Recalls and investigations
Electrical system, ignition, switchJul 21, 2014
This defect can affect the safe operation of the airbag system. Until this recall is performed, drivers should adjust their seat to allow clearance between the driver's knee and the ignition key, and remove all items from their key ring, leaving only the vehicle key. Chrysler Group LLC (Chrysler) is recalling certain model year 2005-2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles manufactured February 11, 2004, to July 5, 2007, and 2006-2007 Jeep Commander vehicles manufactured January 31, 2005, to July 5, 2007. In the affected vehicles, the driver may accidentally hit the ignition key with their knee, unintentionally knocking the key out of the run position, turning off the engine.
If the ignition key inadvertently moves into the OFF or ACCESSORY position, the engine will turn off, which will then depower various key safety systems including but not limited to air bags, power steering, and power braking. Loss of functionality of these systems may increase the risk of crash and/or increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash.
Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the ignition switch, free of charge. Chrysler sent interim notifications to owners in September 2014. The recall began on October 9, 2015. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is P41.

If the vehicle shifts into neutral, it may roll away increasing the risk of a crash or personal injury.
Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will reflash the final drive controller which governs the transfer case, with new software, free of charge. The recall began on August 15, 2013. Owners may contact Chrysler at 1-800-247-9753. Chrysler's recall campaign number is N23.

I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE FROM CHRYSLER (P41 / NHTSA 14V-438) IN *JULY 2014 REGARDING MY 2007 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. I TOOK MY CAR INTO THE DEALER (STEPHEN WADE AUTO, SAINT GEORGE,UTAH) AND WAS TOLD THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE AND THEY WOULD CONTACT ME WHEN THEY HAD NEWS. I CALLED STEPHEN WADE ONE YEAR LATER IN *JULY 2015*. THEY SAID THE PART WAS STILL NOT AVAILABLE AND THEY WOULD CALL ME. TODAY ( OCT. 13, 2015 ) I RECEIVED ANOTHER SAFETY RECALL NOTICE BUT THIS TIME IT IS FROM FIAT CHRYSLER FOR EXACTLY THE SAME RECALL AS I RECEIVED JULY 2014. I DECIDED TO CONTACT YOU / NHTSA. I DON'T WANT THE UTAH HIGHWAY PATROL TO BE PICKING ME UP WITH A BLOTTER ON THE INTERSTATE 15 WHEN I GO AIR BORN BECAUSE SOMEONE CAN'T SUPPLY A REPLACEMENT IGNITION SWITCH. THIS HAS DEFINITELY PUT A CRAMP ON MY ABILITY TO VISIT THE GRANDSON BECAUSE HE'S 350 MILES AWAY AND I'M REALLY NOT PLEASED HOW THIS IS BEING HANDLED BY ???? IF YOU NEED COPIES / PHOTOS OF MY NOTICES, PLEASE CONTACT ME AND I'LL GLADLY UPLOAD THEM TO YOU. SHOULD I CONTACT A LAWYER ? THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR
