2005 Chrysler Town And Country complaints

WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEED IN A RESIDENTIAL AREA (LESS THAN 20 MPH) ON A VERY HOT DAY, THE ENGINE SUDDENLY STALLED OUT AND ALL POWER LOST WHILE DRIVING, TWICE WITHIN 5 MINUTES. I WAS NOT LOW ON FUEL. THE FIRST INCIDENT OCCURRED WHILE TURNING LEFT AT AN INTERSECTION ON A STEEP DOWNHILL, THE SECOND INCIDENT OCCURRED WITHIN FIVE MINUTES ON A SLIGHT 20 DEGREE DOWNHILL/STRAIGHTAWAY. EACH TIME, I WAS ABLE TO TURN THE KEY IN THE IGNITION TO RESTART THE ENGINE, WHICH RESTARTED PROMPTLY. I TOOK THE MINIVAN TO THE DEALER WITHIN THE HOUR WHO COULD NOT FIND ANY ERROR CODES ON THE COMPUTER CHECK. *JB

2005 CHRYSLER TOWN & COUNTRY. FRONT PASSENGER SEAT BELT DID NOT HAVE THE MOUNTING BOLT INSTALLED TO THE FLOOR. ONLY THING HOLDING BELT WAS SENSOR WIRE AND THE FACT THAT THE BELT WAS TRAPPED BETWEEN DOOR PANEL AND SEAT WHEN DOOR WAS CLOSED. INSPECTION OF BELT AND BRACKET INDICATED A BOLT HAD NEVER BEEN INSTALLED. MILEAGE AT TIME OF DISCOVERY WAS APPROX. 2700 MILES. VIN #[XXX]. UPDATED 07/25/2012* JS. *LA INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

PURCHASED A NEW 2005 STOW & GO, TOWN & COUNTRY VAN WITH THE POWER DOOR OPTIONS. PASSENGER SIDE DOOR WOULD NOT ROLL FORWARD NOR WOULD IT OPEN WHEN THE BUTTON IS DEPRESSED TO ACTIVATE DOOR. HAD TO RETURN TO DEALER TO REPLACE MOTOR/LATCH THAT MAKES THE ENTIRE DOOR MOVE FORWARD. *AK

I PURCHASES A 2005 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY MINIVAN. I MADE A HARD STOP USING FIRM BRAKE PEDAL PRESSURE. MY SLEEPING SON WAS ALLOWED TO FALL FORWARD IN HIS BOOSTER SEAT BECAUSE THE SEAT BELT DID NOT CATCH. IN EVERY OTHER CAR MANUFACTURED IN THE MODERN WORLD, IT TAKE VERY LITTLE FORCE TO MAKE THE SEAT BELTS CATCH REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED OR NOT. IN THE T&C, IT TAKES A TREMENDOUS FORCE TO CAUSE THE 2ND AND 3RD ROW SEAT BELTS TO CATCH (BRAKE NOT APPLIED). THE FRONT SEAT BELTS CATCH INSTANTLY WITH LITTLE FORCE. THE SERVICING DEALERSHIP CONFIRMED THAT THE FRONT SEAT BELTS AND THE 2ND/3RD ROW SEAT BELTS ARE OF DIFFERENT DESIGN. CHRYSLER WAS UNRESPONSIVE.*AK

UPON MERGING BACK ONTO THE HIGHWAY CONSUMER OVER CORRECTED THE STEERING WHEEL. TO RECTIFY THIS PROBLEM THE CONSUMER DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND TURNED INTO THE SKID. THE BRAKES LOCKED UP AND THE TRUCK CRASHED INTO A MOUNTAIN HEAD ON, THEN ROLLED OVER TWICE. NONE OF THE TRUCKS AIR BAGS DEPLOYED UPON IMPACT. THE TRUCK SUSTAINED SEVERE FRONTAL DAMAGE AND THE WINDOWS BUSTED OUT, EXCEPT FOR THE FRONT WINDSHIELD, AND THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW. THE DRIVER DIDN'T SUSTAIN ANY INJURIES. THE CAUSE OF THE BRAKES LOCKING UP AND THE NON DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIR BAG HAS YET TO BE DETERMINED.*AK

WHILE DRIVING CONSUMER HEARD A METAL TO METAL SOUND. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE METAL SOUND INSPECTED. DEALERSHIP INDICATED THAT BRAKE PADS WORE OUT PREMATURELY AND CAUSED THE ROTORS TO CRYSTALLIZE. THE BRAKE PAD AND ROTORS WERE REPLACED. *AK
