ANOTHER WARNING "SERVICE AIR SUSPENSION IMMEDITALEY".... KEEP IN MIND THAT WHEN THE POWER STEERING LEAVES WITH ELECTRONIC STEERING VERY LITTLE CONTROL REMAINS. SINCE THIS HAS BEEN REPORTED TO THE DEALERS AND ALSO TO NHTSA NUMEROUS TIMES FROM VARIOUS GEOGRAPHIC AREAS SINCE AUGUST 2018 I AM SURPRISED THAT A RECALL HAS NOT BEEN ISSUED AND OR A REMEDY THROUGH THE DEALERS.
