WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE I WAS TOLD ALL RECALLS HAD BEEN DONE. I CAME TO FIND OUT THEY HADN'T. THE IGNITION ISSUE 14V-567 AND 15V-313 HAVE NOT BEEN DONE.

I HAD TO PAY OVER $400 DOLLARS FOR NEW IGNITION SWITCH AND KEYS AND WAS NOT HAPPY. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS GONE ON 3 DIFFERENT LIGHTS. THEY SAY THE CODE WAS CLEARED AND KIT WENT OFF. IT CAME ON AGAIN YESTERDAY. FRUSTRATION AND DECEIT DOESN'T EVEN BEGIN TO COVER MY FEELINGS RIGHT NOW. THEY ALSO CLAIM THE PARTS FOR THE RECALLS AREN'T AVAILABLE. NOT A SUFFICIENT ANSWER.

VEHICLE HAS HAD MULTIPLE ISSUES WITH IGNITION SWITCH, SOMETIMES AS SOON AS I START THE CAR THEN ENGINE WILL DIE. I THOUGHT INITIALLY THAT I WAS DOING SOMETHING WRONG AND I LET IT PASS BECAUSE THIS VEHICLE IS NOT HEAVILY USED, BUT STARTED SEEING ONLINE THAT PEOPLE WERE COMPLAINING FOR SIMILAR ISSUES. I TRIED SWITCHING KEYFOBS BUT THAT DID NOT SOLVE THE ISSUE. FORTUNATELY, I'VE NEVER HAD THE ENGINE DIE ON ME WHILE DRIVING, BUT SEEMS LIKE IT COULD HAPPEN. I NOW HAVE REMOVED EVERYTHING FROM MY KEY CHAIN FOR THIS CAR AND BASICALLY DRIVE THE CAR WITH ONLY A VERY LIGHT KEY RING ATTACHED TO THE KEY. I ALSO HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET THIS ISSUE FIXED SINCE THE RECALL NOTICE CAME TO ME. THAT WAS LAST YEAR! I'VE REPEATEDLY CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY CLAIM THEY DO NOT HAVE PARTS FOR THIS RECALL. A FEW WEEKS AGO (TODAY IS 9/24/2015) I GOT A NEW NOTICE TO TAKE THE CAR IN, CALLED THE DEALERSHIP, GOT THE CAR IN THE SHOP; SERVICE ADVISOR CALLED ME IN THE AFTERNOON STATING THAT CHRYSLER DOES NOT HAVE PARTS!! AND THEY DO NOT KNOW WHEN THEY'LL BE AVAILABLE. THIS RECALL (P57) AND (R25) ARE ISSUES THAT CAN CAUSE LOSS OF FUNCTION WITHOUT WARNING. TO ME IT IS UNBELIEVABLE THAT THE COMPANY IS NOT MAKING SURE PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. THAT IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE.
