| Description of the problem | My 2011 jeep compass that i bought new for $23,000. 00 has 56,000 miles and wouldn't start. It is not reliable. Many times i had a loss of power. Had it towed to the dealership and they charged me $900. 00 to fix it. They said i needed a new totally integrated power module. They said that my computer wasn't telling the engine to start and that was why all the lights were on in the dash but the car wouldn't start and that was also why i had a total loss of power. I spent the money to fix it at the dealership. Not a week later i had the same problem!! I just spent $900. 00 to fix 3 yr old jeep that i bought new foe 23 grand, so i would have something reliable for my 20 yr old daughter to drive while she was away at college and all that money was for nothing as my kid has a piece of junk that breaks down all the time. I looked online and saw all the problems that people are having with their jeeps. And saw how chrysler still hasn't done a recall. Please look into this. I lost alot of money on a car that is worthless i cannot have my daughter drive an unsafe car. I will have to sell it. Please look into this asap. It's just not right that this large corp won't stand behind their product. [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6). |
