Description of the problem	Important safety recall letter received back november 2014. Chrysler admits to a serious problem with ignition switch with the fobik and they admit in their recall letter that as result of the particular fobik failure could "increase the risk of crash under certain driving conditions." also, the letter states "fobik" spring back may also cause the disabling of one or more of the vehicle's safety features including the frontal airbags. This could increase the risk of vehicle occupant injury during a crash." my complaint is there is still no part available for this problem and it has been over 6 months. I am very concerned and wondering what i can do? What would you do? Love and compassion and gratitude.
