ON DECEMBER 11, 2014 I WALKED TO THE PARKING LOT TO FIND MY VAN ACTING TOTALLY CRAZY (THE POLTERGEIST). THE HORN WAS HONKING, WINDSHIELD WIPERS WERE GOING FULL SPEED, WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID WAS SPRAYING EVERYWHERE AND THE INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL LIGHTS WERE FLASHING. I ATTEMPTED TO USE MY KEY FAB TO UNLOCK THE DOORS BUT IT DID NOT WORK. I MANUALLY ENTERED THE VAN IN HOPES THAT STARTING THE VAN WOULD STOP THE POLTERGEIST. THE VAN WOULD NOT START. AFTER ABOUT 20 MINUTES, ALL THAT REMAINED WAS A SOFT HORN CONSTANTLY HONKING AND THE LIGHTS SPORADICALLY FLASHING. I HIT THE UNLOCK BUTTON ON THE KEY FAB THE HORN HONKED LOUDLY. I HIT THE LOCK BUTTON ON THE KEY FAB THE WASHER FLUID SPRAYED. I CALLED A TOW TRUCK AND THEY JUMP STARTED THE VAN. I DROVE IT HOME WITH NO ADDITIONAL PROBLEMS. I HAD THE BATTERY REPLACED THE NEXT DAY ASSUMING THAT THEY MAY BE THE ISSUE. THIS OCCURRED AGAIN AS I WAS DRIVING HOME, AT NIGHT, I PARKED THE VAN, TURNED OFF THE VAN AND PULLED THE KEY FAB OUT OF THE IGNITION. THE VAN REMAINED RUNNING. TWO DAYS LATER, AS I WAS DRIVING, THE ABS LIGHT, EMERGENCY BRAKE LIGHT, TRACTION LIGHT AND ONE OTHER INDICATOR LIGHT APPEARED ON MY DASHBOARD (THE LIGHT INDICATORS). THEN, MY ABS BRAKES SLIGHTLY ENGAGED WITHOUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. THESE PROBLEMS HAVE CONTINUED TO SPORADICALLY APPEAR. NO DEALERSHIP CAN FIX.

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING MY 3 CHILDREN (AGES 5, 3, AND 18 MONTHS) HOME IN OUR 2008 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN. AS SHE WAS PULLING UP TO A STOP SIGN, THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED INADVERTENTLY. ALTHOUGH, NO ONE WAS INJURED, IT WAS QUITE TRAUMATIC FOR MY KIDS. THEY WOULD NOT RE-ENTER THE VAN AND HAD TO RECEIVE A RIDE HOME FROM A LOCAL POLICE OFFICER. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER THE NEXT DAY. IT TOOK THEM OVER TWO WEEKS TO SEND SOMEONE TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE. DURING THAT TIME, AFTER HAVING LEFT REPEATED MESSAGES WITH CHRYSLER, SOMEONE FINALLY CALLED ME BACK AND SAID THAT WOULD NOT PROVIDE A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE DURING THE INVESTIGATION, AND THEY BASICALLY BLAMED ME FOR THE INCIDENT. THEY SAID THERE WERE RECALLS ON THE VAN THAT WERE NOT ADDRESSED. I INFORMED HIM THAT I HAD NOT SEEN ANY RECALL REGARDING AIRBAG SAFETY. THE MAN ON THE PHONE HAD 2 ADDRESSES ON FILE, OF WHICH NEITHER WAS CURRENTLY ACCURATE. HE SAID THAT I SHOULD HAVE CONTACTED THEM WHEN WE MOVED. FINALLY AFTER ALMOST 4 WEEKS, THEY WROTE ME A LETTER SAYING THAT THEY WERE NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY. THEY TOLD ME THAT I SHOULD REPORT THE INCIDENT TO MY INSURANCE COMPANY TO HAVE THEM COVER IT. SINCE THEN, I HAVE FOUND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL TO THE HVAC DRAIN TUBE AND GROMMET THAT COULD LEAK AND CAUSE MALFUNCTION TO THE AIRBAGS. *JS

WHILE DRIVING THE VAN AT 65 MPH WHILE ON RT.23 ON MY WAY TO FINDLAY, OHIO, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS CYCLED A COUPLE TIMES, THE GAUGES WENT TO ZERO, THE RADIO TURNED OFF AND THE WARNING ALARM WENT OFF A COUPLE TIMES. THIS OCCURED TWICE WHILE I WAS DRIVING TO FINDLAY AND TWICE ON MY WAY BACK HOME. EACH TIME, THE VAN CONTINUED TO RUN. AT THE TIME BOTH HANDS WERE ON THE STEERING WHEEL. I KNOW THE DATE BECAUSE I WAS HEADED TO MY SON'S SOCCER GAME AT THE UNIVERSITY OF FINDLAY. IT WAS A VERY UN-NERVING EXPERIENCE. ON OTHER DATES THE WIPERS HAVE RUN BY THEMSELVES AND EVEN SPRAYED WINDSHIELD CLEANER FOR A BRIEF PERIOD. I HAVE NOTICED THAT OTHER PEOPLE HAVE REPORTED THE SAME BEHAVIOR ON THEIR VANS. I WANTED TO MAKE SURE MY EXPERIENCE WAS NOTED. IT APPEARS THE SITUATION CAN BECOME MUCH WORSE. *JS

ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS BEGINNING ON DECEMBER 12, 2014 MY 08 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN SXT WOULD HAVE RANDOM ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTIONS INCLUDING SYNCED, INTERMITTENT ACTIVATION OF HORNS, FRONT WIPERS, REAR WIPERS, FRONT WASHER FLUID SPRAY, REAR WASHER FLUID SPRAY, AND DOOR LOCKS. THESE ISSUES WOULD GENERALLY COME TOGETHER IN "EPISODES" THAT COULD LAST FROM ABOUT A MINUTE TO ABOUT 10 MINUTES. THESE EPISODES COULD OCCUR IN RAPID SUCCESSION, SEPARATED BY ONLY A FEW SECONDS, OR THEY MIGHT HAVE 5-10 MINUTES OR SOMETIMES DAYS BETWEEN HAPPENINGS. THIS WOULD CAUSE SUDDEN LOSS OF VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING, AS THE SPRAYERS WOULD COVER THE WINDSHIELD WITH DROPS BUT THE WIPERS WOULD NOT COMPLETE A PASS TO REMOVE THE FLUID. IT WAS PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS AT NIGHT, SINCE THE DROPS WOULD REFRACT LIGHT AND MAKE VISIBILITY ALMOST ZERO. THIS ALSO RESULTED IN BEING LOCKED OUT OF THE VEHICLE ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, THE REMOTE "CLICKER" COULD NOT BE USED TO UNLOCK OR OPEN DOORS OR LIFT-GATE. THE ONLY WAY TO ENTER THE VEHICLE WAS TO USE THE PHYSICAL KEY AND FORCE THE LOCK TO TURN AGAINST THE PRESSURE OF THE POWERED DOOR LOCK MOTOR REPEATEDLY RE-LOCKING THE DOORS OTHER INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS. WHY DOESN'T DODGE RECALL AND FIX THIS PROBLEM? *TR

WE WENT OUT TO CAR TO GET IN IT, AND ALL DOORS WERE LOCKED AND WOULD NOT UNLOCK. HORN STARTED BLARING. WINDSHIELD WIPERS WENT CRAZY WITH WINDSHIELD WIPER FLUID SPRAYING. HEADLIGHTS WERE BLINKING ON AND OFF. FINALLY ABLE TO GET IN CAR, THINGS FINALLY CALMED DOWN AFTER ABOUT 10 - 15 MINUTES. NEXT DAY, WE TOOK IT TO DEALERSHIP. THEY TESTED IT, AND THEY SAID THEY DID NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. SIMILAR EPISODES HAPPENED AFTER THAT ONE WHICH INCLUDED TAKING THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION, AND THE CAR WAS STILL RUNNING. WE TOOK IT TO A DIFFERENT DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT CHECKED, AND THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. IN ADDITION, WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED BUT IT TOOK A GREATER DISTANCE TO STOP THE VEHICLE.

I WAS DRIVING AT 45 MPH WHEN SUDDENLY VAN REVVED UP FROM 1500 RPM TO 3500 RPM, AND SPEED WENT DOWN TO 30 MPH. SOMEHOW I GOT MY CAR TO MY WORK PLACE AND PARKED IT. I SUSPECTED MY TRANSMISSION HAD GONE BAD. I DECIDED TO TAKE MY CAR TO A TRANSMISSION SHOP. I DROVE THE VAN AT 30 MPH AT 3500 RPM TO THE TRANSMISSION SHOP. THEIR TECHNICIAN DROVE THE VAN AROUND, DID SOME OTHER INSPECTION AND REPORTED THAT THERE WAS NO PROBLEM WITH MY TRANSMISSION. HOWEVER HE MENTIONED THERE WAS A ELECTRICAL POWER LOSS WHICH MADE MY VAN GO INTO LIMP MODE. REMARKABLY MY VAN STARTED DRIVING NORMALLY AFTER THE INSPECTION. I TOOK MY VAN TO AUTHORIZED DODGE DEALER. THEY PULLED SOME CODES FROM THE COMPUTER WHICH INDICATED POWER LOSS TO SEVERAL EQUIPMENT. THEY SUSPECTED THE TIPM MODULE, BUT DID NOT HAVE HARD EVIDENCE FROM THE CODES. THEY ADVISED ME TO LEAVE VAN OVERNIGHT AT THE SERVICE AREA, AND HAVE THEM CHECK IT OUT. I DECLINED BECAUSE ARRANGING ALTERNATE TRANSPORTATION WAS DIFFICULT. TODAY MORNING, WHILE DRIVING THE VAN, WIPER BLADE SUDDENLY STARTED RUNNING. IT STOPPED ON ITS OWN AFTER FEW CYCLES. NOW I AM UNABLE TO START THE VAN. READING THROUGH FORUMS WHERE DRIVERS HAVE EXPERIENCED SIMILAR ISSUES, I AM CONFIDENT IT IS THE TIPM ON MY VAN. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE, SINCE I DRIVE ON THE FREEWAY A LOT, AND IF VAN GOES INTO LIMP MODE, IT WILL BE A HAZARD. LOOKS LIKE DODGE IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE. WHY DON'T THEY ACCEPT THE SITUATION AND DEAL WITH IT BY ISSUING A SAFETY RECALL AND FIXING THE TIPM. PLEASE FORCE DODG
