| Description of the problem | Took jeep in for recall completed some odd miles down road 4wd low would not engage took back to dealer after internet findings of a bad recall( they make some by pass software instead of actually fixing the computer chip that cracks in transfer case) anyway they reset worked for a week maybe and again low didn't work anymore back to dealer they had new software jeep was reflashed on way home service 4wd system light on all the time took back to the dealer they reflashed it again n told me they'd have to contact chrysler if it happened again went out started jeep lights back on and back thru the door into dealer now i gotta wait for some star technicians to come look at it who nos how long that'll take. Fighting with them over this recall for years is ridiculous if they woulda just fixed it the right way i'm sure these issues wouldn't happen. O and also the interior door handles are junk plastic n break n will cause u to be unable to safely exit in a fire!! This recall has takin to long to get fixed n chrysler should do something about it!! |
