2006 JEEP COMMANDER Complaints

VEHICLE LOSES IGNITION POWER WHEN DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. DASH CLUSTER WARNING LIGHTS FLASH MULTIPLE TIMES. SPEEDOMETER, TACHOMETER, FUEL, TEMP GAUGES FALL TO ZERO POINT. STEERING BECOMES DIFFICULT/INOPERABLE. VEHICLE WILL SOMETIMES REGAIN POWER. RECALL RELATED TO IGNITION SWITCH HAS BEEN OPEN SINCE SEPTEMBER 3, 2014. MANUFACTURER HAS NOT ISSUED ANY SOLUTION/REMEDY. MANUFACTURER HAS SUGGESTED "REMOVING EXTRA KEYS/KEYCHAINS FROM IGNITION KEY AND AVOID BUMPING THE IGNITION KEY WITH KNEES." THIS IS NOT A REMEDY. THE PROBLEM STILL OCCURS. THIS IS DANGEROUS. RECALL IS INCOMPLETE. NHTSA RECALL NUMBER: 14V-438 MANUFACTURER RECALL NUMBER: P41

MY JEEP COMMANDER HAS A RECALL, I TOOK IT IN RIGHT AWAY AND WAS TOLD PART NOT AVAILABLE. IT HAS BEEN OVER A YEAR AND STILL NOT FIXED. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS NO PARTS IN YET AND ITS BEEN OVER ONE YEAR. ONE YEAR AND I HAVE MADE MULTIPLE TRIPS AND CALLS TO THE RIO VISTA CALIFORNIA CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP AND THEIR RESPONSE IS THAT CHRYSLER IS TO SEND ME A LETTER WHEN THE PART IS AVAILABLE. DEALERSHIP IS SAYING PART NOT AVAILABLE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND MY CHILDREN'S SAFETY COMES FIRST. I'M APPALLED AT HOW THIS HAS BEEN HANDLED. I'VE BEEN PATIENT FOR TOO LONG.
