 Description of the problemWe own a 2012 dodge grand caravan, we have been having issues with the vehicle not starting when you turn the key, all the gauge lights will come on but it will not engage the starting system until you wiggle the key around while in the start position. Recently the vehicle stalled while driving around a corner, it was just like turning off the key, the steering locked luckily it was at a low speed and there was no oncoming traffic, the van coasted into the on coming lane. After turn the key off and putting the van back into park it started again, we did not chance driving the vehicle any where but to the dealership, they said it was the win module and it needs to be replaced. After doing some research it is similar to the issues that the 08 - 10 dodge grand caravans are recalled for. The newer models of there vehicles need to have the win systems investigated as well.
