The contact owns a 2016 Chrysler Town and Country. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked, the passenger's and driver's sliding doors failed to unlatch as intended. Additionally, the passenger's and driver's sliding door windows failed to roll up and down as intended. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed with an electrical failure. The failure mileage was approximately 122,700.

The front drivers headrest spontaneously opened up. It was a quick and loud pop. I was not in the seat when it happened but I was getting ready to sit down. If i was sitting down it would have hit the back of my head very hard and could have hurt me. No warning lamps were on at the time and it has not been inspected but I have pictures

While driving my 2016 Chrysler Town & Country around 45mph in active traffic, the vehicle suffered a sudden, catastrophic, and complete loss of motor power. The engine remained running, but the transmission completely lost all hydraulic pressure, leaving me unable to accelerate and leaving me completely stranded in a highly dangerous situation. I am a mother of four children who were inside the vehicle, and this sudden stalling created an imminent crash hazard and an extreme risk to my family's safety.The vehicle was towed to an authorized dealership, Lithia Chrysler in [XXX], for a formal diagnostic check under Chrysler Corporate Case #XXX. The dealership's certified master technician pulled an electronic computer scan and confirmed an active P08 fluid pressure fault code. The dealer physically verified that the primary transaxle oil pump failed, which caused extensive consequential damage, filling the transmission fluid with heavy metal shrapnel and a burnt smell. The dealer explicitly documented that the entire transmission assembly requires a complete replacement due to this internal destruction.This mechanical failure sequence, the component involved, and the life-threatening safety symptoms perfectly mirror NHTSA Campaign 16V-461 (Manufacturer Safety Recall S44) for the transaxle oil pump. Despite this identical failure, Chrysler Case Management denied repair assistance on the grounds that my VIN sits outside their arbitrary manufacturing window. It is clear that the or

Was just informed my transmission pump needs to be replaced after hearing an odd humming noise when acceleration occurred. I looked online and saw this was a recall for similar vehicles. Mine did not come up, but it mirrors the same issues that were part of the recall.

The contact owns a 2016 Chrysler Town and Country. While the contact’s spouse was driving, the vehicle stalled in the middle of the road. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, where it was diagnosed with transmission pump failure. The contact was informed that the transmission needed to be replaced. The contact referenced NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V461000 (Power Train); to the dealer, however the VIN was not included in the recall. The technician from the dealer stated that the failure was associated with the recall. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure was confirmed by the dealer.

I have this vehicle and the drivers side sliding door has locked up completely. I will not unlock or open manually or electrically. I had it in for a diagnostic at a certified body shop in Devils Lake, ND 58301. They say it is the locking mechanism or actuator. I have recently been informed that Chrysler has extended the warranty for thi part to 15 years or 150K. But my vehicle does not show up as having a recall for this. The bulletin number I am referring to is 23-036-21. It covers 2015 and 2016 town and countrys mine is a 2016. How do I get this covered

Gear skipping, engine loosing power

While driving down the road, 30mph, driver side head rest deployed, hitting me in the back of the head.

Inadvertent passenger side head rest deployment while driving with no collisions.

The transmission vehicle just stopped in the road. Causing road blockage and stranded passengers in the with out cell service. Vehicle has been looked at and this same problem that is listed for the recall but this vin isn't listed in the recall.

I am submitting this letter to formally express my serious concern and dissatisfaction regarding a safety issue that occurred and that, under only slightly different circumstances, could have resulted in a far more dangerous outcome. The situation I experienced was not only unacceptable but indicative of a potential systemic failure that warrants immediate investigation. The incident posed a clear risk to my safety and the safety of others. It is deeply troubling that such a failure was able to occur at all, and even more troubling that—had the conditions been marginally different—it could have led to severe injury or worse. This is precisely the type of preventable hazard that NHTSA exists to identify and address before it results in tragedy. I am requesting that NHTSA review this matter thoroughly, determine whether similar incidents have been reported, and take appropriate action to ensure that this issue is corrected. Consumers should not be placed in harm’s way due to defects or oversights that compromise the safe operation of a vehicle or its components. This experience has left me with significant concerns about the reliability and safety of the system involved. I urge NHTSA to treat this as a serious complaint and to investigate promptly so that no one else is put at risk.

The contact owns a 2016 Chrysler Town and Country. The contact stated that while the vehicle was in reverse(R), the vehicle stalled, and the power steering became inoperable. Additionally, the failure recurred while making right or left turns at various speeds. The contact depressed the brake pedal, shifted to park(P) and restarted the vehicle after each failure. The failure recurred intermittently. The check engine, power steering, and the ABS warning lights and other unknown warning lights were illuminated. While researching on the NHTSA.GOV website, the contact associated the failure with NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V461000 (Power Train). The dealer was contacted and confirmed that the VIN was not included in the recall. The dealer referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline to report the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 125,002.

Transmission pump failure leading to sudden power loss. This is a known problem with 2015-16 Chrysler Town & Country's and there is a recall out for it (Chrysler:S44, NHTSA: 16V461000). However my VIN does not appear in the recall registry, despite being manufactured right in the middle of the specified manufacturing time span for the defect. Because of this I was never sent any information on the recall as the company doesn't think my vehicle was affected. I disagree and think their database is incorrect. My vehicle manufacture date is Nov 15, and the recall span for my model of vehicle is Jul 15-Apr 16. I would like someone to verify and explain to me why my vehicle, which has this problem, isn't included in the recall.

The contact owns a 2016 Chrysler Town and Country. The contact stated that while at a complete stop, the vehicle failed to accelerate upon depression of the accelerator pedal. The contact was forced to place the gear selector into either park(P) or neutral(N), and restarted the vehicle, and the vehicle resumed normal operation after being restarted. The contact stated that on one occasion, the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, and the contact was informed that there was a sensor inside the transmission that was defective, and that the transmission needed to be replaced. The mechanic informed the contact of NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V461000 (Power Train); however, the vehicle was not included in the recall. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 160,000.

The contact owns a 2016 Chrysler Town and Country. The contact stated that the rear passenger’s and driver’s side sliding doors failed to remotely latch properly. The contact had to manually slam the rear sliding doors for the doors to latch securely. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who informed the contact that the vehicle was covered under Technical Service Bulletin: 23-001-25 (Sliding Door Lock(s) Inoperable Warranty Extension X98); however, the contact needed to pay for the door panels, which might crack during the repair. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 117,000.

After the Chrysler dealer in Glendale CA completed Recall S44 – Transmission Oil Pump on my 2016 Chrysler Town & Country in October 3 2025, the transmission began to malfunction and eventually stopped shifting completely. The dealer drained the transmission fluid, removed both front axles, removed all transmission components, and replaced the transmission oil pump, seals, bolts, and torque converter as required by the recall. The transmission is available for inspection upon request. Safety Risk: The vehicle became unsafe to drive when the transmission began shifting erratically and then failed to shift at all, causing sudden loss of acceleration in traffic and posing a risk to myself and others. Diagnostic Codes: Before the recall, the vehicle had code P06DE (Engine Oil Pressure Control). Chrysler has a documented TSB for P06DE requiring a PCM software update, but the dealer did not perform this update during the recall. After the recall, the vehicle developed new code P0760 (Shift Solenoid C Malfunction), which was not present prior to the recall and appeared only after the transmission was reassembled. Inspection and Confirmation: The dealer confirmed P0760 but refused further inspection or repair, stating it was “not related,” despite the failure occurring immediately after major recall-related transmission work. The vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer. The failure is reproducible: the transmission will not shift. Reason for Complaint: This failure happened

I have had two 2016 Town & Country’s both of which have the same issue of the automatic high beam occasionally not turning off for oncoming vehicles. I have in fact been pulled over because they failed to turn off for a Michigan state police officer. The problem occurs most when on a large divided highway such as an interstate or in curves. This has been an issue ongoing with both of them and the sensor has been since discontinued by Chrysler so I can’t try replacing it anymore however the fact that both of mine have done this indicates to me that this is a larger problem.

The contact owns a 2016 Chrysler Town and Country. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed in traffic, the vehicle stalled. The contact shifted to neutral(N) and was able to drive to the intended destination. The contact stated that while driving and attempting to stop the vehicle, the vehicle required to be shifted to neutral(N) repeatedly. In addition, the contact stated that on another occasion, the vehicle independently accelerated, prompting the contact to immediately depress the brake pedal to stop the vehicle. The contact stated that the failure had occurred several times. In addition, the check engine warning light later illuminated. The contact used a fuel treatment to clean the fuel; however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed with thermostat and transmission failure. The contact was provided DTC: P0128 with DTC Severity of 2 of 3. The contact was informed that the thermostat and transmission needed to be replaced. The contact stated that only the thermostat was being replaced. The dealer was made aware of the failure and informed the contact that the VIN was not associated with any recall. The contact referenced an unknown recall with a similar failure description, but the VIN was not associated with the recall. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 133,000.

My 2016 T & C was parked on an incline when about 5 minutes after I exited the vehicle, it began to roll backwards. Van was in park and off. It rolled back and hit a church sign which stopped it from going over a steep bank and into traffic on Route 29 near Gretna, Va. Extensive damage to sign as well as probably total loss of my van. This happened on 10/2/2025 at 11:00 AM

Issue 1) Side slide door on driver side won't open. I could not get my child out and had to crawl across. Won't unlock, won't open manually, won't open electronically, won't unlock with fab. Issue 2) driver window has failed 3 times now. Like clock work every 2 and a half to 3 years it goes out.

I have owned 2 chrysler town and countrys over the past 9 years, a 2010 and a 2016. The rear sliding door has locked up and doesn't allow the door to open. It happened to the 2010 so I decided to get a newer one and now the same thing has happened to the 2016. The 2016 also has a driver window problem where the regularactor breaks and has to be replaced. I have replaced it 4 times in the past year. My son is a mechanic and has urged me not to buy chrysler, but I was loyal so I still have it. I am seriously considering a brand change now due to the annoyance and the safety aspect. I transport my family alot and this problem is putting a big damper on things. I have also researched this on the internet and it seems to be a common problem. Can I ask why there isn't a recall on these issues? Thanks you for your time.

Headrest literally exploded open while driving down the highway with my 15 yr old (who has had 3 brain surgeries) was sitting in the seat. The headrest is now split open and will not "close up". I had a Dodge dealership tell me it was a known problem and they said they would order me a new headrest but it's been 6-9 months and now they will not return my phone calls. Is this a broken active headrest restraint? Seems like a safety hazard for my family that I cannot get it fixed.

Passenger side headrest deployed. Vehicle was not involved in a accident. Was parked at the time. Is available for inspection. No one was hurt, but I'm now afraid that the driver side headrest may deploy while I'm driving and could cause me to have an accident. There was not warning or indication that headrest was faulty or ready to deploy.

Van was driving fine, no issues. Regular maintenance done, and 100,000 mile work completed within last year. One day it was totally fine, the next day it was whining, hopping and driving unsafely. Transmission randomly needs replaced. Throwing codes for low pressure and the pump losing prime. All codes were transmission lost of pressure related and the transmission has an internal failure.

My back sliding door on the left side just locked up and will not release. This car is a 2016 with only approx 43,600 miles . The door just will not open at all. This has a tsb#23-017-20 i found on line where others have complained

The contact owns a 2016 Chrysler Town and Country. The contact stated while driving 65 MPH, the vehicle decelerated and stalled. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, and it was determined that the transmission pump had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The contact was informed that the VIN was not included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V461000 (POWER TRAIN). The contact stated that the vehicle had experienced the failure listed in the recall. The local dealer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 103,000.

A 2015-2016 Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan recall was issued due to a potential loss of motive power. The transmission pump could seize, causing a loss of hydraulic pressure. This recall also includes 2016 Dodge Journey and Ram ProMaster vehicles. To check if your specific vehicle is affected, you'll need your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). This the issue I have with my van.I believe my van should be included in this recall. I cannot trust this vehicle especially on the highway. The transmission is 62TE and was manufactured during the same time as the recalled vehicles. The code reader indicates the hydraulic pumps are not working. I need to have a safe vehicle that I can depend on.

HEAD REST ON PASSENGER FRONT SEAT DEPLOYED/MALFUNCTIONED UNEXPECTEDLY. YES IT IS AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION. IT COULD HAVE HIT MY HUSBAND IN THE HEAD AS HE WAS ENTERING THE VEHICLE. NOW I AM CONCERNED THE SAME MALFUNCTION MAY HAPPEN ON DRIVERS SIDE WHILE VEHICLE IS BEING DRIVEN. NO NO NO WARNING WERE GIVEN

I was pulling up to a red stoplight to stop and the vehicle sputtered to a stop & the engine stalled and I tried to restart the vehicle & it immediately died 2 times. On the 2rd time starting the vehicle it stayed one, I had put on my hazard lights by this time as the light had already turned green and the 2 cars behind me had pulled around me to go through the intersection. Once my car started again, I pulled over to the turn lane & pulled into the gas station parking lot. The car stayed on and was ok until I was almost home. I had pulled up to stop at a stop sign & it reacted similarly; sputtered to a stop then just turned off. No check engine light on or anything. Thankfully ai was able to make it the couple.blocks away to my home.

The contact owns a 2016 Chrysler Town & Country. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed and attempting to accelerate, the RPM increased quickly but the vehicle lost motive power. The contact was able to pull over to the shoulder of the roadway, where the failure persisted, and the contact became aware that the vehicle failed to respond while in reverse. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, who diagnosed a failure with the transmission pump. The vehicle was not repaired. After investigating the failure, the contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V461000 (Power Train), but the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but provided no assistance. The failure mileage was 77,000.

The transmission on my 2016 Chrysler Town & Country with a 62TE transmission is faulty. The pumps inside the transmission are not working and seizing up. I checked with recalls and according to Mopar, there is no recall on my particular vin number. But I have read that a recall was issued for 2016 Chrysler and Dodge products with the same 62TE transmission as mine. I would like to register a complaint, I believe my van should be included in the recall and want someone to investigate. I have also many other minivan owners with 62TE transmissions have experienced the same problem. I believe my van was missed in the initial recall and would like to believe this problem can be addressed.

First incident. Driver side sliding door lock failed. Sliding door could not be unlocked and opened from inside or outside the vehicle. Had to use other sliding door to exit van. Door had to be dismantled and failed latch replaced. Approximately 7 years old and roughly 52,000 miles. This was around 9/2023. Second incident. Passenger side sliding door lock failed. Sliding door could not be unlocked and opened from inside or outside the vehicle. Had to use other sliding door to exit / enter van. Scheduled to go in for failed latch replacement at Chrysler dealer. Approximately 9 years old and roughly 63,000 miles. Either one of these unexpected failed door latch incidents could have led to injury or possibly death.

For the last few weeks my car has been stalling when I come to a complete stop or as I am breaking. Sometimes it takes as many as 7 tries of putting it in park, turning it off and turning it back on. The check engine light is not on. Mechanic cannot determine problem. I have found hundreds of other claims saying the same thing with no resolution found. This has been a reoccuring problem and is inconsistent. Can happen 5 times in a 5 mile trip and 0 times in a 50 mile trip.

The contact owns a 2016 Chrysler Town and Country. The contact stated while driving at 30 MPH and depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle failed to respond as intended. The contact stated that a dealer was contacted, and the vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed with transmission failure. The contact was informed that the transmission pump had failed, and the transmission needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and informed the contact that the VIN was not under recall. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V461000 (Power Train). The approximate failure mileage was 120,000.

I purchased a used 2016 Chrysler Town & Country in February 2017 at 33,000 miles. At 77,000 miles, the transmission failed and had to be replaced, just beyond the 65,000-mile warranty. The second transmission has now failed again just beyond 100,000 miles. In addition to the repeated transmission failures, this vehicle was manufactured without a transmission dipstick, which Chrysler made proprietary. Multiple mechanics confirmed that checking or maintaining transmission fluid requires special tools or dealer-only service, making regular maintenance nearly impossible for owners. This design flaw contributes to premature failure of the transmission and creates a safety and reliability risk. Chrysler must be held accountable for releasing a vehicle with limited serviceability and repeat major component failures. I am requesting the NHTSA investigate this issue for safety, design defect, and potential recall.

The contact owns a 2016 Chrysler Town & Country. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the engine seized. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was restarted after several attempts; however, the failure reoccurred. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed with transmission pump module failure. The contact was informed that the transmission pump needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. In addition, the contact stated the failure had occurred with an infant child inside the vehicle. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 116,000.

The transmission studders and temporarily loss of power. Chrysler is aware of issue but will not do anything until nhtsa makes a recall. This is our family of 5 primary vehicle, and we are afraid of this issues causing an accident that can cause harm if not death. I thought the S44 recall would cover the vehicle but it's not listed.

Transmission failed while driving in the highway. There’s a recall S44 but my vin is not included in the list while my car has the same symptoms that the cars included in that recall.

The middle seat (driver side) was sitting properly, it clicked into place and wasn’t folded for months. It suddenly decided to fold on my child while we were driving. It hurt my child and it took an hour to get him to calm down and even be ok with going back into the van

I received a letter from Chrysler regarding TSB #23-017-20 regarding the rear sliding doors unable to be opened either electrically or manually a few years ago.

The vin number came back as not qualifying for the service bulletin. These
