ENGINE, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
MADE SEVERAL COMPLAINTS TO CHRYSLER AROUND NOVEMBER 2014 REGARDING MY CAR CUTTING OFF AND PERIODICALLY NOT STARTING.I RECEIVED A RECALL FROM THE FCA AROUND THAT SAME TIME FOR "WIN MODULE AND FREQUENCY OPERATED BUTTON IGNITION KEY (FOBIK'S P57".. I HAVE A 5 YR. LOAN ON MY CAR AND CHRYSLER ASSURED ME THAT THIS ISSUE WOULD BE RESOLVED. I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM CHRYSLER MANUFACTURE CUSTOMER SERVICE/FIELD OPERATIONS IN AUGUST 2015 STATING THAT BOTH RECALL PARTS HAD COME IN AND I WAS TO CONTACT MY NEAREST DEALER. WELL, THE NHTSA 14V-567 AIRBAG HAD COME IN. IT HAS BEEN CORRECTED.THANK YOU, BUT ALTHOUGH THAT IS ALSO A SERIOUS ISSUE, WHAT IS GIVING ME A PROBLEM IS THE CUTOFF & START. MY FAMILY & I FEEL UNSAFE! NOT TO MENTION NOT BEING ABLE TO HAVE A CAR THAT I CAN DEPEND ON. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT THIS HASN'T BEEN CORRECTED. IT APPEARS TO BE GETTING WORSE. CHRYSLER SAID THE PART WAS IN...IS IT OR NOT?!!!! I NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT MY FAMILY IS SAFE AND MY CHILDREN CAN GET TO AND FROM SCHOOL & APPOINTMENTS. THIS IS RIDICULOUS! *TR
