Description of the problem | 2500 hd outdoor edition, 2014. I purchased this truck with 7 miles. At 371 miles the brake sensors were staying engaged and i had a thick layer of brake dust coating the rims and burning brakes. The pass. Side dash was falling apart and the carpet was shredding on that side also. They adjusted the sensors to read the same pressures inside and outside of the brake drum. Reset and reprogrammed many computer sensors. Then my key fob quit working, rear sliding window and tire monitor systems all stopped while i was traveling the mountain pass at 75 mph. From sept, 14, 14, when i unlock the truck with the key every alarm goes off and will not shut off until i start the truck. I could not get the dealership to order my parts or fix my truck so, in january i got an abs recall at this point i called chrysler corp and filed a consumer complaint with their repair team. They contacted the dealership with my concerns. Since, they have changed/reset almost every sensor in this vehicle. From the navigation system, the radio system, they abs etc. Key fob bad still, (3fixes). Computer still malfunctioning badly (6th, fix). The locking unit went out of the sidebox toolboxes, the driver door control panel went out. Odometer reads out at 12 miles over for every 28 traveled. I have documentation and records for 7100 miles, odometer reads over 12,000. Chrysler corp. Has been involved since jan 2015 but refuse to allow me to speak with anyone with authority to discuss lemon laws. Say no such department exists. It goes back in mon. 2-16-15 for yet another round of repairs. |
