STEERING

Potential Consequences:

VEHICLE IS IMPOSSIBLE TO KEEP ON THE ROAD. STEERING HAS SO MUCH PLAY I HAVE ALMOST STRUCK THE GUARD RAILS AND/OR OTHER ADJACENT VEHICLES. ESPECIALLY ACUTE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. FCA HAS REFUSED TO ADMIT A SEVERE SAFETY ISSUE EXISTS DESPITE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ON BLOGS AND ONLINE FORUMS. THERE IS 1 - 2 INCHES OR MORE OF PLAY IN STEERING THAT REQUIRES FATIGUING ATTENTION WHILE DRIVING TO KEEP THE VEHICLE IN ITS LANE. SHOCKING FCA HAS NOT HAD A RECALL DESPITE ONLINE POSTS WITH FIXES / ADJUSTMENTS TO THE STEERING BOX THAT HAVE SOLVED THE ISSUE. DEALERS REFUSE TO MAKE THE ADJUSTMENT BECAUSE IT I NOT AUTHORIZED BY FCA. PLEASE GET INVOLVED BEFORE SERIOUS ACCIDENTS OCCUR. I JUST SAW A RECALL WAS ISSUED FOR STEERING ON THIS MODEL DUE TO POOR FACTORY WELDS TO THE TRACK BAR. THIS IS A SEPARATE BUT STILL SERIOUS SAFETY CONTROL ISSUE. THIS HAPPENS (NOTICEABLE) TRAVELING ABOVE 30 MILES PER HOUR. FCA IS IN DENIAL -HELP!!! THEY WILL NOT MAKE THE ADJUSTMENT AT THE DEALER.

Potential Consequences:

VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE WITH THE MAJORITY OF ALL WELDS THAT CONNECT PARTS/FRAME/BODY. THEY ARE EXTREMELY POROUS WHICH WILL CAUSE THE WELDS TO FAIL OVER TIME DUE TO RUSTING FROM THE INSIDE OUT, SOME ARE VERY VERY THIN WHICH WILL CAUSE FAILURE JUST FROM EVERY DAY USE, AND SOME ARE NOT EVEN CONNECTING THE PART TO THE FRAME/BODY WHICH WILL CAUSE DEADLY FAILURE WHEN THE PART COMES OFF FROM SHEARING. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THIS VEHICLE, AND THIS IS THE ONLY MODE OF TRANSPORTATION I HAVE. I HAVE A 3 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WHO ALSO HAS TO RIDE IN THIS VEHICLE. IT IS NOT OKAY THAT OUR LIVES ARE BEING PUT AT RISK ANY TIME WE HAVE TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE WITH KNOWING THESE WELDS COULD FAIL AT ANY TIME. I HAVE CONTACTED SEVERAL FCA REPS, AND THE DEALERSHIP AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. I HAVE MULTIPLE, MULTIPLE PICTURES OF THESE WELDS, HOWEVER I WILL ATTACH A FEW TO THIS SO YOU CAN GET AN IDEA. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE, AND IT SHOULD NOT REQUIRE SOMEONE DYING BEFORE ANYTHING GETS DONE ABOUT THIS. *BF..... UPDATED 10/30/18*JB
