While driving at various speeds the warning bell sounds, then the air bag warning icon lights, then all other warning icons light, then all gauges go dead for about a second, the the front wipers swipe 2-4 times. After that, if the air bag warning icon light stays on, the entire process will reoccur every few minutes. Sometimes it will stop after a few iterations, sometimes it will go on for hours. The problem seams to be more prevalent after the vehicle has been parked in the hot sun. Sometimes, disconnecting the battery's negative cable for at least 30 minutes will reset it until it is parked in the sun.

Approximately six months ago I received a safety recall notice from Chrysler, L25/NHTSA 14V-373, advising that my car could unexpectedly switch from "run" to "accessory", causing the motor to shut off. This would result in loss of power steering, power brakes and the inactivation of the passive restraint systems including the airbags. The letter said the part to fix this potentially fatal problem was not available and I would be notified by mail when it was. Six months later and still no fix. Chrysler continues to introduce new cars, but just doesn't have the ability to fix my defective car. A call to the Chrysler group recall assistance center gets only a recording, reciting almost verbatim, the recall letter. Is my, or my wife's death or serious injury going to be the result of this totally unacceptable delay in correcting a know serious problem" it's a thought that is in my mind each time we start our van. Can we get some help before anything actually happen" updated 03/04/15.

There was a recall on the fobik back on June 16, 2011. The part is still unavailable. I feel this can be quite dangerous and I'm not confident that the part is even being manufactured. My vehicle has already shut off once due to this recall.

My Town and country is involved in the L25 recall. There have been several occasions where during operation, the key moves from the "on" position. This causes the vehicle to shut off and I am unable to steer or engage the brakes. I have contacted Chrysler several times about this and to receive an estimated time of when the parts will be available for repair. I contacted them today, 1/6/2015 to let them know that it happened again and I almost caused an accident on a major highway. I also requested for them to provide me with a safe vehicle to drive while waiting on the parts for repair due to the concern I had for the safety of my children and other drivers. They said that it was not possible because they did not know when the parts would be available. This disregard for the safety of my family and the public is unacceptable. I would like to be contacted and informed of other actions I can take so that injuries and/or deaths do not occur due to their failure to remedy this defect and refusal to provide me with temporary safe transportation.

My son and a friend took my car to a movie. The car suddenly quit running while driving on a residential street at approximately 25mph. There have been two recalls on the vehicle concerning the win module and win module detents. In 2010 I experienced the same exact issue, had the car towed to a dealership and they supposedly fixed the problem. This recent incident was exactly like the first. The dealership is refusing to replace the module and wants me to pay $600 to have it fixed. The car will not start without this repair. I am at wits end wondering why it is my responsibility to pay for a known safety issue repair.
