Some Jeep commander and Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles may experience an unintended change in ignition switch position while driving. This may result in loss of engine power, power steering, and braking assist increasing the risk of a crash and disabling one or more of the vehicles safety features including the frontal airbags their answer is: Incomplete but repair parts are not available this recall has been out for 1 and 1/2 years in light of the GM faulty ignition switch deaths I believe Chrysler has had plenty of time to fix the problem. The ball is your court and my families blood is on your hands.
