Description of the problem | While driving 60 miles per hour along the southbound express lane of garden state parkway my new 2020 jeep grand cherokee started shaking. Within seconds, i pulled on to the grassy area next to the fast lane where my vehicle died. After getting towed to the dealership, i was notified that my new car with 329 miles on it is in need of a new engine, new batteries and new starter. Of notable concern on the repair order is the following: "what is present inside intake manifold is pieces of metal." while the case is not yet closed, chrysler informed me they intend to fix the vehicle under warranty and return it to me. This is a serious safety concern and i fear the blown engine, dead batteries and starter could have caused additional, unrecognized damage. |
