Description of the problem	Beginning around the week of june 7th, i began experiencing issues with my commander. I would put the key in the ignition and it wouldn't start. The lights, radio etc would come on but the car wouldn't "turn over". After a couple of attempts, it would start. The following week while driving on highway 95 in boston, the car stopped unexpectedly. I was able to make it to the side of the road and was very shaken up. I was able to start the car again and drove home. The following day it happened again while driving and i immediately called the dealership. On june 14th i had the car towed there because i was afraid to drive. I was told that i need a wireless ignition module but there were none available & chrysler was waiting on it from the manufacturer. I was also told that there was a waiting list of approx 1,700 customers waiting for this part and several hundred, like me couldn't drive their car. I escalated to chrysler customer service who have continued to give me the run around and as of today they have no status on the part. I have been paying for a rental car since 6/15. I did some research online and just by typing in the name of the part and found several forums where other jeep owners are experiencing the same issue. I believe that chrysler needs to look into this to see if their is a larger issue or at least make the replacement parts available.
