MY MINIVAN WAS INVOLVED IN A RECALL ANNOUNCED IN MARCH OF 2015 FOR IGNITION SWITCH PROBLEMS. I HAVE CALLED SEVERAL DEALERSHIPS IN MULTIPLE STATES TRYING TO GET MY MINIVAN FIXED AND NONE OF THEM HAVE HAD THE PARTS AND NO ONE CAN TELL ME WHEN PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A RECOGNIZED PROBLEM AND PART OF A PREVIOUSLY ANNOUNCED RECALL, BUT FIAT CHRYSLER AUTOMOBILES HAS NOT PROVIDED RECALL PARTS TO DEALERSHIPS OR UPDATED ANYONE ABOUT THE PROGRESS OF THE RECALL. IT HAS BEEN ALMOST ONE YEAR SINCE THE RECALL WAS ANNOUNCED WITH NO PROGRESS ON MY VEHICLE.

I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR A RECALL ON AN IGNITION WIN MODULE RECALL. THE CAR WAS GIVEN BACK TO ME WITH SEVERAL ELECTRICAL ISSUES AND IS NOW VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE. DEALER REPLACED THE PART 4X NOW SAYS ITS MY ISSUE!! MY CAR WAS WORKING PROPERLY WHEN IT WAS GIVEN TO THE DEALER AND WAS NOT RETURNED TO ME IN THE SAME CONDITION. THE DEALER EXPERIENCED AND WITNESSED THIS ISSUE AND SAYS THEY CANT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. THE ONLY WAY THEY WILL HELP ME IS IF I PAY. MY CAR WILL RANDOMLY LIGHT UP THE DASH LIKE I JUST TURNED IT ON, WIPERS GO ON BY THEMSELVES, I HAVE NO DIALS ON THE DASH THEY ALL BOTTOM OUT TO ZERO SO I HAVE NO IDEA HOW FAST IM GOING, MY TURN SIGNALS AND HEAD LIGHTS GO ON AND OFF, EVEN IN THE DARK! MY CAR DOESNT REGISTER IN PARK SO MY DOORS WONT OPEN. AFTER I TAKE THE KEY OUT IT WILL LIGHT UP AS IF KEY IS IN IT AND ITS NOT. NOT SAFE FOR DRIVING BUT I HAVE NO OTHER OPTIONS AT THIS POINT!
