description: ON NOV 9, 2005 I DROVE INTO MY DRIVE WAY AND STARTED TURNING TO PULL INTO THE GARAGE. MY 2005C WITH HEMI SUDDENLY SURGED FORWARD HITTING MY DAUGHTER'S 2004 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. HER CAR HAD DAMAGE ON THE REAR BUMPER AND IT WAS KNOCKED ABOUT 15 OR 20 FEET. THE FRONT OF MY CAR WAS TORN UP. THE AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY BUT, THANKFULLY NO ONE WAS HURT. I HAVE CONTACTED CHRYSLER ABOUT THE SURGE AND THEY STATED THEY HAVE NOT HAD ANY COMPLAINTS. I FOUND ONE ON THIS WEBSITE ABOUT THE CAR SURGING. THIS WILL EFFECT MY INSURANCE AND HAS BEEN A PROBLEM FOR MY FAMILY WITH TWO CARS HAVING TO BE REPAIRED. I REPORTED TO CHRYSLER THAT TWICE THAT DAY THE CAR HAD MADE A REVVING SOUND BUT HAD NOT SURGED FORWARD. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND NOW MAKES ME UNSURE ABOUT DRIVING THE CAR AGAIN. WE BOUGHT THIS CAR NEW FROM BENCHMARK CHRYSLER IN JANUARY. THE CAR IS BEING REPAIRED AT TRUSSVILLE MAZDA WHO DOES REPAIR WORK FOR BENCHMARK. THEY TOLD US WHEN IT IS REPAIRED THEY WILL TAKE IT TO BENCHMARK TO BE CHECKED OUT FOR DEFECTS. AFTER READING THE COMPLAINTS ON THIS MESSAGE BOARD I AM NOT SURE THAT WILL BE OF ANY VALUE BUT, I AM GOING TO GIVE THEM THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT UNTIL I HEAR FROM THEM. DOES ANYONE KNOW OF A RECALL OR SIMILAR HAPPENINGS? *JB
