1 Engine And Engine Cooling problem

Failure Date: 01/14/2016

I got a trouble code for cylinder #7 misfire. It is the lifters going out due to the afm or dod, whatever gm calls it. The system shutting down the 8 cylinder to 4 cylinders. $3000 job for something that I'm sure gm is very aware of. These 5. 3s with this afm will have this problem. It's just a matter of when.

2 Engine And Engine Cooling problem

Failure Date: 03/11/2015

"takata recall" purchased from eastchester Chrysler Jeep dodgr dealership in bronx, NY 10486 , on Feb. 28, 2015, engine light illuminated on dashboard indicating a possible problem. I took it back approximately 7x to the dealer for repair and approximately 8 additional times at other mechanics. Unfortunately, light continues today. Both headlights were problem; drivers side beginning first dimming very low. Several weeks later, the passenger side headlight began to have problems as well. Eventually it became a necessity to become an expensive out-of- pocket expense. Finally, the stability check light continuously comes on and off making it necessary to stop and turn off and restart vehicle as suggested by dealer mechanic advice. Allinformation described is verified with documents.
