The vehicle is stopping for unknown reasons while driving. Phone Dodge Chrysler in cerritos regarding the recall that is affecting my vehicle and was told no parts are available to repair wireless ignition node module or r25 as required by the national traffic and motor vehicle safety act to repair the vehicle at the current time. This is unacceptable as the vehicle is cutting off for unknown reasons. I was told by diane that all I could do is get on the waiting list that extends over two months and I would be contacted when the part is available.

We got the first recall for the ignition switch months and months ago which advised that the dealer would call us when they got the part. We started having trouble with the ignition switch and called the dealer to ask when they would be getting the part to fix the car. They had no idea. We continued to have trouble with the ignition switch and made an appointment at the dealer. At the same time we filed a complaint with you. They said yes, there was a problem and ordered the part on August 13, 2015. While waiting for the part, we got another safety recall for the wireless ignition node module which said to contact the dealer right away to schedule an appointment and have the dealer hold the part or order the part before the appointment. As I said, they ordered the part August 13, 2015, six weeks ago. I called again today and they still do not have the part. With the ignition not functioning properly, this has been extremely frustrating and all we get when we call is that it is not in.

When we went to crank the car, which cranked just fine 2 hours earlier, it would not start. The ignition would turn but nothing happened. Also all lights and electronics would not cut on. After doing web research, I discovered that there was a recall on the ignition ( win module). I had the car towed to Dodge because it would not start or move. They replaced the win module and it runs fine. They told me I would get reimbursed through Chrysler because it is a recall part. I paid 450. 00 for the repair. Now Chrysler corp. Is telling me I will not be reimbursed for the repair because they have not released the part. And better yet when I get a 2nd notice of the recall, I still have to have it fixed. I had no choice but to fix the car because it is my son's only way of going and he works full time. It says on the recall website they will reimburse you so what do I need to do to get my money back? should I get a lawyer? please help!.

The vehicle was being operated on interstate 264 at a speed of approximately 60 mph. Suddenly, and without warning, the vehicle lost all power and slowed to approximately 10-15 mph. The vehicle had to be towed to a local Dodge dealer where it was determined that the ignition win module had failed which also caused the electronic gear selection module to fail. The failure placed the occupants of the vehicle in extreme peril because it was sudden and on a busy interstate highway. There was absolutely no place to pull off of the roadway because of ongoing construction. The dealer representative stated that this was a common occurrence and that the dealer had replaced thousands of these modules.

Vehicle is experiencing major safety defect similar to recent gm ignition recall. On numerous occasions vehicle has experienced sudden engine shut-off at varying speeds including highway 65mph plus. Complete electrical system shut down deactivates all onboard systems, including power-steering, breaking, and air bag deployment. Vehicle shut down occurs randomly. Re-occurrence has been as frequently as hours between similar occurrence to as long as 5,000 miles between occurrences. Vehicle has been in for repairs to dealer without dealer able to recreate defect. Various electrical system parts were replaced without successfully curing the defect. Two separate dealerships recommended wireless ignition (win) module replacement but Chrysler has refused to send the part. Chrysler customer care states that win module is only replaced when vehicle fails to start at all times. Vehicle owner requested replacement part as recommended by certified technicians but Chrysler will not release part to VIN associated vehicle. Therefore, vehicle has not been repaired. Current mileage is 78,000. Identical occurences have been reported to NHTSA under id numbers: 10294768, 10369140, 10370988, 10386410, 10390065, 10396098, 10508333, 10520262, and 10525632. Vehicle defect has serious potential for death and serious injury due to product failure (airbags failing to deploy).

Car randomly began to shut off right after starting or sometimes while driving. It got to the point where it shut off and it wouldn¿t start again. I towed it to the dealership and they advised me that I need to replace ignition module and key fob also need to reprogram. The total came up to $ 696. 18. Two years went by and it was working ok until one day again, randomly began to shut off right after starting or sometimes while driving. Is this issue related to the Chrysler ignition recall?

This problem began shortly after I purchased (in 2010) this 60,000mi one-owner car a 2008 Dodge Charger 5. 7l rwd police package. The key fails to be removed from the ignition key switch. The key switch cannot be turned to the "off" position to be removed and stays stuck in the "accessory" position. This is a real safety issue because the key must be left in the ignition switch opening the possibility to vehicle theft or any child or other passerby making entry into the vehicle and starting & driving away. Leaving the key "on" in the accessory position subsequently drains the battery, after only a matter of hours the battery is dead and leaves the owner repeatedly stranded. Leaving the accessory circuits energized for long periods also increases the chances of a vehicle fire. I took the car to a local Dodge dealer in lumberton NJ, they told me it was a defective win module. I paid for the removal & installation of a new win module and the car exhibits the same exact problem as before. I took it back to the dealer to have it verified that it's still occurring and had to argue with them for a refund only to be given dealer credit. The dealer then showed me a Dodge engineer's service bulletin describing this issue perfectly. Often these symptoms are symptomatic of a win module but if the win is not at fault, Dodge states that the "esm" module (electronic shift module) is at fault and needs to be replaced. The esm is located on the steering column in a 2008 Dodge Charger 5. 7l rwd police package car and is connected to the column shift gear selector. The Dodge dealer states the esm module is not available for replacement and the entire steering column must be replaced due to the part not available for sale separately. Every other module for the Charger is available for purchase except the esm and Dodge service wants $2400 to needlessly replace the entire column.
