There was a recall on this model for the ignition key switch. I had it repaired through the recall on 1-13-2016. It is now 2021 and the problem has returned. When key is in the ignition it turns but won't start the car. I have to repeatedly turn it on and off. While driving the dash light come on indicating a slippery brake lights warning. When I first start it up, I can't get it out of park with brake applied. I have to turn it off and remove key and re-insert and turn it on. I contacted Chrysler they said there was only a 2 year warranty on the recalled part and I would have to pay for a new key unit. This is a repeat problem and needs another recall.

Driving down the road and vehicle shut off causing the vehicle to lose power steering and brakes. Was able to pull over, put it in park and started back up again. Dealer advised that appears to be the win module (ignition) and that it is on back order with Chrysler and cannot even order the part without contacting Chrysler. They contaced Chrysler who informed them that part would not be released at this time and would have to wait due to other vehicles ahead of ours being affected. No estimated time it would be received. Wife is afraid to drive the vehicle and rightfully so as this could cause a serious accident if it occured while driving on an interstate or around a turn.
My wife was driving our 2009 Chrysler town and county down the road when the vans engine completely turned off as if she shut the ignition down. Thankfully my wife was able to coast into a parking area where after some time she was able to restart the van and proceed on her way. Numerous times I have tried to start the van and the engine would not turn over until the key was taken out and flipped around and then it would start. Two days ago the van would not start at all but all if the key fob functions worked and all of the electrical gauges came on. After the van was towed to the dealership I was contacted and told that a new win module and key fobs would have to be purchased costing approximately 800 dollars.

I called Chrysler warranty department and the person told me by checking my VIN that my van is not effected by this problem and advised me to take the van to the dealer and get it checked for the problem.

They should include my van and all vans manufactured with this type of ignition modules in the recall and fix them free of cost. These van are hazardous to the occupants and the people drive behind them.

I have a 2009 Chrysler limited town and country which I started having ignition turnover and random electrical problems with in June 2013. I have a lifetime Chrysler warranty which along with my generous dealership, has provided me to date with 2 dozen+ rentals while my car has been at my dealership sometimes up to 1 month at a time. My car problems began abruptly in June 2013 when I drove my vehicle to church. Upon reentering the car to leave, it would not start. I knew it was not my battery since it was recently replaced with aaa and thought it might be the alternator. The aaa tow truck driver tested the battery and alternator which were fine. He was unable to start the van and towed it to the dealer. The dealer called me the next day to ask what was wrong with the vehicle since it started on first attempt. No codes have ever been present and the internal systems wipe them out. This issue is still unresolved after 16 mo. I was stranded 1 more time requiring a tow and then the dealer worked with star engineers in detroit and replaced both fobik keys 2x,win module,ignition module etc. These repairs have not stopped the problems but at least allow the car to turnover by 3rd attempt or while waiting. It has created great anxiety and pain and suffering to my family along with serious safety concerns for fear of being randomly stranded while traveling. I have filed a formal complaint with Chrysler to be ignored and told "driver error". I along my children, have experienced this turnover problem in 2 t&c 2014 enterprise rentals. In addition, my personal mechanic has had vehicles at his shop which have been basically junked. This fobik issue is not particular to my car but I have friends who have had problems in their jeeps and dodges too. Please come clean Chrysler and be concerned with your customers safety and admit and repair your faulty engineering before someone is killed.
