Additionally, the contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, there was an abnormally strong electrical wiring burning odor inside the vehicle. The contact veered to the side of the road.

The vehicle was taken to a nearby independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed that the failure was related to NHTSA Campaign Number: 07V092000 (Electrical system). The dealer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the recall repair...

I have had my durango for about 2 years, one day I went to start it and it clicked as if battery had died. When I jumped it, it started right up. I noticed that my dash had a tire sensor light and a light saying Overhead lamp on. I turned my overhead switch and all my lights in the car turned on and then off when i turned switch.( normal) so I knew something was up. After doing some research I read about the recall. I Made an appointment on the 15th of June to get a recall for my instrument panel fixed. I dropped my car off at 7 am my appointment was at 8am. I called around 11:30 to get an ETA since I was on a time limit for work and live an hour away. The dealership called to tell me that he needed to take...

Started ran for 30 minutes again just died in the middle of the road. Will not start. If someone would of come over the hills could of hit us with sever injury or possibly death. Still wont run crank over wont run.

The contact owns a 2005 Dodge Durango. The contact stated that the vehicle would lose motive power while driving. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who tested the battery and the alternator however, neither was the cause of the failure. The manufacturer was called however, a representative was not able to be reached. The vehicle was not repaired. After searching online, the contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 07V092000 (Electrical System). The failure mileage was 200,052.

I have had problems with the 4 wheel/ all wheel drive engaging on it's own. The problem exists even when the vehicle is turned off when using the key fob to lock the vehicle. I have on a two occasions have the transmission shift into four wheel low while doing over 55 mph which made the vehicle slow down skidding drastically and made the engine hit high RPMs. After checking online for some Information I've found that it's a problem with many owners of 2004, 2005 and 2006 Durango and Dakota owners and found that the body control module, 4 wheel module and shift actuator was part of the faults. They had disconnected the wire harness to the shift actuator to remedy the chance of having an accident. I have done the same and looked into replacing faulty parts but also found that the fix was also temporary many owners...

Engine is intermittent stalling when driving or taking a sharp corner at Low speed. The vehicle engine has just stalled when driving at different speeds. No check engine lite on at all the engine just stalls and I can restart the engine almost all the time right away the repair facility has no idea what is going on. Need to get this figured out before an accident happens

THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE SVC 4WD SERVICE LIGHT WOULD ILLUMINATE INTERMITTENTLY UPON START OF...

ALL OF A SUDDEN ON 6/3/2020 MY IGNITION SWITCH DECIDED TO STOP WORKING TO THE POINT I WAS STRANDED AT THE GROCERY STORE BECAUSE NONE OF MY KEYS WANTED TO WORK IN THE IGNITION,I COULDN'T TURN MY WHEEL TO UNLOCK I COULDN'T START MY VEHICLE AT ALL. *TR

WHILE DRIVING, SVC AWD LIGHT COMES ON, THEN GOES OUT. NO PROBLEM THERE BUT THAT IS ONLY THE BEGINNING. IN A SLOW HARD TURN ON REVERSE, THE WHEELS SEEM TO BIND UP WITH AN UNCONTROLLED LOCK INTO FOUR WHEEL DRIVE. WITH MY RESEARCH INTO THIS PROBLEM, I DISCOVERED MANY OTHER PEOPLE WITH THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. 72 PAGES OF THE SAME COMPLAINT !! SOME EVEN TELL THE OF CAR SHIFTING INTO 4 WHEEL DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY SLOWING THE CAR INTO DANGEROUSLY SLOW SPEED . I TRACED COMPLAINTS BACK TO 2004 , ALL DEAL WITH THE TRANSFER CASE SHIFT MOTOR OR THE WIRING CONTROLLING IT. ALSO RELATED TO THE A/C CONNECTION, OR THE AWD, 4 HIGH AND 4 LOW LOCK SWITCH.

THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 167,000.

IT SWITCHES INTO 4 HIGH AND 4 LOW ALL BY ITS SELF. THE VEHICLE CAN BE OFF FOR HOURS AND IT STILL WILL DO IT. THE SCARY THING IS IT WILL SHIFT LIKE THAT WHILE DELIVERING AS WELL. VERY DANGEROUS, AND LUCKY THERE WAS NOT ANOTHER VEHICLE EITHER COMING TOWARDS ME OR BEHIND ME, CUZ I LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND I AN SURE A INCOMING CAR WOULD OF KILL EVERYONE. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIX. THERE IS HOUND TO BE A LAW SUIT AND I READ THREE IS ALOT OF OTHER AND YOU PEOPLE KNOW IT.. THIS WILL BE ON YOU PEOPLE,

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. AFTER THE CONTACT CLOSED THE VEHICLE DOOR, THE DOME LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED.

TAKATA RECALL. I TOOK MY VEHICLE IN TO HAVE THIS RECALL FIXED AND WAS TOLD IT WAS REPAIRED. THEN I RECEIVED ANOTHER NOTICE AND WAS INFORMED BY THE DEALERSHIP THEY WOULD CONTACT ME WHEN THEY HAD THE PARTS. I WAS NEVER CONTACTED AND MOVED BUT STILL HAVE THE SAME NUMBER. NOW I RECEIVE ALL THIS INFORMATION ABOUT THE DANGER AND THIS VEHICLE IS MY WIFE AND CHILDREN'S PRIMARY SOURCE OF TRANSPORTATION. I FEAR FOR THEIR LIVES WHILE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE, ESPECIALLY AFTER WATCHING THE VIDEO. ALSO DURING THE SAME TIME FRAME OF THIS RECALL, MY ELECTRONICS ON THE VEHICLE BEGAN ACTING ERRATICALLY. THEY STILL DO OCCASIONALLY BUT WE HAVE TO DRIVE IT NONETHELESS. THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WILL GO DEAD WITH NO LIGHTS OR GAUGES WORKING, THE A.C. WILL BLOW HEAT ONLY OR STOP, THE ALARM GOES OFF ON ITS ON, ETC. ALL THIS WHILE IT IS STILL RUNNING AND DRIVABLE...

IT IS A AWD CAR BUT SOMETIME THE 4LO LIGHT COMES ON WITH A VERY ANNOYING NOISE FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE CAR OR ENGINE, THEN THE SPEED BEING SLOWED DOWN SIGNIFICANTLY, THE CAR BECOMES HARD TO KEEP GOING. THE STREAKING SOUND AND THE SPEED BEING REDUCED LIKE THE BREAK BEING STEPPED ON ABRUBTLY MAKES ME PULL OVER FOR SAFETY.

MY SERVICE 4 WHEEL DRIVE LIGHT CAME ON AND MY SUV AND MY CAR STARTED JERKING UNEXPECTEDLY WHILE IN TRAFFIC, AS IF IT WERE CHANGING OR SHIFTING GEARS, WHICH COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. WHEN I TOOK IT TO DODGE, I WAS TOLD THAT THE FRONT CONTROL MODULE FOR C1404, NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, AND THAT THE PART ALONE WOULD COST $1200.00. I AM READING MANY ARTICLES ABOUT ISSUES WITH THE 4WD IN THIS MAKE, MODEL, OF VEHICLE AND WANT TO KNOW IF THERE IS A RECALL ON THIS AND IF NOT THERE SHOULD BE, BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE (IF NOT ALREADY)

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT COASTED THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, WAITED A FEW MINUTES, AND RESUMED DRIVING. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES.

THE CONTACT CALLED THE MANUFACTURER AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY, AND DID NOT OFFER FURTHER ASSISTANCE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 141,141.

VEHICLE SWITCHES INTO 4X4 WITH VEHICLE TURNED OFF CHRYSLER SAYS THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT'S WRONG BUT IF YOU GO TO CAR GURUS .COM LOTS AND LOTS OF PEOPLE HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND NO ONE WILL HELP US CAUSE IS TRANSFER CASE MOTOR ENGAGES ON ITS OWN CAUSING OUR CAR TO LOCK 4X4 AND YES VEHICLE WILL SKID AROUND CORNERS AND IS DANGERUS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, THE VEHICLE IDLED EXCESSIVELY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY. WHILE STOPPED AT SEVERAL TRAFFIC LIGHTS AND CONSTRUCTION WORK ZONES, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO NAPLETON CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM (LOCATED AT 1460 E OSCEOLA PKWY, KISSIMMEE, FL 34744, (855) 437-9197) TO BE DIAGNOSED; HOWEVER, THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED OR MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000.

STARTED WITH THE SER 4 WHEEL DRIVE LIGHT COMING ON INTERMITLY ..THEN PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW INTERMITLY STOPS WORKING ..NEXT THE TRANSFER CASE MOTOR SWITCHES ALL BY ITS SELF INTO 4 WHEEL LOCK AND 4 WHEEL LO WITH NO LIGHTS ON THE DASH..WHEN ITS IN 4 WHEEL LOCK ITS VERY HARD TO DRIVE AND TURNING ALMOST IMPOSABLE THIS CREATES A VERY UNSAFE CONDITION WHEN YOUR DRIVING WHEN ITS IN LOCK YOU CAN BARELY GET OUT OF A PARKING SPOT OR GET TURNED AROUND EVEN MORE SCARY ON THE ROAD WHEN IT SHIFTS ALL BY ITS SELF ..MANY TIMES NO LIGHTS ON THE DASH TO TELL YOU IT HAS CHANGED ...OTHER TIME WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS THE 4 LOCK OF 4 LO LIGHTS COME ON ..VERY DANGEROUS ...SOMETIME THE KEY FOB ALSO MAKES THE TRANSFER CASE MOTOR CHANGE WHEN THE TRUCK IS NOT EVEN RUNNING

I VEHICLE LIKES TO TURN ITS 4 WHEEL DRIVE ON WHILE I AM MAKING TURNS. ALSO WHEN IT IS PARKED YOU CAN HEAR THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM MAKING CLICKING NOISES. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF AND THE KEY IS NOT IN THE IGNITION. I HAVE READ THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME PROBLEM. I SEE THAT SOME PEOPLE HAVE SPENT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM AND IT DOES NOT. SOME PEOPLE HAVE STATED WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY OR ROAD IT HAS KICKED IN AND CAUSED TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS, SOME SERIOUS AND SOME MINORS. WHEN WILL THIS PROBLEM BE ADDRESSES? WILL IT TAKE SOMEONE DYING TO GET AN INVESTIGATION STARTED? I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS AND THANK GOD, NOTHING HAS HAPPEN TO ME OR MY FAMILY WHEN THIS ISSUES HAPPENS.

FOR NO REASON THE VEHICLE SHUTS OFF WITH NO WARNING. NO LIGHTS ON THE DASH OR ANYTHING, SHUTS OFF AND NO STEERING. NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE SITTING AT A LIGHT, NO WARNING SIGNS. ACTS FINE, BOTH TIMES DURING CITY STREET DRIVING.

THE VEHICLE DOESN'T WANT TO DRIVE LIKE THE BRAKE IS ON THIS HAPPENS EVEN WORSE WHEN TRYING TO TURN.THE SERVICE 4 WHEEL DRIVE LIGHT IS ON.I GOT ON A FORUM AND WAS BLOWN AWAY BY ALL THE PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM.SOME SAY ELECTRICAL SOME SAY TRANSFER CASE.THEY WAS 2005 OR ALL IN THIS AREA.THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 69000 MILES ON IT.

WHILE TRAVELING ON I-90 EASTBOUND AT 70 MPH MY 05 DODGE DURANGO SUDDENLY LOST MOMENTUM AND THE ENGINE RPM WENT UP. I MANAGED TO GET TO THE SHOULDER SAFELY. THE ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING AND THE VEHICLE STILL IN GEAR BUT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO MOVE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A REPAIR FACILITY JUST OFF THE NEXT CLOSEST EXIT. EXAMINATION SHOWED THE TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS OKAY, THE REPAIR FACILITY FOUND THE TORQUE CONVERTER HAD BEEN STRIPPED OUT. THIS VEHICLE HAD BEEN DISPLAYING PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSFER CASE SHIFTING WITHOUT TOUCHING THE SELECTOR SWITCH. ALSO YOU COULD HEAR THE TRANSFER CASE MOTOR ACTIVATING WHILE UNLOCKING THE DOORS ??? RESEARCH HAS SHOWN THAT THERE ARE MANY SUCH INCIDENCES OF PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE. REPAIR COSTS ME $1403. BUT THE VEHICLE IS STILL DOING THE SAME THING. THERE ARE REPORTS OF PEOPLE CHANGING OUT PARTS WITH NO FIX. I FEEL THIS VEHICLE...

THE FRONT HEAT/AC CONTROLS STOP WORKING. IT DOESN'T MATTER RATHER THE HEAT IS ON OR THE AC IS ON. IT WILL RANDOMLY STOP BLOWING AIR. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE WIRES UNDER THE PASSENGER SIDE DASH (UP UNDER THE GLOVE BOX) GET EXTREMELY HOT AND SMELLS LIKE BURNING PLASTIC. WHEN MY MECHANIC LOOKED INTO IT THE WHITE PLASTIC PIGTAIL PART WAS HALF MELTED AWAY. HE REPLACED IT BUT A FEW MONTHS LATER WE HAD TO REPLACE IT AGAIN WITH THE SAME ISSUE. I DIDN'T DRIVE THIS VEHICLE FOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS AFTER IT WAS REPAIRED. NOW AFTER 2 DAYS OF DRIVING IT SINCE IT WAS SITTING IT HAS GONE OUT AGAIN.

MY VEHICLE WILL KICK INTO 4X4 LO WITH NO WARNING OR NOTICE. HAPPENS ON TIGHT TURNS. SEEMS THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM ON 2004-2005 DODGE DRUANGO.

VEHICLE ENGAGES AND DISENGAGES INTO FOUR WHEEL DRIVE ON ITS OWN. WILL ENGAGE WHILE DRIVING AT HIGH SPEEDS ON FREEWAY, WHILE VEHICLE IS OFF AND WHEN UNLOCKING DOORS WITH KEY FOB. STEREO CHANGES STATIONS AND VOLUME ADJUSTS ON ITS OWN. HAVE UNHOOKED TRANSFER CASE TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. *TR

AS I WAS DRIVING HOME, ALL OF THE DASH WARNING/SERVICE LIGHTS CAME ON. AT THE SAME TIME, MY TURN SIGNALS, BRAKE LIGHTS, WINDSHIELD WIPERS, HAZARD LIGHTS, AND ALL GAUGES MALFUNCTIONED. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE AN ISSUE WITH THE "FRONT CONTROL MODULE".

ON MY VEHICLE THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE WILL AUTOMATICALLY ENGAGE WHILE I AM DRIVING. IT HAS SWITCHED INTO 4LO A FEW TIMES WHICH ALMOST CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. THERE IS ALSO A CLICKING NOISE THAT SOUNDS LIKE THE GEARS ARE SWITCHING BACK AND FORTH, WHEN I USE THE REMOTE LOCK/UNLOCK ON THE KEY FOB. THE DODGE DEALERSHIP DID NOT KNOW WHY IT WAS HAPPENING AND SAID MAYBE I SHOULD REPLACE THE TRANSFER CASE BUT THEY DID NOT KNOW FOR SURE IF THAT WOULD DO ANYTHING. SO I LOST OVER $100 AND GOT NOTHING OUT OF IT. I TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC WHO SAID THAT UNPLUGGING AT THE TRANSFER CASE WOULD STOP THE ISSUE BUT THE 4 LO AND OTHER SWITCHES WOULD NOT WORK AND THE SERVICE 4X4 LIGHT WOULD REMAIN ON. SINCE I HAVE TO DRIVE I HAD HIM DO THIS AND IT DID FIX THE PROBLEM BUT NOW...

THIS VEHICLE ROUTINELY STALLS AND SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVE, DECELARATION, COASTING, AND ALSO WHILE AT A COMPLETE STOP. I HAVE ALREADY HAD ONE ACCIDENT DUE TO THIS ISSUE AND HAS BECOME INCREASINGLY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE.

SEAT BELT IS LOCKED BUT LIGHT COMES ON AS IF IT WAS NOT ON. I HAVE TO UNDO, AND REAPPLY FOR LIGHT TO GO OFF. RADIO WILL NOT WORK AT TIMES. RADIO REPAIR GUY SAID I NEEDED A NEW AMPLIFIER. ONE DAY IT JUST STARTS PLAYING, BUT WHEN I STOPPED TO GET GAS, THE CAR WOULD NOT START. AFTER BATTERY WAS REPLACED, THE CARGO LAMP STAYS ON IF I OPEN MY REAR HATCH. WILL ONLY GO OFF IF I CLOSED IT TWICE.

TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF, AFTER TIRES HAVE BEEN AIRED AND CHECKED BY TIRE PLACE.

WHEN IN MOTION, VEHICLE'S RPM WILL DROP TO 0 (RANDOMLY, NO WAY TO TELL WHEN COMING), ALONG WITH A LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND VARIOUS ELECTRONICS WITHIN THE VEHICLE. PROBLEM IS USUALLY FIXED BY RESTARTING VEHICLE, BUT IT HAS BEEN VERY DANGEROUS - ESPECIALLY ON THE HIGHWAY. HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 5 TIMES DURING MY OWNERSHIP OF THE VEHICLE (4 YEARS)

THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN DUE TO THE INSTRUMENT PANEL FAILURE.

INTERIOR LIGHTS WON'T GO OFF. SMELL BURNING WIRES INSIDE THE VEHICLE.

IN MY 05 DURANGO, THE 4WD KEEPS CLICKING ON AND OFF RANDOMLY. I COULD BE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY OR JUST TURNED THE CAR OFF. THE ENGINE HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO GO IN DRIVE, REVERSE, ETC. I HAD A MECHANIC LOOK AT THE TRANSMISSION, SPENDING A TON OF UNNECESSARY MONEY WHEN THE WHOLE TIME THE 4WD HAS BEEN STUCK IN NEUTRAL. DODGE KNOWS ABOUT THE PROBLEM, WHY ISN'T THERE A RECALL? APPARENTLY THE SWITCHING INTO 4LO AT HIGH SPEEDS CAN CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGES -- EVEN DEATH TO ME OR MY CHILDREN OR OTHER INNOCENT PEOPLE ON THE HIGHWAY. WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO????

THE CAR SV 4D LIGHT COMES ON. AND WHEN DRIVING THE CAR SHIFTS INTO 4WD WHICH CAUSES THE CAR TO STALL AND ALMOST CAUSED ME MY LIFE AND FAMILY LIFE ON THE HIGHWAY.

I AM EXPERIENCING THE SAME EXACT ISSUES WITH MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO AS OTHER POSTS. THE 4LO AND SVC 4WD WARNING LIGHTS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL PERIODICALLY FLASH ON AND OFF, AND FREQUENTLY WHEN I SLOW DOWN TO PULL INTO A PARKING SPOT OR DRIVEWAY I HEAR A CLUNKING SOUND AND THE TRANSMISSION ACTUALLY SHIFTS ON ITS OWN INTO 4 WHEEL DRIVE. THE WHEELS WILL LOCK AND WHEN I ACCELERATE IT ACTUALLY JERKS THE CAR AND DRAGS THE TIRES. RECENTLY I HEARD A LOUD THUMP AS IF SOMETHING BROKE AND IT SHIFTED INTO 4WD ON ITS OWN. IN ADDITION, WHEN I SHUT THE CAR OFF IT WILL OCCASIONALLY START CLICKING AS IF ITS LOCKING AND UNLOCKING THE CAR DOORS. THIS WILL CONTINUE FOR 10-15 SECONDS BEFORE STOPPING. I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE INTO THE LOCAL DODGE DEALER NUMEROUS TIMES FOR SERVICE BUT THEY CLAIM TO HAVE NOT HEARD OF THE...

VEHICLE KEEP TRYING TO SHIFT INTO 4 WHEEL DRIVE MODE BY ITSELF WHILE PARKED,DRIVING AND WHEN VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF

ALSO THE VEHICLE DOES NOT COME WITH TPMS, HOWEVER THE TPMS WARNING LIGHT ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL STAYS ON ALL THE TIME. ALSO IF THE REAR LIFT GATE IS OPENED THE CARGO LIGHT INDICATOR ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL STAYS ON UNTIL YOU OPEN AND CLOSE THE LIFT GATE A TOTAL OF TWO TIMES.

PLACED BATTERY ON A CHARGER AND WAS ABLE TO START MOTOR. ENGINE WAS REVING BETWEEN IDLE AND 1500 RPM RAPIDLY AND WOULD NOT RESPOND TO THROTTLE INPUTS.

MY CAR REPEATEDLY CUTS OFF WHILE I AM DRIVING. I NOTICED THAT OTHER PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE SAME MODEL AS I HAVE WHICH A 2005 DODGE DURANGO. I DID MY RESEARCH AND IT WAS IDENTIFIED BY DODGE AS A LOW MANEUVER ISSUE. ONE INCIDENT THAT HAPPENS A FEW DAYS AGO WAS THAT MY VEHICLE SHUT OFF ON A CURVE WHILE MERGING ON THE HIGHWAY. I AM VERY LUCK THAT IT WAS A CAR BEHIND ME AND THEY WERE NOT GOING FAST. MY CAR SHUT OFF AND I LOSE CONTROL OF THE STEERING BECAUSE OF THE LOSS OF POWER. I HAVE TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND THEN TRY TO START THE VEHICLE. I WOULD LIKE THIS ISSUE ADDRESSED I HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS SINCE 2006.
