Defect Description:
UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Potential Consequences:
I received a bubble in my Uconnect infotainment system. After researching this appears to be a major problem. I was advised by my service dealership, Lithia Ram in Santa Rosa, that the bubble will spread across the screen and eventually uncontrollably turn the radio up and down as well as the heater and A/C. This is completely unsafe as it will distract the driver constantly and make matters unsafe to drive. This appears to be a major flaw with these infotainment systems.

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
This vehicle experienced a Diesel EGR Cooler failure, for which there is an open recall by FCA under VB1/NHTSA 19V-757. Repairs were completed at the shop where it had been taken for diagnostics, and subsequently I submitted a reimbursement request to FCA following all guidelines and submitting all documents requested. However, FCA is refusing to honor the recall reimbursement request. They state their reasons below: 1) Vehicle is out of warranty. (Warranty status should have no bearing on a recall repair) 2) Parts replaced are not covered under the recall. (Parts replaced were specifically covered under recall VB1) 3) Repairs were not completed at a dealership. (The reimbursement process was created specifically for repairs completed at other repair centers) The above reasons stated by FCA are not valid, but FCA continues to deny reimbursement. FCA should honor their recall repair commitment and process. This incident leads me to believe FCA is actively engaged in falsely denying reimbursements to customers and their compliance with NHTSA recall oversight should be investigated.

I'm trying to have my daytime running lights enabled for my vehicle, which is a simple request that is done by sending a code to my vehicle. This is a safety feature that can be quickly enabled and I'm having trouble finding a dealership that will enable this, guarantee the work, and get me safely back on the road without charging me $500 for a few minutes of work.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
I took my truck to the dealer Early 2022 for the recall. they couldn't help due to the shortage on the parts. I kept going every month because my truck was stalling. they kept telling me to leave them my email address and they will contact me when they get the parts for the recall. on August 30. I was driving on the freeway. I lost power. my truck couldn't go over 30 then declined to 25 then to 20mph. My truck start heating up really fast. I pulled a side and tow it to the dealer. Dealer stated that my crankshaft was cracked. I truly believe it cracked due to the recall. My high Presure fuel pump was defective and it cause my truck to overheat and crack the engine. I need Help. I ordered another engine which cost me $13,000.00 without the Instulation, now I have to wait till the dealer get an engine and they will charge me the instulation on top it which it will probably end up costing me near to $20,000 This happen all because of Dodge defective part from the recall

Potential Consequences:
I was in an accident, I hit a bale of hay doing 65 mph that a local farmer lost off the back of his feed truck. My air bags DID NOT deploy. I never had any warning lights on my dash warning me to service air bags. Thankfully I wasn’t severely injured and walked away with no more then a sore and bruised body and shaken up nerves.
