For the past several months the car will not start and takes several tries to successfully start the car. It hesitates at around 35 MPH and tries to stall. I have been waiting for chrysler to follow up with a second (l-25) recall notice. Yesterday, 12/14/14 while going around a round-about it died completely and I lost power steering, and all power to the car. I was able to restart the car and return it home. This is my main form of transportation, used to take the kids to school and activities. I was told by the dealer today they have been advised not to touch it by chrysler and told to contact chrysler. The representative at chrysler said I needed to take it up with the dealer as it is not a matter of having a part, but that chrysler does not have a solution. This is very concerning, as it poses a serious safety to concern to me, my kids, and other drivers. Please let me know what recourse I have in getting chrysler to complete the full repair to my satisfaction. **the mopar website says parts are available. It would seem a huge liability that chrysler would not make driver and passenger safety priority.

As of 9/1/2014, with frequency increasing, my 2008 chrysler town and country intermittently shuts itself off, only not all the way. I lose very important safety features, such as the use of power steering. I have had several near accidents as a result. I understand that my issue is directly related to the l25 recall and that chrysler recognizes and accepts liability for the issue, however, they offer no solution, putting each one of it's owners and their families lives at risk each time the vehicle is operated. My complaint is not that there is an issue, rather that chrysler knows about it and is not fixing the issue.

Recall l25/ the federal safety agency 14v‑373 was published on 10/10/14 and I got noticed by mail. On oct 27 I tried to make a service appointment to have the problem fixed but was told that no parts were available and that I would be notified (both my dealership and the chrysler group recall assistance center claimed this). I have had no follow up from chrysler or its dealership. I followed up today again and was told that no parts were available. I believe that this is unacceptable and herewith want to file an official complaint about the slow handling of this recall. How can I use this car during our upcoming christmas trip of more than a 1000 miles with an urgent and important safety recall not being fixed. I believe the way how this is handled by chrysler and the oem manufacturer responsible for the fobik is gross negligent! Both should be fined severely for their lack of timely response!
My son and a friend took my car to a movie. The car suddenly quit running while driving on a residential street at approximately 25mph. There have been two recalls on the vehicle concerning the win module and win module detents. In 2010 I experienced the same exact issue, had the car towed to a dealership and they supposedly fixed the problem. This recent incident was exactly like the first. The dealership is refusing to replace the module and wants me to pay $600 to have it fixed. The car will not start without this repair. I am at wits end wondering why it is my responsibility to pay for a known safety issue repair.

I had received notice that my chrysler town & country was possibly part of a recall for the fobik issue. I made an appt with the dealership & it was confirmed that the vehicle was part of the recall. While driving with my four children down at 45 miles per hour, the engine did "unintentionally shut off". Fortunately, I was in an outside lane and was able to coast to the edge of the road without incident. I contacted the vehicle safety hotline that day regarding my concern that there are no parts available to fix a known problem & spoke with [xxx]. I was added to an email notification list at that time. To date, I had not been contacted. I spoke with [xxx] from the vehicle safety hotline today & was directed to call chrysler. I spoke with a representative at 800‑992‑1997 to explain my concerns. They stated that parts were not available and that there was no one else to talk to about it. That isn't a satisfactory answer. I need a safe vehicle for my family. What else can be done? Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

Received recall 3 months ago for fobik and each time I check they tell me they don't have the part. What's this all about? Who's going to see that they get the part? What happens if I have difficulty? Whose responsible?

Van is under the new expanded ignition switch recall. Ignition switch is getting looser and looser. Part is on backorder supposedly, have done as the dealer and chrysler recommend and removed everything off my key ring. Still getting loose. If this thing breaks down again for the 3rd time this year I don't know what I'll do. From what I understand it's a fatal issue as well, vehicle is non functional once ignition switch falls out.
