Ignition Switch problems of the 2001 Jeep Wrangler

I had a fire due to a recalled ignition switch that was never repaired, I had no idea when I bought the used Jeep from the dealer. Chrysler is now denying any request to fix the parts damaged by the fire.

Jeep Wrangler sport, 4. 0l was purchased as subsequent owner in 2003(?) in san juan, puerto rico. The problem appeared in maybe 2008 after moving to panama city (panamã¡). An airbag warning light was observed, intermittently, when first starting. Usually a second attempt was successful. Grupo q Chrysler Jeep replaced the ignition switch, at my expense. I was unaware that Chrysler daimler had recalled these vehicles for ignition switch problems in 2003/04, I think. My research revealed that gm/ac-delco was oeming these switches to Chrysler-daimler, and maybe others. The only thing I experienced was an annoyance, but those symptoms seemed to suggest that I may have been driving with disabled air-bags, had I not noticed the light, or if had been non-functional. The question is how many people might still be driving non-gm cars with these defective switches, and why has this not been publicized?.
