Ignition switch issue is still not resolved. I called Chrysler and they told me that there is no eta on when they are going to receive the parts to get my vehicle fixed. I have recently had issues with my car not starting at all in addition to the ignition switch sticking. I took it to the local shop and they fixed the ignition relay. After that, I received the ignition recall from Chrysler. Chrysler is refusing to reimburse me for the ignition relay as they indicated that, at this time, they cannot confirm that it is part of the recall (relay failed due to corrosion) as the representative was not sure what would need to be fixed in the recall ?????? Chrysler has also refused to provide me anything in writing of their denial of reimbursement for the corroded ignition relay. The representative would only give me her first name, jasmine, and no other assistance. She assured me that they would notify me when the ignition switch comes in and Chrysler has a record of my call and claim. This is not very comforting knowing that I am driving with a safety recall and ongoing issues; no estimation on when the parts are going to be ready; let alone when it will be fixed. Bad part in my car and dealing with a company that will not even give the courtesy of providing some type of documentation! I am required to rely on them to have a record of my individual issue when they cannot even give me an approximate date on when the parts will even be available. Unbelievable!!!!.

My 2008 Chrysler 300 had received two notices for recall,1 for the ignition switch and 1 for the airbag/ I called Chrysler corporate for an update for the ignition switch recall which I received about 10 months ago and I was told it was no estimated date when the part will become available and I will have to wait ;after multiple phone calls I asked for them to give me a rental car in order to drive in a safe car while they will keep my car and fix the ignition and the airbag issue but I was denied the rental car and was told I will have to deal with the issue ,they will not rent a car for my family and they do not have any estimate when the ignition part will be available;even if I insisted about the safety of my family and the fact a recall for the airbag was in to, they did not care ;I went to the Chrysler dealership too and the response was the same ,it looks they are on the same page;no rental car for me and as they insinuated to me if we got into a car accident " though luck"/ I am not sure what to do now ; I tried to contact Chrysler corporate multiple times,. The Chrysler dealership the same and still not have a solution to my problem;I am ignored by Chrysler by some issues in my car very dangerous and life threatening but nothing had been done and no estimate in perspective. I will need some help to have the issue resolved;my wife was driving the car even yesterday which stalled on the middle of the street again for no reason and it happens all the time ;as my wife says " she leave her life into god's hands "I do not think this is an acceptable and responsible behavior from a such big corporation and something should be done to help customers like me in distress. Thank you for listening.

Driving on highway during cold winter day (20 degrees or below) when the cars computer system shut down and a few seconds later re-booted. The car continued to do so during the drive home and during the next week until I could get an appointment with local dealership. Took to dealership and they were unsure of the issue. Showed them a video that was taken while driving on the highway (very unsafe to have your car totally shut down while going 70 mph). They replaced the ignition switch -- not warrantied, $300 repair. This has happened every year with the exception of 2012 (weather in region was warmer and didn't meet conditions as previous years). Now it's 2013 and the same thing happened during a recent blizzard. Dealership says their hands are tied, but I think this is a Chrysler defective part issue. Something in very cold weather is causing the computer system to shut down, which could cause a driver to lose control of the vehicle. This is a scary situation, especially if you don't know what's happening. I have video of the issue from a recent commute, as well as the documentation of the on-going issue starting back in 2010. Chrysler was contacted on 2/21/2013 with the details. My utmost concern is that this will (or has) caused a fatality and Chrysler seems unwilling to acknowledge the problem with this defective part. .

I received notification regarding the recall of the airbags in my vehicle over a year ago and of my ignition over 6 months ago but have not to date received a letter to have my vehicle repaired.

When I first bought the car in 2009, I had issues with the ignition switch. I would start the car and nothing would work the radio, inside dashboard lights, etc. I took the car to Chrysler several times and they could not determine what the problem was.

All electrical functions flashing. . . Lost radio, headlights, airbag lights flashing, cooler blower stopped. This condition happened to my vehicle multiple times while driving and all different speeds. While driving at night automatic headlight sensor would turn headlights off while traveling. Condition started to happen daily so dealer changed the ignition switch and problem hasn't happened since.
