Default got her towed:(

Yup... The ignition popped in to like 4 pieces and wouldn't let the key fob back in to shut it down... then computer freaked out and threw codes and shut truck down... soo got drug(literally) on to the tow truck and then we notices the fuel tank is collapsed.. so guess i will mention that too. any one had either of my issues?

The win module breaking is common but I haven't seen a collapsed gas tank yet

It amazes me how bad something so seemingly simple as the WIN module is to get right with Chrysler. I had to take my mom's Journey in for hers, neighbor across the street had to have her 2011 Grand Cherokee flat bedded to the dealer because hers took a sh*t on her while she was out grocery shopping...

I agree. Use a plain Jane key. But that's not as secure as a fobik. I've had at least 7 fobs replaced bc they lose their programming.

Collapsed fuel tank as in sort of crushed like an aluminum can? Weird!

I agree, these plastic fobs are a joke, I've been wondering if these trend to break after awhile.
