In August 2015, my car would not start so I had to replace the ignition module and purchase a new key ($1000). On October 30, 2015, I was driving on the highway at night in the rain when my car just shut off. I was not able to steer at all but I managed to pull off the road. Everything else in the car worked (lights, radio, everything on the panel) the only thing that did not work was the car. My car will not start back up. I had to tow the car back to the dealership. How could something like this happen when I replaced the ignition module that seems to be the cause of this problem? I am very lucky we were not involved in a terrible accident or even cause a death.

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.
I was driving my 2009 Dodge Charger about a year ago and the car just cut off while going down the road. I was able to pull over (lucky I avoided causing an accident) and it restarted with no problem. I have had no other problems until a month ago I came out of the mall to go home and the car would not start. Finally after 10 minutes of trying and praying, the car started right up and got me home which was about 50 miles away. It would not start again after that. I have replaced the battery and many fuses. The car started one time when we first replaced the battery but as soon as I turned it off it would not start again. We figured out how to start the car one more time to get it to the Dodge dealership. I am having to replace the ignition module and purchase a new key. I am looking at a $960. 00 bill. There was a recall on this exact part for the manufacture date of may 2007 - may 2008. My car was manufactured August 2008. I believe this faulty part was also used on my car. After reading all the complaints for this year model, we should be included in a recall. $960. 00 just to replace a key!!!!.

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!.

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).
I encountered a rough bridge expansion joint on the highway, the key fell out of the ignition killing the engine in heavy fast moving traffic. I was able to coast to the shoulder, it took four or five tries to re-start the car. This problem has continued for over two months. Dodge diagnosed the problem as a bad win module. This same part was a recall on 37,355 other cars of this make and year, but not on mine based on the VIN? Dodge will do nothing to cover the fix, they say the repair part is unavailable, I'm forced to drive it as is and take my chances.
