IN OCT., 2014 I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE L25/NHTSA 14V-373. I HAVE CALLED MY DEALER AND CHRYSLER'S VEHICLE SAFETY HOTLINE TWICE, AND AGAIN TODAY. BOTH REPORT THAT "THE PROBLEM IS IN THE IGNITION SWITCH, BUT THAT "THE REPAIR PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE, NOR DO THEY HAVE AN ETA FOR THEIR ARRIVAL". LAST EVENING MY CAR'S ENGINE SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 40 MPH. I RESTARTED AND IT STOPPED AGAIN. I HAD PLENTY OF GAS AND THE CAR HAS RUN NORMALLY SINCE. HOWEVER, THE CAR BEHIND ME ALMOST DIDN'T STOP IN TIME. HOW CAN THIS VEHICLE BE SAFE TO DRIVE? WHAT IF I HAD BEEN GOING 65 MPH ON THE INTERSTATE? I WAS EMPLOYED FOR MANY YEARS IN THE MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY AND NEVER HEARD OF PLACING , OR RECEIVING AN ORDER WITHOUT OBTAINING A DELIVERY COMMITMENT. WHAT IS GOING ON HERE? *TR
