While driving on the freeway my engine started slowing down and a message came on the dash saying "Transmission Service". I was fortunate enough to make it to the right shoulder from the first lane and the engine stopped. The readout on the dash said I was in neutral but I was in park. The car wouldn't start. After cooling down I could start and drive but the same issue would happen intermittently. I took it to AAMCO and they told me that there was a recall for the range sensor and wiring harness (S55/the federal safety agency 16V‑529). When I got to the dealer he said that recall didn't pertain to my vehicle and I would have to pay for the service. Since the issue does cover vehicles of my make, model and year I want to know why isn't it covered? It's the same issue as the ones covered. I'm lucky that I wasn't involved in an accident because of this.

The car was stopped in the light, the radiator fan came on, it made a sound and then there was a burning smell. The car overheated and I stopped it to cool down. The radiator fan stopped and the car overheated. I took it to the dealership for review and was told to change the fan and fuses. Checking the recalls I found the federal safety agency 19v‑818, which matches the specifications of my car and the problem with the engine cooling fan. I await your prompt response to be able to solve my problem with the car.

While on vacation in nm and co, an engine cooling fan on safety recall (our exact model, make, and year and accessories) was blowing fuses/malfunctioning - the result possible is the same thing that initiated the recall - possibility of fire. Blown fuse also can result in limp mode being executed in a dangerous driving situation, (slick roads, steep mountains, curves not to mention $1000's of dollars of unnecessary repairs because it also falsely affected the diesel particulate filter. Vehicle was in motion and on highway and smaller roads - it happened out of blue each time the attached document shows same cooling fan recalled - dealer refused to replace saying our VIN not on the list but obviously it is having problems and replacing it is what fixed the vehicle thanks

My exact vehicle ram promaster i4 3l turbo diesel with factory air is on a safety recall for bad coolant fan, but chrysler is saying that my VIN does not qualify. The chrysler dealer tells me I need to replace my cooling fan because it is shorting and blowing the fuse and possibly affecting the relay also. This fan code is also putting the van in limp mode and not allowing the diesel particulate filter to be regenerated. Here is the link for recall that I found please help or at least let me know what recourse I have - it's pretty obvious this fan has issues and 2015 was one of the 1st. - the whole engine and emissions is tied together by the computer and sensors so 1 thing affects many thanks [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

Engine overheat, cooling fan seizure.

My TPMS system has never worked reliably since new. It is on now and has been on intermittently for 40,000 miles. Typically it comes on and stays on for a week to a month and checking or adjusting tire pressure seems to have no effect on whether it is on or suddenly off for a month or two. I am concerned I might really have a failing tire or low pressure and because the light is on I cannot know. I understand the federal safety agency requires this system. Is it safe to be so unreliable? It is on now on since oct 14th but the tires are properly inflated as has been true in the past.
