2004 Jeep GRAND CHEROKEE Steering Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1399523
Internal NHTSA #	11014697
Manufacurer	Chrysler (FCA US LLC)
Brand	JEEP
Model	GRAND CHEROKEE
Model Year	2004
File date	29/07/17
Component	STEERING
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Ignition switch-p41. I went to the garage one saturday morning on my way to work and could not crank up my vehicle. The ignition would literally not turn the steering wheel or anything. The lights to the car would blink and my car wouldn't start with the key in the ignition; however, the safety recall is on a model car one year after mine. This is not the first time the ignition would not crank up. One time, i literally had to pull over and stop the car only to try and start it again but it wouldn't crank. In order for it to go, i had to bang on the ignition park to get it to turn the key and further start the ignition. The issues are the same as the recall but i'm out of pocket some $687. 00 at the dealership, which i had to wait 3 hours for a tow truck to come through. I do not understand why this model car was not covered under warranty as well. I am a single parent and it is so frustrating to try and provide for my child when i can't use the only transportation that i have plus the fact that it costs an arm and a leg just to fix. I cannot afford another car note at this time. Please consider the 2004 models in this recall.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.

Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
