I'm not getting anywhere with Chrysler company recall service. My 2006 Jeep Commander has a p41 recall on it, it will do all sorts of crazy and unsafe things when driving. Examples: the Jeep will not start, when starting it the ignition switch clicks, the power is on for everything. Jeep told me to put in drive and then back in park, then try to start it. That does not work. Driving down interstate the Jeep will shut off and the power steering goes out. Once pulled over it needs restarted and then it runs again. It also shifts to 3rd gear when coming off the exit ramp when speeding up to get on interstate, again I have to pull over and turn it off and restart it. This is very unsafe and now I have no transportation. Calling Chrysler, they said that they will not help or provide a rental car. They say every time I call it's not their fault that the manufacturer of the ignition replacement part is not escalating the order and there's nothing they can do for me. They want us to drive a very unsafe vehicle instead of providing us with a rental car. They also said that they have no time frame of when the part is to be available to the dealers so this issue can be corrected and that they can't just give out rentals to everyone without knowing when the issue will be fixed. I need help, I need a way to work and I need a safe vehicle.

Vehicle would not start and we had experienced this off and on so we replaced the battery. Within a month, car would not start again. While trying to get it started the lights came on, no start. Waited, tried again, dimmer lights; waited again nothing! electrical system totally non functioning. We have also had stalling issues and car automatically changing gears. It feels like it just can't get speed up and not even a high rate, just in town. I was driving and noticed the gear went from drive to 3rd! I tried turning it off and restarting with no luck and then that stalling feeling all the way to work. The truck has a mind of it's own but it's not working!.

The problem started today out of the blue on a cold wet day. I drove home from work at 7am in the rain and parked. At 2pm I tried to start the vehicle and it wouldn't start. It would just stall. After several attempts at starting it, it would just stall. Then it wouldn't start at all so I let it sit for a while. When I went to start it again, it would start but all the lights were flashing, the radio was going on and off, the windshield wipers would go and stop. I rented a code reader that read u1411, no connection to the problem so I cleared the code and it fixed the problem for about an hour. Now it doesn't fix it. Jeep says they don't know unless I take it in for a diagnostic. But I looked online and found lots and lots of Jeep owners having the exact same complaint. All of their complaints started the same way, in the rain and without warning and they were all fixed the same way, replacing the ignition switch. It appears to me that there is a problem but Jeep isn't addressing the problem. I don't think I should have to go pay them to diagnose and fix a problem that they already know about, but won't admit!.
