FOR SEVERAL MONTHS MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN SHUTTING OFF WHILE I AM DRIVING DUE TO THE KEY FOB POPPING OUT OF PLACE. I WENT TO THE DEALER IN JANUARY 2015 AND WAS TOLD THE PART IS NOT READY AND TO CALL FOR AN UPDATE. I HAVE CALLED AND BEEN BACK SEVERAL TIMES ONLY TO BE PLACED ON A WAITING LIST. I HAVE BEEN CONTACTING THEM AND GETTING THE SAME RESPONSE THE PART IS NOT AVAILABLE. ON 9/16/2015 WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE I NOTICED THE NAVIGATION/RADIO CONSOLE START TO PIXILATE AND BECOME INOPERABLE THEN THE CONSOLE BLACKED OUT, AFTER THAT THE ENTIRE DASH BOARD LIT UP AND I RECEIVED SEVERAL SYSTEM WARNINGS (SERVICE GAUGES, PARK ASSIST DISABLED, CHECK SENSORS, SERVICE SUSPENSION, MY ENGINE LIGHT AND WIPERS CAME ON, I WAS UNABLE TO SIGNAL, USE MY LIGHTS OR TURN OFF THE WIPERS) ALL OF THIS HAPPENED WHILE I WAS DRIVING. I MADE A RIGHT TURN INTO THE PARKING LOT OUT OF FEAR AT THIS TIME I HEARD THE KEY FOB POP BACK AND THE CAR COMPLETELY POWERED DOWN AND I WAS UNABLE TO BREAK BECAUSE THE BRAKES LOCKED UP. THE PARKING LOT WAS SEMI-EMPTY SO I WAS ABLE TO MANEUVER UNTIL IS ROLLED TO A STOP. I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO DIE. I NEED A RESOLUTION NOW, I STILL HAVE TWO YEARS WORTH OF PAYMENTS LEFT AND I WANT THIS PROBLEM RESOLVED.

Chrysler Group LLC (Chrysler) is recalling certain model year 2008 Chrysler 300 vehicles manufactured May 31, 2007, to May 12, 2008, Dodge Magnum vehicles manufactured May 23, 2007, to May 12, 2008, Dodge Charger vehicles manufactured May 24, 2007, to May 12, 2008, Jeep Commander vehicles manufactured April 3, 2007, to May 12, 2008, and Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles manufactured March 21, 2007, to May 12, 2008. In the affected vehicles, the ignition key (FOBIK) may not return to the "ON" position after being rotated to the "START" position, instead sticking between the two positions. Potentially, while the vehicle is being driven, the ignition may inadvertently move through the "RUN" position to the "ACCESSORY" or "OFF" ignition position, turning off the engine.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the ignition stays between "START" and "ON" positions it could cause loss of certain electrical functions. If the ignition key inadvertently moves into the "OFF" or "ACCESSORY" position, the engine will turn off, which will then depower various key safety systems including but not limited to air bags, power steering, and power braking. Loss of functionality of these systems may increase the risk of crash and/or increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash.
Remedy: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the ignition switch and key FOBs, free of charge. The recall began August 19, 2015. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is P57.
Chrysler Group LLC (Chrysler) is recalling certain model year 2005-2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles manufactured February 11, 2004, through March 9, 2010; and 2006-2010 Jeep Commander vehicles manufactured January 31, 2005, through March 10, 2010. A transfer case electrical failure may result in an unintentional shifting of the transfer case into the neutral position.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the vehicle shifts into neutral, it may roll away increasing the risk of a crash or personal injury.
Remedy: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will reflash the final drive controller which governs the transfer case, with new software, free of charge. The recall began on August 15, 2013. Owners may contact Chrysler at 1-800-247-9753. Chrysler's recall campaign number is N23.
