| Description of the problem | My jeep liberty limited manufactured oct 23 2007 reference to 14v567000 jeep vehicles april 3 2007 to may 12 2008 ignition key (fobik) (exactly what is happening to my car) the ignition key (fobik) may not return to the "on" position after being rotated to the "start" position, instead sticking between the two positions. Potentially, while the vehicle is being driven, the ignition may inadvertently move through the "run" position to the "accessory" or "off" ignition position, turning off the engine. This has been happening off and on for more then 3 months now. Consequence summary: the ignition stays between "start" and "on" positions causes loss of certain electrical functions. Engines stops, stater continues running, all the dash lights go on and etc. Talking with chrysler today have yet to add jeep 2008 limited liberty to their recall list. I'm would like to have my car added to list if the government needs to this serious problems. The discussing part it is my fault if any serious accidents happens and i did not have chrysler do required repairs with charging me for it. My problem with this any repair record of could be lost. ( this seems to be the trend with serious problems ) |
