Recall 10V200 covers 37,335 2010 Dodge vehicles with a binding ignition module that lets the key come out before park. Free repair at a franchised Ram dealer.
Dodge is recalling 37,335 2010 Challenger, Charger, Commander, 300, Grand Cherokee, and Ram vehicles under recall 10V200 because the wireless ignition node can bind at the solenoid latch. The key can come out before the shifter is in Park, creating unintended vehicle movement risk and crash risk; a Ram dealer will complete the free repair once available.

What's wrong?
The Wireless Ignition Node, or WIN module, is the ignition control unit in these 2010 Dodge Challenger, Charger, Commander, 300, Grand Cherokee, and Ram vehicles. It reads the key or fob and allows the ignition to move through its normal positions. A small solenoid latch inside the module is supposed to release and hold the ignition movement cleanly.
On affected vehicles, that latch binds inside the WIN module. When the latch does not move freely, the ignition module does not behave as designed. The problem is mechanical inside the module, not a driver setting or a normal key-wear issue.
There is no warning sign before failure. The key or fob can feel normal until the latch binds inside the module, so owners should treat any ignition sticking, hard turning, or unusual key movement as a reason to contact a Ram dealer.
Who's affected?
The scope spans passenger cars, SUVs, and a Ram truck, all tied to the same ignition-module component.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether this recall applies to your specific vehicle.
What's the safety risk?
The ignition switch defect creates a risk that the key comes out before the shifter is in Park. That leaves the vehicle able to move unintentionally and increases crash risk. Confirm the shifter is in Park before stepping away, then schedule the recall repair. Repair will be free at any franchised Ram dealer once available.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2010 Dodge Challenger, Charger, Commander, 300, Grand Cherokee, or Ram is included in this recall.
- Contact Dodge customer service at 1-800-853-1403 and ask whether the WIN module inspection and replacement is open for your VIN.
- Contact a franchised Ram dealer if Dodge confirms the repair is open, and ask for the free WIN module service that fixes the ignition key removal and unintended movement risk.
- Bring the recall notice if you have it. If not, reference recall number 10V200 when you call.
- Set the shifter fully in park before removing the key until the WIN module inspection or replacement is complete.
What happens at the repair
The remedy calls for a dealer inspection of the wireless ignition node, or WIN, module. Once the dealer repair is available, a Ram technician will inspect the WIN module for the latch binding condition and replace the module if it is affected. Parts and labor are covered by the recall. The filing does not state a current remedy status, so the dealer has to confirm repair timing before you plan a service visit.

Frequently asked questions
What is recall 10V200?
Recall 10V200 covers 37,335 2010 Dodge Challenger, Charger, Commander, 300, Grand Cherokee, and Ram vehicles with a wireless ignition node module defect. The key can be removed before the shifter is in Park, which can allow unintended vehicle movement and increase crash risk.
What should I do if my 2010 Dodge Challenger, Charger, Commander, 300, Grand Cherokee, or Ram is on this recall?
Check your VIN to confirm your specific vehicle is included in recall 10V200. If it is, contact a franchised Ram dealer and ask for the wireless ignition node module inspection. Reference recall number 10V200 when you call. The dealer repair is free.
Is the recall repair free?
Yes. Federal recall law requires manufacturers to repair safety defects at no cost, and the recall remedy says dealers will inspect and replace the wireless ignition node module free of charge. Call 1-800-853-1403 or a franchised Ram dealer for scheduling.
What is the safety risk?
The safety risk is unintended vehicle movement. In recall 10V200, the key can be removed from the wireless ignition node module before the shifter is placed in Park. If the vehicle moves unexpectedly, crash risk increases. Confirm the VIN and arrange the free dealer repair.
What if I bought this vehicle used?
The free recall repair still applies. Recalls follow the VIN, not the first owner, so a used 2010 vehicle in this group remains eligible if its VIN is included. Check your VIN, then reference recall 10V200 when you call the dealer.
