Description of the problem	I received a recall for my 2005 jeep grand cherokee . This involves the ignition switch. The ignition switch is defective and could catch on fire. I took it to our local dealership after smelling burnt rubber and they found my ignition had indeed melted. My vehicle and others could catch fire at anytime, is there not something you can do? Has not sent parts to dealership for it i had a choice and replacing this with another possible defective switch but that was to come out of my pocket(500. 00)! The recall is over a year old and still no replacements parts have been even designed. Isn't there a time limit on this? I've complained to chrysler and was told there's nothing they can do about till they put out the new part!
