KEY WILL NOT TURN. IGNITION IS LOCK. IT WAS PARKED. NEXT DAY, WILL WOULD NOT TURN. NEED A RECALL, THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN AND IS HAZARDOUS TO WOMEN BEING STRANDED ON HIGHWAYS. THIS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO BE PAID BY CONSUMERS FOR A DEFECT IN A CHRYSLER PRODUCT. *TR

2002 JEEP LIBERTY WILL NOT START WHEN TURNING KEY IN IGNITION. FROM WHAT I'VE READ ONLINE, THIS IS A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM. I'M TRYING TO FIND A PLACE TO REPAIR; FIRST SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID THAT THEY CANNOT DO IT BECAUSE A DEALERSHIP WILL NEED TO REPROGRAM THE KEY TO THE MECHANICS OF THE STEERING COLUMN. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN HAPPENING SEVERAL TIMES IN THE LAST WEEK. VERY PROBLEMATIC SINCE WE LIVE IN OHIO AND HAVE A 15 MONTH OLD. CANNOT AFFORD TO BE STRANDED WITH A TODDLER IN FRIGID WEATHER. *TR

WHILE TOWING OUR 2002 JEEP LIBERTY LE BEHIND AN RV, WITH KEY IN THE FIRST CLICK POSITION, THE KEYS HAVE TWICE FALLEN OUT OF THE IGNITION SWITCH AND CAUSED THE FRONT WHEELS TO LOCK IN AN OTHER THAN STRAIGHT-AHEAD POSITION. THIS MEANS THE SWITCH HAS ROTATED, ON ITS OWN, TO THE OFF POSITION. IN THE FIRST INSTANCE, IN 2004, THERE WAS NO DAMAGE OTHER THAN SOME SCUFFING ON THE EDGES OF THE TIRES - DUE TO THE WHEELS BECOMING LOCKED IN AN ANGLED STATE. IN THE SECOND INSTANCE, IN 2008, THERE WAS APPROXIMATELY $2,300.00 DAMAGE TO THE RIGHT FRONT OF THE JEEP. CHRYSLER HAS BEEN CONTACTED, TWICE IN 2008, BUT STATED THAT THE PROBLEM WAS CAUSED BY THE TIRE MANUFACTURER, RATHER THAN BY THE WHEELS LOCKING. I WILL BE SENDING THE TWO LETTERS WHICH I SENT TO CHRYSLER, ALONG WITH A COVER LETTER TO YOUR OFFICE, WITH PHOTOS SHOWING THE...

IGNITION KEY WILL NOT TURN ONCE IT IS IN THE IGNITION. BECAUSE OF THIS THE CAR CANNOT BE STARTED. THE GEAR SHIFTER CANNOT BE MOVED INTO NEUTRAL. THE KEY, ROCKING THE CAR, TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL, WORKING THE GEAR SHIFTER, CHANGING THE TILT OF THE STEERING COLUMN, HAVE NO AFFECT ON THE SITUATION. WILL NOT RELEASE THE STEERING COLUMN. THERE HAVE BEEN VARIATIONS OF THIS HAPPENING OVER THE LAST YEAR AND AFTER A FEW JIGGLES IT WORKED JUST FINE, BUT NOW THE IGNITION WILL NOT TURN. *TR
