Mitsubishi owners will be notified by their company. Dealers will replace the passenger frontal air bag inflator, free of charge. The recall began on March 27, 2017.

Risk. In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the driver's frontal air bag, the inflator could rupture with metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants resulting in serious injury or death.

Remedy. Owners are advised not to drive their vehicle until the recall repair is complete. Chrysler will notify the affected Chrysler and Dodge owners and Mitsubishi will notify the affected Raider owners. Dealers will replace the driver's frontal air bag inflator, free of charge. The recall began for Chrylser on June 8, 2015. The recall for Mitsubishi started on June 24, 2015. Chrysler and Dodge owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403.

Defect. Chrysler Group LLC (Chrysler) is recalling certain model year 2008 Chrysler 300 vehicles manufactured May 31, 2007, to May 12, 2008, Dodge Magnum vehicles manufactured May 23, 2007, to May 12, 2008, Dodge Charger vehicles manufactured May 24, 2007, to May 12, 2008, Jeep Commander vehicles manufactured April 3, 2007, to May 12, 2008, and Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles manufactured March 21, 2007, to May 12, 2008. In the affected vehicles, the ignition key (FOBIK) may not return to the "ON" position after being rotated to the "START" position, instead sticking between the two positions. Potentially, while the vehicle is being driven, the ignition may inadvertently move through the "RUN" position to the "ACCESSORY" or "OFF" ignition position, turning off the engine.

Risk. If the ignition stays between "START" and "ON" positions it could cause loss of certain electrical functions. 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 air bags, 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.

Remedy. Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the ignition switch and key FOBs, free of charge. The recall began August 19, 2015. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is P57.

From 2000 through 2017, Takata produced millions of air bag inflators using two types of phase-stabilized ammonium nitrate ("PSAN") propellant -- propellant 2004 and propellant 2004L. After prolonged exposure to high temperature cycles and humidity, inflators using propellant 2004 can degrade, causing the propellant to burn too quickly when ignited. The rapid burning can cause the inflator to rupture during deployment, potentially causing serious or even fatal injury to vehicle occupants. See 2016 Blomquist Report at …

I let Dodge know about this incident and let them know that my car almost caught on fire smoke came out and I could’ve died. They totally brushed me off and brushed off my incident. I told him hey this is a recall that you guys need to take serious before someone really gets hurt from Now. I am carless with no vehicle to drive. No way to pick up my daughter from school. I need you guys help ASAP so I could be able to father my child and be able to go to work to provide for my child. Thank you.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 DODGE CHARGER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO TACOMA DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM (LOCATED AT 4101 S TACOMA WAY, TACOMA, WA 98409, (253) 475-7300) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE WIN MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. UPON INVESTIGATION, THE CONTACT ASSOCIATED THE FAILURE WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V567000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 135,000. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.

STARTED SHAKING WHILE DRIVING FROM LONGVIEW TO KILGORE TEXAS AND ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN WHEN STOPPED ON A STOP LIGHT ENTERING HENDERSON TEXAS. HAD TO TURN OFF VEHICLE AND RESTART BUT CONTINED WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAD TO RETURN HOME BECAUSE IT FELT UNSAFE.

PERIODIC ISSUES WITH NOT WANTING TO START. THE KEY WOULD BE PUT IN AND TURNED, BUT IT WOULD NOT FIRE. THE KEY COULD BE TURNED OFF AND THEN WOULD START ON THE NEXT TRY. THEN, ON SATURDAY MAY 11, 2019 THE CAR WOULD NOT RECOGNIZE THE KEY BEING INSERTED AND TURNED TO THE ON POSITION.

I DROVE MY 2008 DODGE CHARGER 45 MINUTES HOME FROM WORK AND IT JUST SHUT OFF. BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND BEFORE I COULD PULL OVER THE CAR SHUT OFF. I JUMPED THE BATTERY AND IT STAYED STARTED FOR ABOUT 3 MINUTES BEFORE IT DIED AGAIN. NOW IT WONT TURN OVER, NOTHING WORKING INSIDE CAR.

CAR HAS ALWAYS HAD CHRYSLER RECALL P57. IGNITION INTERMITTENTLY WOULD STICK ON START CAUSING THE ENGINE TO CONTINUOUSLY CRANK BUT NOT START. CAR WOULD INTERMITTENTLY TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING CAUSING LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND BRAKES. WOULD RESUME NORMALLY WHEN RESTARTED. IS OCCURRING MORE AND MORE AND MY WIFE ALMOST WRECKED YESTERDAY BECAUSE OF LOSS OF POWER STEERING. I AM TOLD RECALL ONLY COVERS CHARGERS BUILT BETWEEN MAY 24, 2007, TO MAY 12, 2008. MY WIFE'S WAS BUILT ON JULY 3, 2008. RESEARCHING ONLINE IT IS NOT ISOLATED TO OUR CAR. I FEEL THIS RECALL NEEDS TO BE EXPANDED TO OTHER 2008 CHARGERS WITH THE SAME SYMPTOMS.

TAMARA RECALL P60 IT CUT OFF WHILE I WAS GOING UP THE RAMP TO GET ON THE EXPRESS WAY

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 DODGE CHARGER. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE STARTED TO OVERHEAT. PRIOR TO THE FAILURE, THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC BECAUSE THE COOLANT FAN PUNCTURED THE RADIATOR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 135,000.

PASSENGER SIDE FUEL PUMP FAULTY, LEAKES GAS INTO THE CAR CABIN MAKING IT SMELL LIKE FUEL AFTER FILLING UP THE CAR UNTIL ITS DOWN TO ABOUT 3/4 OF A TANK.

CAR STARTED TO HAVE ISSUES WITH HESITATION AND STARTUP. THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENLY. I SEEN ONLINE THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING SIMINAR ISSUES BUT CANT PINPOINT THE PROBLEM. I SEEN FUEL PUMP PROBLEMS, IACV, MISFIRING ETC. THE CAR THROWS NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS BUT WHEN YOU PLUG THE CAR INTO A OBD 2 SCANNER IT SHOWS THE LONG TERM FUEL TRIM VERY HIGH AT 16.4 IN IDLE.
