| Description of the problem | I had my vehicle electrical and brakes cut out 3 times (almost in an accident twice). I spoke to a dealership near me 3 times and one time they tried to replicate it. They said they did not know what caused it. Through searching on this site, i found that it was a common problem and a recall (g25-reprogram tipm-engine stall) to fix it. The dealership played dumb to the issue until proof was shown, but still would not fix it because my vin# did not match recall specific list. Chrysler also would not ok them to fix it (ref#16730876) because i did not have the right vin#, eventhough it is the right model, year, symptoms, etc. Chrysler did not care that it was a safety issue and that it could be solved. I was told to try to replicate it for the dealership. Concerned for safety, i went back to the dealership where i bought it. They instantly knew about the issue described and reprogrammed the tipm with no charge (they obviously understood the danger). Chrysler needs to expand their recall list and change its policy on such a dangerous situation. Luckily there was some humanity still around at the place where i bought it. |
