Description of the problem | In august 2016 my clutch pedal stuck to the floor on the 405 freeway in cagoing 65mph. This causing no gear change and control over vehicle, chrysler repaired the master cylinder under the power train warranty. (they said this wouldn't happen again and the car was safe) well the clutch did fail on the way to vegas on the freeway going 65mph again i lost control of the gears and the clutch stuck to the floor. Chrysler told me it was a worn out clutch and they wouldn't replace the parts or buy back the car under lemon law. I had an independent mechanic look at the car in glendora ca. He said it's not a worn out clutch, but the clutch has broken due to a leaking slave cylinder leaking over the components. This is a manufacturer defect. And has had various court cases against them due to this issue. The car is a so unsafe and a time bomb. I have just had a new born baby and do not want her anywhere near this car. |
