RECALL 790 WAS PREFORMED IN 1999, (A PATCH WAS INSTALLED ON A FUEL RAIL). MARCH OF 2016 THE FUEL RAIL BEGAN LEAKING AND I TOOK THE CAR TO A FORMER CHRYSLER REPAIR GARAGE, (GRAFT, SCOTTDALE, PA 724-887-7800) WHERE THEY FOUND THE RECALL PATCH FAILED AND I HAD TO HAVE A NEW FUEL RAIL INSTALLED. THE SERVICE MANAGER, [XXX] INFORMED ME I SHOULD CONTACT CHRYSLER SINCE THE RECALL REPAIR OF 1999 FAILED AND APPLY FOR REIMBURSEMENT. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER AND THEY TOLD ME DESPITE THE REPAIR OF 1999 FAILING THIS YEAR RECALLS HAVE AN EXPIRATION! THAT IS NOT TRUE ACCORDING TO MULTIPLE DEALERS I'VE CONTACTED. THE REPAIRS FOR THE FAULTY FUEL RAIL COST ME $366.00 AND CHRYSLER REFUSES TO ASSIST. I CAN BE REACHED AT [XXX]....[XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

IN A "PANIC STOP " SITUATION THE ABS CONTROLLER MODULATED AND REDUCED VERY SIGNIFICANTLY THE BRAKING EFFORT WHEN THE DRIVER SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES ON DRY PAVEMENT. WHILE BRAKING THE DRIVER ALSO MANEUVERED INTO THE K RAIL TO REDUCE SPEED AND ALMOST AVOIDED A COLLISION. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AND WERE NOT NEEDED AS THE FINAL CRASH WAS AT LOW SPEED.
