Wiper problem #1

I viewed the recalls and it’s still having the same issues like it’s never been fixed, first off when I start the car it has a foul gas odor and the dealership said it was okay but I’m more than positive it’s an exhaust leak, also when I first got the car the heated seats wouldn’t turn off because of the radio malfunction I’ve actually took it to where I bought the car(john gibson autosales) to get it fixed but all they did was inserted a new radio screen for me and it made my problems even worse I asked them to fix it and they said I’d have to pay for any other work they did in the car. . It’s having multiple electrical issues and in my opinion I don’t believe the car is safe to drive at all with the heated seats turning on by themselves and having no control over it.

Wiper problem #2

I was driving on the highway and out of no where my sunroof exploded. I was going the speed limit and to my knowledge nothing hit me. Thank god my sunroof shade was pulled forward or else glass would've been coming at my infant daughter and myself at 70 mph. I called my insurance and even though this was a freak event that happened, I had to pay $500 to get it fixed. I was reading that this isn't the first time a sunroof from my make, model, and year has exploded.

Wiper problem #3

Purchased the car on 12/23, on 1/20/18 my wife was driving, she pulled back on the turn signal lever to activate the high beam headlights and the turn signal lever broke off in her hand. I was told by Chrysler corporate and the dealership that this wouldn't be covered under warranty. When I called another dealership to inquire about having the broken part replaced, I was told this is on a national back order. I called Dodgepartsonline. Net to see about purchasing this part and they said that they are showing 26 back orders for this part. When performing a google search for this same incident, there are multiple reported occurrences of the turn signal lever breaking off. To rebut Chrysler's response, if this part isn't defective then why is there a national back order with Chrysler for the replacement part and other owners reporting a similar incident with the lever breaking off. I had to utilize an epoxy resin to glue the broken piece back onto the shaft so I can operate the turn signals but my windshield wipers are inoperative due to the ribbon wire that controls the wipers broke.
