2013 Dodge Grand Caravan complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEATING SYSTEM FAILED AND THE DRIVER'S SIDE VENTS PRODUCED COLD AIR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO GANDRUD DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP (2300 AUTO PLAZA WAY, GREEN BAY, WISCONSIN 54302, 920-468-1212) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FRONT AND REAR PASSENGER ACTUATORS FAILED. THE FRONT ACTUATOR WAS REPLACED, BUT THE REAR ACTUATOR WAS NOT. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE 2013 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE MANUFACTURER WARRANTED ACTUATOR REPLACEMENT. THE REPAIR WAS ONLY EXTENDED TO THE 2014 AND 2015 DODGE GRAND CARAVANS. THE CONTACT WANTED TO PROVIDE THE FAILED ACTUATOR HEATER (PART NUMBER: 68299450AA). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,787.

THE VEHICLE WILL STALL WHILE I AM DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. IT HAS HAPPENED MORE TIME THAN I CAN COUNT. INITIALLY I WAS TOLD IT MIGHT BE AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE, SO THEY CHANGED THE SPARK PLUGS. THE CAR DIED AGAIN, HAD TO GET TOWED TO THE MECHANIC AGAIN. THIS TIME THEY SAID IT MIGHT BE THE BATTERIES. I CHANGED THE BATTERIES. THEN IT DIED AGAIN, THEY SAID IT MIGHT BE THE COMPUTERS, MIND YOU THIS IS A 2013 BRAND NEW VEHICLE, I AM CHANGING THE COMPUTER SYSTEM IN 2017 EVEN THOUGH IT HAD OVER 115000 AT THIS POINT. I AUTHORIZED THEM TO KEEP THE VEHICLE AND PUT AS MUCH MILES ON IT UNTIL THE PROBLEM REPLICATED ITSELF. THEY HAD IT FOR OVER 2 MONTHS. I GOT IT BACK IN AND IT DIED ON MY WAY TO WORK AGAIN. THIS TIME I WENT TO A DIFFERENT MECHANIC WHO IS NOT THE DEALER. THEY SAID IT WAS THE FUEL PUMP. I CHANGED THE FUEL PUMP, THE VEHICLE WORKED FOR 1 AND A HALF WEEKS BEFORE IT DIED ON ME AGAIN THIS WEEK ON MY WAY TO WORK. I HAVE CHANGED MOST IF NOT ALL PARTS OF MY FRANKENSTEIN VEHICLE, WHICH MIND YOU IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD. AT THIS POINT I AM SO FRUSTRATED I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. I HAVE SPENT OVER $5000 FIXING MY VEHICLE WITH NO GUARANTEE THAT SHE WILL NOT BREAK DOWN. I HAVE CONTACTED CAPITALONE AUTO FINANCE AND EXPLAINED THAT I CANNOT AFFORD TO KEEP PAYING FOR A CAR THAT I AM NOT USING. I CALLED DODGE TO REPORT THE ISSUE AND THEY SAID THEY CANNOT HELP ME. AT THIS POINT I AM GETTING READY TO FILE A LEMON LAW COMPLAINT AND USING SOCIAL MEDIA TO VOICE MY CONCERNS UNTIL MY ISSUE IS RESOLVED.

CAR STALLS UNEXPECTEDLY WHILE DRIVING. THE ENGINE STOPS AND THERE IS A COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER. POWER STEERING FAILS AND IT IS DIFFICULT TO MANOUVER VEHICLE. I CAN SUCCESSFULLY RESTART THE VEHICLE BY EITHER STOPPING THE CAR, SHIFTING INTO PARK, AND RESTARTING BY TURNING THE KEY, OR SHIFTING INTO NEUTRAL WHILE THE CAR IS STILL IN MOTION, THEN TURNING THE KEY TO RESTART, AND THEN SHIFTING BACK INTO DRIVE. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 10 TIMES ON THE FREEWAY GOING AT FREEWAY SPEEDS OVER THE PAST YEAR, AND DMORE THAN 50 TIMES ON SURFACE STREETS. OFTEN THIS HAPPENS WHEN HITTING A BUMP IN THE ROAD, BUT SOMETIMES THERE ISN'T AN OBVIOUS CAUSE. ONCE WHILE DRIVING ON A BUMPY DIRT ROAD IT REPEATEDLY STALLED, BUT WHEN I HELD THE KEY IN PLACE, IT STOPPED STALLING. WE HAD THE DEALER LOOK AT IT AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANY PROBLEMS. WE REPLACED THE KEY THINKING THAT MIGHT HELP, AND IT SEEMED TO FOR A FEW MONTHS, BUT NOW THE PROBLEM IS WORSE THAN EVER, STALLING AT LEAST SEVERAL TIMES A WEEK. IN THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS THE CAR ALMOST ALWAYS WON'T START ON THE INITIAL KEY TURN. I HAVE TO HOLD IT IN START POSITION FOR SEVERAL SECONDS LONGER THAN NORMAL, AND I HAVE TO GIVE IT SOME GAS AND REV THE ENGINE FOR IT TO START. HAVING THE CAR STALL AT ANY POINT WHILE DRIVING IS FRIGHTENING, BUT WHEN THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY, IT IS TERRIFYING AND HORRIBLY DANGEROUS FOR ME, MY FAMILY, AND OTHER VEHICLES AROUND ME.

THE VAN RANDOMLY AND WITH NO WARNING LOSES POWER STEERING AND LOCKS THE GAS PEDAL SO IT CANNOT BE PRESSED WHILE DRIVING AROUND 25-35 MPH. PUTTING THE VAN IN PARK AND RESTARTING THE CAR FIXES THE PROBLEM. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 8 TIMES IN THE LAST 4 MONTHS. MECHANIC HAS TRIED TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND THE PROBLEM CONTINUES TO BE AN ISSUE. IT SEEMS TO HAPPEN NEAR STOPLIGHTS WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION. IT ALSO SEEMS TO OCCUR WITHIN 10-20 MINUTES OF STARTING THE VEHICLE. ON ONE OCCASION THE BRAKES LOCKED UP WITH THE STEERING. NO ENGINE LIGHTS TURN ON WHEN IT HAPPENS, AND IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM ON DEMAND. THROUGH SOCIAL NETWORKING AND RESEARCHING THE PROBLEM ONLINE MANY OTHER DODGE CARAVANS AND CHRYSLER VANS HAVE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH NO SOLUTION.

VEHICLE WOULD NOT START, TOOK TO GARAGE THEY SAID FUEL PUMP, STILL WOULD NOT WORK, TOOK BACK THEY SAID TIPM, HAD IT CHANGED, GOT VAN BACK NOW THE SIGNAL LIGHTS DON'T WORK TOOK BACK THEY TEST IT AND GUESS WHAT TIPM AGAIN, SO NOW AFTER NEARLY 3000 IN REPAIRS AND 800 IN RENTALS I AM WAITING ANOTHER WEEK FOR ANOTHER TIPM NOT IMPRESSED AT ALL. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE IT IS FAR TO COMMON AND SHOULD BE MADE A FULL RECALL, I KNOW OF FOUR FAILURES IN THE LAST WEEK IN MY LITTLE AREA ALONE. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE, THIS PROBLEM CAN AFFECT ANY COMPONENT OF THE VEHICLE FROM BRAKES TO AIR BAGS TO ANYTHING THAT IS RUN BY A FUSE WHICH IS PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING, SOMEONE IS GOING TO BE SERIOUSLY INJURED BECAUSE OF THIS IF THERE HASN'T BEEN ALREADY.

DRIVER'S HEADREST POPPED WHILE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED. CAUSED PAIN AND SUFFERING FOR DRIVER... HAD TO SEEK MEDICAL HELP (CHIROPRACTOR). DODGE REFUSED TO PAY FOR REPLACEMENT FOR THIS SAFETY DEVICE.

THE FIRST OCCURRENCE WAS WHEN I WAS DRIVING ON AN INTERSTATE, ABOUT 65 MPH, WHEN THE ENGINE ABRUPTLY STALLED. I CHANGED SEVERAL LANES ONTO THE SHOULDER AND CALL A TOW TRUCK, BUT BEFORE IT ARRIVED, IT WAS ABLE TO START AGAIN, AFTER ~30 MINUTES. THIS SAME BEHAVIOR HAS HAPPENED 4 MORE TIMES (TOTAL OF 5 TIMES IN A YEAR, OR ABOUT 15K MILES), SOMETIMES WEEKS APART, SOMETIMES MONTHS. THE OTHER OCCASIONS WERE SLOWER, 25-40 MPH. THE DODGE DEALERSHIP WAS UNHELPFUL DIAGNOSING THE PROBLEM, AS ALL SYSTEMS APPEAR FINE UNTIL THE PROBLEM APPEARS, WHICH THEY UNSURPRISINGLY COULD NOT PROVOKE. ON EACH OCCASION, WHEN WE TRY TO START THE CAR AGAIN, IT SOUNDS AS IF IT HAS NO FUEL, BUT AFTER ~30 MIN. OF SITTING, IT STARTS AGAIN AND DRIVES JUST FINE. IT IS VERY UNNERVING TO ALWAYS HAVE TO CONSIDER THAT THE CAR MAY SIMPLY STALL, THIS IS ABSOLUTELY A SAFETY CONCERN. CURRENTLY I PLAN TO REPLACE THE TIPM MODULE, AS IT SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN A SOURCE OF PROBLEMS ON MANY CHRYSLER MODELS. I WILL JUST CROSS MY FINGERS THAT IT DOESN'T HAPPEN AGAIN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO DAYTON ANDREWS CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (2388 GULF TO BAY BLVD, CLEARWATER, FL 33765, (727) 799-4539) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL PUMP RELAY FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 98,000.

VEHICLE HAS ABRUPTLY SHUT DOWN DURING OPERATION AT SPEEDS GREATER THAN 60 MPH. I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY GUIDE VEHICLE TO AN AVAILABLE SHOULDER AREA AND RESTART. THE SHUT DOWN CAME WITH DASH LIGHTS OF SERVICE ENGINE SOON AND BATTERY LIGHT. THESE LIGHTS HAVE BEEN SIMULTANEOUS AND INTERMITTENT. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN INTO THE DEALER AND THE DEALER INDICATED THAT A OB COMPUTER SOFTWARE UPGRADE WAS REQUIRED AND UPLOADED. I WAS CHARGED A DIAGNOSIS FEE FOR THIS. THE UPLOAD APPEARS TO HAVE CURED THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT BUT THE BATTERY LIGHT HAS RETURNED.

DRIVING ON HIGHWAY CAR IN MOTION WHEN PASSENGER HEADREST DEPLOYED HITTING PASSENGERS HEAD PUSHING THEM INTO DASHBOARD. TAKEN TO ADDYS DODGE AND WAS TOLD IT WAS BROKE AND NEEDED A NEW HEADREST FOR $790.00 THAT HEADREST WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY AND ASKED FOR $ 98.00 FOR THERE INSPECTION

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN. WHILE THE CONTACT'S WIFE ATTEMPTED TO LOAD THE VEHICLE, HER RIGHT ELBOW HIT THE HEADREST. SUDDENLY, THE HEADREST POPPED OUT WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADREST POPPED OUT ON ONE OTHER OCCASION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CERRITOS DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM (18803 STUDEBAKER RD, CERRITOS, CA 90703 (562) 402-5335), BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE REPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

I DO NOT HAVE A TAKATA BUT MY VEHICLE HAS THE TAKATA RECALL ISSUE PLUS I ONLY HAD MY VEHICLE FOR ALMOST 2YRS BUT I HAVE 5 KIDS AND IT WORRIES ME TO DRIVE WITH THAT LIGHT ON AND SOME WEIRD NOISE THAT JUST STARTED IN MY DRIVER BACK TIRE BUT THIS AIRBAG LIGHT THATS ON WORRIES ME IM SCARED TO DRIVE AND MY KIDS HAVE TO GET BACK AND FOURTH TO SCHOOL, WHAT AM I SUPPOSE TO DO. OH MY CAR HAS NOT BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENT

TIPM NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT MY COST EVEN THOUGH THIS IS BEEN A PROBLEM IN OTHER DODGE VEHICLES. THE FUEL PUMP RELAY WAS NOT WORKING THE HORN STARTED GOING OFF FOR NO REASON AND THERE WERE STARTING ISSUES, WITH CAR EVENTUALLY STALLING WHILE MOVING. IT WAS OVER $1200 TO FIX. THEN, SIX MONTHS LATER THE CAR IS STILL NOT STARTING ACCURATELY AND WAS FIXED AT MY COST. A GROUND WIRE WAS PUT IN FROM THE BATTERY TO THE TRANSMISSION. I WASTOLD THIS WAS NOT PART OF THE TIPM ISSUE BUT THEY DID NOT KNOW WHAT WAS CAUSING IT. DODGES PROBLEM-SOLVING DATABASE SHOWED THAT THIS PROBLEM WAS FIXED IN OTHER DODGES WITH GROUND WIRE. THIS REPAIR WAS AT MY COST. LASTLY, THE VALVES AND GASKETS AS PART OF THE POWERTRAIN SYSTEM HAVE BEEN REPLACED TWICE IN LESS THAN TWO YEARS. THEY ARE UNDER WARRANTY AND THE REPAIR WAS NO COST TO ME, BUT THEY'VE HAD TO BE REPLACED TWICE.

THEN I DROVE TO AN O'REILLEY AUTO PARTS STORE. THEY CHECKED MY BATTERY, IT WAS OK, EXCEPT THAT IT WAS AT ABOUT 88%. THEY THEN CHECKED THE ALTERNATOR AND IT WAS NOT CHARGING THE BATTERY. THE TECHNICIAN SAID THAT I COULD DRIVE HOME TO HARLAN, IOWA, A 100 MILE TRIP IF THE BATTERY WERE CHARGED UP FULLY.

ON 7/31/2016 MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN A DRIVEWAY. I ENTERED THE VEHICLE, STARTED THE ENGINE AND THE DRIVER SIDE ACTIVE HEADREST DEPLOYED. ATTEMPTS TO RESET HEADREST PER THE OPERATORS MANUAL FAILED. ON 8/4/2016 I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP WHO INFORMED ME THAT THEY COULD NOT RESET HEADREST AND IT HAD TO BE REPLACED (COST APPROX $900). I CONTACTED DODGE CUSTOMER SERVICE WHO HAS ASSIGNED AN INVESTIGATOR TO LOOK INTO THE ISSUE. CASE # 29846962 AS OF THIS DATE, 8/5, THE REPLACEMENT HEADREST IS ON ORDER AND I AM WAITING TO BE CONTACTED BY THE INVESTIGATOR TO LOOK AT THE VEHICLE.

LEFT YEAR BRAKE CALIPER SEIZED, CAUSING THE WHEEL TO OVERHEAT. OCCURRED AT 34,000 MILES. REPAIR COSTS WERE $600. WITHIN TWO WEEKS IT HAPPENED AGAIN, SAME WHEEL. NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS.

AIR BAG LIGHT GOES ON AND OFF LIKE THER IS SOMEONE IN PASSENGER SEAT WHEN EMPTY,CAR TURNS AIR BAG ON AND OFF BY WEIGHT.DOESNT WORK PROPERLY. IN 2011 RECALL ON SAME VEHICLE FOR BAD HAVAC CAUSING LEAK. THIS STOPS HEATING SYSTOM FROM WORKING PROPERLY AND AIR BAG NOT TO WORK . MY 2013 DOING SAME BUT KNOW RECALL.DOES ALL THE TIME.

THE TRAILER LIGHTING MODULE FAILED TWICE. THERE HAVE ALSO BEEN INTERMITTENT LIGHTS AND ALARMS THAT ACTIVATE IN THE DASH PANEL. I'VE BEEN TOLD THAT THE TOTAL INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM) CAUSES THESE ACTIONS, INCLUDING THE FAILURE OF THE TOWING LIGHT MODULE. THE LIGHTING FAILED HAS CAUSED ME TO HAVE TO TOW A TRAILER WITH DEFECTIVE LIGHTS UNTIL I COULD REACH A SAFE PLACE TO DROP THE TRAILER.

I CALLED MY DEALER (ZIEGLER IN KALAMAZOO) WHEN I GOT THE RECALL ABOUT THE VENT WINDOW SWITCH. THEY SAID THEY WOULD CONTACT ME WHEN THEY HAD THE PART. I HAVE NOT HEARD BACK FROM THEM YET. I TRIED CALLING THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND GOT NO ANSWER - NOT EVEN VOICE MAIL) ON MAY 6.

OUR 2013 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN ALTERNATOR AND PCS FAILED AT 68000 MILES. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING WITH MY WIFE AND 4 CHILDREN IN THE CAR. MULTIPLE DASHBOARD LIGHTS CAME ON AND THE THE VEHICLE ENGINE WAS RACING BUT THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT ENGAGE. THE ONLY REASON THERE WAS NOT A CRASH WAS THAT THEY WERE TRAVELING DOWNHILL AND DID NOT NEED TO ACCELERATE AS THE VEHICLE WAS NOT ABLE TO. LUCKILY THEY WERE ABLE TO PULL THE CAR OVER WITHOUT INCIDENT. DODGE HAS RECALLED THIS ALTERNATOR IN OVER 900,000 VEHICLES ON 4 OTHER MODELS WITH THE 3.6 LITER ENGINE BUT HAS NOT IN THE GRAND CARAVAN FOR SOME REASON. I CONTACTED DODGE AND THEY WERE UNWILLING TO HELP IN ANY WAY TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE TO MAKE IT OPERABLE AND SAFE AGAIN. THIS REPAIR WAS QUOTED FORM MY LOCAL DODGE DEALER TO COST OVER $750.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE JERKED VIOLENTLY AS IF THE TRANSMISSION WOULD DETACH FROM THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOUR TIMES FOR THE SAME FAILURE AND THE TECHNICIAN REPROGRAMMED THE COMPUTER; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 49,001.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR DRIVER SIDE SLIDING DOOR FAILED TO OPEN. THE FAILURE RECURRED CONTINUOUSLY.

THERE IS NOT ENOUGH ROOM, TOP TO BOTTOM, TO SAFELY ACCEPT A MEN'S US SIZE 11.5 SHOE. WITH MY HEEL PLANTED ON THE FLOOR, I AM UNABLE TO FREELY PIVOT MY FOOT FROM THE THE GAS PEDAL TO THE BRAKE AND BACK AGAIN. THE TOP OF MY SHOE GETS FIRMLY STUCK TRYING TO MOVE BETWEEN THE TWO PEDALS. IF NOT COMPLETELY STUCK, MY FOOT MOTION IS IMPEDED AND SLOWED DOWN IN MANY OTHER WAYS. ONLY, WITH A LOT OF THOUGHT AND ADJUSTMENT OF MY FOOT AND HEEL POSITION AM I ABLE TO OPERATE THE BRAKE AND ACCELERATOR AT ALL. THIS LOW FOOT CLEARANCE SIGNIFICANTLY LOWERS MY RESPONSE TIME WHEN I NEED TO HIT THE BRAKE IN AN EMERGENCY. IT REQUIRES A LOT OF EXTRA THOUGHT UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS AS WELL, TAKING ATTENTION AWAY FROM THE ROAD. THIS HAS NEVER BEEN AN ISSUE (OR EVEN A THOUGHT) IN MANY YEARS OF DRIVING SEVERAL OTHER MAKES AND MODELS OF VEHICLES. I OWN A 1999 GRAND CARAVAN THAT HAS PLENTY OF FOOT ROOM IN IT. NOBODY SHOULD HAVE TO THINK ABOUT HOW THEY NEED TO SPECIALLY POSITRON THEIR FOOT TO OPERATE THE BRAKE OR ACCELERATOR. FOR SAFE DRIVING, REACTION TIME IS EVERYTHING. DODGE HAS DESIGNED THIS VEHICLE WITH CRAMPED FOOT-ROOM THAT CAN DRASTICALLY REDUCE THE TIME IT TAKES TO ACTIVATE THE BRAKE AND COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT THAT A FREELY AVAILABLE BRAKE PEDAL MAY HAVE AVOIDED. I HAD THE IDENTICAL PROBLEMS TESTING A NEWER DODGE CHARGER AND A CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. I AM MAKING THE ASSUMPTION THAT THIS CRAMPED AND UNSAFE DESIGN IS A STANDARD THAT COVERS MANY CHRYSLER MAKES AND MODELS. THIS ISSUE AFFECT

VEHICLE HAS MISFIRE AND TICKING SOUND FROM ENGINE WITH CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON AND FLASHING. ALSO WHEN DRIVING VEHICLE WANTS TO STALL WHEN IDLING .. TOOK TO DEALER AND TOLD ME HEAD CYLINDER NEED REPLACED BUT NOT COVERED BY EXTENDED WARRANTY CHRYSLER ISSUED FOR EXACT SAME REASON FOR 2011-2013 MODELS. THIS IS NOT FAIR THAT NOT ALL 2013 GRAND CARAVANS ARE COVERED. THEY SHOULD ALL BE COVERED BY SAME WARRANTY.
