DODGE CARAVAN. CONSUMER WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF THERE ARE ANY EXISTING FACTORY RECALLS ON VEHICLE. *LD *TR

FUEL PUMP CONTINUES TO STAY ON WHEN VEHICLE IS OFF WITH NO KEY IN IGNITION. THIS IS CAUSING BATTERY DRAIN AND HARD STARTS AFTER JUMPING BATTERY. CAR ALSO IS STALLING AT TIMES WHILE IN MOTION. I HAVE SEEN A RECALL FOR OTHER MALES AND MODELS OF SAME YEAR FROM MOPAR VEHICLES, SUCH AS DURANGO. IT SEEMS TO BE FUEL PUMP RELAY IN TIPM.

WAS IN THE RURAL AREA SO TRAFFIC WAS LIGHT...DAUGHTER AND GRANDDAUGHTER WAS IN VAN WITH ME ...THIS COULD HAVE BEEN TRAGIC IF I HAD BEEN ON INTERSTATE OR ON BUSY HIGHWAY...WAS TOLD BY MACHANIC THAT FUEL RELAY TIPM GONE OUT

2012 DODGE CARAVAN SUDDENLY SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING LOSING THE ABILITY TO BRAKE OR STEER, WITH NO WARNING SIGNS FROM THE VEHICLE. AFTER RESEARCH, THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR DODGE CARAVANS RESULTING IN SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERNS.

VECHILE STALLS WHILE DRIVING WITH NO WARING. NO INSTRUMENT LIGHTS OR HESITATION. THIS NOW HAS HAPPEN TO ME 3 TIME. SPEED RANGING FROM 25-55 MPH. WAS ABLE TO GET THE VAN INTO NETUREL AND RESTARTED WHILE THE VAN WAS COASTING WITHOUT POWER. IT WAS A GOOD THING I DIDNT HAVE ANYONE FOLLOWING TOO CLOSELY. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM. SOMETHING NEEDS DONE ABOUT THIS BEFORE SOMEONE HAS A VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT.

THE FUEL PUMP RELAY SWITCH WON'T SHUT OFF. IT RUN DOEN BATTERY AND KILKS THE WHOLE VAN.

VAN STOP STARTING WILL CRANK BUT NOT STARTTIPM BAD SHUT DOWN WHILE IN USE

HORN SOUNDS WHEN LOCKING WITH KEY FOB OR WHEN ALARM BUTTON ON KEY FOB IS USED. DISCOVERED WHEN ANOTHER DRIVER TURNED IN FRONT OF ME WITHOUT LOOKING AND NEARLY CRASHED. THIS IS A DEFINITE SAFETY PROBLEM. CHECKING THE INTERNET THERE ARE A NUMBER OF CHRYSLER VEHICLES THAT HAVE THIS PROBLEM. VEHICLE WILL NOT PASS STATE INSPECTION IN CURRENT CONDITION AND I AM NOT DRIVING IT FOR SAFETY REASONS. *TR

MY VAN SHOWED THE BATTERY LIGHT I WENT TO GET THE BATTERY CHECKED OUT. THE TEST CAME BACK BAD BATTERY. I BOUGHT A NEW ONE EVERYTHING CHECKED GOOD. THE NEXT DAY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, AIR BAG LIGHT, ABS LIGHT AND BATTERY LIGHT LIT UP. AFTER THAT THE VAN WOULD NOT START. WE CHECKED FUSES THEY WERE GOOD. THE VAN WILL NOT START, IT WILL CRANK LIKE TRYING TO START BUT WILL NOT. WE ONLY HAVE 55000 MILES ON IT AND ARE BEING TOLD THE ROOM IS BAD.

WHILE VEHICLE IS IN DRIVE, THE CAR WILL STALL AND THE VEHICLE WILL SHUT DOWN. EVERYTHING INCLUDING RADIO, AIR CONDITIONER AND PANEL SHUTS DOWN. THIS HAPPENS MULTIPLE TIMES WITHOUT WARNING. I THEN HAVE TO TURN THE KEY TO OFF THEN RESTART. IT MOSTLY HAPPENS WHEN VEHICLE IS MAKING A TURN.

I WAS IN THE DRIVEWAY THE FIRST TIME ACTED LIKE IT WAS GOING TO START THEN DIED ALL LIGHTS ON PANEL LITE UP HAD TOWED TO GALEANA DODGE FOUND IT WAS THE TIPM MODULE. COST OVER $1,000 TO FIX. TRIED TALKING TO DODGE CORPORATE TO TRY TO GET MONEY BACK AFTER NOTICING SO MANY COMPLAINTS AND NO HELP FROM THEM. NOW MY CAR IS BACK IN THE SHOP WITH SAME ISSUE, 3 WEEKS LATER. NO LOANER CAR AVAILABLE. MY ONLY VEHICLE. THIS TIME I WAS DRIVING AND THE CAR STALLED AND THEN ALL THE LIGHTS CAME ON AGAIN. WAITING TO HEAR WHAT IS THIS TIME SOUNDS LIKE THE SAME THING AGAIN. WAS TOLD BY CORPORATE TO POST COMPLAINT HERE AND MAYBE THERE WOULD BE RECALL THAT'S ALL THE HELP THEY OFFERED. WOW WAY TO KEEP CUSTOMERS DODGE. THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED WAS ON 3/5/2016 THE SECOND TIME WAS ON 4/4/2016.

FLAMES ERUPTED FROM THE ARMREST MAKING ESCAPE FROM VEHICLE DIFFICULT. FDNY WAS CALLED & EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. THIS HAPPENED EARLY FRIDAY MORNING/SNOWING. INSURANCE COMPANY EXAMINED CAR & AUTHORIZED REPAIR. CHRYSLER SENT AN ENGINEERING SAFETY INSPECTOR WHO HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO A DODGE DEALERSHIP WHERE INVESTIGATION WAS PERFORMED. WE RECEIVED A "SAFETY RECALL NOTICE" [ P25/NHTSA 14V-234] LATER THAT SAME DAY. CHRYSLER HAS IGNORED MY CALLS & LIVE-CHATS FOR THE PAST MONTH. DEALERSHIP STILL HAS THE VEHICLE BUT CAN'T GET A RESPONSE FROM CHRYSLER EITHER. INCIDENT OCCURRED 4 WEEKS AGO! HAVE BEEN FORCED TO RENT A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE -- AT MY EXPENSE -- FOR TRANSPORTATION PURPOSES.

VAN SHUTS OFF AND COMPLETELY LOSES POWER WHILE MOVING WITHOUT WARNING. MUST BE PLACED IN PARK AND SOMETIMES RESTARTS. HAS BEEN TAKEN TO DEALER WHO COULD NOT FIND SPEIFIC REASON FOR THIS PARTICULAR PROBLEM.

THE PROBLEM WITH MY 2012 DODGE CARAVAN IS DRIVING ALONG EASILY ON CITY STREETS BECAUSE WITH THIS PROBLEM IT CANT BE PUT ON THE INTERSTATE, WHEN GETTING READY TO GO UP A HILL AND IT GOES OUT OF GEAR, THE RPM HAND GOES AS FAR AS IT CAN GO, SOMETIMES EASING OF THE GAS THE RPM HAND WILL GO DOWN TO 1 AND THE TRANSMISSION WILL KNOCK, CHECK ENGINE LIKE WILL COME ON AND IT'LL GO BACK INTO GEAR, BUT SOMETIME YOU'LL HAVE TO PULL OVER AND PUT IT IN PARK AND TURN IT OFF AND START ALL OVER AGAIN, JUST FOR IT TO DO THE SAME EXACT THEN, AND REMIND YOU, YOU CAN'T GO OVER 50MPH IF 50. I'VE HAD THE TRANSMISSION SENSOR FLASHED AND THAT DIDN'T HELP, I HAD IT PUT ON A MACHINE AND IT READS 6TH GEAR OUT OF RATIO

INSTALLED A CURTIS TOWING HITCH AND WIRING HARNESS FOR TRAILER LIGHTS, TWO WIRING HARNESS MODULES FOR TRAILER LIGHTS HAVE GONE BAD AFTER ONLY A SHORT TIME OF USE, CURTIS MANUF. SAYS THAT THEY ARE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM ONLY WITH CERTAIN DODGE MODELS AND SEEMS THAT MINE IS ONE OF THEM. THEY SAID THAT A RECALL MAY APPEAR DEALING WITH THE ECM AND SYSTEM UNDER THE HEADING OF "TIPUM". I HAVE CONTACTED DODGE ABOUT THIS BUT THEY DON'T REPLY. THIS HAS BEEN ON -GOING PROBLEM FOR ABOUT A YEAR. CURTIS MANUF. HAS REPLACED THE LIGHT MODULE UNIT TWICE. IF THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE CAR REPLACING LIGHT MODULE ISN'T GOING TO DO A THING EXCEPT KEEP GOING BAD. IF THE PROBLEM IS WITH CURTIS MANUF. AND THEY AREN'T OWNING UP TO IT, WHAT WOULD BE MY OPTION TO PROCEED? THANK YOU FOR ANY HELP YOU CAN PROVIDE.ALSO THE VEHICLE HASN'T HAD ANY ISSUES BEFORE OR NOW EVEN AFTER HAVING TWO LIGHT MODULES FOR THE TRAILER LIGHTS HAVE GONE BAD, WITH THE LIGHTS OR ELECTRONICS ON VEHICLE. *TR

2012 DODGE CARAVAN CONTINUALLY STALLS WHILE DRIVING AROUND ON THE HIGHWAY. USUALLY HAPPENS WHEN WE COME TO A STOP. OFTEN, THE VEHICLE RUNS ROUGH AND STALLS AFTER IDLING. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON REPEATEDLY, NEARLY WEEKLY THEN GOES OFF AFTER THREE SUCCESSFUL STARTS. HAVE TAKEN THE VAN TWICE TO LITHIA IN MEDFORD TO CHECK AND THEY LOCATED A RECALL ON THE HEADER. THE HEADER WAS REPLACED BUT THE PROBLEM PERSISTED. THE CHECK ENGINE HAS LOGGED MULTIPLE "MIS-FIRE" ERRORS AND NO OTHER ERRORS. THE PROBLEM, TO THIS DAY, HAS NOT BEEN LOCATED AND THUS THEY TELL US THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. MEANWHILE, WE CONTINUE TO HAVE "MIS-FIRE" ERRORS AND STALL OUT IN INTERSECTIONS ALL OVER THE PLACE. ON THE FIRST VISIT, NEARLY TWO YEARS AGO NOW, LITHIA ALSO DISCONNECTED THE REAR WINDOW CONTROLS FOR A RECALL. THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE AND THE VEHICLE WAS SENT HOME. JUST OVER A YEAR AGO WE RETURNED THE VEHICLE TO HAVE THE MIS-FIRE PROBLEM CHECKED AND LITHIA STATED THEY STILL DID NOT HAVE PARTS FOR OUR REAR WINDOW RECALL. THEY TOLD US THEY ADDED US TO THE WAITING LIST. ITS BEEN NEARLY TWO YEARS, I'VE RECEIVED MY SECOND NOTICE ON THIS RECALL AND I STILL DON'T HAVE CONTROL OF MY REAR WINDOWS. I BELIEVE TWO YEARS IS VERY UNREASONABLE TO WAIT FOR A RECALL FIX.

THE VEHICLE TIPM MODULE NEEDS REPLACING REGISTERED MECHANIC STATED THE MODULE MALFUNCTIONING IS THE PROBLEM FOR ME FUEL PUMP GOING OUT AND THE DRAINAGE OF TWO BATTERIES I PURCHASE. AND THE PROBLEM FOR OTHER ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS THAT HAVE OCCURRED WITH THE VEHICLE.

I BOUGHT MY 2012 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN IN MARCH OF 2012, AND BY THE END OF THAT SAME YEAR HAD TO HAVE NEW TIRE PUT ON THE FRONT OF THE VAN, (THEY WERE COMPLETELY WORN). I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE ELECTRONIC DRIVERS SET NOT WORKING IN FACT HAS NOT WORKED PROPERLY SINCE I HAVE HAD THE VAN, AND WHEN I TOOK IT TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT THEY OF COURSE COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG, TO THIS DATE IT IS STUCK IN THE SAME POSITION AND WILL NOT MOVE. THE SLIDING AUTOMATIC DOORS, AT TIMES DO NOT WORK FOR GREAT PERIODS OF TIME AND SOUND VERY GRINDING WHEN THEY ARE WORKING. THEN WITH IN THOSE SAME FEW MONTHS IN 2012 THE VAN STARTED TO RUST INSIDE THE GAS DOOR. IT HAS BEEN FIXED TWICE ALREADY AT DEALERSHIP AND STILL RUSTS! I HAVE ALSO HAD TO REPLACE THE BREAKS AND ROTORS ON THE BACK AND NOW THEY ARE NEEDING TO BE DONE ON THE FRONT. I HAVE APPROX. 30,000 MILES ON MY VAN. THE OTHER COMPLAINT WITH VAN IS THE LACK OF A/C POWER, AND THAT IT SOMETIMES FEELS THAT THE ENGINE IS BOGGED DOWN WITH NO LOAD, OR IS HESITANT JERKY.

I HAVE A DODGE CARAVAN 2012 AND TAKING IT IN FOR SEVERAL ELECTRICAL ISSUES. WHEN IT WAS SENT TO THE DALLAS DODGE IN DALLAS, GA THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH CAR KILLING TWO BRAND NEW BATTERIES.

SO I HAD IT SENT BACK TO THEM AND THEY CHECK IT AGAIN AND DID NOT FIND ANYTHING. I GOT IT BACK THE NEXT DAY WHICH WAS A SATURDAY AFTER SITTING THERE MAKING SURE THEY CHECK EVERYTHING. BASICALLY THEY SAID THE BATTERY WAS DEAD AND NOTHING WAS WRONG. I TOLD THEM IF I HAD ANY ISSUES I WOULD BRING IT BACK ON MONDAY. I ADVISED I WILL REMOVE THE BATTERY CABLE TO AT LEAST GO TO CHURCH THE NEXT DAY. WHEN I GOT HOME FROM CHURCH I DID NOT TAKE CABLE OFF AND BATTERY DIED AGAIN. SO ON MONDAY 8/17, I WAS AT THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN. THEY SAID THE PUT IT ON A COMPUTER SYSTEM FOR SEVERAL HOURS AND ONLY NOTICE THAT MY BATTERY WAS HAVE WAY DRAINED.
