Turn on heater get clicking noise for about 30 seconds, then stops. You would think that after all this time chrysler, would be smart enough to fix the problem. This car has 36200 miles and is a 2013. No car should start having these issues at this stage. I have never owned a chrysler, before and probably never will again. I would like to know how many others have this problem.

Reported at 36,200 miles, February 2015
