NHTSA complaint: 2008 DODGE MAGNUM — SERVICE BRAKES
CASE DESCRIPTION I HAD A RECALLS ON MY 2008 DODGE MAGNUM FOR AIRBAGS, AND IGNITION. HAD IT TOWED TO COMMINWEALTH DODGE CAUSE IT STOPPED RUNNING WHILE DRIVING. THEY REPLACED THE IGNITION, AND SUPPOSEDLY REPLACED AIRBAGS ALSO. THE IGNITION ALLOWED THE CAR TO THEN RESTART. HOWEVER WHEN I WENT TO PICK THE CAR UP IT RAN REALLY BADLY, AND HAD ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS IN THE DASH ON. I CONFRONTED THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT THIS BEFORE EVEN LEAVING THE LOT. THEY TOLD ME I WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT. I TOWED IT TO A DIFFERENT DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY FOUND THE MAIN WIRING HARNESS PULLED APART UNDER THE DASH. AFTER I PICKED THE CAR UP FROM THEM I'VE HAD THE WORST ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS IMAGINABLE. I'VE BEEN STRANDED IN ELLENSBURG WA FOR 3 MONTHS, THE BATTERY DIED EVERY 3-4 WEEKS. FCA WILL NOT EVEN RETURN ANY OF MY CALLS, AND THE DEALERSHIP JUST TRIED TO SELL ME A NEW CAR WHEN I CONTACT THEM. PLEASE HELP
