MY VEHICLE SHUT OFF GOING OVER A BUMP IN THE ROAD. MY VEHICLE HAS DONE THIS ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS, TWICE IN THE MIDDLE OF INTERSECTIONS AND ONCE ON A RAILROAD TRACK. I WAS SENT AN IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL NOTICE FROM CHRYSLER (NOTIFICATION CODE P57) APPROXIMATELY 3 MONTHS AGO AND HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING SINCE THEN AND THIS ISSUE HAS PROGRESSIVELY GOT WORSE OVER THE LAST SEVERAL MONTHS. I DID CONTACT THE LOCAL CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP AND THEY HAD NO INFORMATION TO PROVIDE AND I ALSO HAD MY VEHICLE IN TO BE SERVICED FOR THIS ISSUE ABOUT ONE YEAR AGO WITH NO ISSUE IDENTIFIED BY RIVERSIDE AUTO GROUP IN MARINETTE, WI. I ALSO CALLED CHRYSLER AT 800-853-1403 AND THEY HAD NO UPDATE ON THIS ISSUE OR ANY IDEA WHEN THIS RECALL WOULD OCCUR TO FIX THIS ISSUE. I CANNOT AFFORD TO PURCHASE A DIFFERENT VEHICLE AND THIS ISSUE HAS BECOME A SAFETY CONCERN FOR ME AND MY FAMILY. WHAT RECOURSE DO I HAVE HERE? AM I EXPECTED TO CONTINUE DRIVING A VEHICLE WITH SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUES WITH THE IGNITION SWITCH JUST BECAUSE CHRYSLER IS NOT ADDRESSING THIS ISSUE IN A TIMELY FASHION? DOES THE NHTSA HAVE ANY OTHER RECOURSE I CAN TAKE ON THIS? I AM CERTAIN I AM NOT ALONE WITH THIS ISSUE AND I WOULD HATE TO SEE SOMEONE GET HURT OR KILLED, BECAUSE OF THE LACK OF PRIORITIZING BY CHRYSLER. *TR

I WAS PARKED AND WHEN I TURNED THE KEY IT STUCK AFTER THE CAR TRIED TO START BACK IN THE ACCESSORY POSITION. I ASKED THE DEALER HOW LONG BEFORE THE DETAILS AND PARTS WOULD BE IN. STILL NO DETAILS TO DATE. ANY UPDATE WHEN I CAN GET AN APPT. CONCERNS ME THE OTHER PART OF THIS RECALL IS VEHICLE SHUTS DOWN WHILE GOING DOWN THE ROAD?
