I purchased my car and not 3 months later things started to break. Every time I turn the wheel too sharp the car will die. This means if I go around a sharp curve, back out of a parking spot, pull into a parking spot, etc, my car will randomly die. I took it to the repair shop where they did miscellaneous things to "fix" it, charging me $1,500, which for a single mother, was a LOT of money. I checked DaimlerChryslers site, which said there was a recall, but the customer service agent stated that my car had been fixed already and I couldn't do anything about it now. They did update the fuel pump software, which fixed the car for about 2 months, but it started happening again. My car has been doing this 9 years now. NINE! Not a thing Chrysler will do about it. On top of it, my gas pedal sticks, my car dies if I am driving slow (in a school zone) and not pushing the gas a lot, my car creaks like it's rusted underneath, and it's only a 2005. This is ridiculous Chrysler. I cannot afford a new car. I have 2 kids that I am raising by myself on a $10/hr job. This car is my ONLY transportation, and I don't have another $2,000 to shell out on it, when the dang car itself is only work $1,300 KBB.
