I was driving the van on a major road at 45-50 MPH, when the engine cut out. Power steering was disabled, I was able to pull van off onto side street and restart. I don't know if fob switched to acc or off, I was just upset it stalled on major road. Per article I have read, fob can move out of place if ride is bumpy, well I live in michigan where pot holes are sometimes unavoidable. Road was bumpy that I was traveling on. I know their is a recall on van l25 for the ignition switch, I have since removed the fob from my key ring and will only drive with fob in ignition.

Received important safety recall for fobik on vehicle in late sep 2014 (6 months ago). Fobik causes continued problems (not seating correctly, getting stuck in accessory mode, not allowing vehicle to start). Dealer can't repair due recall l25/the federal safety agency 14v‑373 (they need the same part that remains, as of this date, 'unavailable'. How long does an 'important safety recall' get to languish before it is a priority for repair? 6 months certainly does not infer 'a safety priority'. Why issue a safety recall notice months before the remedy part is available to enable a repair? This seems a bit backwards.

The date above is not real. I don't know the dates for these incidents. I am waiting since sept for a repair on this recall and my notice says I have a right to have it corrected quickly and at no cost. I have had problems in the past but no the one described. Do seem related to key not being seated correctly. After parking, it is in reverse when I return to vehicle (happened a few times.) the key is difficult to remove (often). A few times I put the car in park and removed the key and got out and my radio and wipers continued to run until I put the key back and jiggled it a few times to get all to turn off.

The vehicle shutoff in the middle of an intersection after putting the vehicle in motion after a red light turned green. The vehicle has a hard time starting recently and we believe it's due to the ignition recall. We contacted our dealer and they said a bad key problem is separate from the win module detent ring problem. They investigated the problem and said a bad win module is the cause for not starting. My belief is that the loose detent ring caused a failure of the key due to a bad connection for years. I'm also afraid we could be seriously injured before the recall as this is our only vehicle. We called dodge and they said nothing could be done safety wise for us until the recalled part is manufactured. I asked them if they could provide us a rental vehicle until then they said no. So I said you know there's something dangerous and yet there's nothing you can do and we are totally on our own if we get injured, to which they replied "yes". We want to file a complaint against dodge/chrysler for not looking out for our safety. Thanks, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
The fab key falls out of the dash. Sometimes kills the engine. The recall for this problem was june 16, 2011 and to this date they still haven't even started to fix it. We have not been in an accident because of it, but it could happen at anytime.
