VEHICLE DOESN'T WANT TO START. TRIES TO TURN OVER BUT WON'T. HAD HAPPENED VERY INTERMITTENTLY FOR PAST COUPLE OF YEARS. OVER PAST MONTH HAS HAPPENED ALMOST EVERY TIME I TRY TO START THE CAR. USED TO ONLY DO IT ONCE AND THEN IT WOULD START ON THE SECOND ATTEMPT BUT IS NOW DOING THE "TRY BUT WON'T START" THING 6 AND 7 TIMES IN A ROW BEFORE IT WILL FINALLY TURN OVER. NOW SMELLING RAW FUEL AFTER IT STARTS DUE TO IT TRYING SO MANY TIMES TO CRANK. CALLED DEALERSHIP AND GOT THE SAME EXCUSE AS MANY PEOPLE WHO HAVE COMPLAINTS LISTED HERE..."WE DON'T HAVE THE PARTS YET." I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THEY DON'T HAVE THE PARTS 2 MONTHS AFTER THE RECALL ON SOMETHING LIKE THIS. IN ADDITION TO THE POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUES IF IT BEGINS STALLING IN TRAFFIC LIKE OTHERS ARE REPORTING, IT'S COMPLETELY TRASHING MY STARTER/BATTERY/ETC AS IT SITS THERE AND TRIES TO CRANK MULTIPLE TIMES. I HAVE ZERO CONFIDENCE IN MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP AS I HAVE HAD TONS OF RUN INS WITH THEM OVER WARRANTY WORK DUE TO MULTIPLE PROBLEMS MY JEEP HAS HAD. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. *TR

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE FOR MY 2011 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE IN OCTOBER 2014. THE VEHICLE NOW STRUGGLES TO START ALMOST EVERY TIME IT IS PROMPTED TO. IT USUALLY TAKES TWO OR THREE ATTEMPTS TO SUCCESSFULLY START AFTER IT MAKES A SORT OF REV TYPE OF NOISE AND EVEN PRODUCES AN ODOR WHICH IS SMELT ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE DEALERSHIP HAS TOLD ME THAT THE PART TO CORRECT THE ISSUE IS CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE, AND WHEN IT DOES BECOME AVAILABLE, THERE ARE OVER 20 PEOPLE AHEAD OF ME ON THE WAITING LIST TO BE REPAIRED. THE RECALL STATES THAT THE ISSUE COULD CAUSE THE CAR TO STALL UNEXPECTEDLY WHICH MAKES ME FEARFUL FOR MY, AND OTHERS, SAFETY BEING THAT I DRIVE ON THE INTERSTATE EVERYDAY. *TR

MY VEHICLE IS HAVING ISSUES STARTING/STALLING, AND SOUNDS LIKE THE WATER PUMP AND/OR ALTERNATOR IS FAILING. I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THIS IS ALL TIED TO P54/NHTSA 14V-530. THE TIPM PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE TO FIX THIS ISSUE, AND HAVE NOT BEEN AVAILABLE SINCE I RECEIVED THE FIRST RECALL NOTICE BACK IN OCTOBER 2014. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THE PARTS ARE NOT GOING TO BE AVAILABLE FOR WEEKS, POSSIBLY MONTHS. I CALLED JEEP/CHRYSLER AND THEY ALSO SAID THAT IS THE CAUSE OF MY PROBLEMS AND THEY HAVE NO DATE THAT RECALL REPLACEMENT/CORRECTION PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE. I ASKED THEM WHAT I SHOULD DO SINCE I'M DRIVING A VEHICLE THAT DOESN'T WANT TO START (TAKES MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS), THAT STALLS OUT, AND THAT OTHER COMPONENTS UNDER THE HOOD ARE BEING AFFECTED. THEY SAID THEY WILL NOT COVER ANY TOWING, OR RENTAL COSTS, AND HAD NO GUIDANCE ON WHAT TO DO BESIDES "GOOD LUCK". THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE, I CAN BECOME STRANDED, THE CAR COULD STALL (POTENTIALLY WHILE DRIVING AND THIS CAR IS ALWAYS ON HIGHWAY HIGH SPEED DRIVING), AND I NOW HAVE OTHER PARTS UNDER THE HOOD THAT THIS ISSUE IS TAXING (ALTERNATOR, BATTERY, WATER PUMP, AND I COULD ONLY IMAGINE WHAT ELSE). WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO THAT I'M FORCED TO DRIVE A VEHICLE WITH A RECALL THAT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE? I CAN'T EVEN PAY TO GET THIS FIXED, THERE IS NO SOLUTION AT THIS TIME. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THE VEHICLE IS NOT RECALLED ENTIRELY AND TAKEN OFF THE ROAD, OR THAT IF PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE THERE IS NO RECOURSE. NO FREE TOWING, NO RENTAL CARS READY, NO ABILITY TO TRADE IN OR BUY A NEW VEHICLE. NOTHING. I'M NOT SURE WHAT TO DO NEXT, GET A LAWYER? CONTACT BBB? PLEASE LET ME KNOW AS I DON'T SEE HOW THIS IS LEGAL, I'M BEING FORCED TO DRIVE A VEHICLE WITH A MANUFACTURING DEFECT THAT IS DANGEROUS. THANK YOU [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
