We took our 2008 Chrysler 300 in to the local Chrysler dealer for ignition switch recall #14V567000. After recall performed, the auto rain sensing wipers, remote start, remote trunk release, auto dim headlights and tire pressure monitor did not work. Per the dealer, the antenna connection failed and had to be repaired at no cost. However the tire pressure monitor required new sensors which cost me $514.68. I filed a claim with Chrysler and they offered to pay 50%. all of these systems were operating prior to the recall work, apparently the new module could not receive the signals from the sensors. (see dealers statement on attached invoice) my understanding of a recall is that it is to be done at no cost to the owner, if there is a cost, owners will not bring their vehicles in for repair. But for the recall I would not have had to pay for new tire sensors
