Consequence Summary: If the ignition stays between "start" and "on" positions it could cause loss of certain electrical functions. if the ignition key inadvertently moves into the "off" or "accessory" position, the engine will turn off, which will then depower various key safety systems including but not limited to air bags, power steering, and power braking. loss of functionality of these systems may increase the risk of crash and/or increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash.
Corrective Action: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the ignition switch and key fobs, free of charge. the recall began august 19, 2015. owners may contact chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. chrysler's number for this recall is p57.
