For three sudden engine failures: 1) approximately april 16, 2014 noticed some of the dashboard warning lights blinked a little. Stopped at a traffic light it turned green stepped on the gas, the car jumped and stalled in traffic. Was able to restart the car and go about a 100 yards into a side street. Was met by local police. Got tow truck and had it towed to the local chrysler dealer. After the car was repaired drove out of the dealer but noticed that a dashboard warning light was on. 2) approximately may 2, 2014 the dashboard warning lights blinked again but the car kept running. Drove to my destination. When I returned to my car, turned on the ignition key it would not start again not even to crank the motor. Got tow truck and towed it back to the chrysler dealer. After the car was repaired, the warning lights were double checked, then drove out of the dealer. 3) approximately may 20, 2014 was going down hill hit a small bump causing dashboard warning lights to go on the car stalled, rolled the rest of the way down hill and pushed it into my driveway. I tried myself to fix it. Pulled off the main fuze cover and pulled out some fuzes this brought back some power to restart the car. The fuzes were apparently to the air bags but gave enough power to make the engine run. Made an appointment with an electrical repair specialist. Drove it to there lot. Was asked detailed questions on how I got there. The car was repaired but with problems, the electrical system is not protected in the front of the car and was advised to get a splash guard. But went to the chrysler dealer parts department. Found that it wouldn't do much good and none exist to completely protect it. The car runs fine now but hazardous. I believe I shouldn't be paying repair bills for this fault.

It w approximately 9:20 am on may 12, 2014 when I was returning home from my sons home in rochester, ny to livonia, mi. I was driving on the freeway and all of a sudden my left drivers side back wheel it the gravel in the far left lane nearest to the guard rail. I turned my wheel and when I did the car started to spin hit the guard rail head on and spun again and I went head on into a ditch and totaled my whole front end and my injuries were devastating. My entire air bag system did not implode. My family in ny took all pictures from where the car was towed. Not one thing was broken in my interior none of the airbags went off and even the state police and witnesses and ems stated to my family they didn't know how I didn't go through the windshield by the grace of god. I fractured my back and have lost l2 & l3 in my spine with a lumber fusion from l5 to l12. The spinal surgeon who says I wouldn't have had this severe of a back injury and head injury, oh yes my head injury. I hit my head so severe I was in the pysch ward for 4 days before they could do my back surgery.my time in buffalo was so awful. I didn't know anyone I thought I was kidnapped by [xxx] and the siberan liberation army and I was being held captive. I was given a ct scan and one month ago as my memory and speech has began to get worse along with my permanent walking and defective spine. I am encouraged by my spine doctor and medical doctor to seek advice on this problem of the air bags not imploding. They all from buffalo to here in mi have said the air bags were the reason I have these injuries. I am alive today by the grace of god and my seat belt! Please for the other people who have this small vehicle check out the air bags and let us know what is the reason they didn't implode. I have pictures of the entire vehicle inside and out and would be greatly appreciative of your help. God bless.

I was going home one evening when I swerved to miss a deer and I went off a little ditch and hit a tree. None of my air bags deployed. I was flown to the hospital. I had shattered my shoulder, broke my hip, ankle, and 7 of my ribs. I was bed bound and wheel chair bound for 3 months and could not walk at all. It was very devastating. I was in very good health but not now. I did have to learn to walk again but I did it. I do have to live with some limitations now. Very disappointed that none of my air bags deployed.
