WHEN DRIVING ON A FLAT SURFACE BETWEEN 35 AND 45 MPH THERE IS A SHUDDERING/STUTTERING THAT HAPPENS. IT FEELS LIKE THE VAN DOES NOT KNOW WHETHER TO SPEED UP OR SLOW DOWN. SOMETIMES WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE VEHICLE WILL COMPLETELY SHUTOIFF/STALL CAUSING STEERING AND BRAKING TO BE REDUCED. I HAVE TO QUICKLY PUT VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL AND THEN RESTART. IF I KEEP RPMS HIGH BY STAYING IN A LOWER GEAR THERE IS NO STUTTERING/SHUDDERING
DRIVER REAR BRAKE INTERMITTENTLY HANGS AND HEATS UP. ON SOME DRIVES AFTER I EXIT MY VEHICLE MY PASSENGER REAR WHEEL WILL BE NOTICEABLY HOT WITH SMELL OF BURNING RUBBER. IT DOES NOT DO THIS ALL THE TIME JUST SEEMS RANDOM

WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE ON-RAMP TO A HIGHWAY MY CAR HIT A BUMP AND LOST CONTROL AND I STARTED SLIDING. THANKFULLY THERE HAPPENED TO BE NO ONE COMING. I NOTICED THAT WHEN MY VAN STOPPED HALFWAY IN A DITCH AND HALFWAY ON THE LEFT LANE I WENT TO MOVE MY VEHICLE IT WOULDN'T MOVE SO I THEN NOTICED IT WAS OFF BUT STILL IN DRIVE AND THE KEY WAS STILL ON. SO I PUT IT IN PARK AND SHUT IT OFF THEN TURNED IT BACK ON THEN WAS ABLE TO PROCEED DRIVING BUT SINCE THEN MY ESP/BAS, AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT HAVE BEEN ON. AFTER HAVING THAT HAPPENED I HAD THE RECALL ON MY VAN FIXED. WELL THE LIGHTS ARE STILL THERE AND NOW THE DRIVING IS WORSE. I CANT CONTROL MY STEERING AND THEY SAY IT IS MY STEERING ANGLE SENSOR. THEY ALSO SAY MY CATALYTIC CONVERTER NEEDS FIXED AND A PCM FLASH. WHICH I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW ALL THESE PROBLEMS STARTED SINCE MY IGNITION UNWILLINGLY SHUT OFF. I AM THINKING THAT CAUSED A POWER SURGE, AND NOW ITS GOING TO COST ME $2000 TO FIX IT IF NOT MORE. MY PROBLEMS NOW ARE: 1) MISFIRE IN CYLINDER 4 2) ROUGH IDLE 3) ACCELERATING SLOWLY WHILE RPM'S ARE ABOVE 3000 4) STUMBLING WHILE DRIVING (SHAKES OR VIBRATES REALLY BAD WHILE IN DRIVE/ OR PUTTERS) 5) ESP/BAS, TRACTION CONTROL, AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON DASH 6) STEERING WHEEL SHAKES FROM LEFT TO RIGHT ON ITS OWN 7) LOUD ENGINE NOISE 8) MOTOR SHAKES 9) ABS READER SAYS TO REPLACE STEERING ANGLE SENSOR (CLOCKSPRING) 10) THERE IS MORE I JUST CANNOT THINK OF IT RIGHT NOW.

CONTINUATION OF 02/01/2016 REPORT: WITH THE INITIAL IGNITION, THIS CAR'S ENGINE JUST STOPPED AND LOST ALL POWER WHILE LEAVING OUR DRIVEWAY, BACK IN 2010. THE IGNITION WAS REPLACED SEPT. 2014 UNDER A RECALL NOTICE. WE HAD NO FURTHER PROBLEMS AT THAT TIME. THE IGNITION WAS REPLACE AGAIN IN SEPT. 2015 DUE TO ANOTHER RECALL NOTICE. ON JAN. 15, 2016, WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH ON A LOCAL ROAD, THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN AND WE LOST ALL POWER. TOOK CAR TO CHRYSLER DEALER. THEY COULD NOT IDENTIFY PROBLEM, BUT SAID A TECHNICAL REPORT SUGGESTED REPLACING THE PCM, WHICH WAS DONE ON 01/18/2016. ON 02/01/2016, THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN AND LOST ALL POWER, AFTER TRAVELING APPROX. 400 FT. TODAY, 2/17/2016, MY WIFE WAS DRIVING ON THE DALLAS NORTH TOLLWAY, AT APPROX. 50 MPH, DURING RUSH HOUR, AND THE ENGINE JUST SHUT DOWN. LUCKILY SHE WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER TO THE SHOULDER WITHOUT INCIDENT, PUT THE CAR IN PARK, AND RESTART THE ENGINE. IF THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH CHRYSLER, SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET KILLED IN AN AUTO ACCIDENT AS A RESULT OF THIS PROBLEM SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE QUICKLY.
MY 2008 TOWN & COUNTRY BURNS A LOT OF OIL. THERE ARE NO LEAKS OR WET SPOTS UNDER THE HOOD OR ON THE GROUND. I HAVE TO ADD A QUART OF OIL EVERY 100 MILES. MY RESEARCH SHOWS THAT A MAJORITY, IF NOT ALL, OF THE OTHER OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE. KINDLY LOOK IN TO ISSUING A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM. THANK YOU.

I AM THE OPERATIONS MANAGER FOR A LIVERY SERVICE ON CAPE COD THAT USES DODGE AND CHRYSLER MINIVANS FOR PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION SERVICE. I'VE BEEN TRYING TO GET THE PARTS FOR THE IGNITION SWITCH RECALL SINCE JUNE 2015, AND MY LOCAL DEALER KEEPS TELLING ME THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE. FCA KEEPS SENDING ME NOTICES, AND I FIND IT DISGUSTING THAT ANYONE SHOULD WAIT OVER NINE MONTHS FOR THE PARTS FOR THIS VITAL RECALL.

THE INCIDENTS BELOW ARE RELATED TO THE TIPM. 11-22-13, 80000 MILES, I HAVE VIDEO. (I'M GUESSING ON MILEAGE.) IN MY GARAGE. I HIT MY UNLOCK BUTTON ON MY FOB. I DO NOT HAVE A STARTER, BUT MY VAN BEGAN RUNNING, THE LIGHTS,WIPERS & HORN CAME ON, THE DOORS LOCKED. I MANUALLY UNLOCKED THE DOOR. ENTERING THE VEHICLE, I TRIED TO TURN ON/OFF THE VAN, WIPERS & LIGHTS TO NO AVAIL. AFTER 1/2 HOUR, IT STOPPED. I STARTED THE CAR. IT WAS WORKING. 3-17-15, 100000 MILES (I'M GUESSING ON MILEAGE.) IN THE PARKING LOT, I TRIED TO START MY VAN. NO RESPONSE. FIGURED MY BATTERY DIED. AS SOON AS WE STARTED A JUMP, VAN'S HORN STARTED BLARING, WIPERS, LIGHTS & MOTOR BEGAN. COULD NOT TURN ANYTHING ON/OFF WITH MY KEY. WE REMOVED/REPLACED A FUSE, WHICH STOPPED THE HORN, WIPERS, ETC. I DROVE HOME. 1-28-16, 122487 MILES I LEFT WORK, HIT MY FOB'S UNLOCK BUTTON, THE WIPERS STARTED GOING, ETC. (THE HORN'S HAD BURNED OUT FROM A PREVIOUS INCIDENT). I DROVE 4 MILES. THE VAN STALLED DANGEROUSLY IN TRAFFIC. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER. AFTER 5 MINS, THE WIPERS STOPPED. I DROVE IT HOME. THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I MADE IT HOME. NEXT MORNING, WHILE DRIVING, THE WASHER FLUID STARTED SHOOTING! I BARELY GOT THE VAN PULLED OVER BEFORE IT STALLED. I COULDN'T STOP THE WIPERS. IT STARTED AGAIN.I DROVE TO ABOUT 2 MILES FROM THE DEALERSHIP BEFORE IT DIED - THE WIPERS WERE STILL GOING. MY TOW BILL WAS $77.

UPON PURCHASE OF THE VEHICLE (FEB 2015), WE RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE ON THE IGNITION SWITCH (R03/NHTSA 14V-373). WENT TO DEALERSHIP (DICK MEYERS CHRYSLER/DODGE IN HARRISONBURG VA) IN MAY 2015 AND WAS TOLD THAT WE WERE "ON A LIST" AND WOULD BE NOTIFIED. NEVER HEARD FROM THEM. DID A FOLLOW UP ON JAN 28, 2016 AND WAS TOLD THE SAME THING - "ON A LIST" DUE TO BACKORDERED PARTS. THIS DELAY SEEMS RIDICULOUS AND OBVIOUS TO US THAT CHRYSLER DOESN'T WANT TO SWALLOW THE COST AND HOPING PEOPLE WILL JUST GIVE UP.

NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
