ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO INSERT THE KEY (FOB) INTO THE WIRELESS IGNITION NODE WIRELESS CONTROL MODULE, THE CAR DID NOT CUT OFF WHEN I REMOVED THE KEY. THE CAR CONTINUED TO RUN, I DID NOT KNOW HOW TO CUT THE CAR OFF SO LUCKILY IT DIDN'T HAVE THAT MUCH GAS AND IT JUST CUT OFF AFTER THE GAS RAN OUT. THIS WAS VERY SCARY. I CONTACT MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THAT THEY HAD RECALLS ON SOME CARAVANS IGNITION MODULE THE SAME YEAR BUT NOT ON MY VEHICLE.
