WHILE MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK ON 3/14/17, HE STOPPED TO HELP A FELLOW OFFICER THAT WAS STRANDED, HE GOT OUT OF THE VEHICLE AND WAS HELPING THE OTHER OFFICER HE SMELLED SMOKE AND LOOKED BACK AND SAW THAT IT WAS OUR CAR ON FIRE. THE FIRE OCCURRED IN THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE DOOR PANEL, HE WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE HOME,AFTER HE THOUGHT THE FIRE WAS OUT. THE NEXT DAY HE DROVE THE CAR TO THE AUTO SHOP,WHILE ON THE WAY THERE THE FIRE RESTARTED,HE WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO THE BODY SHOP. THE VEHICLE SAT AT THE DEALER SHIP FOR 13 OR 14 DAYS BEFORE WE FINALLY GOT THE OKAY FROM CHRYSLER TO FIX IT. THE MECAHANICAL PART WAS FIXED, HOWEVER THE SEVER SMELL FROM THE SMOKE,BURNT RUBBER,AND PLASTIC WAS NOT. WE DID TAKE THE VEHICLE BACK,AND THE DEALERSHIP DID DO EVERYTHING THEY COULD TO GET THE SMELL OUT, THE SMELL IS STILL THERE. THIS IS THE ONLY VEHICLE WE HAVE.SO WE HAVE HAD NO CHOICE, BUT TO DRIVE IT. MY BOYS BOTH HAVE SEVERE ASTHMA AND ALLERGIES, SO RIDING IN A CAR WITH A CONSTANT ODOR OF SMOKE AND BURNT STUFF IS EXTREMELY UNHEALTHY. MY HUSBAND HAS ALSO HAD A COUGH FROM THE SMOKE INHAILATION THAT OCCURRED, HE IS CURRENTLY COUGHING STUFF UP OUTTA HIS LUNGS. I HAVE MADE AT LEAST 20-25 PHONE CALLS TO CHRYSLER, AND HAVE NOT RECEIVED ONE BACK, WE HAVE NOT EVEN RECEIVED THE REPORT FROM THE FIRE INSPECTOR THAT THEY SENT. I WOULD REALLY JUST LIKE TO GET SOME ANSWERS AND KNOW MY RIGHTS. ANY AND ALL HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

DRIVERS HEAD REST DEPLOYMENT . SITTING IN VEHICLE AT A STANDSTILL IN PARKING LOT. STEPPED ON BRAKE TO START ENGINE AND DRIVERS HEAD REST DEPLOYED, HITTING DRIVER IN BACK OF HEAD AND FORCING HEAD INTO STEERING WHEEL. NO MAJOR INJURY, OTHER THAN HEADACHE AND BRUISE ON FOREHEAD. THE VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN INVOLVED IN REAR ACCIDENT. GATHERED CAR FAX INFORMATION TO PROVE NO DAMAGE. MILEAGE APPROX 39,000. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM REPUTABLE DEALER (ENTERPRISE CAR SALES - SAN ANTONIO) ON DECEMBER 28, 2016. CURRENT DRIVER HAS NOT BEEN INVOLVED IN REAR-END COLLISIONS, BUMPS OR DAMAGE TO REAR OF VEHICLE. DEALER CLAIMS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR VEHICLE. ORIGINAL FACTORY WARRANTY EXPIRED AT 36,000 MILES. LOCAL DODGE DEALERSHIP CLAIMED NOT COVERED AND NOT A FACTORY DEFECT. INSURANCE COMPANY CLAIMS NOT A COVERED DAMAGE, SO NOT RESPONSIBLE. THIS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A SAFETY HAZARD. TRIED TO RESET HEADREST, BUT WILL NOT GO BACK INTO PLACE. CURRENTLY HAVE IT HELD TOGETHER WITH A LEATHER BELT. CONCERNS WHETHER THE PASSENGER HEADREST WILL DEPLOY WITHOUT WARNING. I FEEL THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD REPLACE THE HEADREST AT NO CHARGE TO THE VEHICLE OWNER.

THE PLASTIC AROUND THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SEATS HAS BROKEN OFF EXPOSING SHARP METAL, AS WELL AS BINDS THE SEATBELT UP PREVENTING PROPER USE. THE SEATS WERE USED AS THEY SHOULD BE, THE PLASTIC CLIP THAT LOOKS TO HAVE SECURED IT IS TOO FAR TO THE SIDE TO WITHSTAND A DRIVER OR PASSENGER GETTING OUT OF THE VEHICLE IF THEY TURN TO THE SIDE. I WAS TALKING WITH A PERSON AT WORK ABOUT THIS ISSUE AS THEY OWN A JOURNEY AND HAVE THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM. OUR VEHICLE ONLY HAD 13K MILES WHEN THIS HAPPENED, SO IT'S NOT AN OLD PLASTIC ISSUE. I MANAGED TO CUT MY LEG WHEN WEARING SHORTS DUE TO THIS ISSUE, SO IT IS A SAFETY PROBLEM.

ABS....BRAKING FAILURE....MY BRAKES FAILED ON 12/31/2015 SHORTLY BEFORE 3PM, I WAS LEAVING A SHOPPING CENTER PARKING LOT, A CAR WAS BACKING OUT, SO I WENT TO HIT MY BRAKES, AND THEY WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITHOUT STOPPING OR SLOWING DOWN, I TRIED A SECOND TIME BUT STILL NOTHING HAPPENED, SO I AS I GOT CLOSER TO THE CAR, I VEERED AWAY FROM IT AND BUMPED A POLE TO STOP MY CAR, I WAS GOING BETWEEN 5-7 MILES PER HOUR, AND THE VEHICLE WOULDN'T STOP. MY VECHICLE HAD FRONT END DAMAGE TO THE BUMPER AND THE HOOD, AND NOT SURE IF THE BUMPER OR THE HOOD PRESSED AGAINST THE RADIATOR, BUT THAT NEEDED REPAIR AS WELL. MY INSURANCE COMPANY TOOK CARE OF THE DAMAGE, I LATER FOUND OUT WHILE MY VEHICLE WAS IN THE SHOP GETTING BODY WORK REPAIRED, THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY ABS, SHORTLY AFTER I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE IN THE MAIL. NOT SURE IF THAT WAS THE REASON WHY MY BRAKES FAILED, BUT THEY ISN'T ANY OTHER EXPLANATION, MY VEHICLE WAS ONLY A LITTLE OVER 3 MONTHS OLD, AND SHOULDN'T HAVE HAD THAT PROBLEM. AFTER THE BODYSHOP COMPLETED THE BODY DAMAGE THE INSURANCE COMPANY TOWED IT TO THE CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED AND THEY REFUSED THE VEHICLE STATING THEY WOULD ONLY FIX IT IF I ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ACCIDENT, AND THAT I HAD TO PUT IT IN WRITING FOR THE INSURANCE COMPANY, SO THAT THEY INSURANCE COMPANY WONT MAKE THEM REIMBURSE THEM FOR THE DAMAGES THAT THEY ALREADY PAID FOR. (WHICH DIDN'T MAKE ANY SENSE TO ME.. I AM STILL WAITING FOR SOMEBODY TO ACCEPT THE RESPONSIBILITY AS TO WHY I DIDN'T HAVE ANY BRAKES, AND WHY THE INSURANCE COMPANY JUST DIDN'T HAVE THE REPAIR SHOP FIX THE BRAKES AS WELL. ...EVEN AFTER ALL THE FRONT END DAMAGE I'M STILL CONFUSED AS TO WHY THE AIRBAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY. MAYBE THERE IS A DEFECT THERE AS WELL.
