ENGINE, STEERING, SERVICE BRAKES
THIS RELATES TO CHRYSLER SAFETY RECALL L25 FOR WIRELESS IGNITION NODE. OUR VAN SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT ANY WARNING AND THERE IS NO STEERING AND BRAKING. THIS IS THE PRIMARY VEHICLE WE CARRY 2 YOUNG CHILDREN IN AND IT IS EXTREMELY UPSETTING THAT THIS RECALL HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED. OUR VAN SHUT OFF 3 TIMES IN THE LAST 2 WEEKS WHILE CARRYING OUR KIDS. THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP REPORTS THERE IS A NATIONAL BACK-ORDER AND NO PARTS ARE AVAILABLE TO FIX IT. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE? WHAT ARE WE SUPPOSED TO DO? THIS IS VERY UNSAFE AND TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE! PLEASE HELP! *TR
