VEHICLE 'COMPLETELY' SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING, AND YOU HAVE NO CONTROL. IT HAS OCCURRED TWICE IN THIS MONTH (1/5/19 & 1/10/19), AND BOTH TIMES IT HAS CREATED AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS CONDITION, FOR EACH TIME I WAS DRIVING ON CITY STREETS. EACH TIME IT HAS HAPPENED AT LOW SPEEDS. THE MOTOR ALSO HAS A CONSTANT JERKING FEELING AT LOWER SPEEDS.
VAN WILL JUST SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. NO WARNING, NO LIGHTS. HAVE HAD THE RECALL FIXED TWICE BUT PROBLEM STILL HASN'T STOPPED. DOESN'T IT DOESN'T MATTER IF THE VAN IS COLD OR WARM OR WHAT SPEED. IT HAS DONE IT ON THE FREEWAY AT 70MPH. DEALER CAN NOT GET IT TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM HAD IF FOR 3 WEEKS IN THE SHOP. I CAN NOT KEEP DRIVING THIS VEHICLE IF NO ONE CAN FIND WHAT IS WRONG. CHRYSLER BUILT THE CAR WHY CAN'T THEY FIND OUT WHAT'S WRONG.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO UFTRING CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (309-340-4594, LOCATED AT 140 RADIO CITY DR, PEKIN, IL 61554) FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE CONTACT WAS REFERRED TO NHTSA TO FILE A COMPLAINT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 100,000.
MY VAN WAS INSPECTED BY OUR MECHANIC FOR AN IGNITION SWITCH ISSUE, WHERE THE IGNITION SWITCH MOVES INTO THE ACCESSORY POSITION WHEN DRIVING, STAYS IN THE "ON" POSITION AFTER THE KEY IS SHUT OFF AND THE KEY FOB IS REMOVED AND AT TIMES WILL NOT ALLOW THE KEY FOB TO TURN INTO THE "ON" OR "ACCESSORY" POSITION. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THE VEHICLE IS STILL DRIVABLE, BUT VARIOUS FEATURES, LIKE AIR CONDITIONING, BACK UP CAMERA, RADIO, ETC ARE NOT AVAILABLE. NOT SURE WHAT ALL FEATURES ARE AVAILABLE, LIKE AIRBAG. OUR MECHANIC HAS SEEN THIS ISSUE REPORTED BY OTHER 2010 CHRYSLER TOWN & COUNTRY 3.8L TOURING AND DODGE CARAVAN OWNERS AND HAS BEEN INFORMED THAT THEY WERE ELIGIBLE FOR THE L25 RECALL. WHEN I CONTACTED THE DEALER THAT I PURCHASED MY 2010 VAN FROM NEW, THEY TOLD ME THAT MY VAN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE L25 RECALL. NEED TO HAVE THIS ISSUED REVIEWED AGAIN, SINCE MY 2010 VAN IS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE THAT HAS BEEN REPORTED FOR OTHER VINS.

IGNITION RECEIVER, MODULE-WIRELESS IGNITION WILL NOT TURN CAR OFF THE CAR STAYS RUNNING HOW TO TURN OFF AND ON TO GET THE CAR TO TURN OFF
HEADLIGHTS FLICKER THEN TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING. DOES NOT TURN BACK ON EVEN IF YOU TURN ON AND OFF.
IT BEGAN WITH THE FRONT WIPERS COMING ON (AS IF IT WAS RAINING) ON A SUNNY DAY.. AND THE SWITCH WOULDN'T SHUT IT OFF. HAVE TO PULL THE FUSE TO GET THEM TO STOP. THEN THIS PROGRESSED INTO NOT CRANKING, AS IF DEAD BATTERY. I BELIEVE MY PROBLEM IS IN THE KEYLESS SWITCH.. AS THE BATTERY IS NEW, AND I'VE HAD BOTH BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR CHECKED. BOTH OK!
VEHICLE STALLS BETWEEN 20-40 MPH ON CITY STREETS AND THE TRACTION ICON COMES ON. POWER STEERING IMMEDIATELY GOES OUT AND THE VEHICLE MUST BE PULLED OVER AND RESTARTED. PROBLEM WAS VERY INTERMITTENT WHEN IT FIRST APPEARED 3/31/18 BUT NOW HAPPENS ON ALMOST EVERY TRIP, TYPICALLY NEAR THE BEGINNING OF THE TRIP (11/21/18). MECHANIC HAS FAILED TO REPLICATE, DIAGNOSE, OR FIX THE PROBLEM.
WHEN DRIVING, THE ENGINE SWITCH TURNS OFF WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING ON A STREET. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. THERE IS A RECALL WITH SELECTED VIN NUMBERS WITH THIS ISSUE BUT NOT OURS. THE RECALL IS CHRYSLER RECALL R03 (FORMERLY L25). WE WOULD LIKE OUR VIN NUMBER TO BE ADDED TO THE RECALL LIST.
4.0 L V6 ENGINE 1) WHILE TURNING RIGHT FROM A STOP ONTO HIGHWAY, THE POWER STEERING FAILED. - I DROVE INTO THE PASSING LANE, LUCKILY NO ONE WAS IN THAT LANE AT THE TIME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER'S DOOR, FRONT PASSENGER DOOR, AND THE SLIDING DOORS ON BOTH SIDES OF THE VEHICLE FAILED TO SECURE ELECTRONICALLY.

IN ADDITION, THE REAR SLIDING DOORS FAILED TO ELECTRONICALLY REMAIN CLOSED AND OPENED AFTER BEING CLOSED SEVERAL TIMES.

THE ENGINE STOPS AT LOW SPEEDS, NEVER AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, NOT ALWAYS BUT THREE TIMES IN THE LAST 2 WEEKS, I HAVE TO RESTART THE ENGINE, THIS COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.
WHILE DRIVING UNDER 40 MILES AN HOUR THE CAR WILL STALE WITH NO WARNING AT ALL. I'VE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER AND THERE IS NO ERROR CODE. I HAVE READ REVIEWS OF A POSSIBLE BAD EGR VALVE BUT THAT THIS MAY NOT BE THE PROBLEM. TOOK IT TO ANOTHER MECHANIC AND HE THINKS IT COULD HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE IGNITION SWITCH SLIPPING. NOT SURE THE ISSUE BUT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AS IS. THE CAR LOOSES POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES WHEN IT STALLS. HAD THE CATALYTIC CONVERTERS REPLACED LAST YEAR BECAUSE THE DEALER SAID THAT WAS THE ISSUE BUT PROBLEM HAS STILL PERSISTED OVER THE PAST YEAR BUT NOT ALL THE TIME SO IT'S BEEN HARD TO DETECT. THIS PROBLEM NEVER HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR IS STATIONARY OR DRIVING OVER 40 MPH. IT'S ALWAYS WHILE CITY DRIVING UNDER 40.
VEHICLE STALLS WHILE DRIVING THE CAR ON CITY STREET AND HIGHWAY. NO WARNING AND IT LOSES ALL POWER. STEERING WHEEL LOCKS AND THE ONLY THING I CAN DO IS BRAKE TO STOP THE CAR.

I RECENTLY STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE AC IN MY TOWN & COUNTRY. IT STARTED MAKING A HISSING NOISE THEN A DAY OR TWO LATER IT STARTED BLOWING WARM AIR. I TOOK IT IN JUST THINKING THAT THE FREON JUST NEEDED TO BE RECHARGED. THEY DID THAT AND IT WORKED FOR ABOUT A 1 WK BEFORE GOING OUT AGAIN. SO THEN I TOOK IT BACK IN AND THEY TESTED ALL THE LINES WITH THE DYE TO SEE IF THEY COULD FIND A LEAK ANYWHERE- NO LEAK. THEY RECHARGED A SECOND TIME AND IT WORKED FOR ABOUT 2 WEEKS. THEN BACK TO HOT. I THEN TOOK IT TO A DIFFERENT PLACE AND THEY REPLACED THE REAR EVAPORATOR CORE, WHICH SEEMS TO BE A MAJOR COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE VANS.. REPAIR PAL HAS HUNDREDS OF THESE SAME COMPLAINTS
SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO START. THE WINDOWS MAKE CLICKING NOISE AND "GEAR MALFUNCTION" TYPE NOISE WHEN ATTEMPTING TO OPEN OR CLOSE WINDOWS. WHEN LETTING GO OF THE WINDOW BUTTON THE NOISE "GRINDS". WHEN OPENING THE BACK HATCH USING THE BUTTON, SOME OF THE OTHER WINDOWS MAKE THE SAME 'GRINDING' TYPE NOISE. THIS ONLY OCCURS WHEN VEHICLE IS STATIONARY. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS.
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.
