WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE, THE A/C, DASH, AND POWER STEERING SHUT DOWN. ADDITIONALLY, THIS CASUEA THE BRAKES TO LOCK UP. THIS IS A DIRECT ISSUE WITH THE IGNITION. WHEN THE KEY IS IN THE "ON" POSITION, THE VEHICLE ACTS AS IF IT WERE IN THE "OFF" POSITION. THIS ISSUE HAS PUT ME IN MULTIPLE SITUATIONS WHERE I FEARED AN ACCIDENT WAS IMMINENT. I CALLED MY LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP WHICH INFORMED ME THAT THE REPLACEMENT PART WAS NOT YET AVAILABLE. I WAS ENCOURAGED TO CALL CHRYSLER'S MAIN OFFICE TO GET AN UPDATE. THEY ADVISED ME THAT IT WAS NOT YET AVAILABLE AND THAT THEIR RECOMMENDATION WAS TO NOT DRIVE MY VEHICLE UNTIL THE RECALL WAS AVAILABLE. THIS VEHICLE IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION, SO THAT IS NOT AN OPTION FOR ME. THE RECALL FOR THIS PART WAS ISSUED 9/3/14, IT IS NOW 6/9/15 AND THE RECALLED PART STILL CANNOT BE REPLACED.

ALL FOUR DOOR HANDLES ON MY 2006 JEEP LAREDO HAD BROKEN FOR NO REASON. JEEP HAD BEEN CONTACTED NUMEROUS TIMES VIA CHAT AND PHONE TO NO AVAIL. THIS ISSUE WAS ORIGINALLY ADDRESSED AT AN ORIGINAL COMPLAINT SUBMISSION DATED BACK A YEAR AGO BUT THE ISSUE ON THE DOOR HANDLES WAS NEVER ADDRESSED. THIS VEHICLE IS USED TO CARPOOL KIDS TO/FROM SCHOOL AND ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO, A FRIEND OF MY DAUGHTER'S HAD HURT (PINCHED) HIS HAND TRYING TO EXIT THE VEHICLE. THIS MAY SEEM TO BE A SMALL MATTER, BUT AS A PARENT DRIVING KIDS TO/FROM SCHOOL AND SCHOOL EVENTS, I CANNOT JUST WAIT FOR AN "EMERGENCY" TO OCCUR BEFORE TAKING ACTION. THIS MAY NOT BE ELECTRICAL OR ENGINE RELATED BUT AS I SEE IT, DOORS ARE USED TO EXIT THE VEHICLE AND IN THE EVENT THAT THERE'S AN EMERGENCY, I WOULD LIKE TO THINK THAT MY FAMILY (AND OTHER PASSENGERS) CAN SAFELY EXIT THE VEHICLE. AS STATED IN THE ORIGINAL STATEMENT/COMPLAINT, I HAVE HAD TO LET MY DAUGHTER GET OUT OF THE CAR BY OPENING THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR FOR HER. THESE HANDLES SHOULD NOT HAVE BROKEN DUE TO ITS NORMAL USE BUT BECAUSE OF A DEFECTIVE OR LOWER QUALITY ITEM USED FOR THESE DOOR HANDLES, IT IS NOW A SAFETY HAZARD. THIS HAS BEEN A KNOWN ISSUE ON THESE JEEPS AND I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE IF YOUR OFFICE COULD REVIEW THIS ISSUE WITH CHRYSLER/JEEP AS SUCH EQUIPMENT/ITEM SHOULD NOT HAVE PASSED QUALITY INSPECTION. THANK YOU VERY MUCH IN ADVANCE, AND I CAN ONLY HOPE THAT THIS BE RESOLVED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. *TR

MY CAR IGNITION INADVERTENTLY TURNED OFF AND DISABLING POWER STEERING, BRAKE ETC. THIS RESULTED IN THE DRIVER NOT BEING ABLE TO CONTROL THE KEEP. THE JEEP ROLLED DOWN THE HILL AND HIT THE CAR BEHIND AND DAMAGING BOTH THE CARS AND INJURING ONE OF THE PASSENGERS IN THE CAR BEHIND.
