| Description of the problem | I was driving to work today and all of a sudden i smelled a burning smell in the front of my car and all the lights lit up on my dash and my digital speedometer started going up and down in speed but i was not going any faster or slower. This is not the first time i have smelled something burning in my jeep. I had it in for service on 5/515 and it was there until 6/8/15 for these same kind of problems. All my dealership keeps doing is flashing the software and telling me it is fixed. I no longer feel safe driving my jeep grand cherokee. I have had so many electrical problems that are not getting fixed. My transmission takes so long to shift gears and sometimes gets stuck in neutral while i am driving, my tires constantly feel like they are slipping and i do not feel like i have complete control of the vehicle because of it. I have a six year old child that rides in my jeep everyday and i do not feel safe putting them in it. I have tried to call fca and they refuse to talk to me or help me with a resolution to these problems. I just want to feel safe when i am driving and also to feel safe putting my child in my vehicle and at this point i do not feel safe in my grand cherokee anymore and it is a shame. |
