| Description of the problem | While driving noticed windows, sunroof, radio, seats, air conditioning systems where not operating at all. Then airbag light came on, along with service four wheel drive system warning indicator came on. Tried restarting and resetting systems but had no luck. Had a friend bring other key fob and all systems but four wheel drive were normal for remainder of fifteen mile trip. Upon notifying dealership about recall notice received for transfer case programming. They assured my family it would solve all problems. Being an honest mechanic that i am, i took there word. Two weeks later same problems and was getting worse fuel mileage then before programming.(6 mpg less) i had to leave work to take commander back to dealership. They said programming didn't program. After leaving returned to work and decided to test four wheel drive. Same results, service four wheel system light and four low didn't work. Returned third time four low worked for one week but radio completely stopped producing sound. Now they say i'm out of my ten thousand mile programming warranty. I would rather have old programming back at least then i could use four low and it didn't shift into neutral when i let off throttle. Very worried about families safety. Please help! |
