WHILE DRIVING MY VAN THE IGNITION SHUT OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTPLE TIME NOVEMBER 17, 2009, DECEMBER 24, 2009, NOVEMBER 19, 2010, THEY PUT A DATA RECORDER IN EACH TIME.SEPTEMBER 20, 2012 ANOATHER DATA RECORDER WAS INSTALLED IN MY VAN. APRIL 9, 2012 THEY INSTALLED ANOTHER DATA RECORDER IN MY VAN. I HAVE MULTIPLE CLAIMS WITH DODGE/CHRYSLER. BROWNING DODGE IN CORONA, CA CORRECTED THE PROBLEM EACH TIME STATING IT WAS THE WIND MODULE.THEY SAID THE PROBLEM WAS CAUSED BY THE ADFTER MARKET ALARM SYSTEM THAT WAS INSTALLED IN MY VEHICLE BY THE DEALER. THEY REMOVED THE ALARM, AND REIMBURSED MY FOR IT AS WE WERE UNAWARE THAT THE ALARM WAS AND AFTER MARKET ALARM. ON AUGUST 22, 2013 DCH DODGE IN TEMECULA, CA FINALLY FOUND THE PROBLEM THEY REMOVED THE ALARM SYSTEM AND SAID THAT NOT ALL OF THE WIRES WERE CONNECTED. ON APRIL 22, 2014 MY TRANSMISSION STARTED LEAKING THEY ADDED DYE TO FIND THE LEAK REPLACED RIGHT AND LEFT AXLE SEALS.OIL PAN GASKET WAS ALSO REPLACED. ON DECEMBER 13, 2013 THE PRESSURE LINE WAS LEAKING, DCH CHRYSLER REPACED THE PRESSURE LINE. I HAVE CASE NUMBERS FROM DODGE/CHRYSLER TO BACK UP ALL OF THESE PROBLEMS I HAVE HAD.

AS I BEGAN TO SLOW TO TURN/COME TO A STOP/VEER INTO TURNING LANE I LOST THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE AND WAS UNABLE TO STEER MY VEHICLE. I HAD TO PUT IT IN PARK TURN IT OFF AND START IT AGAIN TO REGAIN STEERING AND ACCELERATION ABILITIES. IT HAS HAPPENED 5 TIMES SINCE LAST FALL BUT I DON'T HAVE THE DATE OR MILEAGE FROM WHEN THE FIRST 3 TIMES OCCURRED SO I STARTED KEEPING UP WITH MILEAGE AND DATE OF HAPPENINGS SINCE I LOOKED UP RECALLS TO FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS GOING ON. AT LEAST 1 OF MY 4 PRECIOUS CHILDREN HAVE BEEN IN THE VEHICLE WITH ME EACH AND EVERY TIME THE PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED. THE DESCRIPTION OF THE RECALL FOR MINI VANS IN MY MAKE MODEL AND YEAR FOR THE IGNITION SWITCHING OFF MATCHES THESE INCIDENTS 100% BUT MINE DOESN'T HAVE THAT RECALL ON IT. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY. IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO ANY OF MY CHILDREN SOMEONE WILL BE PAYING BECAUSE OF A LAWSUIT. I'VE BEEN LUCKY EVERY TIME THE INCIDENTS HAVE OCCURRED BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN SLOWING DOWN. THE ONLY THING ON THE IGNITION HAS BEEN MY SINGLE KEY NOTHING HANGING FROM IT AND NO BUMPS WERE HIT. "NHTSA FURTHER EXPLAINED THAT "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 AIRBAGS, 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.""
