AFTER PICKING UP MY VEHICLE FROM MY LOCAL JEEP DEALER ON THE AFTERNOON OF THURSDAY AUG 27TH, WHERE IT HAD BEEN FOR A WEEK FOR SERVICE REPAIRS, ONE OF WHICH WAS THE REMOVAL OF THE CONSOLE TO REPAIR THE EMERGENCY BRAKE, I NOTICED THAT THE LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD SHOWING AIR BAG DEACTIVATED WAS ILLUMINATED. I WAS OUT OF TOWN ON VACATION UNTIL THIS LAST FRIDAY SEPT. 4TH, AND I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER THIS MORNING, AND THEY DID FIND A WIRE THAT WAS DISCONNECTED, BUT THERE WAS A SENSOR THAT HAD FAILED. THEY REFUSE TO OWN UP TO THE FACT THAT THEY DID SOMETHING DURING THE EMERGENCY BREAK REPAIR PERIOD THAT DEACTIVATED THE AIR BAGS AND TOLD ME THE $480 REPAIR TO REPLACE THE SEAT SENSOR IS MY RESPONSIBILITY. UNTIL THIS PROBLEM IS REPAIRED, I CANNOT SAFELY TRANSPORT A PASSENGER IN THAT FRONT SEAT, SO I HAVE AT THIS TIME NO CHOICE BUT TO HAVE THIS DEALER MAKE THAT REPAIR.

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK DOWN AN INCLINE/HILL ON 9/2, THERE WAS TRAFFIC AHEAD, THE ENGINE SHUT OFF AND THE BREAKS LOCKED. I PULLED THE E-BREAK AND SWERVED OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, LUCKILY WITHOUT ANY CRASH. I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE BUT HAD A TOW TRUCK TOW IT TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC WHO VERIFIED THERE WAS NO PROBLEM WITH THE BREAKS, AND NOTIFIED ME OF THE RECALL P41 ON THE IGNITION SWITCH WHICH CAN CAUSE THE ENGINE TO SHUT OFF AND POWER STEERING AND BREAKS TO LOCK WHILE DRIVING. THE JEEP DEALERSHIP TOLD ME NOT ONLY ARE THE PARTS NOT AVAILABLE BUT THEY DON'T KNOW WHEN THEY WILL BE AVAILABLE AND THEY CAN'T DIAGNOSE THIS AS THE PROBLEM WITHOUT REPLICATING THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE SO IT IS UNCLEAR TO ME WHY THE ISSUE WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLICATED. I HAVE A BABY AND DO NOT WANT TO DRIVE THIS CAR, AS RECOMMENDED BY JEEP CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THE DEALERSHIP, AND RISK ACCIDENT TO MYSELF OR OTHERS UNTIL THE PART IS IN AND FIXED. I CAN'T BELIEVE JEEP WOULD ASK ME TO CONTINUE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE NOT ONLY KNOWING THERE IS A RISK BUT AN ACTUAL PROBLEM. I THINK IT'S FAIR THAT JEEP PROVIDE ME WITH A SAFE ALTERNATIVE FORM OF TRANSPORTATION IN THE MEANTIME.

VEHICLE HAS STALLED WHILE IN DRIVE AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, IN REVERSE OR IDLING AT A STOP. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN ONGOING FOR OVER 2 YEARS - HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP; WAS NEVER TOLD THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE IGNITION SWITCH UNTIL I BROUGHT RECENTLY TO MIDAS FOR THE ABOVE ISSUES. THEY ADVISED THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF DUE TO THE IGNITION SWITCH BEING FAULTY. THERE HAS ALSO BEEN OCCASIONS THAT THE ABS SEEMS TO ENGAGE WHILE IN DRIVE, TYPICALLY OCCURS WHEN TURNING. UNKNOWN IF THIS IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE FAULTY IGNITION SWITCH. WAS TOLD BY CHRYSLER THAT THE RECALLED PART WOULD BE AVAILABLE AS OF SEPTEMBER 11, 2015 - IT IS STILL NOT AVAILABLE. THIS VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE.

THE HEADLIGHTS, DASHBOARD LIGHT, AND INTERIOR LIGHTS ALL FLICKER SPONTANEOUSLY. THE HEADLIGHTS HAVE WENT COMPLETELY OUT AT NIGHT WHILE DRIVING. SOMETIMES THE HEADLIGHTS DO NOT COME ON AT ALL OR TAKES SEVERAL ATTEMPTS BEFORE COMING ON. AT TIMES THE HEADLIGHTS AND INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL FLICKER ON AND OFF FOR SEVERAL SECONDS BEFORE CUTTING OFF. WHEN RAINING AND USING THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND HEADLIGHTS THE LIGHTS WILL FLICKER ON AND OFF. THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING FOR OVER A YEAR AND I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AT NIGHT FOR FEAR OF THE LIGHTS GOING OUT.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2006 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE MY HEADLIGHTS AND DASH LIGHT BEING TO FLASH UNCONTROLLABLY. I HAD TO PULL THE VEHICLE INTO A PARKING LOT AND LEAVE IT TILL THE MORNING. I HAVE READ HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS BUT NO ONE HAS THE EXACT FIX FOR THE PROBLEM.

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR AN IGNITION SWITCH, LAST SUMMER. I CONTACTED FOX NEGAUNEE, WHICH IS THE ONLY JEEP DEALER IN MARQUETTE. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH PARTS ON HAND TO COMPLETE ALL THE VEHICLES AT THE TIME, AND THEY WOULD GET BACK TO ME AND PUT ME ON A LIST. THAT WAS THE LAST TIME I HEARD FROM THEM. IT HAS BEEN ABOUT 9 MONTHS. RECALL NUMBER,P41/NHTSA 14V-438

WHILE PARKED THE CAR WILL ROTATE BETWEEN NOT CRANKING TO STARTING BUT SHUTTING COMPLETELY OFF. IN ADDITION TO THESE ISSUES WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH THE VEHICLE WILL SOMETIMES STALL AND ENGINE WILL START TO LOSE POWER. I TOOK THE VEHICLE INTO CUTTER DODGE IN HONOLULU FOR REPAIR ON 8/25. THEY DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A IGNITION SWITCH RECALL BUT THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE PART TO FIX IT AT THIS TIME. IN ADDITION, STATED THAT THE WIRELESS CONTROL MODULE(WCM) HAD FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. WHILE THE CAR WAS THERE THEY ALSO PERFORMED A 28 POINT INSPECTION AND DIDN'T FIND ANY ADDITIONAL CONCERNS. NINE DAYS LATER THE WCM PART COME IN FROM CANADA AND WAS REPLACED. MY VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO ME ON 9/2. THE CAR RAN AS INTENDED AT TIMES FOR 9 DAYS AND ON 9/12 THE NO CRANK, NO START ISSUE RETURNED. AS OF THE TIME OF THIS FORMAL COMPLAINT THE VEHICLE WILL NOT START. IN A CLOSING, THE ISSUES THE CAR WAS EXPERIENCING PRIOR TO TAKING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR OR EXACTLY THE SAME ISSUES THAT I'M EXPERIENCING TODAY. I WILL HAVE THE JEEP TOWED BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP FIRST THING SUNDAY MORNING.

I HAVE BEEN RECEIVING RECALL NOTICES FROM CHRYSLER SINCE SEPTEMBER 2014. I DID EVERYTHING THE RECALL NOTICE PROMPTED ME TO DO UNTIL THE PARTS CAME IN. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES OVER THE LAST YEAR TO SEE IF THE PARTS CAME IN. I REALLY DID NOT HAVE ANY ISSUES UNTIL AUGUST 3,2015. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET AND MY CAR JUST TURNED OFF. I HAD NO POWER STEERING BUT I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER WITH NO PROBLEM AND THERE WAS NO TRAFFIC AROUND ME. I NEW IT WAS THE IGNITION SWITCH ISSUE SO I CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THE PARTS FOR THAT RECALL ARE NOT AVAILABLE SO THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE. THIS IS MY ONLY FORM OF TRANSPORTATION AND I AM A NURSING STUDENT AND CAN NOT AFFORD TO BUY A NEW CAR. I HAVE CONTINUED TO DRIVE IT AND ON 3 SEPARATE OCCASIONS IT HAS TURNED OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING. LUCKILY I HAVE EITHER BEEN IN SLOWER TRAFFIC OR SITTING AT A STOP LIGHT. THIS WEEK ON 3 OCCASIONS I WENT TO START MY CAR AND IT WOULD NOT START. I CALLED AAA BUT BY THE TIME THEY ARRIVED IT STARTED AGAIN. THE JEEP DEALERSHIP TOLD ME I SHOULD NOT DRIVE THE CAR, I ASKED THEM IF THEY COULD GET A CAR FOR ME TO DRIVE UNTIL THE PARTS COME IN SINCE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO THEIR RECALL AND THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT DO THAT. THIS IS THE ONLY TRANSPORTATION I HAVE. I GO TO SCHOOL FULL TIME, AM DOING MY CLINICALS AND PERCEPTORSHIP AT THE HOSPITAL AND WORK PART TIME TO PAY MY RENT. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT I AM SUPPOSED TO DO IF THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO REPAIR MY CAR AND THIS COULD BE A LIFE THREATENING PROBLEM. YESTERDAY (9/23/2015) I STOPPED BY BAXTER JEEP IN OMAHA, NE TO SEE IF THEY COULD GET ME IN TO CHECK MY CAR BECAUSE IT DIDN'T START THE FIRST TIME I TRIED TO START IT THAT MORNING. THEY TOLD ME THEY COULDN'T GET IT IN UNTIL OCTOBER 7. I WENT TO ANOTHER AUTO REPAIR SERVICER AND THEY CONFIRMED IT WAS THE IGNITION SWITCH PERTAINING TO THE RECALL.

ALL FOUR OF MY DOOR PANELS HAVE CRACKED/DISINTEGRATED BEHIND THE DOOR HANDLE. AUGUST 1, THE DRIVERS DOOR HANDLE IS NOW NON FUNCTIONAL REQUIRING THE LOWERING OF THE WINDOW TO EXIT VEHICLE. THIS WOULD BE A SAFETY HAZARD IN A CRASH. DEALER STATES ALL DOOR PANELS MUST BE REPLACED AT PART COST OF $450 EACH (INSTALL EXTRA) - THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A DEFECT GIVEN THAT ALL FOUR DOORS HAVE DONE THIS AND THERE ARE MANY INTERNET THREADS ABOUT THE ISSUE.

THE IGNITION APPEARED TO DROP ALL GAUGES, BLOWER, WARNING LIGHTS, ETC. THE ENTIRE DASH WENT DEAD AND ALL CONTROLS WENT DEAD AS FAR AS GAUGES, INTERIOR LIGHTS, FAN MOTOR, ETC., ALTHOUGH THE VEHICLE APPEARED TO KEEP RUNNING. THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE AND WORSE, AND WE HAVE BEEN WAITING OVER A YEAR FOR JEEP TO GET THE PARTS TO REPLACE THE SWITCH. THEY REFUSE TO REPLACE THE SWITCH WITH A NEW SWITCH MATCHING THE SAME PART NUMBER, BUT ALSO HAVE NOT SECURED REPLACEMENT SWITCHES. IT APPEARS THAT THEY CAN CONTINUE TO SOURCE SWITCHES FOR CARS IN PRODUCTION THEY WISH TO SELL, JUST NOT THE ONES AFFECTED BY THIS RECALL. PERHAPS IF SOMEONE HALTED SALES OF NEW CARS UNTIL THE AUTO MANUFACTURERS PROVIDED REPLACEMENT PARTS FOR THOSE UNDER RECALL, WE WOULD HAVE BETTER PERFORMANCE ON RECALLS.
