THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND WOULDN'T GO OFF....NOW IT GOES OFF FOR A LONG PERIOD (50-100 MILES) AND THEN COMES BACK ON.....AND OFF AGAIN....AND ON AGAIN. THERE IS A RECALL #F39, CAMPAIGN ID 06V295000 BUT I HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING IF THIS RECALL WAS ADDRESSED ON THIS VEHICLE. THERE IS ALSO A RECALL P41 FOR IGNITION SWITCH BUT I HAVE CHECKED TWICE AND THE DEALER SAID THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO FIX IT???? I CALLED CHRYSLER AND THEY SAID THE PARTS ARE NOW AVAILABLE?

ALL FOUR OF THE INTERIOR DOOR HANDLE PLASTIC PARTS (I BELIEVE THEY ARE CALLED CUPS) HAVE BROKEN. THIS HAS CAUSED THE HANDLES THEMSELVES TO BECOME LOOSE AND UNSTABLE. THE HANDLE ON ONE OF THE DOORS (RIGHT REAR DOOR) HAS ALSO NOW BROKEN, CAUSING THAT DOOR TO BE UNUSABLE FROM THE INSIDE, WHICH HAS CREATED A SAFETY ISSUE IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY OR ACCIDENT. UPON INVESTIGATING THIS ISSUE VIA INTERNET SEARCH, I HAVE COME TO UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH MANY JEEPS MANUFACTURED BETWEEN 2005-2010. THE SAFETY ISSUES ARE URGENT AND NEED TO BE ADDRESSED BY JEEP IMMEDIATELY.

THE AIR BAG INDICATOR LIGHT IN MY CAR STAYS ON AND I WAS TOLD MY AIR BAG BAR IN MY STEERING WHEEL IS BROKEN. I WAS ALSO TOLD BY A MECHANIC THAT IF THE AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON THEN THE AIR BAGS WON'T DEPLOY IN AN ACCIDENT. HE ALSO INDICATED THAT I MAY HAVE A BROKEN AIR BAG BAR IN MY STEERING WHEEL. THIS IS OF GREAT CONCERN AS IF I DO GET AN ACCIDENT AND MY AIRBAGS DON'T WORK THEN THERE MAY BE INJURIES AND POSSIBLE FATALITIES.
LIGHT BULBS BEHIND THE CLIMATE CONTROL UNIT AND INFORMATION CENTER BLOW. CONSOLE IS DESIGNED IN SUCH A WAY THAT THE BLOWN LIGHT BULBS CANNOT BE REPLACED AS THEY ARE FUSED TO THE CIRCUIT BOARD OF THE AFFECTED UNIT. ONLY WAY TO FIX THIS ISSUE IS TO REPLACE THE AFFECTED UNIT (LIKE THE WHOLE CLIMATE CONTROL), WHICH IS QUITE EXPENSIVE. THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW SINCE THE BULBS ARE NEITHER MAINTENANCE-FREE (AND LONG-LASTING) NOR SERVICEABLE. OPERATING THE VEHICLE WITH BLOWN CONSOLE LIGHTS AT NIGHT IS A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE IT CAUSE THE DRIVER TO TAKE THE EYES OFF THE ROAD FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME WHILE TRYING TO OPERATE UNLIT CONSOLE EQUIPMENT. THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE IN 2005-2010 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE WK AND 2006-2010 JEEP COMMANDER.
I BOUGHT A 2006 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE IN 2009. SHORTLY AFTER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE, I EXPERIENCED ENGINE POWER LOSS & POWER STEERING LOSS. I TOOK MY JEEP INTO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT, BUT THEY COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM AT THE TIME. THIS HAPPENED TO ME MULTIPLE TIMES, YET THE DEALERSHIP NEVER FOUND THE PROBLEM. IN 2014, I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FROM CHRYSLER (RECALL P41) STATING THE SOME JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE VEHICLES MAY EXPERIENCE THIS ISSUE. THEY ADVISED IT WAS A SAFETY ISSUE. PER RECALL P41, "THIS INCREASES THE RISK OF A CRASH AND DISABLING ONE OR MORE OF THE VEHICLE'S SAFETY FEATURES INCLUDING THE FRONTAL AIRBAGS." I WAS PREGNANT AT THE TIME SO I CALLED CHRYSLER'S GROUP RECALL ASSISTANCE CENTER AT 1-800-853-1403, AND WAS ADVISED THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS AVAILABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I TOLD THEM I WAS CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF MY UNBORN CHILD, ESPECIALLY SINCE THIS ISSUE HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES TO MY VEHICLE ALREADY. I CALLED CHRYSLER BACK RECENTLY AND TOLD THEM IT HAPPENED AGAIN TO ME, WHILE I HAD MY HUSBAND AND NEWBORN IN THE CAR. I WAS DRIVING ON THE PARKWAY & MY ENGINE JUST SHUT OFF! I WAS SCARED TO DEATH! I ASKED CHRYSLER FOR A RENTAL VEHICLE TO USE UNTIL THE PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. THEY SAID THEY DO NOT OFFER THAT. SO I AM SUPPOSED TO KEEP DRIVING THIS "DEATH TRAP?" I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS JEEP, BUT DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO BUY ANOTHER CAR NOW. PLUS, I HAVE A NEWBORN BABY TO THINK ABOUT. I FEEL THEY SHOULD OFFER RENTAL VEHICLES TO
EVERY TIME WE HAVE A RAIN STORM, THE FRONT FLOOR DRIVER'S SIDE GETS SOAKING WET. I HAVE TO LAY DOWN TOWELS TO DRY IT AND THEN LET THE SUN DO THE REST. IT HAS LEAKED SINCE I PURCHASED IT IN 2010 BUT KEEP WAITING FOR A RECALL. I FOUND A RECALL FOR A 2007 JEEP LIKE MINE FOR THE SAME LEAKAGE PROBLEM. IT APPEARS TO COME DOWN THE TRACT ON THE OUTSIDE AND RUNS IN UNDER THE CARPET ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE ONLY. I DON'T WANT IT TO MOLD OR RUST OUT MY FLOOR SO WOULD LIKE TO HAVE IT REPAIRED.

GOING 40 MPH THE ALL LIGHTS ON DASHBOARD CAME ON, THE RADIO SHUT OFF, THE ABS BRAKES MADE A NOISE THEN EVERYTHING ON DASHBOARD WENT OUT. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON & THE GAS GAGE DIDN'T WORK YOU COULDN'T TELL HOW FAST YOU WERE GOING ,THE AIR CONDITIONER QUIT & ENGINE STOPPED, THE VEHICLE WAS HARD TO STEER & THE BRAKES WERE MANUAL & THEN ENGINE STARTED AGAIN. I TURNED THE CAR OFF & TURNED IT BACK ON & THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON & THE DASHBOARD SEEMS TO WORK AGAIN. THIS HAS HAPPENED 2 TIMES WITHIN 3 DAYS. I AM RENTING A VEHICLE CAUSE I'M TOO AFRAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. THERE IS A RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE FOR THE IGNITION SWITCH WITH ALL THE SAME VEHICLE LOSS OF ENGINE POWER, POWER STEERING & BRAKING ASSIST BUT IT DOESN'T INCLUDE THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS COMING ON & THE DEALERS SAY IT IS NOT THE SAME THING. THE IGNITION SWITCH RECALL CAME OUT IN JULY 2014 & TO DATE THEY HAVE NOT PROVIDED ANY DEALERSHIPS WITH THE REPLACEMENT PARTS. HOW CAN JEEP SAY IT IS NOT THE SAME PROBLEM IF THEY WON'T REPLACE THE RECALLED IGNITION SWITCH TO FIND OUT?
I TOOK MY 2006 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE IN TO THE DEALER TO HAVE MY REPROGRAM FINAL DRIVE CONTROL MOD RECALL P73 FIXED. WHILE I WAS THERE THE DEALER INFORMED ME THAT THE RECALL DID NOT FIXED ANYTHING, AND THEIR WAS NOTHING ELSE THAT THEY COULD DO FOR ME. AS OF TODAY 7/1/15 MY 4 WHEEL LOW STILL DOES NOT WORK. ABOUT 1 YEARS AGO I HAD RECALL N23 PREFORMED ON MY JEEP WHICH IMEDIALLY CAUSED THE 4 LOW TO NOT WORK. JEEP STILL HAS NOT FIXED THE ISSUE THAT THEY CAUSED. MY 4 LOW WORKED BEFORE I TOOK MY JEEP INTO THE DEALER TO HAVE RECALLED `N 23 PEFORMED.

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
