THE SUBFRAME / ENGINE CRADLE OF MY 20008 DODGE AVENGER IS TOTALLY RUSTED OUT WITH BIG HOLES IN IT. IT'S SO BRITTLE YOU CAN EASILY PUT A SCREW DRIVER THROUGH WHAT'S LEFT. THIS WAS DISCOVERED BY BELLE TIRE WHEN I WAS GETTING MY TIRES ROTATED. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER SINCE IT WAS NEW. THIS CAR WAS BROUGHT FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND INSPECTION EVERY 3,000 MILES SINCE NEW AT GOLLING CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM BLOOMFIELD HILLS, MI. THE CAR WAS ALSO PURCHASED FROM THIS SAME DEALERSHIP.

WHEN FILLING UP TANK THE TANK EJECTS ABOUT A QUART OF GASOLINE WHEN FINISHED PUMPING GAS. EVEN WHEN TRYING TO GO SLOW AT THE END. THE GASOLINE "BURPS" OUT ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE, THE OPERATOR AND GROUND. THIS ISN'T SAFE BECAUSE THE POTENTIALLY HOT ROTOR IS DIRECTLY UNDERNEATH THE FILL PORT MIGHT START A FIRE WHILE THE OPERATOR IS DOUSED WITH FUEL. *TR

THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT HAS BEEN INTERMITTENTLY TURNING ON IN MY INSTRUMENT CLUSTER FOR OVER 1 YEAR. THIS MEANS THAT MY AIRBAG IS DISABLED AND WILL NOT PROTECT ME AND MY FAMILY IN A CRASH DUE TO SOME AIR BAG CONTROLLER SELF DIAGNOSED DEFECT. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR IN TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY INCORRECTLY DIAGNOSED IT AS A LOOSE CONNECTOR, CHARGED ME FOR THE REPAIR, ONLY TO HAVE THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT COME BACK ON, DISABLING MY AIR BAG PROTECTION IN A CRASH. THE LATEST DEALER VISIT ON OCTOBER 22, 2011 RESULTED IN THE DEALER DIAGNOSING THE PROBLEM AS A DEFECTIVE AIR BAG. THE DEALER CONTACTED CHRYSLER HEADQUARTERS TO SEE IF THEY WOULD COVER THE REPAIR. CHRYSLER HEADQUARTERS REFUSED TO COVER THE REPAIR AND THE DEALER WANTS TO CHARGE ME $500 FOR A NEW AIR BAG. I CALLED CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE 1-800-992-1997 ON OCTOBER 24 2011 AND SPOKE WITH ADAM (NOT WILLING TO PROVIDE LAST NAME) AND HE RECOMMENDED THAT I AGAIN CONTACT THE DEALER. I TOLD ADAM AT CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE THAT THE DEALER TOLD ME TO CALL THIS NUMBER AND THAT EACH REPRESENTATIVE OF CHRYSLER (DEALER & CUSTOMER SERVICE) ASKING ME TO CALL THE OTHER WAS NOT VERY HELPFUL. AT THIS POINT I DON'T KNOW WHAT I AM GOING TO DO. MY AIR BAG DOESN'T WORK BECAUSE OF AN UNKNOWN DEFECT, CHRYSLER REFUSES TO REPAIR ITS DEFECTIVE AIR BAG SYSTEM, AND I AM UNCERTAIN THAT EVEN IF I HAVE IT REPAIRED AT MY EXPENSE FOR $500 THE AIR BAG MAY NOT WORK DUE TO SEVERAL INCORRECT ATTEMPTS TO REPAIR THIS VEHICLE IN THE PAST.

CATALYTIC CONVERTER SHOWS AS AN ERROR MESSAGE AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND WILL NEED LIKELY REPLACEMENT. THE HEATER DOES NOT WORK ON THE CAR, LIKELY DUE TO THE HEATER CORE.

AFTER I GOT ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD I TRIED TO START IT BACK UP A FEW TIMES AND IT FINALLY STARTED BACK UP BUT IT WOULDN'T STOP TURNING OVER UNTIL I CUT IT BACK OFF. THEN I TRIED TO START IT AGAIN AND IT STARTED BUT EVERY LIGHT ON MY DASH COME ON. I PUT IT IN DRIVE AND TRIED TO DRIVE IT HOME BUT IT WOULDNT GO OVER 15 MPH. I HAD SEVERAL VEHICLES RUN UP ON THE BACK OF MY VEHICLE AND I WAS ACTUALLY AFRAID FOR MY SAFETY. WHEN I GOT IT HOME I SHUT IT OFF AND IT WOULDNT START BACK UP. I THEN TRIED TO START IT BACK UP THE NEXT MORNING AND THE ELECTRICAL THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT COME ON AND I STILL CANT GO OVER 15 MPH. THIS SHOULD BE A SAFETY RECALL BECAUSE I COULDVE BEEN HURT BAD OR WORSE.
