| Description of the problem | As i was driving to work in the morning, my vehicle stalled completely and i had to put my hazards on in the middle of the left side lane. Luckily, there was no traffic behind me and i was able to remove the key, re-insert the key and the vehicle started up again. I wasn't going fast and there wasn't traffic to cause an accident but this has made me fear overtime i step foot into my vehicle. I'm a working mother and i need my vehicle to transport my family. I bought the jeep from vacaville dodge about a year ago and they failed to mention anything wrong with the vehicle. One month after owning it, i started to receive recall notices. I did take it in as soon as i got 3 in a row. The dealership told me they could fix two issues but one would have to wait until they have the right parts. This took two months before i could get it fixed. Now, i have received an additional 3 recall notices and the dealership is telling me they will add me to a waitlist. The dealership has confirmed that they won't have all the necessary parts/time to fix the recalls for another couple months. My family's lives are in danger so i have chosen to use public transportation which is a huge inconvenience. I bought this vehicle because i've always trusted the dodge, chrysler, and jeep company. I'm making payments on a vehicle that i can't even use because of all these recalls. |
