FOB suddenly stopped working in 10 Caravan
My FOB stopped working all of a sudden for my caravan. I can unlock the doors but get a bad key error when I try to start the van. Nothing has happened to the key or the van, so I am clueless on how this happened. Does anybody got any suggestions on what could cause a FOB to suddenly stop working and what I can do to fix it?

This is my 4th Dodge Grand Caravan, but may be my last. The RKE system has to be the worst design ever, and very expensive to resolve when the poor design by Chrystler malfunctions. I cannot believe that they charge the amount of money that they do to their loyal customers to fix poorly made, poorly designed, poorly serviced products that leave their customers stranded. My key malfunctioning may have cost me more than the vehicle by leaving me stranded. In my opinion, they should pay me to replace the key and beg my forgiveness.

Original owner? Year Model? Mileage? Did you buy a warranty to go past the factory warranty?

Where have you been? keys with integrated key fobs has always been this expensive for any make and model.
I am sorry to tell you that Chrysler keys on newer cars might be one of the cheapest to replace out of all manufacturers...

The fact that integrated key fobs have always been expensive and that Chrystler makes the cheapest doesn't change my opinion of Chrystler's decision to make an inferior product that has about $20.00 worth of components and charges too much for it. What you are saying is that all manufacturers of this POS charge more than they are worth and all of them can leave the customer stranded. I think I will go back to restoring older classics that actually run.

It is just the way it is, things breaks. If you want to talk about how much it cost to make the key. Guess how much it cost to make the $100 Nike shoe you just bought?
When I started working on cars back then, I asked a Master mechanic what brand does he like? his answer was "They are all junk."
Now I know what he meant and starting to agree with him. lol
