I went to turn on my headlights, and they didn't come on. All the other lights work. Parking, dash, tail, and the high beam indicator. But no headlights. Also l read that people complained about windshield washer' not working. I tried mine and they also didn't work. I see there is a recall on same problem with the 2005 - 2007 Chrysler town and country limited and they are under a recall. Mine is a 2004 T & Country limited.it My mechanic has checked all the fuses and relay's and can't find anything wrong except for the lights and wind washers not working. I called my Chrysler dealership and they acted like they never heard of the problem. But that's O K with them because they don't have to drive a car without headlights.

I'M DRIVING AND SOME HOW IT SEEMS LIKE MY TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING AND IT WILL GO BACK TO THE ACTUAL DRIVING PATTERN IN ABOUT 5 TO 6 MIN AFTER IT STALLS

THE AIRBAG IT'S BEEN TURNING OFF AND ON CONSTANTLY. I HADN'T HAVE ANY TYPE OF ACCIDENT AT ALL BUT NOW EVERY TIME I'M DRIVING ON THE STREET AND THE HIGHWAY THE AIRBAG LIGHT TURNS ON AND STAYS ON FOR MOST PART OF MY DRIVING. THIS IS THE ONLY CAR I HAVE AND I DRIVE ALL THE TIME THE LIGHT WILL TURN ON MOSTLY WHILE I'M DRIVING AND SOMETIMES WHILE IT'S PARK THE LIGHT STAYS ON

IN SEPTEMBER 2018 I NOTICE SMOKE COMING UNDERNEATH THE HOOD AND UPON OPENING THE HOOD MY FRIEND SAID THAT I HAD A FIRE IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND PUT THE FIRE OUT.AFTER CALLING MY INSURANCE COMPANY AND THEM TOWING IT TO A GARAGE I WAS INFORMED THAT A POWER STEERING HOSE HAD BUSTED THAT THEY SAID CAUSED THE FIRE.I THEN LATER ONLINE LOOKED UP MORE INFORMATION AND FOUND OUT THAT THERE WAS A NHTSA CAMPAIGN:04V386000 CONCERNING THE UPPER POWER STEERING HOSE THAT MAY SPLIT THAT CAN CAUSE A FLUID LEAK THAT IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE CAN RESULT IN AN UNDER HOOD FIRE LIKE WANT HAPPEN TO ME.I SEE THERE WAS NEVER A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE BUT SHOULD HAVE BEEN.MY VAN WAS IN MY FRIEND'S DRIVEWAY WHEN IT HAPPENED ON A SATURDAY.

THE SLIDING REAR DOOR ON DRIVER SIDE WON'T STAY LATCHED/ SHUT.

WHEN I BOUGHT THE VAN I DIDN'T KNOW WORK WAS REALLY NEEDED TILL 06/2018 AND I JUST WANTED TO NO IF IM QUALIFIED FOR A RECALL. THANK YOU

AFTER EVERY FUEL FILL THE VEHICLE RUNS ROUGH OR STALLS. MOST TIMES FOR THE FIRST MILE THEN CLEARS UP. ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO PULL OUT IN TRAFFIC AFTER FILLING THE TANK.

AUTO

MY AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO. IT NOW STAYS ON MOST OF THE TIME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED AND BECAME DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER LEFT OR RIGHT. THE ABS AND ENGINE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE WHILE DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD OVERHEAT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BOYD CHRYSLER JEEP OF SOUTH HILL (200 W DANVILLE ST, SOUTH HILL, VA 23970), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED DUE TO THE DIAGNOSTIC AND REPAIR FEES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 134,000. *TT CONSUMER STATED IN THE LAST FEW MONTHS THE VAN HAS HAD PROBLEMS. SMOKE COMES OUT OF THE ENGINE AND IT HAS HOLES IN THE GAS TANK AND BY THAT IT DOESN'T PASS THE INSPECTION. UPDATED 7/26/18*JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO ACCELERATE INDEPENDENTLY WITHOUT WARNING. THE FAILURE WAS PERSISTENT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MORITZ CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM (9101 CAMP BOWIE BLVD, FORT WORTH, TX 76116) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE POWER MODULE FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED DUE TO THE COST. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 263,980.

THE CAR WILL SOMETIMES CUT OFF AFTER FUELING AND SNELLS IF GAS FUMES. THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND TGE CAR WOULD NOT PULL IN DRIVE LATER CAR WILL NOT ENGAGE IN THE REVERSE GEAR. CAR HAS BEEN SITTING FOR ALMOST 2 MONTHS SINCE THUS HAPPENED. THE CAR NOT PULLING WAS WHILE DRIVING HAD TO BE TOWED HOME.

PURCHASED VAN USED FROM A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP IN MAY OF 2010. REPORTED WITHIN DAYS TO DEALERSHIP THAT VAN HAD A STUTTER WHEN AT IDLE. THEY GAVE IT A TUNE UP BUT IT DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE. WARRANTY PURCHASED WITH VAN DID NOT COVER THE FUEL SYSTEM. STUTTERING CONTINUED AND BECAME WORSE AS THE YEARS WENT BY. VAN BEGAN TO DIE WHEN IDLING, ESPECIALLY IF TURNING LEFT WHICH PUT US IN DANGER A NUMBER OF TIMES. ALSO, WE SMELLED FUEL. WE REPLACED THE TANK IN 2013. HOWEVER, OUR MECHANIC INFORMED US AT THE TIME THAT IT HAD A DESIGN FLAW AND THE SAME ISSUES WOULD OCCUR IN A MATTER OF TIME. TANK WAS FINE FOR TWO YEARS. WITHIN A MONTH OF THE WARRANTY EXPIRING IT BEGAN TO STUTTER AT IDLE AGAIN. IT HELPS TO NOT FILL THE TANK COMPLETELY. HOWEVER, IT SMELLS OF FUEL AND CONTINUES TO STUTTER AT IDLE. WE WILL NOT SPEND ANOTHER $1500 TO REPLACE THE TANK AS WITH THE DESIGN FLAW THE ISSUE WILL JUST REOCCUR. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO RECALL THE GAS TANK AND CREATE A DESIGN FREE OF FAULTS.

FOUND BOTH BRAKE LIGHTS STAYING ON AFTER APPLYING BRAKE OR USING REMOTE DOOR LOCKS ON KEY. LIGHTS WILL GO OFF EVENTUALLY, BUT DRIVING IS NOT SAFE. PULLED FUSE AND BRAKE SWITCH- LIGHTS STILL ON.

THIS TIME I WAS HEADING DOWN WITH MY FAMILY FROM ONE OF THE HIGHEST SPOTS AT YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK. MY SPEED WAS ABOUT 45 MPH AND TWO LANE ROAD WITH LOT OF TURNS. NO OTHER TRAFFIC IN FRONT OR BEHIND ME. I TURNED HIGH BEAMS ON AND THERE WE GO, HEADLIGHTS GONE. I PULLED QUICKLY FOG LIGHTS ON TO HAVE SOME LIGHTS. NO OTHER OPTIONS THAN CONTINUE TO THE NEXT PLACE WHERE I COULD PULL CAR TO SIDE OF THE ROAD. WHEN STOPPED I CHECKED IF KNOCKING ECM WORKS BUT IT DIDN'T, NORMALLY IT DOES. I RELEASED FOUR SCREWS AND PULLED ECM OUT. INSTALLED MY SPARE ECM, NO LIGHTS. I INSTALLED THE OLD ECM MODULE BACK AND WIGGLED IT AND LIGHTS CAME ON. I DIDN'T CHECK ON THE SPOT THAT WOULD I HAVE HIGH BEAMS. 1 HOUR LATER WHEN WE GOT TO COTTAGE WE RENTED I WANTED TO KNOW WHAT HAPPEN THIS TIME WHEN TURNING HIGH BEAMS ON. LIGHTS GONE AGAIN. THIS TIME KNOCKING ECM MODULE HELPED. I TESTED HIGH BEAM AND LOW BEAMS MULTIPLE TIMES AND NO ISSUES. LOOSING HEAD LIGHT HAVE HAPPEN WITH THIS VEHICLE BEFORE HOWEVER THE ISSUE IS THAT IT IS INTERMITTENT. I HAVEN'T FOUND ANY LOGIC HOW TO REPEAT IT WHAT MAKES IT SCARY / UNCOMFORTABLE.

I FOUND LAST NIGHT WHEN I WAS ABOUT TO LEAVE FROM HOME FOR SOME HOME DEPOT SHOPPING THAT MY HEADLIGHTS DIDN'T TURN ON. THIS IS LOW AND HIGH BEAMS. FOG LIGHTS, CORNER LIGHTS AND INDICATORS WORK JUST NORMALLY.

DRIVING 65 MPH AT HIGHWAY. TURNED HIGH BEAM LIGHTS ON AND HEADLIGHTS STOP WORKING. TURNED FOG LIGHTS ON TO SEE SIDE OF THE ROAD. REDUCED SPEED TO STOP VEHICLE. OPENED HOOD AND CHECKED ECM / FCM BY WIGGLING IT. STARTED VEHICLE AND HEADLIGHTS CAME BACK.

CAR STALLS WHEN FULL GAS TANK. DOESN'T HAPPEN EVERY TIME, BUT IT'S ALWAYS WHEN FULL. MAKES VERY UNSAFE CONDITION. I'VE LEARNED NOT TO MAKE LEFT TURNS IN FIRST 5 MINUTES AFTER FILLING, OR BEST NOT TO FILL. IT'S A COMMON PROBLEM WHEN LOOKING ONLINE, CHRYSLER REPLACES TANK FOR VALVE ON TANK FOR SOME PEOPLE. THEY REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING FOR ME, BUT OFFER A $1500 FIX. IT TRULY IS A WIDESPREAD SAFETY HAZZARD.

ABS WARNING LIGHT AND BRAKE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATE.THE BRAKE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATES MOST ALL OF THE TIME BUT WILL GO OUT ON OCCASION THEN ILLUMINATE AGAIN AND AGAIN OR STAY ON .THE BRAKES SEEM TO OPERATE NORMALLY AND PASS ALL MECHANICAL INSPECTIONS.THE BRAKE WARNING LIGHT WILL GO OUT UPON SHARP ELEVATION CHANGES COMBINED WITH SHARP TURNING MANUVERS.

EVERY TIME I REFUEL CAR WILL HESITE AND STALL. IT'S SPECIALLY DANGEROUS WHEN U GET FUEL NEXT TO THE FREEWAY BECAUSE IT WILL STALL AS YOU TRYING TO GET TO FREEWAY SPEED AND SOMEBODY CAN HIT YOU FROM BEHIND.
