ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
2008 JEEP COMMANDER, ENGINE WOULD REPEATEDLY SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING. IT WOULD HAPPENED AT ALL SPEEDS, FROM PULLING OUT TO DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. I RECEIVED THE SAFETY RECALL P57/NHTSA 14V-567 OVER SIX MONTHS AGO WHICH STATED "CHRYSLER IS MAKING EVERY EFFORT TO PROVIDE THE PART AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE". THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS PROBLEM THAT COULD END UP KILLING SOMEBODY IF IT HASN'T ALREADY. IT IS UNACCEPTABLE THAT CHRYSLER CAN OPERATE IN THIS MANNER AND TAKE THIS LONG TO FIX THE PROBLEM. IT APPEARS THEY COULD CARE LESS ABOUT THE CUSTOMERS SAFETY AND THAT THEY ARE NOT TAKING THE RECALL SERIOUSLY.

STEERING, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, SERVICE BRAKES
SINCE I PURCHASED MY JEEP COMMANDER I HAVE EXPERIENCE TOTAL ELECTRICAL FAILURE WHILE DRIVING ON MANY OCCASIONS. THIS HAPPENS APPROXIMATELY EVERY 6 MONTHS. WHILE DRIVING IN SPEEDS VARYING FROM 20 - 70 MILES AN HOUR MY CAR WILL LOSE POWER. PRIOR TO LOSING POWER ALL DASH LIGHTS, TACHOMETERS, HAZARDS, WARNING LIGHTS AND PERFORMANCE INDICATORS WILL FLASH REPEATEDLY, VERY QUICKLY. WITHIN MOMENTS OF THE FLASHING LIGHTS MY GAS WILL SHUT OFF, MY BRAKE SYSTEM COMPLETELY FAILS AND MY STEERING WILL COMPLETELY LOCK UP. I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO WAY OF CONTROLLING MY VEHICLE IN ANY MANNER. SEVERAL TIMES MY VEHICLE HAS STOPPED IN MAJOR TRAFFIC. NUMEROUS TIMES OTHER VEHICLES HAVE HAD TO MAKE DRASTIC MANEUVERS TO AVOID CRASHING INTO MY CAR. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN REAR ENDED AND WAS NEARLY T-BONED WHEN MY CAR DIED AS I ATTEMPTED TO MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN. IN THE EVENT THAT I AM HIT, MY AIRBAGS HAVE NO POWER AND WILL NOT DEPLOY. MY WINDOWS AND LOCKS HAVE NO POWER. MY CHILDREN AND I COULD BE TRAPPED IN MY CAR. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO THE JEEP DEALERSHIP THAT I PURCHASED IT AT AND THEY REFUSE TO FIX IT AND WILL NOT PROVIDE A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE THAT IS NOT A DEATH TRAP. I HAVE CALLED THE CHRYSLER RECALL ASSISTANCE CENTER AND WAS TOLD NO PARTS ARE AVAILABLE AND HAVE NO INDICATION AS TO WHEN OR IF THERE EVER WILL BE. I CANNOT SELL MY CAR BECAUSE NO ONE WILL BUY IT KNOWING IT HAS SUCH MAJOR SAFETY ISSUES. THIS IS THE ONLY VEHICLE I OWN. I HAVE 3 CHILDREN THAT DRIVE IN THIS CAR EVERYDAY. ONE OF MY CHILDREN HAS CANCER AND I NEED A SAFE RELIABLE CAR TO TAKE HIM FOR CHEMOTHERAPY TREATMENTS. CHRYSLER IS NOT ACCEPTING ANY RESPONSIBILITY EVEN THOUGH I WAS MAILED A RECALL NOTICE. PLEASE HELP!!!!!

AFTER CONTACTING MY LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP, I AM TOLD THERE STILL IS "NO SOLUTION" TO FIX THE CURRENT IGNITION SWITCH RECALL ON MY JEEP. THEY HAVE KNOWN ABOUT THIS FOR YEARS. MY "OFFICIAL" RECALL NOTIFICATION WAS SEPTEMBER 2014, AND THERE IS NO SOLUTION YET. HOW LONG DOES ONE HAVE TO WAIT FOR A VIABLE SOLUTION? WHY NOT JUST INSTALL A NEW IGNITION SWITCH INSTEAD OF REPLACING PARTS? I BELIEVE I HAVE WAITED LONG ENOUGH, AND STILL NO FIX. MY CONCERN NOW IS WITH THE RUSH TO FIX AIR BAD MY FIX WILL BE DELAYED EVEN LONGER. HOW LONG IS A REASONABLE TIME TO WAIT BEFORE THE GOVERNMENT DEMAND ACTION?

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM WORK I NOTICED MY TRUCK WAS SLOWING DOWN WITHOUT ME APPLYING THE BRAKES AND ONCE I DID APPLY THE BRAKES I WAS INFORMED I HAD ONLY ONE BRAKE LIGHT WORKING. AT THAT TIME I IMMEDIATELY WENT TO A PART STORE TO HAVE THE FUSES CHECK AND I PURCHASED MORE BULBS AND FOUND OUT THAT WAS NOT THE PROBLEM. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT INFORMED ME THAT THIS WAS ELECTRICAL PROBLEM NOT EVEN THE NEW BULBS WORKED AND THE FUSES WERE GOOD AS WELL. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN OCTOBER 2014 FROM DRIVE TIME OF COLUMBUS, GA AND WAS NOT INFORMED OF THE RECALL. THE CARFAX ASSOCIATED WITH THIS VEHICLE DID NOT MENTION ANY DEFECTS AS A MATTER OF FACT THE CARFAX LISTED THIS VEHICLE AS ALMOST PERFECT. I HAVE CONTACT CHRYSLER REGARDING THIS MATTER AND THEY TOO LET ME KNOW THIS PROBLEM WAS PART OF THE RECALL BUT THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS AND IT IS MAY 2015. NOW I AM DRIVING A TRUCK THAT IS REALLY NOT SAFE. I SPOKE WITH THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASE THE TRUCK WITHOUT ANY RESOLUTION. THEY ARE ONLY CONCERNED WITH THE PAYMENTS., CAN SOMETHING BE DONE? CAN THIS DEALERSHIP BE MADE TO GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK I HAVE SPENT ON THIS TRUCK OR GIVE ME ANOTHER VEHICLE WHICH I AFRAID TO TRUST ANYONE AT THIS POINT. YOUR ADVICE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANK YOU
