| Description of the problem | I owned a 2008 jeep wrangler unlimited, in 2010 the jeep started not wanting to crank off and on, of course when it was in the shop it would crank everytime, except the last visit it had and was there almost 2 weeks then they were doing the process of elimination still not knowing what to do. I contacted chrylser's corp. Office many times, they even provided me a rental car on one of the times the jeep was in the shop, this jeep stayed in the shop more then in my yard in 2010. The last visit was all i could handle, chrylser corp was not going to help me anymore, they simple did not care, the service dept.'s that the jeep was at they tried everything they thought possible, battery was good, so they changed out the battery cables said it was fixed, within a week same thing happens, i take it back, they replace the starter said that was the issue, needless to say within 2 weeks i was back with the same problem, the last time they said this might fix the jeep, if not, bring it back we will try something else, experiment i guess. I once again contacted chrylser corp. Office was treated as though i was a problem to them, i told them i was just giving up and trading the jeep in, which was one of thte hardest decisions that i have made, i loved my jeep, but the lemon that i had was just too much to keep paying for and catching rides to work since the jeep was in the shop all those times except the one time they paid for rental. I have traded the jeep but i still follow the concerns and see now, i was not the only one with the problem, of course, too late my jeep is gone now. |
