Having !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , when I read !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! —this time involving Chrysler vehicles—I decided I should run my VIN for any recalls. My airbags aren't recalled (yet) but I did find it's subject to a different recall.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

It would appear that like the Chevy Cobalt, my Grand Cherokee's ignition may be able to accidentally turn off while driving, leading to fiery death.

Kinja'd!!!

The ignition switch is on the dash, not the steering column, and my knee is nowhere even close to it. I also don't keep anything else on my keychain, so there's nothing to weigh it down and shut off the ignition.

But, well, just watch the video.

My dad has that key for his truck, I figured it would literally fall apart if that happened(his will if you turn it in the right spot), color me surprised.

Welllllll, rallycross is in a safe closed environment right? So if you did "knee" you would just have a bad time that round.
