I RECEIVED NOTIFICATION REGARDING THE RECALL OF THE AIRBAGS IN MY VEHICLE OVER A YEAR AGO AND OF MY IGNITION OVER 6 MONTHS AGO BUT HAVE NOT TO DATE RECEIVED A LETTER TO HAVE MY VEHICLE REPAIRED. I WOULD MY VEHICLE TO BE REPAIRED ASAP AS MY SMALL NIECE AND NEPHEW SOMETIMES TRAVEL WITH ME IN MY VEHICLE AND I AM CONCERNED OF THEIR SAFETY AS WELL AS MINE AND MY HUSBAND. WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT THE CAR IN 2009, I HAD ISSUES WITH THE IGNITION SWITCH. I WOULD START THE CAR AND NOTHING WOULD WORK IE: THE RADIO, INSIDE DASHBOARD LIGHTS, ETC. I TOOK THE CAR TO CHRYSLER SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY COULD NOT DETERMINE WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS.
