Our car was unable to start and thought the key fob battery was faulty. When the key fob was replaced the electronics in the car went completely heywire and the care was unable to move or start but the radio was on, the windshield wipers were on. We then turned the car off and and waited for a tow. The car then started and was able to be drove for several miles. Later in the day the car again would not start or able to be opened. The car was towed and the dealership stated the shifter was faulty. They have now replaced the shifter twice. The first time the shifter was replaced the mechanic brought it to me and they were unable to get it out of drive at the dealership. They immediately took it back to repair it again. They replaced the shifter again. I drove the car home and then started the car with the remote start, got in the care and received the message that the shifter needed to be serviced. I immediately returned the car to the dealer.

Vehicle does not reliably start when the brake and engine button are pushed. The dashboard lights up, but there is no message and vehicle fails to start. I often have to try 3-4 times to get the vehicle to start, ultimately having the key at the push start button. Key fob batteries have been replaced several times, star case was opened, and win module replaced. Vehicle has been in for service many times for this issue, which remains. Chrysler case management is well aware of the issue. The only "possible" connection found is an incompatibility with cup led lighting and key fob technology. In addition to being frustrating, it is a safety issue.
