Description of the problem	Takata recall: i was in an accident with my 2006 grand cherokee. The accident was due to the ignition switch and the vehicle powering down while in drive, or in use. Injuries were suffered due to the airbag's none deployment. After taking the vehicle to the dealer and attempting to have two recalls replaced, i was told there presently was no available fix, or replacement for recall p41. The vehicle was serviced in 2015 at fitzpatrick's chrysler jeep (430 e main street, ansonia, ct 06401 (203) 734-3318) for recalls p41(ignition switch) & n23(powertrain transfer case electrical system). In january of 2012 with 37k on the vehicle there was the first of two accidents that relate to recall p41. This accident was due to unresponsive braking and steering, which was caused by the ignition switch moving from the on position to the off position while the vehicle was in drive, or in use. This accident happened when attempting to stop the vehicle (rte. 80 east haven, ct) i noticed the vehicle was unresponsive. I used both feet and hands to apply the breaks, while simultaneously wrapping both hands around the lower half of the steering wheel and pulling upward with my biceps to apply additional downward momentum to the break pedal, but still i could not stop the vehicle. Injuries were sustained and out pocket costs for this accident total over $7000 dollars. The second accident happened in 2016. Not realizing the vehicle was off while attempting to bring the vehicle to a full stop on the highway (rte. 15 no haven, ct.), i had a collision. The force of the impact slammed my face into the steering wheel. I was dazed and confused, wondering, why hadn't the airbags deployed. This is the second incident i've had with this vehicle that was directly related to the ignition switch. And, in both accidents airbags were never deployed. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
