2007 Chrysler Aspen 4X4

THIS COMPLAINT INVOLVES THE FRONT SUSPENSION SYSTEM OF THE 2007 CHRYSLER ASPEN 4X4. WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS ANY BUMPS ENCOUNTERED ON THE ROAD SURFACE WILL RESULT IN A SUDDEN SHIFT OF DIRECTION, OR "JUMPING" OF THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE. THIS CAN POSSIBLY SEND THE DRIVER INTO ANOTHER LANE OF TRAFFIC. I HAVE HAD THIS HAPPEN MANY TIMES OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS OF OWNERSHIP OF THE VEHICLE. AS AN OWNER OF SEVERAL OTHER FCA VEHICLES (INCLUDING, JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE AND A JEEP COMMANDER) I FIND THIS VERY DISTURBING THAT NHTSA HAS NOT INVESTIGATED THIS PROBLEM AS IT HAS BEEN REPORTED ON SEVERAL OF THE CHRYSLER FORUMS. NO VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE THE FRONT END "JUMP" AND HAVE THE DRIVER SUDDENLY GOING IN A DIFFERENT DIRECTION THAN INTENDED, THIS IS A DEADLY SAFETY CONCERN. BUT HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED EITHER BY FCA OR BY NHTSA, THIS MAY REQUIRE THE USE OF AN ATTORNEY AND A LAWSUIT BEFORE THIS GETS RESOLVED AS IT SEEMS TO BE A SMALL MAJORITY OF PEOPLE THAT ARE REPORTING THIS ISSUE. *TR

DASH IS STILL ILLUMINATED, RADIO TURNS ON BY ITSELF AND CAN'T LOCK DOORS WITH THE CAR TURN TO OFF POSITION AND KEY OUT OF IGNITION. CAR DOOR CONTINUES DINGING NOISE AS IF KEY IS IN POSITION. DRAINS THE BATTERY. WHEN YOU GIVE THE BATTERY A CHARGE THE CAR WILL CUT OFF WHILE DRIVING BECAUSE BATTERY IS TOO WEAK. WE REPLACED THE BATTERY 3 TIMES IN ONE YEAR. CHRYSLER DEALER CANNOT FIND THE ISSUE. THEY STATE THE ASPEN IS KNOWN TO HAVE DRAIN BATTERIES QUICKLY. YOU CAN DRIVE OVER A SMALL BUMP OR POT HOLE AND CAR WILL JUMP ACROSS THE ROAD. PLACED BRAND NEW TIRES AND CAR IS ALIGNED PERFECTLY BUT STILL MAKES THE CAR JUMP. AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS THE CAR WILL MOVE TO ANOTHER PERSON'S DRIVING LANE ON DUAL HIGHWAY WHEN HITTING A BUMP. THIS IS NOT SAFE FOR ANYONE AND SCARES MY FAMILY. ONE DAY, IF WE HIT A BUMP, I MIGHT SIDE SWIPE/CRASH INTO A PASSING CAR OR ROLLOVER OFF THE ROAD.
