I received a safety recall notice from Chrysler (P41 / NHTSA 14V-438) in *July 2014 regarding my 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee. I took my car into the dealer (stephen wade auto, saint george, Utah) and was told the part was not available and they would contact me when they had news. I called stephen wade one year later in *July 2015*. they said the part was still not available and they would call me. Today ( Oct. 13, 2015 ) I received another safety recall notice but this time it is from Fiat Chrysler for exactly the same recall as I received July 2014. I decided to contact you / NHTSA. I don't want the Utah highway patrol to be picking me up with a blotter on the interstate 15 when I go air born because someone can't supply a replacement ignition switch. This has definitely put a cramp on my ability to visit the grandson because he's 350 miles away and I'm really not pleased how this is being handled by "??? if you need copies / photos of my notices, please contact me and I'll gladly upload them to you. Should I contact a lawyer " thank you for your time.

Grand Cherokee

  • 108,000 miles
My wife was taking our grand daughter to the hospital at 10 pm and every dummy light came on the Jeep and it started idling funny the taillights went out so she had to drive that late at night with no brake/ taillights on 69 with our granddaughter in the back. With nothing working what would keep somebody hitting her in the rear end or even worse what if something had happened and the airbags didn't deploy because there was an electrical problem. My wife has called Chrysler Jeep and made a complaint and they say that there is nothing they can do about it. We have looked online and found quite a few complaints about this particular problem with Jeep. This is not the first time this has happened either.....it happens on a regular basis. I fear for the safety of my family whenever they are driving. We bought this vehicle about 6 months ago with 100,000 miles on it and purchased the extended warranty. We have taken it to the Jeep dealership 3 times and they keep saying nothing is wrong with it. My wife has several videos of everything going haywire in the Jeep while she was driving. Anything NHTSA can do to help us out on this matter would be greatly appreciated especially before one of my family members get hurt. Thank you kevin
