TO WHOM THIS MAY CONCERN, I CALLED BACK IN LATE 2014 ABOUT A PROBLEM I WAS HAVING, I WAS TOLD THAT WHEN THE PART WAS MADE I WOULD RECEIVE A CALL TO BRING MY CAR IN TO BE FIXED. WELL IT KEEPS ON HAPPENING AGAIN IN JANUARY AND NOW MORE THEN THREE TIME IN FEBRUARY. I AM NOW GOING TO BE IN CONTACT WITH A LAWYER AND TOGETHER WE WILL BE DOCUMENTING EVERYTHING. I AM A FAMILY OF FIVE AND MY CAR IS NOT SAFE. YOUR COMPANY IS GIVING ME THE RUN AROUND AND IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY. THESE THINGS THAT ARE HAPPENING WITH MY CAR IS FILED FROM THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION WITH RECALL REPORT ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: IGNITION: SWITCH AND REAR SEAT BELTS. MY CAR KEEPS ON SHUTTING OFF. I HAVE HAD MYSELF AND MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR WHEN THIS HAS HAPPENED. I SAVED US TOO MANY TIMES. THERE HAS BEEN TIMES WHEN MY CAR SHUT DOWN AND I LOST BREAKS AND STEERING. THERE WAS MULTI TIMES WHEN I AM DRIVING AND ALL OF MY LIGHTS START GOING CRAZY. NOW I HAVE A PROBLEM THAT I TRIED STARTING MY CAR AND THE LIGHTS GO ON BUT MY IGNITION WILL NOT TURN ON THE CAR. ANOTHER PHONE CALL WAS MADE TO THE CORPORATE OFFICE AND THE DEALERSHIP TO COMPLAIN AGAIN. WE WHERE TOLD THAT THEY ARE STILL WAITING FOR THE PARTS TO COME IN THEY ARE ON BACK ORDER. EVERY DAY I HAVE TO DRIVE THIS CAR WITH AND WITHOUT MY CHILDREN WE ARE AT RISK. YOUR RESPONSIBLE, I HAVE HAD TWO OTHER JEEPS AND LOVED THEM NEVER HAD A PROBLEM LIKE THIS BEFORE. SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO I NEED TO WORK AND TRANSPORT MY CHILDREN TO AND FROM DIFFERENT SCHOOL/SPORTS ACTIVITIES. IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO ME OR MY FAMILY IT WILL LIE ON YOU AND YOUR COMPANY.

THE CAR TURNS OFF AT BUMPS, OR THE SLIGHTEST TOUCH OF THE IGNITION SWITCH. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS AND HAS CAUSED ME TO RUN OFF THE ROAD MANY TIMES. I HAVE CONTACTED SEVERAL DEALERSHIPS OVER THE YEARS AND NO ONE WILL FIX IT. THEY SAY THERE IS NO FIX. I FEEL MY LIFE IS IN DANGER. IF THE CAR JUST TURNS OFF AT THE WRONG TIME, IT WILL KILL ME AND OTHERS. WHY WILL NO ONE REPAIR THIS? FIND ME A DEALERSHIP THAT HAS THE F'ING PART BEFORE SOMEONE DIES!!!!! *TR

I HAVE A 2008 COMMANDER THAT IS PART OF THE P57 RECALL FOR THE IGNITION SWITCH (9/2014). THE SWITCH HAS TOTALLY FAILED (2/2015). CALLED ALL THE DEALERS IN MY AREA AND NOBODY HAS RECEIVED THE PARTS YET. CALLED JEEP THEY HAVE NO UPDATE ON WHEN PARTS ARE GOING TO BE AVAILABLE. THEY SAID THE BEST THEY CAN DO IS TO PUT ME ON A PRIORITY LIST. I ASKED ABOUT TRYING TO GET A LOANER CAR (AT NO COST TO ME) TO USE WHILE MY JEEP IS DOWN THEY SAID THAT THEY COULDN'T HELP ME OUT. LOOKING FOR SUGGESTIONS. DOWN A CAR NOW AND HAVE NO IDEA WHEN IT WILL BE REPAIRED. *TR

I HAVE TWO OF THESE 2006 COMMANDERS WHICH ARE DRIVEN BY MY TWO DAUGHTERS. I RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE FOR THE IGNITION SWITCH MONTHS AGO BUT IT SAID THAT PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE, WHICH IS APPARENTLY STILL THE CASE. HOW LONG ARE MY GIRLS SUPPOSED TO DRIVE THESE VEHICLES IN THIS CONDITION? WILL THESE PARTS EVER BE AVAILABLE? I SOLD A PREVIOUS JEEP TO BUY THIS ONE BECAUSE THE OLD ONE, AS I FOUND OUT AFTER I PURCHASED IT, WAS SUSCEPTIBLE TO GAS TANK EXPLOSION. AND NOW THIS. WILL CHRYSLER EVER BE FORCED TO REMEDY THIS SITUATION? OR WILL THEY BE ALLOWED TO WAIT UNTIL SEVERAL MORE PEOPLE DIE FROM THEIR LACK OF ATTENTIVENESS TO THIS PROBLEM? *TR

MY JEEP HAD AN ISSUE WHILE I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY DRIVING 55 MILES PER HOUR. THE PARK DRIVE REVERSE AND NEUTRAL LIGHTS LIT UP AND I COULD NO LONGER ACCELERATE. I WAS REAR ENDED WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR. THIS IS THE MOST DANGEROUS VEHICLE I HAVE EVER OWNED. I HAVE HAD I TO THE MECHANIC FOR REPAIR AND THE MECHANIC CALLED JEEP AND JEEP WAS NOT CLEAR ON HOW TO FIX IT. MY MECHANIC RESET MY COMPUTER AND IT CORRECTED THE PROBLEM FOR A LITTLE WHILE BUT NOW I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT. I AM TELLING EVERYONE WHO WILL LISTEN. THIS IS DANGEROUS. IT'S A BAD PRODUCT AND IT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. I KNOW THAT PEOPLE NEED TO DIE BEFORE THEY DO SOMETHING. I AM JUST GLAD IT WASN'T ONE OF US TONIGHT. *TR
