Control arm just instantly broke while I was driving down the highway. I didn't know about the recall till I seen it on web site so no authorities were contacted.

The steering gear is coming apart and is slipping which causes it to feel like you're driving sideways down the road. The windows will not go down without making a horrible noise and the thermostat housing needs to be replaced. After driving the jeep it smells like its been on fire.

Manufacturers recall: my vehicle makes a serious vibration in the steering wheel and a loud humming noise when I drive down the road. It pulls to the right terribly and wears oot my tires constantly. It fish tales when I accelerate the gas petal and also when I take my foot off of the gas. It walks the road. And feels unstable when u reach 60mph. It feels very unsafe and does it's own thing when we are driving . It just goes all over the road .the results are the same whether it's being driven in the city or highway. Unpredictable my vehicle has been recalled by chrysler u38 is the recall number and it's off the recall expansion of 12v‑085
