“RECALL HAS BEEN OPEN FOR YEARS REGARDING THE IGNITION SWITCH BUT CHRYSLER NEVER HAS THE PART. FURTHER, THIS CAR HAS NUMEROUS REPORTS OF BRAKING ISSUES THAT ARE SPORADIC AND IT CAUSED ME TO REAR-END A VEHICLE ON NOV. 2, LUCKILY AT A VERY LOW RATE OF SPEED. I LET MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE TO INCH FORWARD AND IT WOULD NOT ENGAGE AGAIN WHEN I PRESSED IT AGAIN MOMENTS LATER. MECHANIC COULDN'T REPLICATE THE ISSUE BUT THAT IS TYPICAL FOR CHRYSLER IT SEEMS.”

“UNCERTAIN BUT THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION THE BRAKES FAILED TO STOP THE VEHICLE MAKING CONTACT WITH ANOTHER VECHICLE AT APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH AIRBAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. SEE ALSO 11143883. *DSY *DT *JB”

“ABS ESB INDICATOR LIGHT ON. WHILE DRIVING THROUGH BUSY INTERSECTION, !!BRAKE!! RED INDICATOR CAME ON AND STOPPED MY VEHICLE FROM MOVING. WAS ABLE TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE INTERSECTION TO NOT BE HIT AND RESTART THE JEEP. ONCE RESTARTED NO LIGHTS ON AT ALL. TRACTION CONTROL KEEPS SETTING OFF ON ITS OWN FOR NO REASON CAUSING THE ABS/ESB LIGHTS TO APPEAR. TURN TRACTION CONTROL OFF AND PROBLEM STILL EXIST. BECOMING UNSAFE AND NO WAY TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IS WRONG.”
