| Description of the problem | I was driving down the road doing 40 with 2 of my children when i lost all power control of my vehicle in 90 degree weather. I ended up on someones lawn and pulled up on my emergency brake to stop my car, only way. I ended up being towed home. Car started next day. Took to dealership they said it was throttle control sensor which they stated wasn't covered under warranty. Just this week i took to get its first inspection since purchasing and it failed for emissions. I was told by inspector this make and model had been failing for fuel system failure and to contact dealership. I contacted dealership who stated this is the first they're hearing of this issue and i wasn't able to schedule an appointment until next week and said that there may be a charge for me to fix???? I have also had to replace both rear hub bearings. I called the jeep manufacturer who was absolutely useless as well and said certain things are covered under warranty and this may be one that isn't. This is absolutely ludicrous that i have a 4 year old car that failed its first inspection. I have a claim with them. |
