ANY CONTACT WITH CHRYSLER HAS RESULTED IN "WE'VE FORWARDED YOUR COMPLAINT TO OUR PARTS DEPARTMENT" AND THEN NO RESPONSE. WE WERE TOLD THAT NO PARTS ARE IN MANUFACTURING--THERE AREN'T EVEN PARTS TO FIX THE PROBLEMS!! WE CANNOT DRIVE OUR JEEP FOR FEAR OF DEATH / INJURY. PLEASE HELP US RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM. *TR

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR IGNITION SWITCH IN DECEMBER 2014. WENT TO MY CHRYSLER DEALER AND THEY COULD NOT DO THE RECALL BECAUSE NO PARTS HAVE COME IN. I CALLED AGAIN IN FEBRUARY 2015 STILL NO PARTS WHAT KIND OF RECALL IS THIS ARE YOU WAITING FOR AN ACCIDENT TO OCCUR FIRST? THE DEALER IS CLARE DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP OF NEWPORT AT 310 WEST MAIN ROAD, MIDDLETOWN RI TELEPHONE 401-846-2323. I WOULD LIKE THIS FIXED THIS YEAR. THANK YOU

UPON PREPARING TO STOP AND/OR MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN (MULTIPLE INCIDENTS) VEHICLE'S IGNITION SHUTS OFF. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS I WAS ATTEMPTING A LEFT TURN ON A BUSY INDUSTRIAL 4 LANE ROAD WHEN THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF MID-TURN. I HAD TWO SMALL CHILDREN WITH ME (1 AND 4) AND AM EXTREMELY LUCKY I WAS NOT HIT, FROM BOTH SIDES. MY KNEE SITS APPROXIMATELY 8 INCHES FROM THE IGNITION SWITCH SO I KNOW IT WAS NOT BUMPED. *TR

LIGHT BULBS BEHIND THE CLIMATE CONTROL UNIT AND INFORMATION CENTER BLOW. CONSOLE IS DESIGNED IN SUCH A WAY THAT THE BLOWN LIGHT BULBS CANNOT BE REPLACED AS THEY ARE FUSED TO THE CIRCUIT BOARD OF THE AFFECTED UNIT. ONLY WAY TO FIX THIS ISSUE IS TO REPLACE THE AFFECTED UNIT (LIKE THE WHOLE CLIMATE CONTROL), WHICH IS QUITE EXPENSIVE. THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW SINCE THE BULBS ARE NEITHER MAINTENANCE-FREE (AND LONG-LASTING) NOR SERVICEABLE. OPERATING THE VEHICLE WITH BLOWN CONSOLE LIGHTS AT NIGHT IS A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE IT CAUSE THE DRIVER TO TAKE THE EYES OFF THE ROAD FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME WHILE TRYING TO OPERATE UNLIT CONSOLE EQUIPMENT. THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE IN 2005-2010 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE WK AND 2006-2010 JEEP COMMANDER.

THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 186,000.

THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED SINCE I PURCHASED THE JEEP IN 2009 BUT IT WAS THE MOST SIGNIFICANT ONE. ALL LIGHTS WENT OFF INSIDE & OUT. THERE WAS SOME PROBLEM WITH THE STEERING & THE BRAKING ALSO. THE MOTOR DID NOT DIE NOR DID THE A/C OR RADIO GO OFF. WHEN THIS HAPPENS ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS FLASH A FEW TIMES & FOR A FEW SECONDS I LOOSE ALL THE LIGHTS & EXPERIENCE THE BRAKING & STEERING PROBLEMS. I DID RECEIVE THE RECALL NOTICE FOR THE IGNITION SWITCH IN SEPTEMBER, 2014 STATING THAT THEY WERE TRYING TO GET THE PARTS FOR REPAIR BUT I HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING ELSE FROM CHRYSLER. THIS IS THE ONLY VEHICLE THAT I HAVE AND AT THIS POINT I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE ANY DISTANCE. *TR

PRIOR TO THE INCIDENT, MY JEEP FELT AS IF IT WERE HAVING TROUBLE SWITCHING BETWEEN GEARS. IT FELT JERKY, IF YOU WILL. WHILE TRAVELING ALONG I-95 ON THE EAST COAST OF FLORIDA, MY JEEP (TWICE) SLIPPED GEAR AND APPEARED TO HAVE GONE INTO NEUTRAL. IF YOU KNOW THE AREA, IT'S NOT THE IDEAL PLACE FOR THIS TO HAPPEN. SINCE RETURNING TO THE WEST COAST OF FLORIDA, IT HAS HAPPENED ONCE. I'VE TAKEN TO A SHOP FOR A TUNE-UP AND TO CHECK ON THAT PROBLEM. NEEDLESS TO SAY, THE 'FIX' DID NOT FIX IT AND I'M STILL EXPERIENCING JERKY SHIFTS AND GEAR FAILURE. I'VE READ A NUMBER OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS REGARDING THE SAME TYPE OF INCIDENTS ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE, BUT HAVE NOT LOCATED A FIX FOR THE PROBLEM. WITHOUT HESITATION, I'LL SAY I'M TERRIFIED. *TR

I BOUGHT MY 06 JEEP IN MARCH OF 2015 AND HAD PROBLEMS WITH IT EVER SINCE. FIRST INCIDENT HAPPEND RIGHT AFTER I BOUGHT CAR. PULLED IN TO MCDONALDS DRIVE THROUGH AND STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP ON ME AND DASHBOARD LIGHTS LITE UP ALL OF THEM. SCARED THE CRAP OUT OF ME. SAME THINGS HAPPENED AT LEAST 6 OTHER TIMES WHERE THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD LOCK UP AND TRUCK WOULD SHUT OFF. I WAS SITTING AT A STOP LIGHT WHEN THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS LIT UP AND THEN TRUCK DIED. TRUCK WILL APPEAR TO BE RACING AT TIMES WHEN I BARLY HIT GAS.I HAD MY 5 YEAR OLD GRANDDAUGHT WITH ME AND THE TRUCK SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING GOING ABOUT 45 MILES. I NEVER WAS SO SCARED IN MY LIFE. ALL I COULD IMAGE WAS ME AND MY PRECIOUS GRANDDAUGHTER DYING. I WAS SO SCARED, I COULD NOT DRIVE FOR A DAY OR TWO TO SETTLE MY NERVES. PLEASE HELP !!!!!. I THINK THAT CHRYSLER NEEDS TO PAY FOR RENTALS TILL ISSUE IS FIXED OR HAVE TRUCKS REPLACED BEFORE SOMEONE DIES. !!!!!!!

DRIVING 30 MPH, AFTER ABOUT 3 MILES OF DRIVING MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. FOLLOWED THE TIPS TO CHECK THE CODE AND IT SAYS "TRANSMISSION OVER TEMP". EVERYTHING SEEMS TO BE OK AT THE TIME BUT I'M SURE THIS WILL EVENTUALLY CAUSE A PROBLEM. A COUPLE MONTHS AGO THE WHOLE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER CUT OFF AND ON 2 TIMES IN A COUPLE MINUTE WINDOW BUT THAT SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN AN ISOLATED INCIDENT SINCE IT HASN'T HAPPENED SINCE. *TR

AS I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AT 3AM, ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD LIT UP AND WENT BACK TO NORMAL. THIS OCCURRED 5 TIMES WITHIN A 30 MINUTE TRIP. AT THE SAME TIME THE SEAT WARMER TURNED OFF, MY SPEAKERS WERE NOT WORKING PROPERLY. HEAT WASN'T WORKING PROPERLY. AFTER THE SECOND TIME IT HAPPENED I TURNED RADIO OFF, KEPT SEAT WARMER OFF, AND TURNED OFF HEAT BUT IT HAPPENED AGAIN THREE TIMES AFTER THAT. IN BETWEEN THESE 5 INCIDENTS, THERE WAS ONE TIME THAT ALL THE LIGHTS ON MY INSTRUMENT PANEL WENT OFF COMPLETELY. THE ONLY THING THAT WAS ILLUMINATED WAS THE GEAR I WAS IN. IT WAS A VERY SCARY EXPERIENCE ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AND CANNOT SEE YOUR SPEED. ALL THE LIGHTS FLASHED ON WENT BACK TO NORMAL WHEN I DROVE THE CAR AGAIN THE FOLLOWING 2 DAYS. ONE TIME PER DAY ONLY. MY CAR CURRENTLY HAS A RECALL ON MY IGNITION BUT NO PART HAS YET BEEN RELEASED IN ORDER TO SWITCH OUT THE DEFECTED PART. I AM THINKING MAYBE THEIR IS A CORRELATION BETWEEN THE DEFECTED PART AND THE ELECTRICAL ISSUES? *TR

THIS COMPLAINT IS PART OF AN ONGOING RECALL (P41). WE HAVE NOT HAD AN INCIDENT WITH THE VEHICLE. HOWEVER, I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE IN AUGUST ABOUT THE IGNITION ISSUE. IT IS NOW 6 MONTHS LATER AND CHRYSLER STILL HAS NO INFORMATION ABOUT WHEN THE DEALERSHIPS WILL HAVE THE PART AVAILABLE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. ITS MY OPINION THAT THE RECALL NOTICE WAS SENT TO SATISFY LAWYERS IN CASE SOMEONE IS KILLED WHILE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE, AS IN, "WE SENT A RECALL NOTICE TO MAKE YOU AWARE OF THE PROBLEM". HOW LONG DOES CHRYSLER HAVE TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE BEFORE THE GOVERNMENT GETS INVOLVED? *TR

WHILE DRIVING AT A SPEED OF APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH A NOISE OCCURRED IN THE REAR OF THE JEEP. THE NOISE BECAME LOUDER AS I SLOWED DOWN AND FINALLY STOP.

WAS DRIVING VEHICLE WHEN MY WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON AND I LOST POWER TO THE VEHICLE INCLUDING POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES.
