I keep getting a navigation map update warning. When i try to update the map data i am told by dodge that the map updates are no longer available. I expect to pay for the updates and the fact that they are not available is causing issues. When currently using the nav system i have found that road exists that are supposed to be on the left road side have changed to the right. This caused sudden lane changes and has the potential of causing accidents, as stated i expect to pay for the updates and not have them available is a safety issue
Just bought the vehicle two months ago and have had to replace multiple things on the vehicle. The first issue was the diming lights and passenger window rolling down while driving along with remote start not working got that fixed now the car wants to turn on when it feels like it. It could be working for two weeks straight then you go to turn the car on after just turning it off five minutes prior and it does not wanna work you mess with the wires, try to jumpstart the wires and unhook the passenger seat heat and adjuster then it starts..
Component malfunction: abs control module (module is part of the electronic stability program and traction control system). Available for inspection: upon request. Safety risk: random locking of front abs system at speeds of 20mph or less (great concern for event happening at a greater speed ). Vehicle manufacturer: admits known risk and problem w/ the abs control module and traction control system and is researching problem-matic modules, but will they not issue a recall. Part is not available. Warning lamps were after the first event (3-13-24): esp and traction control. Videos are difficult to catch do to the random nature of the problem.
The automatic stop/start erg valve
Sliding door got stuck shut and buzzes every time doors are locked.
The dash warning light appeared referring to a possible problem with the airbags. I took vehicle to the local dealer and i was informed after their inspection that i did have a problem the passenger airbag. They said they would need to replace passenger seat airbag and wiring harness associated with that device.
Without warning the car completely shuts off. This is very dangerous because it happened on the freeway (luckily the cars slowed down behind me). It is intermittent and two different mechanics have not been able to detect the problem. Was there a recall on this issue? What can be done to make this vehicle safer to operate. This has been going on for about 2 years.
