ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, AIR BAGS, SERVICE BRAKES
I BOUGHT MY 2008 JEEP COMMANDER 4X4 WITH V8 4.7L, QUADRA TRACK II ON 8/1/2013. ATP I WAS TOLD THERE WAS A RECALL ON ______________. I SERVICE APPOINTMENT WAS MADE AND THE CARE WAS REPAIRED. I SOON CALLED THE REPAIR SHOP BACK AND COMPLAINED OF THE AIRBAG LIGHT BEING ON INTERMITTENTLY, 4X4 SERVICE LIGHT AND PARKING AND BRAKE LIGHTS ALSO WORKING INTERMITTENTLY. I WAS TOLD THAT THESE ISSUES WERE NOT PARK OF THE RECALL THEY REPAIRED AND TO CALL THE DEALER I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM. I CALLED AUTOMATION AND WAS TOLD THAT MY COMPLAINTS WERE NOT IN THE RECALL AND OR UNDER A WARRANTY WITH THEM AND TO PAY FOR A SERVICE APPOINTMENT. I COULD NOT AFFORD THE SERVICES SO NO GO. I STILL HAVE THESE ISSUES OFF AND ON AND JUST GOT A SERVICE REPAIR RECALL NOTICE IN 9/2010. LIKE ALL THE OTHERS I'M STILL RISKING EVERYTHING EACH TIME I DRIVE THE ONLY CAR WE OWN AS A FAMILY AND AN WAITING FOR CHRYSLER TO MAKE THE PART AVAILABLE AND PRAY I DON'T HURT MYSELF MY FAMILY OR ANOTHER DRIVER, IF THE SYSTEM DECIDES TO COMPLETELY FAIL. COME ON GET YOUR [XXX] TOGETHER WE NEED PARTS AND A FIX ASAP!!! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING, VISIBILITY:SUN/MOON ROOF ASSEMBLY, STRUCTURE
THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AFTER THE ENGINE STALLED OUT SEVERAL TIMES IN A ROW. I HAD IT TESTED, AND THEY SAID IT WAS AN IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE. THE IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE DOES NOT EXIST ON THIS VEHICLE, BUT YET ITS THE ONLY CODE THAT IT IS GIVING OFF. I'M STILL HAVING STALLING ISSUES WHICH ARE DANGEROUS WHEN PULLING OUT OF INTERSECTIONS. ANOTHER ISSUE THAT IS ONGOING THAT I'M HAVING, IS THE SUNROOF LEAKING. I HAVE LITERALLY 2 GALLONS OF WATER THAT WILL BE ON MY FLOOR BOARD WHEN IT RAINS. YOU CAN HEAR WATER SLOSHING ABOVE YOUR HEAD BEFORE IT HITS THE WIRING IN THE DOOR PANELS AND THEN COLLECTS ON THE FLOOR BOARDS. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
I HAVE 2006 JEEP COMMANDER IN WHICH I AM EXPERIENCING ISSUES WITH THE IGNITION SWITCH ON MY VEHICLE. THE DEFECTIVE IGNITION SWITCH CAUSES EVERY LIGHT ON MY DASHBOARD TO ILLUMINATE AND IT CAUSES MY VEHICLE TO STALL, AS WELL AS FLICKERING LIGHTS WITH NO POWER TO FUEL GAUGES, MPH, AND RPM NEEDLES. AFTER ALL THE LIGHTS ILLUMINATE AND GO AWAY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON, AND THE DEFECTIVE IGNITION SWITCH DRAINS MY BATTERY CAUSING MY VEHICLE TO NOT START WITHOUT A JUMP START BY THE NEXT DAY. WITH A SLIGHT TAP ON THE KEY IT WILL MOVE SOME OR A BUMP IN THE ROAD WILL MAKE THE IGNITION SWITCH START ACTING UP AND MAKE SOME OF THE PREVIOUSLY DESCRIBED SYMPTOMS ACT UP. OCCASIONALLY THERE ARE CLICKS THAT COME FROM THE IGNITION SWITCH AFTER THE VEHICLE HAS STARTED, WHICH SIGNIFIES THAT THE DEFECTIVE IGNITION SWITCH IS GOING TO FAIL SOON. I RECEIVED THE NOTIFICATION FROM THE CHRYSLER CORPORATION ABOUT THE RECALL AND THAT MY VEHICLE IS INCLUDED IN IT, BUT HAVEN'T RECEIVED THE SECOND NOTICE TO THIS DATE ABOUT WHEN THE PART WOULD BE AVAILABLE. I CALLED IN NOVEMBER TO CHECK AND SEE WHAT CAN BE DONE BUT I WAS TOLD THE SAME THING THAT NO PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. SO THIS LEAVES ME AT THE END OF THE ROAD WITH THIS VEHICLE. I CHECK ONLINE ALMOST ALL THE TIME FOR UPDATES AND STILL THE SAME THING. I HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING THIS RECALL SINCE IT POPPED UP IN THE NEWS BEFORE I RECEIVED NOTIFICATION FROM CHRYSLER, BECAUSE I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH MY VEHICLE. I AM SCARED FOR MY LIFE THAT THE KEY WILL MOVE INTO THE WRONG PLACES DISABLING MY CAR OR WHEN THE IGNITION SWITCH ACTS UP IT WILL MAKE ME LOOSE CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE AND IT COULD BE DANGEROUS FOR ME OR ANY OF MY PASSENGERS EVEN FATAL. SAFETY SHOULD BE CHRYSLERS NUMBER ONE PRIORITY. AT THIS POINT I HOPE TO GET RID OF THIS CAR AND MOVE AWAY FROM CHRYSLER'S PRODUCTS FOR GOOD ESPECIALLY SINCE FIAT IS RUNNING THE SHOW! *TR
