Description of the problem	As i was driving, my car would just die and everything would shut down and lock up. I thought i had run out of gas. It would start back up. It started doing this alot. I was on highway with a car behind me and a semi truck going 65-70 an hour and my van shut down and everything locked up. Very scary because i barely made it to the side of the road without being hit. Very close to being a serious three car wreck. Took van it and they said it was the key and extension switch piece. Cost me $610. 66. I did not have any more problem with it until about 3 months ago and it started doing it again( turning off while i was driving) i took it in again and they said it was the key again. They told me to take key ring off of my key and not have anything on it. Try that and see if that works. If not i would have to replace it again. Tried it and it worked but still shuts down every once in a while. Can not afford to have it replaced again for $610. 66. Obviously there is a defect with this key in my dodge caravan since it has been replace and doing it again. I feel that there needs to be a recall with dodge caravans and if so i need to be refunded my money. My aunt sent me an article out of the star business section on recalls and it mentioned dodge caravans being looked into. Well, i am one that has experienced this and am still experiencing this after key and system have been replaced!!
