2008 Chrysler Town And Country complaints

WHILE DRIVING AT 60 MPH WITH MY HUSBAND AND DAUGHTERS IN THE VAN, POWER WAS LOST AS THE VAN STALLED. HAD TO TURN THE KEY TO THE OFF POSITION AND RESTART THE ENGINE. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AND AT VARYING SPEEDS. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING NOW BEFORE IT HAPPENS ON THE INTERSTATE AND WE GET PLOWED INTO BY A SEMI!! *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS AND RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION. THE FAILURE RECURRED SPORADICALLY. THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V373000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM); HOWEVER, THE PART NEEDED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO PROVIDE AN EXPECTED DATE FOR WHEN THE PART WOULD BECOME AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 51,000.

I BOUGHT A BRAND NEW 2008 TOWN AND COUNTRY IN DEC. 2007. FOR FOUR YEARS IT DIDN'T HAVE A PROBLEM EXCEPT FOR THE WHIRRING SOUND. THIS PROBLEM OF TIPM PROBABLY APPEARED ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO WHEN THE VAN SUDDENLY OVERHEATED ALONG THE FREEWAY WHILE DRIVING JUST ABOUT 12 MILES FROM MY HOME. THE SERVICE CENTER SAID THAT THERE WAS A LEAKING HOSE IN THE COOLING SYSTEM BUT I TOLD THEM THAT PRIOR TO THAT THE WIPER JUST STARTED TO MOVE WITHOUT TURNING IT ON. THE SERVICE CENTER APPARENTLY FIXED IT. BUT THE SAME THING HAS BEEN HAPPENING ON AND OFF. ALL THE SERVICE CENTER CAN SAY IS IT IS DRIVABLE. ABOUT TWO MONTHS AGO IT OVERHEATED AGAIN, AND MY WIFE WHO WAS USING THE CAR HAD IT TOWED TO THE CHRYSLER SERVICE CENTER CLOSE TO WHERE THE CAR STALLED. THAT IS THE CARPROS IN RENTON, WASHINGTON, WHO SAID THAT THE PROBLEM AGAIN WAS THE COOLANT SYSTEM HOSE THAT WAS LEAKING, ALSO SOMETHING ABOUT THE TIMING BELT THAT NEEDED TO BE CHANGED, THE CYLINDER HEAD GASKET THAT NEEDED TO BE CHANGED. WHILE I HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY THEY WERE CHARGING TOO MUCH SO I HAD IT TOWED TO THE SERVICE CENTER WHERE I BOUGHT THE CAR. THIS SERVICE CENTER FIXED THE CYLINDER HEAD, GOT THE CAR BACK BUT STILL IT HAS THE SAME PROBLEM OF WINDSHIELD TURNING ON, LIGHTS GOING ON AND OFF IN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL, DINGING SOUND GOING ON AND OFF EVEN WHILE DRIVING, DRIVER SEAT ROCKING BACK AND FORTH. I SENT IT BACK TO THE SERVICE CENTER WHERE I BOUGHT IT FROM AND THIS TIME THEY FINALLY SAID THAT IT IS THE TIPM THAT IS CAUSING THE PROB

REGARDING SAFETY RECALL: L25/NHTSA 14V-373 I HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM SINCE 2008! SINCE IT IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM, THE SERVICE REPRESENTATIVES AT EAST HILLS CHRYSLER (GREENVALE, NY) IGNORED ME. I WAS TOLD REPEATEDLY THAT THERE WAS NO SUCH PROBLEM. MY CAR STALLED SEVERAL TIMES WHEN I WAS ON NY EXPRESSWAYS GOING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, AND ON NEIGHBORHOOD ROADS GOING A RANGE OF 25 TO 40. IT HAPPENED TO MY 18 YR OLD DAUGHTER ON THE LONG ISLAND EXPRESSWAY WHEN SHE WAS GOING 55. WE AND YOU ARE LUCKY NO ACCIDENT OCCURRED AND WE WERE ABLE TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE CAR DOES NOT START PROPERLY EITHER. THE IGNITION DOES NOT CATCH UNLESS THE FOBIK IS WIGGLED OF THE BRAKES AND GAS PEDAL ARE TAPPED REPEATEDLY. I COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS PROBLEM EVERY TIME I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP OVER THE LAST 6 YEARS. EACH TIME, I WAS GIVEN A DIFFERENT EXCUSE. NOW EAST HILLS HAS MY CAR INDEFINITELY BECAUSE PARTS ARE ON BACK ORDER INDEFINITELY. TO BOOT, THE LOANER CAR WAS DIRTY, SMELLS BAD, WINDSHIELD WAS SMOKY, ONE TIRE NEEDED AIR, AND THE WASHER FLUID WAS EMPTY. I AM NOT AT ALL SATISFIED WITH THIS CAR OR THE EAST HILLS CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP. MAYBE SOMEDAY, YOU WILL ALSO ACKNOWLEDGE THE BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM. FOR NOW, IT'S ABOUT TIME YOU ACKNOWLEDGED THE IGNITION/FOBIK PROBLEM! WE'VE KNOWN ABOUT THE PROBLEM FOR YEARS! *TR

MY 2008 TOWN AND COUNTRY LIMITED HAS BEEN DISPLAYING INTERMITTENT POWER FAILURE. SOME SYMPTOMS EXPERIENCED WERE UNCONTROLLABLE WIPERS, LOSS WINDOW CONTROLS, TURN SIGNAL FAILURE, INSTRUMENT CLUSTER FLASHING AS IF IT WERE STUCK IN A CONSTANT RESET WITH CHIME AND FLASHING ON HEADLIGHTS. HAD TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR ONLY TO HAVE TECHNICIAN UNPLUG DRIVER SIDE SLIDING DOOR MODULE DUE TO UNAVAILABLE PARTS. THEY SAID THAT THEY COULD ONLY WATCH THE NETWORK TO SEE IF EACH MODULE COULD BE UNPLUGGED TO ISOLATE THE ISSUE. THIS ONLY TEMPORARILY STOP THE ISSUE, AND CAME BACK IN 2 WEEKS. FAST FORWARD TO PRESENT STATUS. I HAVE LOST A/C, YET THE BLOWER WORKS, NO ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES. I HAD TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY NOW DUE TO POWER GLITCH EVEN WHEN KEYS ARE OUT. I CAN NOT FIND THE PROBLEM AND I AM IN COMPLETE ELECTRICAL FAILURE ON THE CAN BUS SIDE. INTERNET SUGGESTS THAT THE TIPM MAY BE A FAULT BUT IT MAY BE INTERNAL AND BECAUSE THERE IS NO EXTERNAL SOLUTION, I AM STUCK WITH A DISABLED VEHICLE BECAUSE THE COST INVOLVED IN DISCOVERING THE FAULT. *TR

A ACCIDENT HAS NOT BEEN CAUSED AS OF YET. WE HAD THE BACK BRAKES COMPLETELY OVERHAULED LAST YEAR BECAUSE THEY WERE CEASED CAUSING LOSS OF PRESSURE IN THE BRAKE SYSTEM. BRAKES HAD TO BE PUMPED BEFORE YOU COULD COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. CALIPER, PADS, ROTORS AND BRAKE ADAPTER WERE ALL REPLACE. WE PICKED UP THE VAN 10/1/14 AFTER HAVING THIS DONE. HERE IT IS 9/15 AND THE BACK CALIPERS HAVE ALREADY CEASED, CAUSING THE ROTORS TO WARP AGAIN. THE WHOLE SYSTEM WILL HAVE TO BE REPLACED AGAIN. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY CAUSED BY A DESIGN FLAW IN THE BRAKING SYSTEM! *TR

IT STARTED OFF HORN BLOWING WIPERS GOING OFF AND WASHER FLUID SQUIRTING IN THE DRIVEWAY NO ONE IN IT. THEN STARTED DOING THAT WHILE DRIVING AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS FROM STANDING STILL TO 65 MPH. ALSO HAS LIKE LOST TRANSMISSION, IT WOULD SHUTTER LIKE LOSING POWER,THEN BE OK. IT HAS SHUTTERED AT RED LIGHTS HORN GOING WIPERS GOING WATER SPURTING AND STALL OUT. I HAD A FAIRLY NEW BATTERY AND IT DRAINED IT AND TESTED BAD. THE A.C. GOES OFF WELL THE FAN MOTOR CONTROL DOES. MY WIFE IS AFRAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. IT POSSESSED. THAT'S WHAT WE CALL IT. I CAN FOR SEE THIS COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER DRIVES IT TO SOME TIMES AND NOT BEING A EXPERIENCED DRIVER LIKE AN ADULT IM AFRAID TO LET HER DRIVE IT.THANK FOR LITENING. IM READING ON LINE THIS IS HAPPENING TO A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE. *TR

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING HOME LATE ONE NIGHT FROM WORK AND THE MINIVAN JUST DIED WHILE SHE WAS DRIVING. WHEN THE VAN WAS TAKEN TO THE REPAIR SHOP, THE MOTOR WAS BLOWN - VALVE SEATS ALL DROPPED IN ONE OF THE HEADS AND ALL OF THE MAIN BEARINGS IN THE CRANK CASE HAD DISINTEGRATED! SINCE THE DAY WE BOUGHT THIS VAN USED WITH 24,000 MILES IT HAD A PROBLEM OF "USING OR EATING" OIL AT ABOUT 1 QUART FOR EVERY 1,000 MILES. WHEN I CONTACTED CHRYSLER, I WAS TOLD THAT THIS WAS NORMAL!! I WAS FLABBERGASTED AS I HAVE NEVER OWNED A CAR (I'VE HAD OVER 15) THAT USED OIL LIKE THIS MINIVAN DID. IT DIDN'T BURN IT OR LEAK, IT WAS BEING USED SOMEHOW. NEEDLESS TO SAY, IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND WE WERE LEFT WITH A $3,500 BILL TO REPLACE THE MOTOR. WHEN I CONTACTED CHRYSLER, I GOT NO RESPONSE. PLEASE CHECK ONLINE FOR A WEBSITE CALLED REPAIR PAL - THERE ARE LITERALLY THOUSANDS MORE CASES OF THIS HAPPENING. I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT THIS IS SOMETHING NORMAL. IT SEEMS CHRYSLER KNEW SOMETHING AS THEY CAME OUT WITH A NEW 3.6 PENTASTAR MOTOR TO REPLACE THESE AILING MOTORS IN 2011-2012 AND ALL NEWER MODELS. HOPEFULLY THERE ARE MORE PEOPLE JUST LIKE MY WIFE AND I HERE WHO HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

AT LOW DRIVING SPEED THE ENGINE DID NOT MAINTAIN IDLE AND STALLED. DUE TO THE ENGINE STALL, THE BRAKES, AND POWER STEERING WERE DISABLED AND THE CAR CONTINUED IN MOTION MOVING FORWARD AT APPROXIMATELY 8 TO 10 MPH. DRIVER WAS ABLE TO MANEUVER TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD AND COAST TO A STOP WITH ONLY THE VERY LIMITED STEERING AND BREAKING POWER REMAINING. ONCE AT A FULL STOP THE CAR WAS ABLE TO RESTART ONCE THE SHIFT LEVER WAS PLACED IN THE PARK POSITION. SINCE THIS INITIAL INCIDENT, THE SAME STALL PROBLEM HAS RECURRED ABOUT TWENTY TIMES IN TOTAL FOR TWO DIFFERENT DRIVERS. EACH TIME THE CAR HAS BEEN IN MOTION AT LOW SPEED AND USUALLY WITH THE DRIVER BACKING OFF THE ACCELERATOR WITH THE DRIVER'S FOOT MOVING OFF THE GAS PEDAL AND ONTO THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY THE DEALER MORE THAN ONCE AND IT WAS STATED BY THE SERVICE MANAGER THAT THE ISSUE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED WHEN TEST DRIVEN. ALSO IT WAS STATED THAT NO FAULT WAS RECORDED BY THE STANDARD COMPUTERIZED TEST OF THE CAR. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL, CHECK ENGINE, AND ABS SENSORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE STALLED SEVERAL TIMES, BUT WAS ABLE TO BE RESTARTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER MORE THAN FIVE TIMES, BUT THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO GET A SPECIFIC DIAGNOSIS IN ORDER TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE AUTHORIZED DEALER INDICATED THAT EITHER THE ECU OR THE HCU NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY 2008 VAN HAS BEEN AN ISSUE FOR SOME TIME NOW. THE VAN HAS BEEN AT THE DEALERSHIP(S) WELL OVER 10+ TIMES REGARDING THE SAME EXACT PROBLEMS. I HAVE VIDEO OF THE PROBLEM ALSO. CHRYSLER'S TECH ENGINEERS AT CHRYSLER CORPORATE HAVE BEEN INVOLVED TO ALSO HAVING A CHRYSLER CORPORATE ENGINEER LOOK AT THE VAN AT ONE OF THE DEALERSHIPS IN PERSON. THE VAN HAS BEEN AT DEALERSHIP FOR OVER 2 MONTHS TRYING TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND ANOTHER DEALERSHIP NOW HAS HAD IT FOR OVER A MONTH (STILL AT DEALERSHIP NOW) WITH SIMILAR AND SAME PROBLEMS WE HAVE HAD WITH THE VAN FOR YEARS. THE DEALERSHIP NOW CANNOT FIGURE OUT WHAT'S GOING ON, CHRYSLER TECH ENGINEERS CORPORATE ARE INVOLVED AGAIN AND THEY STILL HAVE NOT FIGURED OUT WHAT IS GOING ON. ISSUES WITH T&C VAN; (1) AT TIMES THE VAN WON'T TURN OVER AT ALL. (2) VAN WILL TURN OVER BUT WON'T GO INTO GEAR. (3) VAN MAKES CLICKING NOISE WHEN TRYING TO START, WON'T TURN OVER. (4) VAN WAS STUCK IN 2ND GEAR, DROVE 12 MILES HOME WOULD NOT CHANGE OUT OF GEAR (VIDEO OF THIS) (5) DEALERSHIP STATES THAT THEY CAN'T SEE ANY PROMPTS OR ERROR CODES WHEN HOOKED UP TO TESTER AT DEALERSHIP. (6) GEAR STUCK IF YOU GIGGLE THE GEAR SHIFT AT TIMES THE VAN WILL GO INTO GEAR. (7) IF YOU CAN FORCE THE GEAR SHIFT MANUALLY TO "N" ROLL FORWARD OR BACK THE CAR MIGHT START. (8) SLIDING DOORS HAVE BEEN IN MULTIPLE TIMES WITH NOT OPENING OR CLOSE ELECTRICALLY. *TR

I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH THE QUALITY AND SERVICE OF THE CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY 2008 AND THE CHRYSLER CORPORATION. ON THANKSGIVING 2013 AS MY FAMILY AND I PREPARED TO ATTEND OUR FAMILY DINNER GATHERING WE WERE LEFT SITTING AS THE CAR WOULD NOT CRANK. WE HAD SOME OF THE MAIN COURSE DISHES INCLUDING THE TURKEY OUR THANKSGIVING WAS RUINED. WE WERE ALL DEVASTATED. THE KEY READ 'BADKEY' ,WE TRIED EVERYTHING WE COULD TO NO AVAIL. A FEW DAYS LATER AFTER MORE FEVERISH ATTEMPTS THE CAR CRANK BUT WE WOULD HAVE TO ATTEMPT SEVERAL TIMES WITH IN-BETWEEN READING OF BADKEY. I CALLED CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP TO FIND OUT HOW MUCH TO REPLACE THE KEY THEY SAID ABOUT $300.00, FOR A KEY! I FOUND ONE ONLINE MUCH CHEAPER TOOK IT TO CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP ONLY TO BE CHARGED NEARLY $100.00 TO PROGRAM A KEY THAT TAKES ABOUT 5 MINUTES TO DO. AUGUST 15TH 2014 I AM PREPARING TO GO RUN ERRANDS AND THE CAR ONCE AGAIN READS BADKEY. FINALLY AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS IT CRANKS ONCE MORE THAT DAY. LATER THAT NIGHT AND STILL RIGHT NOW ITS NOT WORKING READING BADKEY. I ORDERED ANOTHER KEY TOWED THE CAR TO CHRYSLER AGAIN ONLY TO BE TOLD ITS THE WIN MODULE THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED, ITS NOT READING THE KEY TO PROGRAM IT. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND OUT THAT THIS A RECURRING PROBLEM WITH THE CHRYSLER VEHICLES WITH THE FOB KEYS. I ALSO FOUND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE 2009 BUT NOT THE 2008 WIN MODULE;SAME ISSUE IN BOTH VEHICLES. COUNTLESS PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT IT ONLY TO BE BRUSHED OFF EITHER YOU PAY TO FIX I

I PURCHASED A USED 2008 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY TOURING EDITION WITH APPX. 30,000 MILES ON IT IN LATE 2011. IN MAY OF 2012, I HAD AN ACCIDENT WHICH ONLY AFFECTED MYSELF AND THE VEHICLE. WHILE TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH THE PASSENGER REAR WHEEL CAME OFF OF THE VEHICLE, CAUSING THE VAN TO SLAM TO THE GROUND AND ME TO PERFORM EMERGENCY MANEUVERS TO STOP. THE WHEEL, HAVING HAD ALL FIVE LUG BOLTS SHEARED OFF, HAD BOUNCED OFF OF THE VEHICLE DOING CONSIDERABLE BODY DAMAGE. THE BRAKES, AXLE, TIRE, ET AL HAD TO BE REPLACED. I CHALKED THIS UP TO COINCIDENCE, PAID MY DEDUCTIBLE, AND HAD OVER $3,000 WORTH OF WORK DONE TO REPAIR THE DAMAGE FROM THE ACCIDENT. THIS PAST SUNDAY, AUGUST 24TH, 2014, THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED. I WAS TRAVELING SLOWER THIS TIME, ABOUT 25 MPH, AND WHEN I HEARD THE SAME WHEEL MAKING NOISE I PULLED OFF THE ROAD INTO A STRIP MALL PARKING LOT JUST IN TIME TO HAVE THE WHEEL COME OFF AGAIN, THIS TIME DOING DAMAGE TO THE REAR QUARTER PANEL, THE BUMPER, THE AXLE, BRAKES, TIRE, ET CETERA. IT ALSO FORCED ME TO MAKE ANOTHER EMERGENCY STOP, THIS TIME IN THE LOT, WHERE THE RIGHT SIDE OF MY VEHICLE WAS DAMAGED BY THE HANDLE OF A COMMERCIAL DUMPSTER THAT STOPPED MY SKID. I REACHED OUT TO CHRYSLER BECAUSE I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT THE EXACT SAME THING TO THE EXACT SAME WHEEL WOULD HAPPEN TWICE, AND I NOW CHALK IT UP TO A PARTS FAILURE ON CHRYSLER'S END. I WAS AT FIRST TOLD THAT THEY WERE NOT RESPONSIBLE AND THAT NOTHING WOULD BE DONE ON THEIR END. THE FOLLOWING DAY, I SPOKE

MY CAR'S ELECTRICAL SYSTEM GOES CRAZY. THE WIPERS GO ON AT A VERY FAST SPEED ALONG WITH THE FLUID SPEWING OUT AT A VERY FAST RATE. THE HORN GOES OFF WITHOUT BEING ABLE TO STOP IT. THE SCREEN WHERE I SEE THE RADIO CHANNELS AND THE BACK-UP CAMERA FLASHES UNCONTROLLABLY. THE REAR WIPER GOES OFF AND THE FLUID ALSO JUST POURS OUT. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3X'S. THE DEALERSHIP COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING THE TIME I BROUGHT IT IN. THIS LAST TIME IT HAPPENED I WAS ABLE TO RECORD IT VIA MY PHONE. I HOPE NOW BY THE DEALERSHIP SEEING IT THEY WILL SEE WHAT'S WRONG. I SAW A REPORT ON CBS NEWS ON AUG. 27TH. AND SAW THAT A WOMAN WHO HAD THE SAME ISSUE ALSO HAD A FEW ITEMS REPLACED BECAUSE OF THIS ONE BEING THE FUEL PUMP. MY FUEL PUMP HAS NOW BEEN REPLACED, LIKE HER, I WONDER IF THIS IS ALL DUE TO TIPM? THANK YOU. *TR

THE CHECK ENGINE, BRAKE WARNING, AND LOW FUEL LIGHT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME. THE GAS GAUGE READS EMPTY ALL THE TIME. THE SIDE DOOR CLOSE BUTTONS DO NOT WORK AND SOMETHING IS DRAINING MY BATTERY (I EVEN PURCHASED A NEW BATTERY AND IT STILL HAPPENS). I HAVE TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY CABLE EVERY TIME I'M DONE DRIVING FOR THE DAY OR IT WON'T START THE NEXT DAY.I CAN'T GET THIS VEHICLE INSPECTED WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. THE PART HAS BEEN ON BACK ORDER FOR WEEKS. *TR

CAR STALLS FOR NO APPARENT REASON CAUSING ME TO LOSE DRIVING FUNCTIONS LIKE BRAKES AND STEERING. RADIO STAYS ON. THIS HAPPENS ABOUT EVERY TWO WEEKS. *TR

WHILE I AM DRIVING MY 2008 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY IT SHUTS OFF WITHOUT WARNING. WHEN THIS HAPPENS I AM USUALLY DRIVING LESS THAN 35MPH BUT IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL THE VAN DUE TO A LOSS OF POWER STEERING, ELECTRIC, AND GAS CONTROL. I USUALLY HAVE TO APPLY THE BRAKE, SHIFT IT IN NEUTRAL, AND WAIT FOR THE ENGINE TO RESTART (WHICH SOMETIMES STALLS FOR A FEW SECONDS). THIS IS VERY CONCERNING TO ME AS A PARENT WITH 3 CHILDREN WHO USUALLY TRAVEL WITH ME AND IT HAPPENS FREQUENTLY--SO FAR UP TO 6 TIMES IN 1 DAY. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON A NY HIGHWAY AT 60 MPH WHEN MY CAR SUDDENLY SHUT OFF AND THE IGNITION TURNED TO THE ACC POSITION. I HAD MY CHILD IN THE BACK SEAT AND WE NARROWLY ESCAPED AN ACCIDENT. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO MY CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP AND PAID $800 FOR A CLOCKSPRING WHICH I WAS TOLD WOULD PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING AGAIN. IT JUST HAPPENED AGAIN 3 WEEKS AGO. THIS TIME I WAS IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC AND ALMOST CAUSED A MULTIPLE CAR COLLISION. I HAD NO CONTROL OVER STEERING WHEEL OR BRAKES. THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUTS OFF. I CALLED CHRYSLER AND THEY SAID "WOW, I NEVER HEARD THAT BEFORE". REALLY?? BECAUSE MODELS 2009-PRESENT HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE YET YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. MY CAR WAS AT THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN FOR 11 DAYS AND I WAS TOLD THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS EITHER. I SPENT $900 ON A RENTAL FOR THAT WASTE OF TIME. THESE 2008 CARS NEED TO BE RECALLED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED. I DO BELIEVE IT WILL HAPPEN SOON BECAUSE THIS IS A SCARY SITUATION TO BE IN. *TR

ELECTRICAL POWER TO DASH INDICATORS WOULD NOT CONNECT WITH IGNITION VIA THE COMPUTER UNTIL I "JIGGLED" THE KEY FOB. *TR

KEY FOB WILL NOT TURN IN IGNITION. VEHICLE UNABLE TO TURN ON. *TR

THE FIRST INCIDENT THAT I COULD REMEMBER TOOK PLACE ON APRIL 1, 2014. ARRIVED HOME, PUT THE VAN IN PARK, AND COULD NOT REMOVE THE KEY FOB FROM THE IGNITION. THE LAST INCIDENT HAPPENED ON AUGUST 21, 2014 WHEN I ARRIVED AT AN EYE APPOINTMENT FOR MY DAUGHTER AND COULDN'T REMOVE THE KEY FOB. THE KEY FOB WOULD STOP AT A 45 DEGREE ANGLE AND IT TOOK 7 MINUTES FOR ME TO REMOVE THE KEY FOB. BETWEEN THE 1ST INCIDENT AND THE LAST INCIDENT, THERE HAVE BEEN AT LEAST 8 TIMES IN BETWEEN WHERE I CANNOT FULLY TURN OFF THE VEHICLE BECAUSE THE KEY FOB STOPS AT A 45 DEGREE ANGLE AND CAN'T BE REMOVED. IF THIS IS PART OF RECALL L25, THEN MY VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE ADDED TO THE RECALL AND FIXED FOR FREE. THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING!! TRIED TO BRING IT TO A DEALERSHIP AND THEY WANTED TO CHARGE ME TO FIX IT. EVEN IF THIS IS NOT DUE TO A RECALL, THIS IS A MANUFACTURE DEFECT AND SHOULD BE CORRECTED FOR FREE. *TR

MY TOWN AND COUNTRY PASSENGER RESTRAINT SYSTEM LIGHT CAME ON. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID IT IS NOT A SAFETY CONCERN, I THINK IT IS BECAUSE IF THE AIRBAG AND OCCUPANT RESTRAINT SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK IN AN ACCIDENT THE PASSENGER COULD BEEN INJURED OR KILLED. I THINK THIS ISSUE SHOULD BE TAKEN UP AND A RECALL OF VEHICLES. *TR

ENGINE STOPPED, ALSO POWER STEERING AND BRAKES STOPPED. ABLE TO PULL OVER TO SIDE OF ROAD SAFELY, STOP, AND RESTART ENGINE. THIS HAS OCCURRED THREE TIMES, APPROXIMATELY ONCE A MONTH. PLEASE NOTE NOTHING IS ATTACHED TO THE KEY FOB. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT FUEL FUMES WERE EMITTED INTO THE VEHICLE AND FUEL WAS LEAKING FROM THE FUEL TANK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 87,870.

THE VAN SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING OVER A DOZEN TIMES IN THE PAST 3 WEEKS. IT ONLY OCCURS WHILE DRIVING IN SLOW SPEEDS AND HAPPENS WHEN FIRST STARTING THE VAN AND WHILE PARKING. THE ENTIRE CAR SHUTS OFF AND I LOSE POWER STEERING AND THE VAN GOES DEAD. MECHANIC CANNOT REPLICATE PROBLEM. MAINTENANCE IS SCHEDULED REGULARLY AND GAS IS ALWAYS AT A HALF A TANK. *TR

SINCE I HAVE PURCHASED MY 2008 TOWN & COUNTRY I HAVE HAD THE SAME REPETITIVE PROBLEMS. SLIDING DOORS NOT WORKING PROPERLY, RADIO DOESN'T SHUT OFF WHEN KEY IS OUT OF IGNITION, VAN TURNS OFF WHILE DRIVING, BRAKES AND ROTORS REPLACED THREE TIMES, AND MOST OF ALL CAR NOT STARTING! WHEN THE KEY IS IN IGNITION I TURN TO START AND IT MAKES A CLICKING SOUND BUT DOESN'T TURN ON. I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT SEVERAL MINUTES TO HALF HOUR CONTINUOUSLY TRYING UNTIL CAR STARTS. I HAVE VIDEO TAPED EACH INCIDENT FOR THE LAST 3 YEARS SHOWED TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY STILL INSIST NOTHING IS WRONG WITH VEHICLE. I HAVE ALERTED CHRYSLER CORPORATE AND FILED A COMPLAINT JULY 2014. *TR

DRIVING WITH WIFE AND 4 KIDS AND CAR WENT OFF WITHOUT ANY WARNING. LUCKILY, THERE WERE NO CARS DIRECTLY BEHIND ME. THIS WAS NOT THE FIRST TIME CAR SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND NEED TO BE RESOLVED IMMEDIATELY. WILL NOT CONTINUE TO DRIVE WITH THE FAMILY TIL THIS IS RESOLVED. CALLED CHRYSLER AND STATED THERE'S NO RECALL ACCORDING TO MY VIN NUMBER. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART. IN ADDITION, THE IGNITION WOULD TURN TO THE OFF POSITION INDEPENDENTLY. THE FAILURE OCCURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,200.

VEHICLE BEGAN EMITTING A CLICKING SOUND WHEN TURNING THE KEY (FOB), THE CLICKING CONTINUED FOR A COUPLE OF SECONDS THEN STOPPED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS PUT IN DRIVE. OVER THE NEST FEW DAYS THE CLICKING CONTINUED TO OCCUR WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE, LASTING LONGER, AND NOT STOPPING WHEN PUT IN DRIVE. YESTERDAY, THE CLICKING WOULD NOT STOP AND WHEN I TAPPED THE AREA NEXT TO THE KEY, THE KEY MOVED FROM "ON" TO "ACCESSORY" POSITION. I RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM, ON THE INTERNET, AND FOUND A RECALL (L25. NOTE: THIS IS AN EXPANSION OF RECALL 11V-139). I CONTACTED MY LOCAL CHRYSLER DEALER TO FIX THE PROBLEM, BUT THEY STATED THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS IN EFFECT. I THEN CONTACTED CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE WHO STATED THAT NOT ALL AFFECTED VEHICLES HAD BEEN IDENTIFIED YET AND I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT (FOR AN UNDETERMINED PERIOD OF TIME) UNTIL THEY IDENTIFY MY CAR AS BEING INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. I WOULD VERY MUCH APPRECIATE YOUR ASSISTANCE IN HELPING TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE. THANK YOU. *TR

THE ENGINE LIGHT HAS COME ON OFF 4 TIMES SINCE JUNE 2014. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE KEY FOB FAILED TO START THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE OCCURRED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 116,000.

DROVE CAR APPROX 100 FEET, 1ST THING IN THE MORNING. USED BRAKES AT END OF DRIVEWAY, THEN STARTED DRIVING AND ALL 4 BRAKE RELATED LIGHTS CAME ON - ABS LIGHT, TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT, BRAKE LIGHT, ESP BAS LIGHT. ALL 4 LIGHTS REMAINED ON. THEY WERE NOT ON WHEN CAR INTIALLY STARTED, BUT CAME ON IMMEDIATELY AFTER USING THE BRAKES FOR THE 1ST TIME. ALWAYS REMAINED ON UNTIL CAR WAS TURNED OFF. TOOK CAR TO SHOP NEXT DAY AND THE DIAGNOSTIC SHOWED THE ANTI LOCK MODULE WAS FAILING. NOT OVERLY SAFE TO DRIVE YOUNG KIDS AROUND, SO WE WENT AHEAD WITH THE REPAIR. CHRYSLER INFORMED THE SHOP THAT THEY SELL ROUGHLY 15 OF THESE PARTS A WEEK. SHOP QUESTIONED WHY THEY WERE NOT RECALLED AS THAT # IS QUITE HIGH. NEW MODULE HAS BEEN IN FOR ABOUT A WEEK AND ALL SEEMS FINE. UPDATED 7/29/2015 *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE WIN MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 109,000.

FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS, I HAVE HAD TROUBLE SOMETIMES REMOVING THE KEY FOB FROM THE IGNITION AFTER TURNING OFF THE VAN. IT DOESN'T OCCUR ALL THE TIME BUT IS A CONCERN WHEN IT DOES HAPPEN. WE HAVE CHANGED THE BATTERIES IN THE KEY FOBS AND THAT HELPS FOR A WHILE. I'M CONCERNED THAT IT WILL HAPPEN AND I WON'T BE ABLE TO REMOVE THE KEY. WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO REMOVE THE KEY AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES OF TRYING DIFFERENT THINGS.

MULTIPLE TIMES THE ENGINE SHUTS DOWN WHILE DRIVING. NO POWER BREAKS, NO POWER STEERING, POSSIBLY NO HEADLIGHTS, POSSIBLY NO AIRBAG...HAVE TO THROW INTO NEUTRAL AND ATTEMPT TO RESTART.

A FEW MONTHS AGO I STARTED HAVING A PROBLEM WITH TURNING MY IGNITION TO THE "OFF" POSITION - IT WOULD ONLY GO AS FAR AS THE "ACC' POSITION. I TURNED THE VAN BACK ON, PUT THE VAN IN DRIVE AND BACK INTO PARK AGAIN THINKING I DIDN'T ENGAGE THE PARK ALL THE WAY. NOTHING. SO I DID IT AGAIN, AND AGAIN, AND AGAIN. IT FINALLY WENT TO THE OFF POSITION. AT FIRST THIS WAS HAPPENING ONCE IN A WHILE. THEN AFTER ABOUT A MONTH OF THAT, IT STARTED HAPPENING MAYBE HALF THE TIME AND NOW IT HAPPENS CLOSER TO 75% OF THE TIME. WHAT HAPPENS IF THE KEY GOES INTO THE "ACC" POSITION WHILE I DRIVING? WILL THE SAME THING HAPPEN TO THE VAN AS IT DID WITH THE GM VEHICLES? I COULD LOSE STEERING AND BRAKES AND MY AIRBAGS WOULDN'T WORK? I NEED THIS PROBLEM FIXED ASAP. I SHOULD ALSO TELL YOU THAT THERE IS ONLY ONE OTHER KEY ON THE KEY RING WITH THE VAN KEY. I AM VERY AFRAID FOR MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF OTHERS ON THE ROAD AND MY FAMILY WHILE WE'RE IN IT. *TR

TOOK VEHICLE IN TO MY SHOP TO SERVICE REAR BRAKES, THEY WERE GRINDING. I EXPECTED TO HAVE TO REPLACE PADS AND ROTORS. WE HADN'T DONE IT IN THE 40K MILES WE'VE OWNED IT AND DIDN'T HAVE IT'S SERVICE HISTORY PRIOR TO THAT. THE MECHANIC FOUND THE REAR BRAKES HAD BEEN FROZEN CLOSED FOR "A LONG TIME." DUE TO THIS, HE SAID TEMPS HAD GOTTEN SO HOT BACK THERE THAT THE BRAKE HOSES WERE EXTREMELY WARPED AND THE BRAKE FLUID HAD TURNED TO SLUDGE. I HAD TO REPLACE THE HOSES, CALIPERS, PADS, AND ROTORS AND FLUSH THE BRAKE SYSTEM FLUID. I'M WORRIED HAD THIS CONTINUED WE WOULD HAVE BEEN IN A SITUATION WHERE WE COULDN'T STOP OR WE COULD HAVE HAD A FIRE. *TR
