Ignition recall....jeep won't start. Have a new starter and battery. When I can get it to finally start the fan stops. Then I get stranded because it won't start again. I see this vehicle has 5 recalls. I bought this jeep from a car lot less than 6 months ago. The lot warranty has expired. So I googled the make and model and find 5 recalls. So far thank god the jeep is stationary when it won't start. But being stranded with a 4 month old baby in the middle of winter....... Yes in angry as hell!

Chrysler has a recall out for faulty ignition switches. The recall notices were issued in sept 2014. It is now mid dec and there are no parts and no remedy for this when in contact with chrysler directly. On the recall it states that the engine can stop due to electrical failure w/in the veh with out notice as well as the power steering can be lost and or the braking all of which increase your crash potential. There is also warning that the air bags can deploy w/o warning causing bodily harm to both the driver and passengers. They are aware there is an issue and state they still have done nothing to resolve - inexcusable!!!
