POWER TRAIN | 7/15/2017 - SIMPSONVILLE, SC
VEHICLE: 2007 DODGE DAKOTA ST CLUB CAB, 2WD, 3.7L V6, 42 RLE AUTOMATIC TRANS PROBLEM: AT ROAD SPEEDS OF 34-50 MPH THE VEHICLE SHUDDERS, VIBRATES, AND SOUNDS AS THOUGH ON A RUMBLE STRIP. MY RESEARCH INDICATES THAT THE POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE HAS AN ERROR THAT INCORRECTLY TELLS THE TORQUE CONVERTER TO START THE LOCK UP RANGE AT TOO LOW AN RPM, RESULTING IN THE ENGINE AND TORQUE CONVERTER TO NOT BE SYNCHED CORRECTLY. THIS PROBLEM BEGAN SHORTLY AFTER I'D BOUGHT THE TRUCK AT 71,100 MILES. I'M AT 71,500 MILES NOW. THE REMEDY IS AS LITTLE AS REPROGRAMMING THE PCM FLASH TO AS MUCH AS REPLACING THE PCM, THE TORQUE CONVERTER, AND TRANSMISSION. I FEAR THAT THE PROBLEM COULD RESULT IN CATASTROPHIC FAILURE OF THE DRIVE TRAIN COMPONENTS IN A WAY THAT COULD RESULT IN A VEHICLE CRASH. THERE ARE TWO TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS OF WHICH I'M AWARE ON THE MATTER.

AIR BAGS | 3/27/2017 - HUNTINGTON BEACH, CA
I HAVE REPEATEDLY ATTEMPTED TO REPAIR MY DODGE DAKOTA'S RECALL. INITIALLY I CONTACTED HUNTINGTON BEACH CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM AND WAS TOLD THAT MY NAME WOULD BE PLACED ON A LIST AND I WOULD BE CONTACTED. NOTHING! I THEN CONTACTED COURTESY CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM OF ORANGE COUNTY. FINALLY HAD THE FIRST RECALL REPAIRED, BUT NOT THE MARCH 2016 AIR BAG RECALL. I HAVE CALLED AND CONTACTED THE SECOND DEALER SINCE MARCH 2016 TO REPAIR THE AIR BAGS AND HAVE BEEN TOLD EVERY TIME THAT THE DEALER HAS NO PARTS, BUT THAT THEY WILL CALL ME. IT HAS NOW BEEN ONE YEAR...AND I HAVE NEVER BEEN CALLED....BY EITHER DEALER. HELP!!

TAKATA RECALL I CALLED THE DEALER FOR THE RECALL THEY SAY NO PARTS AND IF IM CONCERNED TO PARK THE VEHICLE AND NOT USE IT. HOWEVER THEY DON'T OFFER A RENTAL VEHICLE. I ALSO CALLED CHRYSLER AND SAY THING THEY DON'T WANT TO PROVIDE RENTAL WHEN I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IT WAS WITH THE UNDERSTANDING THAT IT WAS COMPLETE ALL THE SAFETY FEATURES WHERE IN WORKING ORDER KNOW WE DISCOVER THAT'S NOT THE CASE. MANUFACTURE SHOULD REPAIR AND PROVIDE A RENTAL UNTIL THAT HAPPENS.
