 Description of the problemMy vehicle is having issues starting/stalling, and sounds like the water pump and/or alternator is failing. I went to the dealership and they said this is all tied to p54/nhtsa 14v-530. The tipm parts are not available to fix this issue, and have not been available since i received the first recall notice back in october 2014. The dealership said the parts are not going to be available for weeks, possibly months. I called jeep/chrysler and they also said that is the cause of my problems and they have no date that recall replacement/correction parts will be available. I asked them what i should do since i'm driving a vehicle that doesn't want to start (takes multiple attempts), that stalls out, and that other components under the hood are being affected. They said they will not cover any towing, or rental costs, and had no guidance on what to do besides "good luck". This is a serious issue, i can become stranded, the car could stall (potentially while driving and this car is always on highway high speed driving), and i now have other parts under the hood that this issue is taxing (alternator, battery, water pump, and i could only imagine what else). What am i supposed to do that i'm forced to drive a vehicle with a recall that is not safe to drive? I can't even pay to get this fixed, there is no solution at this time. I don't understand how the vehicle is not recalled entirely and taken off the road, or that if people are experiencing this issue there is no recourse. No free towing, no rental cars ready, no ability to trade in or buy a new vehicle. Nothing. I'm not sure what to do next, get a lawyer? Contact bbb? Please let me know as i don't see how this is legal, i'm being forced to drive a vehicle with a manufacturing defect that is dangerous. Thank you [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.

    Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
