| Description of the problem | I filed my second complaint on 07/14/2014 component(s): electronic stability control , unknown or other date of incident: 06/28/2014 nhtsa id number: 10610308 on 10/22 i transferred my jeep transmission into neutral to tow behind our rv. When i took my foot off the brake the jeep electronic fdcm threw it into 4wd and it lurched forward almost hitting our rv and my husband who was working on hooking up the vehicle. I warned your office in january and again in july that this was a safety issue but had no idea it could do this!! I was concerned about needing 4wd and not having it. Now i am concerned about our physical safety. Nothing has been done to make chrysler fiat step up, own up the n23 debacle that caused this issue and fix it. They must be held accountable and fix this before someone is injured or killed. Please do not ignore this complaint and just another jeep owner complaining about the n23 recall. This is a serious safety issue!!!! |
