STEERING

Potential Consequences:

IN MOTION OVER 45MPH, THE JEEP WILL SUDDENLY EXPERIENCE A STEERING WOBBLE THAT CAUSES ALMOST COMPLETE LACK OF CONTROL. TO FIX THE ISSUE, SPEED MUST BE DECREASED TO <10MPH WHICH CAN BE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS DUE TO TRAFFIC AND HIGH SPEEDS. THE STEERING WHEEL IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO CONTROL. PROBLEM IS REPRODUCIBLE ON ALL ROADS AND IN ALL CONDITIONS. I WOULD ESTIMATE THAT THE DRIVER IS LEFT WITH 10% CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, AND LEFT IN A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION.

UPON DELIVERY ON LOT, DRIVER DOOR WOULD NOT CLOSE COMPLETELY. SALESMAN ROBERTS STATED TO US THAT ALL JEEPS ARE QUIRKY; DOORS MUST BE SLAMMED TO CLOSE. DURING 400-MILE HIGHWAY DRIVE HOME, DOOR AJAR LIGHT CAME ON AND HAD TO RE-CLOSE DOOR REPEATEDLY DURING DRIVE. REPORTED PROBLEM TO (ABSENTEE) OWNERS HARRY/SCOTT KESEL, CHRYSLER CORPORATE STEVE STANDER, AND 1-800-JEEP REP D. PITTMAN; ALSO BROUGHT CAR TO KELLY JEEP SERVICE (LYNNFIELD, MA).

NO FACTORY OR ZONE AREA MANAGER HAS INSPECTED, NOR HAS CANANDAIGUA DEALER OWNER, WHO PRACTICED OTHER FALSE AND DECEPTIVE SALES TACTICS ON ME. DEALERSHIP OWNER SCOTT KESEL WILL NOT TAKE BACK THE CAR OR COMPENSATE LOSS OF $6,000 FOR A TRADE-IN. HE BLAMES JEEP FACTORY; JEEP BLAMES DEALERSHIP. BOTH CLAIM THAT THE OTHER PARTY IS RESPONSIBLE. CHRYSLER CORPORATE REP SAID CORPORATE DOESN'T SPEAK TO OR INFLUENCE DEALER OWNER'S RESPONSE TO CUSTOMERS -- HANDS OFF. DEALER SAID HE'LL DO WHAT EVER CHRYSLER DIRECTS HIM TO DO. I AM PAYING FOR A CAR THAT I DON'T HAVE AND CAN'T USE.
