| Description of the problem | About 3 weeks ago my car started stalling out on me out of nowhere, i took it to a mechanic so they could try to diagnose the problem, they thought it was the battery so i bought a new one( $183). 2 days later the car started stalling out on me again while driving on the freeway a cop had to push my car out of the way because i was blocking traffic and in an unsafe location, i had to get it towed ($80) & took it to a different mechanic to diagnose the problem ($198) they said my car had a safety recall due to the crankshaft/camshaft sensor they recommended that i should take it to the dealership because that is the manufacturers fault and chrysler will fix it for free. When i went to the dealership they said my car does not qualify and that i would have to rediagnose my car for $200 and pay $540 for them to fix this issue which i am not at fault for. I asked if i would be able to get a rental through them they said i would have to pay out of pocket for it. I started a case with chrysler on 07/29 and am still waiting on the specialist to review this. I am frustrated. Every day that goes by is another day that i have to figure out how to get to work whether it be asking for a ride or paying for a rental out of pocket. I would understand if i got in a wreck and the sensor messed up i would pay for it myself no questions asked. All i |
