Description of the problem | The engine on my car was stalling and it died in the middle of a busy road. Thankfully, it happened in the turning lane so i didn't get hit. Thought it was the battery, so we bought and new one and had it replaced. The check engine light came on after the battery was replaced and the car engine would just turn and stall and would not start. Had to tow my car to the dealership. I called and there were no recalls listed for my vin, but i saw a chrysler recall s89 that was for 2016 dodge journeys for engine stalling and would need the camshaft or crankshaft sensor replaced. It affects 2016 dodge journeys manufactured may 9, 2016 to july 15, 2016. My 2016 dodge journey was manufactured on july 11, 2016. Had diagnostics ran (at my expense) and the crank sensor needs to be replaced. Chrysler was contacted and is giving me the runaround to fixing the issue all because the recall is not on my vin. |
