MY 2008 Chrysler T&C has been having intermittent starting problems for over a year. This situation has lead me to replace 2 batteries (per recommendation from Hayes Chrysler in Lawrenceville, GA after testing). I also had my starter replaced ~ $500. All the while I have been waiting on the parts for the warranty recall with the faulty ignition/FOB which the dealership never has in stock. Finally the vehicle basically died and the dealership told us they had no service appointments for over 3 weeks. I was left with no option other than taking the mini-van to a reputable local repair shop, K&R, in Lawrenceville, GA. The shop confirmed the problem was a bad TIPM and provided an estimate with parts & labor of $960. I did a little online research and learned of the many other Chrysler owners that have paid out of pocket to replace the TIPM for between $700-1100. What rubs me the most is we paid for an extended wty up to 100K miles and the dealership never diagnosed issues with the TIPM when I had the Minivan in the shop for battery/starting problems. Chrysler needs to issue a full recall for the faulty TIPMs and reimburse owners who have paid on their own to replace this defective part.
