| Description of the problem | While driving my vehicle the gauges started to go up and down, the radio went on and off, the turn signals were interrupted, all the idiot lights came on and went out leaving the engine light on. I called my garage and found out the front control modular is going. There was a recall on 2008's but my vehicle was not included due to manufacture date. My vehicle is only 4 years old and was used previously by diamond chrysler. I have not received any recalls. According to them my vehicle is clean. Now i will have to pay close to $1,000. 00 to get it fixed. If a recall goes out it should go out to all vehicles in case one such as my vehicle gets missed. |
