2008 Chrysler Town And Country complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL RATTLING NOISE WHEN DECELERATING THE VEHICLE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE CALIPERS SEIZED. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000.

MY VEHICLE IS SHUTTING OFF WHILE I AM DRIVING. NORMALLY IT IS WHEN I AM COASTING BETWEEN 20 TO 30 MPH. THE LIGHT AND EVERYTHING STAY ON BUT THE STEERING AND BRAKES NO LONGER WORK. IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR 2 YEARS BUT NOW MORE FREQUENTLY.

WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF WITHOUT WARNING. THIS HAS OCCURRED ON THE STREET AND EXPRESSWAY. THE VEHICLE WILL START UP AGAIN WHEN PUT IN NEUTRAL. AFTER STARTING AND DRIVING THE THE VAN, IT WOULD SHUT DOWN AGAIN WITHOUT WARNING.

OCCASIONAL NON START, LIKE ITS A DEAD BATTERY. COME BACK IN 5 MINUTES AND NO PROBLEM STARTING.

AS I LEFT MY APARTMENT TO GO TO WORK, AND AFTER DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 1 MILE, I APPROACHED A STOP LIGHT. AS I PRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL, SUDDENLY MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT, THE "TRACTION" LIGHT TURNED ON ON MY DASHBOARD, AND THE ENGINE TURNED OFF. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK, TURNED THE KEY TO THE OFF POSITION, THEN RESTARTED THE VAN. IT DROVE FINE AFTER THAT. HAVING THE ENGINE, STEERING, AND BRAKES ALL SHUT DOWN RANDOMLY WHILE THE ELECTRICAL ITEMS STILL WORK WAS FRIGHTENING. IF IT HAPPENS ON THE HIGHWAY, I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WILL DO.

THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT IS ON FOR ABOUT 2.7 YEARS AND CHRYSLER WON'T FIX A BRAUN ENTERVAN AND BRAUN WON'T FIX A CHRYSLER. I HAVE BEEN PASSED BACK AND FORTH AND SPEND OVER $540.00 TRYING TO FIX A DANGEROUS PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH BRAUN AND THEY SAY TOO BAD.

WHILE DRIVING VAN WILL TURN OFF AND HAVE TO PULL OFF THE SIDE OFF THE ROSD AND TURN THE IGNITION OFF THEN RESTART THE VAN. POSSIBLE COLLISION WITH NO POWER TO ANYTHING

1ST VEHICLE STOPPED SHIFTING HAD TO PULL OVER TURN OFF CAR AND WAIT THEN IT WORKED FOR AWHILE , DOES THIS EVERY FEW DAYS. BRAKES HAVE BEEN REPLACED 4 TIMES BEFORE 55000 ON THE VEHICLE. AT 58000 THE VEHICLE BOUNCES OVER EVERY BUMP BIG OR SMALL SOME THING WRONG IN FRONT END HAVE BEEN TOLD IT?S FINE

WHEN TRAVELING DOWN THE ROAD AND COMING TO A STOP THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY TURNS OFF WITH OUT WARNING OR INDICATION. WE ARE UNABLE TO WARN VEHICLES BEHIND US BC THE USE OF THE 4 WAY HAZARD LIGHTS WILL NOT WORK. THE VAN MUST BE PUT INTO PARK TO BE RESTARTED. WE HAVE HAD IT LOOKED AT BE MECHANICS WHO DO NOT KNOW WHAT THE CAUSE IS.

THE VAN SHUT OFF WITH NO WARNING AT ALL. MY KIDS MOTHER SAID THAT TWO TRACTOR TRAILER MISS THEM BY A HAIR PIN DRIVING DOWN INTERSTATE 95 SOUTH IN VA. SHE HAD NO STEERING CONTROL AND BRAKES AT ALL. COULD NOT RESTART THE ENGINE AFTER SHE PUT IT IN NEUTRAL. HAD TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP IN THE CENTER LANE OF A THREE LANE HIGHWAY 95S . SHE VERY SCARE AFRAID THAT SOMEONE WAS GOING TO PLOW IN BACK OF HER OUR TWO KIDS. SHE HAD TO PUT THE GEAR SHIFT BACK IN PARK TO RESTART THE VAN. YOU EDUCATED PEOPLE KNOW THIS IS HAPPEN ALL ACROSS AMERICAN AND YOU LETTING PEOPLE PUT THERE LIFE IN DANGER ,WHY BECAUSE BIG CHRYSLER COMPANY RULES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. FURY MOTORS IN SOUTH SAINT PAUL, MINNESOTA 55075 WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE, BUT WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 105,000.

ALL FOUR BRAKE SYSTEM LIGHTS ARE LITE UP. STEERING HAS BECOME LOOSE AND STEERING WHEEL WOBBLES. I HAVE CHANGED THE PADS ON BRAKES 4 TIMES IN A YEAR AND MY ROTORS ARE STILL VERY GROOVED. DUST IS SUCKING UP INTO THE CAB OF THE VEHICLE FOR NO REASON. THERE IS A KNOCKING COMING FROM THE ENGINE THAT SOMETIMES IS THERE BUT MOST OF THE TIME ITS PRESENT WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER I BOUGHT FROM THAT WAS NORMAL IN THESE VANS. HAS A HARD TIME COMING TO A STOP NOW. I CAN NOT BELIEVE THIS HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED CODES ON MACHINE THAT ARE INDICATED ARE C2200 AND C2205 WHICH ARE RIDICULOUS TO BUY AND FROM WHAT I HAVE READ EVERYONE IS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THEM

WHILE DRIVING ENGINE SHUT OFF,

SUSPENSION:REAR:AXLE:NON-POWERED AXLE ASSEMBLY., WANTED TO KNOW IF MY VIN# SHOW IF I HAD THIS FIX RECALL WAS 4-1-2014, I DON'T REMEMBER

AT INTERMITTENT TIMES THE HORN GOES OFF AND THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS TURN ON AND IT SQUIRTS WASHER FLUID. SOMETIMES WHILE STATIONARY AND SOMETIMES WHILE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WILL SHUT DOWN ON ITS OWN WHETHER DRIVING SLOW ON A SIDE STREET OR AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THIS STARTED LAST SPRING (2016). I'VE READ NUMEROUS REPORTS OF THIS HAPPENING AND THAT IT IS THE TIPM MODULE. I SPOKE TO THE DEALER LAST YEAR ABOUT IT AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NO RECALL ISSUED. I'VE ALSO SEEN THAT THIS HAS NOT BEEN CONSIDERED A SAFETY ISSUE. HOW SO? THIS IS VERY MUCH A SAFETY ISSUE AND IT NEEDS TO BE A RECALL. ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS ARE NOT A MECHANICAL 'WEAR AND TEAR' ITEM. I DON'T HAVE ANY DOCUMENTATION OF AN INCIDENT YET AND I HOPE MY WIFE AND KIDS DON'T HAVE HAVE ONE!

VEHICLE SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. HOW CAN THIS PROBLEM, ADDRESSED LITERALLY HUNDREDS AND THOUSANDS OF TIMES ON MULTIPLE SITES, BE JUDGED BY YOUR DEPARTMENT AS NOT A "SAFETY ISSUE"? I, ALONG WITH MY WIFE, HAVE BEEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WITH MY FAMILY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND THE VAN COMPLETELY SHUTS DOWN. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING DOWN MY DRIVEWAY AT LOW SPEEDS AND THE VAN COMPLETELY SHUTS DOWN. THE VAN BEHAVES AS IF POSSESSED. THE HORN BLARES, FRONT AND REAR WIPERS COME ON BY THEMSELVES, FLASHERS COME ON BY THEMSELVES, DOORS LOCK BY THEMSELVES, WASHER FLUID SPRAYS ON ITS OWN AT A HIGH VOLUME. I HAVE DECIDED, SINCE NHTSA, CHRYSLER, AND MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP CAN'T/WON'T HELP, THAT I WILL CALL AN EXORCIST. I BELIEVE THE EXORCIST WILL BE ABOUT AS MUCH HELP AS THE THREE OF YOU COMBINED. I ASSUME IF MY BEAUTIFUL WIFE AND DAUGHTER ARE KILLED AS A RESULT OF THE ENGINE SHUTTING OFF AT RANDOM SPEEDS ONE OF YOU THREE WILL PAY THE FUNERAL EXPENSE? OR AT LEAST SEND SOME FLOWERS TO THE VISITATION? HOW NICE OF YOU. OR SHOULD I JUST CONTACT THE EXORCIST AGAIN AND SEE IF SHE HAS A FRIEND THAT COULD HOLD A SEANCE SO I CAN TELL THEM HOW MUCH I LOVED THEM AND THAT THEIR SAFETY WAS JUST NOT A PRIORITY FOR YOU? SERIOUSLY. IT IS TIME TO DO SOMETHING. I DO NOT HAVE THE KIND OF MONEY THE DEALERSHIP IS ASKING ME TO PAY FOR A WIDELY KNOWN AND ACCEPTED DEFECT IN THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS OF THEIR VEHICLE. THE TOTAL INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM) IS FAULTY. EVERYONE KNOWS IT. THE COMPANY ACKNOWLEDGES IT. THOUSANDS

SOMETIMES IT WILL START ON IT'S OWN IF YOU WAIT A LITTLE WHILE. PEOPLE ON BOARDS HAVE STATED REPLACING DOZENS OF THINGS - TO THEN HAVE THE SAME ISSUE A COUPLE DAYS LATER. WE ARE USE TO HAVING TO JUMP OUR VEHICLE ABOUT 1 OUT OF 20 TIMES. WE HAVE TAKEN IT TO MULTIPLE MECHANICS AND HAD MULTIPLE THINGS CHECKED AND REPLACED. AN EXAMPLE OF A BOARD WITH MANY OTHERS EXPERIENCING THE SAME THING CAN BE FOUND HERE: HTTPS://FORUMS.EDMUNDS.COM/DISCUSSION/12634/CHRYSLER/TOWN-AND-COUNTRY/2008-T-C-IGNITION-SWITCH-PROBLEM/P1 IN ADDITION - SOMETIMES YOU WILL BE DRIVING AND EVERYTHING STARTS GOING OFF (WIPERS, LIGHTS, FLASHERS, HORN, ENTIRE DASH LIGHTS UP, ETC - NO RESOLVE). THIS CAN HAPPEN WHILE STATIONARY OR DRIVING.

REAR AIR CONTER

MY TRACTION SENSOR IS NOT WORKING WHICH IS CAUSING MY A SAFETY ISSUE. WHEN I START DRIVING (IN MOTION), THE ABS TRACTION STARTS EVEN WHEN THERE IS NO WATER, ICE OR POOR DRIVING CONDITIONS. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE ABS MODULE AND ITS STILL DOING IT. THEY NOW SAY THEY WILL HAVE TO REPLACE THE SENSOR IN THE STEERING COLUMN (WHEEL). THIS IS VERY SCARY AS IT STOPS MY ACCELERATION AND IT AFFECTS THE ANTI-LOCK BREAKS. I WAS HOPING THIS WAS ALL DUE TO AN MINOR AUTO COLLISION BUT THE INSURANCE COMPANY TOLD ME THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO WAY THIS COULD HAVE BEEN CAUSED BECAUSE OF IT. THEY SAID ITS A COINCIDENCE AND THAT IT JUST HAPPENED ON ITS OWN AT THE SAME TIME. I WOULD SAY THE FAULT IS UNKNOWN.

I AM HAVING ISSUES WITH MY 2008 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY VAN. I RECENTLY HAD THE DEALERSHIP WORK ON SOME RECALLS FOR THIS MODEL. AT THAT TIME, IT WASN'T SHOWING ANY PROBLEMS. ONLY AFTER THE RECALLS WERE ADDRESSED DID THE TROUBLE BEGIN. NOW, IT SPORADICALLY WILL NOT RECOGNIZE EITHER KEY FOB. WAIT A WHILE AND TRY TO CRANK IT AND IT STARTS BACK UP. TODAY, 100 MILES FROM HOME WITH 4 SMALL CHILDREN AS PASSENGERS, IT DECIDED TO HAVE A FIT AT THE GAS PUMP AND NOT START. CALLED ROAD SIDE ASSISTANCE AND WAITED FOR THEM TO ARRIVE JUST IN TIME FOR VAN TO DECIDE IT WANTED TO CRANK AGAIN. CRANKED IT UP AND TRIED TO PARK IT AT A FRIENDS HOUSE CLOSE BY. DETECTED WHAT SEEMED LIKE SURGES WITH THE FUEL PUMP WHILE TRYING TO GET THERE. FINALLY GOT TO A STOPPING POINT AND TURNED THE KEY OFF AND THE VAN KEPT RUNNING. THE WIPERS WENT CRAZY AND THE HORN STARTED BLOWING ALL BY ITSELF. IS THIS VEHICLE POSSESSED BY THE DEVIL OR WHAT? IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AND I HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE BUT TO TOW IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. I DON'T KNOW IF ANYONE ELSE HAS THE SAME PROBLEM BUT I SAY THIS VEHICLE IS UNSAFE! IF THERE ISNT A RECALL ALREADY ISSUED, THERE CERTAINLY NEEDS TO BE ONE.

THE VEHICLE HAS AN ONGOING INABILITY TO START WITHOUT ANY ISSUES BEING FOUND. THE ALTERNATOR WAS REPLACED, THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED, THE RADIATOR WAS REPAIRED WITH THE THOUGHT THAT WAS AN ISSUE. THE DOORS OPEN ON THEIR OWN, NOT JUST UNLOCK BUT OPEN. THE STABILITY CONTROL IS ALWAYS GOING ON EVEN AFTER BEING REPAIRED AND REPAIRING ANY POSSIBLE CAUSES. THE INCIDENTS OCCUR IN BOTH STATIONARY AND IN MOTION THE CAUSES ARE STILL UNKNOWN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. WHILE THE IGNITION WAS IN THE ON POSITION, THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM BECAME INOPERABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE TIPM FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED, BUT THE PARTS WERE ORDERED. THE LOCAL DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 99,100. UPDATED 10/17/17*LJ THE CONSUMER STATED PURCHASED A NEW TIPM AT THE COST OF $900. *TR

AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY IN THE CRASH. VAN HAS BEEN TOTALED BY THE INSURANCE. MUCH FRONT END DAMAGE; VAN FLIPPED END FOR END BRAKING WINDSHIELD & BOTH FRONT DRIVERS & PASSENGERS WINDOWS. SEAT BELTS SAVED THEIR LIVES, WITH INJURIES TO BODY & HEADS. VAN SPEED MAYBE 40 M.P.H. ON HIGHWAY & UPHILL ON A CURVE. SINGLE VEHICLE ACCIDENT, DRIVER BLINDED BY ON COMING HEADLIGHTS FROM ANOTHER VEHICLE. WE NEVER RECEIVED A RECALL, BUT LOOKS LIKE MODULAR/AIRBAG CONTROL UNIT MAY CORRODE & FAIL, RECALL S07 FOR SOME 2008 VANS ONLY. NHTSA REFERENCE #16V047000 & NUMBER AFFECTED 111,519 VANS. MY VIN# SHOWS NO RECALLS OPEN FOR IT & SHOWS ALL OTHERS HAVE BEEN DONE. THIS RECALL SHOULD HAVE BEEN ON MY VAN TOO. NOT ONE AIRBAG WENT OFF & WE COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. THE VAN IS TOTALED, MOST DAMAGE TO FRONT, EVEN BUMPER IS BENT RIGHT UNDER, WHAT MORE DAMAGE DOES IT TAKE FOR THE AIRBAGS TO GO OFF. PLEASE CHECK OUT WHY MINE WAS NOT RECALLED. ...UPDATED 08/02/17 *BF THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. *JS

EVERY TIME THE I REMOVE THE KEY IN THE IGNITION AFTER DRIVING THE VEHICLE, IT DOES NOT EITHER TURN OFF AND KEEPS RUNNING OR THE KEY CAN NOT BE REMOVED AFTER PLACING IT IN PARK. I HAVE 2 SETS OF KEY FOBS, AND IT HAPPENS TO BOTH OF THEM. IT HAS GOTTEN TO THE POINT WHERE I WILL NOT DRIVE IT WITH MY FAMILY OF 6. I HAVE BEEN RECEIVING LETTERS FROM CHRYSLER STATING THAT THEY HAVE NO TIME TABLE FOR A REPLACEMENT OF THE IGNITION SWITCH. IT HAS BEEN OVER 2 YEARS OF LETTERS WITH NO ANSWER IN SIGHT. STARTING TO GET TO THE POINT OF HIRING AN ATTORNEY IF NOTHING IS GETTING RESOLVED SOON.

FRONT BLOWER FAN CUTS ON AND OFF. HAD BLOWER FAN, HEAD CONTROL UNIT, AND BLOWER FAN RESISTOR CHANGED YET STILL DOESN'T WORK. FRONT BLOWER FAN SHOULD BE WIRED LIKE REAR BLOWER FAN AND NOT GO THROUGH TIPM

WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE HORN STARTED BLOWING AND THE WIND SHIELD WIPERS WENT FULL SPEED AND THE MOTOR TURNED OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE TIPM WAS BAD AND THEY HAVE A TON OF THESE VEHICLES WITH THIS PROBLEM! IT IS A VERY EXPENSIVE FIX AND SHOULD BE A RECALL ITEM DUE TO IT BEING A SAFETY PROBLEM! THE VEHICLE SHUTS DOWN AND YOU LOOSE ALL POWER! I HAVE SEEN ONLINE OTHER ISSUES WHERE THE AIR BAGS ACTUALLY DEPLOYED. I AM SO SCARED TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW IF IT WILL MALFUNCTION AGAIN!! IT HAS HAPPEN AT LEAST 3 TIMES ALREADY.

REPLACING BRAKE PADS, ROTORS AND CALIPERS EVERY 3,000 MILES. THE BRAKE PADS NO MATTER WHAT BRAND OR WHAT THEY ARE MADE OF GO METAL TO METAL BY 3500 MILES OF DRIVING. WE HAVE ALSO REPLACED MASTER CYLINDER AND BOTH HUB BEARINGS. BOUGHT THE VEHICLE USED 2 YEARS AGO AND HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT FRONT END PROBLEMS.

THE ENGINE SHUTS DOWN WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES AT LESS THAN 15 MPH ON MY PRIVATE ROAD AND 1 TIME AT ~30 MPH ON A PUBLIC ROAD THROUGH TOWN. I HAVE ONLY OWNED THIS VEHICLE A COUPLE OF MONTHS AND THE PREVIOUS OWNER PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM A DEALER IN JANUARY ONLY OWNED THE VEHICLE

HEADLIGHTS TURN ON MOMENTARILY AND THEN TURN OFF. . THEY FLICKER. VEHICLE CAN BE STATIONARY.OR WHILE DRIVING. IF DRIVING CANNOT ALWAYS BE SURE THE HEADLIGHT HAVE COME OR JUST THE FOG LIGHTS. FOG LIGHTS REMAIN ON HEADLIGHTS ARE QUESTIONABLE AFTER TURNING THEM ON FROM HEAD LAMP SWITCH.

WINDSHIELD WIPERS, HORN, WASHER FLUID, AND LIGHTS INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF VEHICLE RANDOMLY GO OFF AND WONT STOP UNLESS THE BATTERY IS DISCONNECTED.THIS WILL ALSO CAUSE THE CAR TO START ON ITS OWN AND WONT TURN OFF IF ALREADY RUNNING. TOOK TO A MECHANIC AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE CLOCK SPRING BUT IT ONLY LASTED FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS AND IS NOW DOING THE SAME THING. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND IS SHOWING AGAIN A PROBLEM WITH THE ECM. I HAVE LOOKED ONLINE AND THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF OTHER PEOPLE REPORTING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH NO EXPLANATION FROM CHRYSLER AND NO RECALL ISSUED.

I STARTED MY VEHICLE IN A PARKING LOT AND THE WIPERS, SEAT BELT ALARM AND LIGHTS CAME ON AND WOULD NOT TURN OFF AND THE WINDOWS WOULD NOT OPERATE. I TURNED OFF THE CAR AND STARTED IT AGAIN. I BEGAN DRIVING AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED. I PULLED OVER AND TURNED THE CAR OFF AND STARTED IT AGAIN AND THIS TIME IT STOPPED. I CONTINUED ON TO MY DESTINATION AND THEN WENT HOME. THE NEXT DAY, I WAS RUNNING AN ERRAND ON MY LUNCH BREAK AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN. I RETURNED TO WORK AND WHEN I LEFT FOR THE DAY, I HAD ANOTHER ERRAND TO RUN AND HALF WAY TO MY DESTINATION, IT HAPPENED AGAIN! I HAD TO DRIVE 20 MILES HOME WITH THE WIPERS AND ALARMS GOING AND THE WINDOWS DOWN BECAUSE THE POWER WAS NOT FUNCTIONING.
