Electrical system, ignitionSep 17, 2014
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.
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.
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.

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.
