Recall for ignition switch was completed unsatisfactorily by the dealer. 1) it is extremely difficult to get the key to turn. The new design takes excessive force to push the key in and then turn, and, again, excessive force to push the key in and remove the key. This repaid is totally unacceptable to me, 2) new key barrel, or whatever they installed in the steering column, does not align up in the hole in the…

I also have a 2005 jeep grand cherokee lmtd and the driver's side interior door panel is broken around the door handle. The door handle is hanging on by the cables. I have been dealing with this for over 2 years. The only reason the other door interior panels haven't broken yet is probably because they are rarely used. I do not know why jeep has not been supportive enough to have a recall to replace all 4 door…

I called the recall center multiple times speaking with briana, tiffany and shelena (supervisor) regarding recall p41. All of them stated and have documented that i would be receiving 2 new keys when they fix my recall. The dealership is refusing to give me new keys. I think it is unprofessional to misinform your customers and not hold true to your word. I have been expecting new keys because i am having issues with…

This past week, two of the 4 interior door handles have broken. These are doors that are seldom used. It is only a matter of time that the remaining doors will be affected. This is a safety issue because you cannot exit the vehicle. I have researched this issue on the internet and youtube and it is a very common complaint. Chrysler should recall this defective part - the cheep plastic they decided to use just…

Chrysler has a recall on my jeep since 2014, that hasn't been fix or done. I'm having problems (cuts off and all lights comes on). Took to the jeep place and they state; oh no! This isn't because of the recall. Wrong answer. They were wanting me to spend thousands of dollars to fix things not wrong with my car. No warranty with what they were gone to fix. Took it somewhere else and they found the problem. "the…

Out of the 4 interior door panels, 3 of them are broken! My vehicle is not under warranty anymore and the price to get this fixed is ridiculous! I've been told by several other jeep owners that the same thing has happened to them. My main concern is that this is a safety hazard because if something were to happen they person/persons in the front passenger and/or both rear doors couldn't get out. I drive my jeep…

My sons vehicle will randomly shift out of drive into third gear causing serious safety concerns. If you turn the car off and turn the car back on it resets but the problem can reoccur at any time while driving. We have taken to a jeep dealership and they reloaded some software but that did not fix the problem. This is a known problem as an internet search reveals many people with the same problem.

The car would die after being at a stop sign and accelerating to pull out into an intersection leaving my daughter with no power. This has happened at least 3 to 4 times since we purchased this jeep from the first owner. We've been waiting for months to get this corrected. I call the local dealer every 3-4 months trying to get this resolved. With the first incident and maybe the second, the recall hadn't been…
