NHTSA Complaint #10649547 — 2008 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN

WAS STUCK WITH NO WAY TO START VEHICLE BECAUSE PLASTIC FOB KEY WAS CRACKED AND WOULDN'T START VAN. THERE'S A RECALL ON THE PLASTIC IGNITION MODULE BUT PARTS ARE NOT YET AVAILABLE AND THIS RECALL IS FROM JUNE 2014. THE IGNITION SWITCH HAS MOVED A FEW TIMES WHILE I WAS DRIVING FROM ON TO ACC. CAUSING HARD BRAKES AND STEERING. LUCKILY IT WAS AT LOW SPEEDS AND NO TRAFFIC AROUND. CALLED DEALER TO SEE IF THERE'S A WAY TO START WITH METAL DOOR KEY AND I WAS TOLD NO. ALSO DEALER WANTS TO CHARGE ME TO FIX EVEN THOUGH THERE'S A RECALL OUT ON IT. DODGE IS THE CHEAPEST POS AND UNSAFE CARS PERIOD !!! *TR
