Saw this on a Commander forum.
Looks like a 2 door this time.

This is getting to be f*ing crazy now!!! We pay good money for what we think is a good vehicle and this is what we get. Now I know why so many people buy foreign cars, American manufacturers just don't give a sh!t about the American people. As long as they make the green, they laugh at us all the way to the bank.

Default Honestly...

I'm getting kind of worried now... not so much when I drive but for when the wife uses it. Maybe it's like fight club, where if x + y = $ and that dollar sign is less than the recall... ?

The issue is they have to figure out what the cause is first, before they issue a recall. The problem is with the amount of damage the fire causes it take all the evidence of what happened with it. I am not trying to let Chrysler off the hook just saying its not as easy as you think it is to fix.

It happens to about every vehicle I have ever bought. My last vehicle got recalled by ford for fire hazard. I had to leave it out in the drive way for a while cause they didn't have the recalled parts. You just gotta be careful.
