Note as an advisory that dodge/chrysler/fiat may still have ignition problems related to the federal/chrysler safety recall for fob/ignition switch failure of not returning to run position after trying to start vehicle. I just had my 2008 dodge charger 80,635mi serviced for the ignition recall service # p57/the federal safety agency 14v‑567 of which took 13 months before repairs were made, and after the new switch and new fob's were returned to me (installed of course) fob's are of chrysler and not dodge (no safety issue because of names are different) but after only having my car for just 2 days of being returned to me, the "new" ignition switch now is defective with the same problem as before, and just in one day itself,just starting the car up, the "return to run position" had failed (4) four times, and just yesterday 01-16-16 twice when ignition is returned to the off position, I was unable to remove the fob from the ignition switch until restarting the car then shut it down again...chrysler/dodge & fiat n.a.u.s.a. As well with the federal safety agency should look into this as a reoccurring problem before it is to late...I had spent 5 years with the original ignition begin broken, and dodge and dealers cared less of my emails about the failure. I have also advised the local dodge dealer/service dept of the problem the day of the situation and will seek replacement or further actions that will be taken for repairs..chrysler/dodge corporation will also be notified, and I will try and post new developments as they happen...
