 Description of the problemMy vehicle has undergone repeated repair attempts, for a defect and nonconformity with defective transmission, transmission clunk, defective a/c, defective door locks, defective window regulator, and radio failure. These nonconformities substantially impair the use, value and safety of the subject vehicle. The transmission has shifting issues to the point of having to force it into reverse, especially if parked on an incline. The defective a/c and radio seem to be contained in the all-in-one unit in which the radio goes out and a/c will turn on at random and not turn off. The unit has been completely replaced once, only for the problem to continue. The defective door locks and window regulator was a result of wiring issue bcm and door latch assembly. I have filed a lemon law suit against chrysler and bill luke, only to be declined as they state it was all within warranty. The vehicle is not worth nearly what i owe on it and has a huge list of repairs that would reflect negatively on carfax in the event of trade or resale. I have attached a summary of repairs, but have additional documentation, if needed.
