No start w/keyless go
Drove Challenger to a gas station this morning, shut off the engine, filled, got back in and tried to start as usual using keyless go. Engine started and then immediately shut off. I noticed a message that there was no key fab detected. I pulled the fab out of my pocket and held it near the center of dash then tried to start but this time after pressing the start button it turned over for ~10-15 seconds then turned off.(It timed out on its own) Then I attempted the clear flood instructions on page 218 of the owners manual, but still no start. At this point I have a bunch of on lookers asking about the car and some calling it a piece of crap for not starting. After sitting with the ignition off for 5 minutes, I was able to start as if nothing ever happened. Anyone have a similar experience?

RE: No start w/keyless go
sam here from jersey
had the same problem
dealer had to order 1900.00 worth of parts from chrsyler(as per the chry tech line)(new fobs, recievers etc etc)
wiated 3 weeks, everything came in. took the dealer 3 hours to install all the "new parts"
tried to start-"no key detected" code flashed again.
serv guy called chrsler again and they told him all he has to do is re-set the passive something or another with his computer
he did that and the car started right up and is still working well(knock on wood).
good luck to youthere is supposed to be a tsb out on your problem now

I have heard that you must rotate the use of your two key fobs. Otherwise, they will eventually not work.

Went and grabbed my other key and I didnt think it was going to work.

Damn new age electronics. Back in the day if your car wouldn't start it was because it WAS a piece of crap. Ill stick with putting the key in a hole.

RE: No start w/keyless go
Don't blame the electronics, blame chrysler and it's vendor. Have had none of these problems with my axis power cars i.e. German and Japanese. I hope all the bugs get worked out on these cars because I am getting concerned with all the issues.
