I own a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. i received a recall on a part in july of 2014. it is now april 2015. there is still no part to replace this ignition switch problem. i have children that i need to drive to and from school. this vehicle is not safe. my husband has seen now at least 3 vehicles (same make, model and year) in car accidents. these car were completely totaled. there is no fixing them. one vehicle a car blew up because the ignition switch. this is ridiculous. almost a year now, and there is still not part to fix this problem. and i can't sell my vehicle to anybody because then i could be sued because of the ignition switch recall. your jeep dealerships will not buy them back for what they are worth because of the ignition switch recall. i get below value offers. i will not buy jeep again. but the fact that jeep is taking so long to fix this issue is ridiculous. when people start dying because of it, then you will be sued for those deaths because that ignition switch recall was not fixed in a decent amount of time. i figured 6 months max. its now almost a year and again still no replacement part. i'm disgusted at the fact that nothing is being done about this. no one seems to care or realize the potential danger this ignition switch causes. i wouldn't wish this upon anyone but it may happen to you just so you open up your eyes and realize what is really going on. *tr
