...So tonight, i may have driven my Jeep for the last time. As you may or may not have heard, my Jeep is a former TE vehicle that is very quickly succumbing to its short life as a track day car, driven by the best drivers that Chrysler has yearly access to... But tonight it all changed.
Visiting my dad, my 6 month old daughter and I were on the way home doing about 72mph when my front end; for loss of a better set of words... Took a shit. The ESP BAS and TC lights came on all at once, the truck lost 5mph instantly and sounded like the front differential carrier has failed. It howls at all speeds and at 1030 on the side of an expressway... I had to stop and get out of my Jeep... In the emergency lane.. Among the broken glass and tire shrapnel, feet away from speeding traffic while i made sure there was no loss of fluid (or parts) hanging down underneath. Then I had to make a call for an escort home for me and my daughter... And had to continue the rest of the trip on side streets.. The sound just gets worse...
Now Chrysler has put me and my family in harms way. Im not fortunate enough to have enjoyed driving the crap out of my Jeep as a lot of you have... I wasnt even able to fit a catch can and CAI before it started to die.. A short block, or differential at a time.
Chrysler started my claim yesterday, turned it over to SRT today, and this happened tonight. I dont think just fixing my Jeep "Under Warranty" is acceptable. I have until Monday to vacate my current residence and move out of state. This is not an option. I HAD made an appointment to bring in my Jeep the morning I got into Las Vegas... But it didnt make it.
If Jeeps answer is unacceptable tomorrow, then an attorney on retainer would love to see this. And get the answer that I am looking for. I dont want to come off as a litigous sort of person, but the knuckle dragging pace is not somethig I am willing to put up with any longer.
Chrysler still will not accept any sort of culpability for selling me a TE vehicle. They KNOW but refuse tobadmit fault. My VIN AC148927 is entered in the system everytime Chrysler farts on my car. Not only that, my carfax stated that Chrysler Motor Corporation Auburn Hills, MI. THEY KNOW WHAT THEY DID WITH MY JEEP AND I HAD TO FIND OUT MYSELF. They sold me a vehicle they hoped that they could hide and recirculate. This was a gamble that they made and I ended up losing. They got my 43000 dollars for the Jeep and another 4000 in coverages. I was without my Jeep for almost a month once, and now I may never drive it again. SAD. Really sad. I LOVE MY JEEP. THANK ALL OF YOU ON HERE.
