 Description of the problemWhile driving my 2011 dodge durango to the store the check engine and battery light appeared, i drove the vehicle to o'reilly to have them test it, it showed the alternator was bad, i purchased a new alternator from them and within 1/4 mile of leaving o'reilly my dash lights started flashing windshield wipers started going and the car died in the middle of an intersection. Some passer-by's helped push my car into a parking lot where my husband met me and installed the new alternator, still the car wouldn't do anything. Had it towed back to the house and kept it on a charger (advice from the tow truck driver) and still the next day nothing, meanwhile researching the problem online and saw this was a common issue among dodge drivers. I called dodge and they said my particular alternator had not been recalled and there was nothing they could do. The car said key not detected the following morning after being charged all night. I then had it towed to a mechanic, they said the pcm and the battery were fried and had to tow it to dodge for the new pcm. So a new alternator, new pcm and battery, then finally my car was recalled 8/2017. I was sent a recall notice stating if i had already had it repaired i was eligible for reimbursement and to send in my receipts and i would have payment in 60 days. At day 78 i called the fca assistance center and was told they had everything to call back in a week, i called back in a week they wanted more documents which i had already sent, but uploaded again, i called then every other day following up just to be told yesterday my request is denied. They are saying that there is no proof that the failed alternator caused the pcm and battery to fry, so they are not reimbursing me for anything. I am still waiting for a manager to call me back wishful thinking out $1779 for now
