| Description of the problem | Truck is difficult to start unless you wiggle the key fob, it also shuts off randomly driving down the road due to the key issue. If you adjust the key, you can restart it, can also start it by putting your finger in the hole for the key to go into with the fob next to it. Mostly happens when initially starting it and if you hit a bump in the road. We have removed all keys from the fob but it continues to cut the truck off while driving. This was a common recall on the dodge town and country. I talked to dodge this morning and they said our truck was not affected and we could pay for the repair. |
