2012 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN Electrical System Problems

My van tipm went out..it would cut off going down the road the safety door locks was not working the fuel pump was running all the time with switch off

While driving, the vehicle will periodically shut down/lose all power. This appears to occur when a slight bump in the road occurs. The loss of power to the vehicle is obviously a significant safety issue. We have been able to restart it when switching to neutral and turning the key; however, this obviously isn't a safe solution while traveling down the highway with no power to the vehicle. This has occurred multiple times at varying speeds (30-70 mph) over the last few years - I am reporting it now as I was assuming/anticipating there would be a recall on this safety issue.

CAR STALLS UNEXPECTEDLY WITH NO WARNING OR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. INTERMITTENT OCCURRENCES. SOMETIMES INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON, SOMETIMES NOT. CAN USUALLY GET CAR RESTARTED RIGHT AWAY BUT NOT ALWAYS. HAS BEEN DOING THIS FOR AWHILE. NEVER KNOW WHEN IT WILL DO IT. HAS DONE IT AT ALL SPEEDS, WHILE PARKED AND WHILE IDLING. HAVE HAD BATTERY REPLACED AS WELL AS STARTER. SUSPECT WIN MODULE. SEE BELOW - APPROXIMATE DATE IS UNKNOWN. HAS BEEN DOING IT FOR SO LONG WE DON'T REMEMBER.

The contact owns a 2012 Dodge Grand Caravan. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked, unoccupied, and turned off at the residence, she noticed that sparks and flames were coming from the overhead console. The flames then spread to the front driver's and passenger's side seats. The contact did not sustain any injuries. The fire department arrived and extinguished the fire. The fire department filed a report, which determined that the fire was caused by an electrical wiring failure. The vehicle remained at the residence. The insurance company was not made aware of the fire. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 183,000.

Mileage: 183,000

While driving engine was cutting out, stalling, hard to restart. Found the reason was thr TIPM. Found there was a safety recall R09 / NHTSA 15V-115 fuel pump Relay, however this was for other Fiat Chrysler models and not the Dodge Grand Caravan, please help me understand why? The TIPM within this caravan is the same TIPM installed is other Fiat Chrysler models and clearly the same danger concerns. I don't believe I need to tell the NHTSA how scary it was to be driving 65 on a freeway when this occurred putting my life and others around me in danger of possibly losing control of a vehicle. Then learn this same TIPM was part of a large recall, but only on some models and not all. Makes absolutely no sense. I would ask that this prior recall be extended to all models with this TIPM installed as I can only imagine how many others have experienced this; God forbid and accidents were caused. Thank you for your time.

On my Grand Caravan the engine randomly dies when my headlights are on bright. I haven't been able to find the problem. I have read where others are having the same problem but not sure they have associated the problem to the high beam lights. Last year when the dealership supposedly did the T33 recall it stopped doing it for two months then started happening again. It only happens with my high beams. The dangers are that, unable to use my high beams, I may not see wildlife running out into the road on dark highways until it is too late. Also, if this happens in traffic, especially in turns or curves, there is temporary loss in propulsion, power steering, power brakes, etc. I believe this to be a widespread problem that most haven't associated with the headlights. When it happens all of the dash lights come on as if the ignition was just turned on. I guess one more danger is that a driver, unaware of what is happening, may try accelerating when the engine has died which could cause sudden acceleration when the engine power restores.

I bought the car 2 weeks ago with 105k miles on it. The car has died approximately 20 times in the last 2 weeks while I am driving it. It is so insanely dangerous, you will be going down a busy street and the car completely dies without warning. There is no dash lights on, no warning. The power steering goes. It's an accident waiting to happen, it’s unacceptable. After spending 2k at the mechanic and still the same problem. They have now told me I need the TIPM replaced at the dealership. Which also affects the lights, which are erratic, they come on or come off when they want, along with the horn. It’s also pushes the motors into limp mode so it runs really hard over 20 miles an hour even while idle. The car will also die while in idle/park or when you shift gears. The car is basically an all day event to start and if you get it to stay on, if you are able to get it, don’t touch the key or it will automatically the car off. The TIPM system will also stay on, even while car is off causing your battery to drain.

Van shuts off completely when driving., all lights go off… rolling the car when possible I shift to neutral then I start the ignition and works fine. But lately is more often. My wife picks grand kids from school ., she is afraid an accident may happen. I see this problem on the internet specially at the caravan club. Why this problem is not tackled? Thanks. Also yesterday it shuts down at idle.

While driving on freeway or highway, electrical system fails, causing engine shutdown, and power steering and braking system fails to respond without excessive effort and delayed response. ALSO have had intermittent electrical failure while maneuvering vehicle at moderate to slow speeds or while steering around corners or turning into driveways. Touching or inadvertent bumping against ignition switch or rattling of keys on key ring can also cause electrical and dashboard electrical intermittent off/on/off in rapid succession. While driving in heavy traffic on freeway, almost wrecked car when electrical failure occurs during high speed travel and extreme effort to maneuver vehicle safely in heavy freeway traffic making effort to pull over safely a high-risk task. Tendency of driver to over-react or over-steer and under-steer and control car safely to side of road during heavy traffic, WITH NO FUNCTIONING SIGNAL LIGHTS, makes lane changing at high risk of major accident. According to similar reports found on Internet for same model year vehicle, others have reported similar cases of defective ignition switch in steering column, and is a safety hazard and should be recalled and replaced, and should include 2012 year models. While I was able to barely avoid an accident, only means that I was an exception to the rule.

The van shut down from the sudden. No steering or power. Did it twice on a parking lot and big street

The van has COMPLETELY lost power on multiple occasions WHILE driving. Everything shuts down: engine, dash, everything. No error codes, so mechanic can’t pinpoint. Very dangerous. Someone is going to die.

The fuel relay switch is faulty and causing fuel pump to stay on draining the battery. This is a known problem and has been recalled on several other models. It causes my vehicle to continue to lose power due to electrical surge.

The car SHUTS OFF while DRIVING NO MATTER THE SPEED!!! The vehicle also pops out of gear when it shuts off. You have to use the emergency release button to change the gear to put it in park to try to start it again, which usually takes a little while to get it started. The safety hazard could be FATAL to the driver and whomever may rear-end the vehicle due it shutting off and loosing power steering and the brakes. This vehicle is currently at the dealership for the second time. They say that they cannot find the problem. I looked online for fixes and found HUNDREDS of complaints of the same issue for this same vehicle with no fix due to everyone being told they cannot find the problem. This could be FATAL!

TPIM is going on it causing fault codes that won't clear causing to fail inspection. Chrysler Dodge has known about defective TPIM for years and chose not to do anything about it.

Rear door won't engage or open seems to be electrical, then once figured out. The vehicle wldnt run, had a new battery put in, then it acted like the fuel pump, but the fuel pump kicks in the alternator was replaced as the fuel pump a year ago. Then we bypassed the regulator and now thr is nothing in the entire van works intact when u try put the charger on it, which the battery indicator says fully charged the whole fuel box vibrates and shakes. But thr is absolutely no power inside the vehicle thr is definitely without a doughty something wrong with the vehicles entire fusebox. This is very odd and not normal The entire brain of this vehicle is a problem. I have had a problem with this lemon since I bought it I have had it sitting more then driving spent more money on it then I. Able to use it something is definitely wrong with this vehicle.

The contact owns a 2012 Dodge Grand Caravan. The contact stated while attempting to start the vehicle, the vehicle would not start. The contact stated that after several attempts, the vehicle started. While driving 45 MPH, the vehicle lost motive power and stalled without warning. The contact stated that there was a delay while restarting the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and the computer was replaced; however, the failure reoccurred. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who stated that the ignition node module needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and stated that there was no recall for the failure. The failure mileage was 73,000. The consumer stated the vehicle only started half the time or a delayed response. The ignition module was replaced on 01/13/23.

Mileage: 73,000

I would like the fuel pump relay recalled because it is unsafe and the Jeep Cherokee and Charger have the exact same TIPM with the same exact fuel pump relay and they both have recalls on the the exact same part.

I guess started with noticing oil being used at a faster pace then normal then a decent tick began along with AbS light which prevented cruise control from working. At this point We seemed Professional advice from a licensed Mechanic who then preformed a small job of dropping transmission pan to clean metal shavings out! And replacing tires and brake pads assured us routers were fine. He was concerned with the fact that the abs light continued to be on so we the paid to get wiring for abs redone (not sure what was called). After this the cruise control worked abs went off but we noticed the brake pads went quick! Then the insane knock out of nowhere began loud metal on metal had harmonic balancer pulley replaced didn’t do it any good. The. Was told cracked fly wheel was most likely the problem I continued to drive for about a month when the brake fluid light came on. I added fluid but every 3-4 days it came on again and of course brake pads again but this time the extremely loud knock went away and all was left was a quiet tick. That lasted couple months the out of no where wiring started shorting in dash and radio display. This lead to battery issues then out of no where motor is stuck in first gear and will not shift up but will shift between drive neutral and reverse. Idles extremely rough when in drive lights do not dim I had alternator checked. Now my family of six is with out a vehicle thank you for hearing my concerns

2017 I purchased my car. I had several problems with the key lock and car starting. Immediately tried to return the car but dealer wouldn’t allow it. I have now found out there were 2 recalls in 2017 I was not aware of this until now. Even though dodge has stated to me they were fixed as a consumer if my car was presenting issues so early on after these recalls I should have had a grace period to give the vehicle back if other issues were presented. Currently car is smoking on the drivers side with a heavy burning smell. Car is over heating as well as the car would not stop while I was driving it on8/23/22 in a mall. Car was shutting off a lot. I was under warantiy and took it to AAmco and found out there were transmission issues. My warranty company at the time let my car sitting at AAmco despite the major issue and refused to fix it as well as let my warranty expire. Now I am scared to drive this car concerned the vehicle won’t stop.

MY VAN CRANKS, BUT WON'T START, IT HAPPENS ON AND OFF... IT SEEMS TO BE THE FUEL PUMP RELAY EVERYONE'S TALKING ABOUT

I am experiencing an issue with the Totally Integrated Power Module TIPM. That can not be repaired by a local auto mechanic professional service. This appears to be a chronic issue with this vehicle make and model. In the 2011 this issue has been deemed a recall, yet the 2012, despite having the same engine, has not been deemed a recall. This needs to be addressed. Furthermore, the Dodge Caravan is one that is most frequently converted for wheelchair drivers and passengers. This is my case as well. I would like to commend Dodge for manufacturing vehicles that can be modified, and I would also like to implore that they be well supported in providing the safest most mechanically sound vehicle possible which also includes notifying and elevating problems to RECALL status so that wheelchair users can seek needed repairs before being stranded on the side of the road. There are literally no wheelchair accessible tow trucks, at least not in my area. Dodge had taken on a needed task and I am asking that they be supported to take it to the next level with recalling the 2012 TIPM and any other chronic issues on their vehicles especially for people with mobility differences. Thank you [XXX] INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

I was driving on a side street fortunately instead of the interstate each of the times that the car died! All of the dash lights came on and it just stopped running. I called for service and the tow driver checked the battery and it was fine, but but would not start or jump. Had it towed to the mechanic. A new battery was put on and it ran for a couple of days then died again. It would not jump so towed back to mechanic. Mechanic said they charged the battery, got it started said they ran diagnostics finding no issues. the next day it died again and would not jump. It is back at the mechanic's with them trying to figure this out. In my own research, I found this site and the repeated problems just like this. If I had been on the interstate, any kind of busy traffic it could have been tragic! I don't know why this persistent Dodge problem has not been recalled and fixed! I'm concerned that when we get the part replaced it will have the same problem. I don't want anyone to have a dangerous car. I'm stuck with this vehicle that is not safe even when fixed or don't fix it and trash it. Either way I have to buy another car. The sad thing is that until this repeated problem, I loved the car.

My Dodge Grand caravan is having ignition issues and will randomly turn off while driving or just parked/sitting.

The TIPM has a built in fuel relay switch which fails sometimes won't allow vehicle to start other times it and stall while driving twice in one trip my vehicle stalled on the highway loss of all power and engine completely shuts off with no power steering or brake assist very scary and wreckless was very fortunate to have avoid multiple accidents the is already a recall associated with this issue on the Dodge Durango and Jeep Cherokee but for some reason the Doge Grand Caravan was left off and it posses a huge safety risk for the people and families that are driving them!

While driving, van completely shut down. This has happened twice now. No power brakes no power steering. Unable to restart. coasted to side of the road in one case and to a parking lot on another instance. It is currently at the dealer for repair for the second time. Battery replaced the first time. While engine would not start all accessories worked. Nothing found wrong. This time they picked up dead van. couldn't run diagnostics they said. Suspect win module, ($900 repair) not sure though. It has resurrected itself and now runs but once again they find nothing wrong. They said win module is a guess. Going to drive it with a computer on to see if they can find anything. 900 is a lot for a guess. have seen several complaints on line for this issue and similar complaints recalled on other dodges.

My Dodge Grand caravan is having ignition issues and will randomly die while driving or just sitting. It has happened on the highway going 70mph. It is very dangerous as I lose all power until I would flip the ignition off and then back on. I have looked and found the recall on other vans but it is not listed under my VIN. What do I do to get this fixed before I am in am accident.

The contact owns a 2012 Dodge Grand Caravan. The contact stated that she turned off the vehicle and left the ignition key in the ignition switch; however, the radio light and unknown instrument panel lights remained illuminated. The dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 100,000.

Mileage: 100,000

Engine shuts off while driving down expressway and randomly just shuts off. Very dangerous and someone is going to get killed. Dodge/Chrysler needs to do sometime about this.

Vehicle just shutting off randomly while driving. No light came on , engine just stopped. Total safety issue when in busy traffic. Other years of same models have been recalled, but not 2012 dodge caravan. The problem was wireless control module that was very costly, but it could have been more costly if an accident occurred. Please look into this problem. From what I have seen on line, this has been a problem for many dodge customers.

The TIPM unit is causing issues for my wife and kids there is a recall on other models with the same part that is causing issues why wouldn’t it be a safety issue for this model as well if it can cause the same safety concern

Vehicle randomly shuts off while driving. No known cause or correlation between incidents. All electrical and power steering good off, without any warning. Happens multiple times daily

While driving 55 MPH on the highway all the lights on the dashboard began flashing and the vehicle lost ALL power - No power steering, no brakes, no engine, nothing. Luckily I was going uphill in the mountains without any traffic and was able to eventually stop. Had there been a vehicle behind me, the results could have been fatal. The vehicle was towed to a nearby trusted shop. They are saying it needs a whole new engine. The problem is, even with a replacement engine, this could happen again with a new/rebuilt Chrysler/Dodge engine. Keep reading please. In researching, I found that this is a known issue with this and other Chrysler/Dodge models. There was a previous Class Action Suit in California settled regarding this issue that required all plaintiffs to file before December 2018. Sadly, I did not purchase the vehicle until 2019 and this issue did not occur until 2021. I'm hoping there is some way to make Chrysler/Dodge accept responsibility for this through a recall or another class action suit as I have read many complaints online regarding this issue. How many people have to die before somebody does something about this?

The contact owns a 2012 Dodge Grand Caravan. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle, several times, air bag, ABS, and battery warning lights illuminated before the vehicle stalled. After restarting the vehicle, the vehicle operated normally for a while before the failure recurred. This keeps recurring in spite of changing alternator and battery twice in two months. Mechanics including an auto-electric technician from Northern Virginia were not able to pinpoint the exact cause. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The local dealer was notified of the failure. The manufacturer was not yet contacted. The failure mileage started at 143,000.

Mileage: 143,000

It refuses to start. Light comes on the dash for the throttle body and when fuses were tested it was found that the TIPMs power cuts out. Which led to a research and found online that a recall on that exact issue/part was for certain 2011-2012 models. I called my local dodge dealership and was told that my van didn't fall under that recall because it was VIN specific. If my 2012 Dodge grand caravan is having those issues, why is it not under the recall. This car is my main transportation for myself and my family. I have 5 school aged kids that rely on this vehicle for transportation everyday. I NEED this to be taken care of as soon as possible, please.

The car shutoff on me while I was driving home. It shut off on the bridge while I was driving home and wouldn't start for 30minutes. It finally started up and I made it home but the next morning it wouldn't start up at all. I got it jumped and took it to midas and they checked everything and said it is a computer issue. I called dodge d they told me $180 just to look at it. I see all these comments about the same issue and I don't understand why there is not a recall for this problem!!!

I was driving and the vehicle stalled out. Could have been hit if someone was right behind me. At first the car would keep turning over trying to start and it would after awhile, then lead to going out to the car and the battery completely drained. I had to replace a whole battery and alternator and it is still draining the battery (fuel pump rely). I don't see why there hasn't been a recall to fix this with as many complaints as there are online.

My wife and I have a 2012 Dodge Grand Caravan, my wife drives the car on a daily basis school runs, etc with our 4 kids. While driving the kids to school and stopped at a red light the vehicle suddenly with no warning lost all power and shutdown. My wife said she was able to restart it again right away, then just before she got home the car suddenly and again no warning shut down everything no power whatsoever she was unable to remove the key from the ignition. After attaching a battery pack we were able to get it restarted and drive home Thankfully no one was behind her at the time as it would most definetly have resulted in a crash. Since then this has occured several more times sometimes it will be a day or couple days but it will always just die with no warning, My wife refuses to drive the car now as both she and I are afraid for the kids and her safety. I have checked and fixed various items including a new battery,alternator and ASD relay all of which did not fix the issue. I see dodge has issued recalls for the ignition switch on previous years. I believe Dodge needs to look at the 2012 and fix whatever this issue is as I have saw numerous people experiencing the same issue. I am a father supporting my wife and 4 kids and cannot afford a bottomless pit of maybe its this/that. Dodge needs to step up it could be the difference of saving someones life.

Bought the van and with in 2 Days just driving an it cuts off, No warning Nothing, Can click back on at any time...Engine reeves up sounds like it's gonna blow up.. You have to either put it in Neutral or pull off the road and turn it off and it will crank right back up... It does this at any given time.. This is VERY DANGEROUS WHEN YOUR DRIVING AT HIGH RATES OR LOW RATES OF SPEED. IT'S GONNA CUSS A BAD WRECK ONE DAY..

WHEN TURNING THE KEY OVER TO START THE VEHICLE IT WILL KEEP TURNING OVER BUT NOT CRANK AND IT WILL NOT STOP TURNING OVER UNTIL YOU SWITCH THE KEY IN OFF POSITION. ALSO, AT TIMES THE VAN WILL STALL WHILE RUNING AND SHUT OFF. SO FAR IN PARKED POSITION BUT I AM AFRAID IT COULD HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING. THE FUEL PUMP WILL KEEP RUNING AFTER THE IGNITION HAS BEEN SHUT OFF AND THE KEY TAKEN OUT. THIS RUNS THE BATTERY DEAD AND WILL LEAVE YOU SITTING.

MY VAN CUT OFF IN THE DRIVEWAY, THANKFULLY I WAS PARKED AND WILL NOT TURN OVER OR CRANK BACK UP. WE HAD JUST GOTTEN HOME,, WE COULD HAVE BEEN ON THE INTERSTATE!!! THERE IS A RED LIGHT BLINKING LIGHT UNDER THE NEUTRAL. I AM READING HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME PROBLEM AND THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED. MY VAN IS A HANDICAP ACCESSIBLE VAN FOR MY DAUGHTER AND THANKFULLY WE WERE NOT DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY WHEN THIS HAPPENED. WE HAD JUST GOTTEN HOME FROM CELEBRATING HER BIRTHDAY AND HAD HER, MY 82 YEAR OLD GRANNY, MY WIFE AND MYSELF. WE COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. THIS IS DANGEROUS. I HAD IT LOOKED AT AND IT IS GIVING A CODE U1197 THAT'S A SECURITY CODE. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED IMMEDIATELY!!! THERE ARE TOO MANY COMPLAINTS

SEAT BELT WARNING CHIME IS PERIODICAL ACTIVATED WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND SEAT BUCKLE IS ENGAGED.

WHILE DRIVING MY VAN, I ATTEMPTED TO TURN LEFT ON A CITY STREET, WHEN EVERYTHING SHUT DOWN ON ME. ALL OF MY DASHBOARD LIT UP LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE. I HAD NO STEERING, NO BRAKES, IT WAS FRIGHTENING! I DID HAVE HEADLIGHTS, FLASHERS, I COULDN'T ACCESS THE SIDE DOORS TO GE MY CANE OUT. MY BACK GATE WOULDN'T OPEN EITHER SO I COULD GET MY ROLLERATOR AND WALK TO THE BUSINESS I WAS ATTEMPTING TO GET TO. I HAD TO HAVE MY VAN TOWED AND WAS TOLD IT'S MY ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE. I WOULD LIKE TO BRING MY AWARENESS TO THIS ISSUE, FOR IF I WAS ON 95, MY MAIN HIGHWAY AND THIS HAPPENED, I WOULD BE DEAD ALONG WITH MY SON. ATTACHED IS THE DASHBOARD, BUT THE CENTER BOTTOM RED LIGHT WAS FLASHING ON AND OFF. I'M TOLD IT'S MY SECURITY SYSTEM LIGHT

OUR DODGE GRAND CARAVAN WAS STATIONARY AND EXPERIENCED INTERMITTENT STARTING PROBLEMS OVER A PERIOD OF MONTHS AND SOMETIMES WHEN IT DID START, IT WOULD STALL SHORTLY AFTER STARTING WHILE IN MOTION. FINALLY, IT WOULD NOT START AFTER REPEATED ATTEMPTS, WAITING ARE TRYING AGAIN. WE HAD IT TOWED TO OUR MECHANIC WHO TESTED IT AND FOUND THAT IT WAS THE FUEL PUMP RELAY. HE SAID IT WAS COMMON TO MAY DODGE AND JEEP MODELS. THEY ALL HAVE THE SAME CIRCUIT BOARD. HE RECOMMENDED TAKING IT TO A DEALER FOR REPAIRS EVEN THOUGH IT HAD NOT YET BEEN RECALLED. THE DEALER CONFIRMED THAT THEY HAD THE PARTS FOR THE FIX AND FIXED THE FUEL PUMP RELAY PROBLEM. THE REPAIR HAS A 2 YEAR WARRANTY. AN EMPLOYEE OF DEALER EXPRESSED THAT IT MAY BE 3 MONTHS FROM THE OCTOBER 8, 2020 REPAIR, BUT EVENTUALLY CHRYSLER WOULD ISSUE A RECALL SINCE SO MANY MODELS WITH THIS PART HAVE BEEN RECALLED. WE WERE ADVISED TO KEEP THE RECEIPT FOR LATER REIMBURSEMENT. IT IS NOW MARCH 14, 2021 AND NO RECALL HAS BEEN MADE FOR OUR VEHICLE. PLEASE TRY TO EXPEDITE THIS RECALL. THE NHTSA PROBABLY IS NOT GETTING MANY COMPLAINTS BECAUSE EVERYONE WITH THE PROBLEM EXPECTS IT TO BE HANDLED SOON. THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP.

BOUGHT THIS 2012 DODGE CARAVAN 1 MONTH AGO. LAST WEEK IT STALLED TWICE MID DRIVING, ONCE WHILE SLOWING DOWN NEARING A STOP LIGHT AND ONCE WHILE DRIVING HIGHWAY SPEEDS. LUCKY I WAS ABLE TO FIND A LARGE ENOUGH SHOULDER TO PULL OVER ON AND NOT CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. LOOKS LIKE THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE, WONDERING WHAT WE CAN DO TO FIX IT/SHOULD THIS BE RECALLED BEFORE LIVES ARE PUT AT RISK? NOT MUCH CONFIDENCE IN OUR NEW VEHICLE.

VAN HAS FAILED TO TURN ON MULTIPLE TIMES, PARK TURN OFF VEHICLE AND IN AS LITTLE AS 10 MINUTES LATER IT WOULD NOT START. I REPLACED ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY APPARENTLY AFTER GOING TO MULTIPLE MECHANICS THAT DIDN'T FIND THE PROBLEM WITH DIAGNOSTICS I FOUND OUT IT WAS NEITHER IT WAS A FAULTY TIPM. 6-8 MONTHS LATER STARTED HAVING ISSUES WITH THE CAR STALLING OUT AND HAVING AN ISSUE TURNING BACK ON. I HAVE STALLED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS ON THE FREEWAY I HAVE CONTACTED DODGE AND THE RECALL IS NOT FOR MY YEAR OF VEHICLE. PARTS FOR THIS ARE EXPENSIVE ALONG WITH LABOR. DODGE NEEDS TO RECALL THIS ISSUE BECAUSE THE LAST TIME THIS HAPPENED TO ME I WAS DRIVING 60 MPH ON THE FREEWAY CAR BEHIND ME WAS CLOSE AND MY VAN STALLED COULD OF GOT HURT OR KILLED AND SO COULD THE OTHER DRIVER. BRAKES NEED TO BE CHANGED OFTEN AS WELL MORE THAN I'VE EVER HAD TO CHANGE THEM FOR ANY OTHER VEHICLE.

Mileage: 135,000

VAN WON'T START. NO NOISE AT ALL WHEN I TURN THE KEY. THE SYMPTOM IS JUST LIKE TRYING TO START A CAR WITH AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WHILE THE CAR IS IN DRIVE, OR THERE'S NO SOUND AT ALL (THE VAN HAS ALWAYS BEEN Q ININ PARK). EVERYTHING ELSE POWERS UP, RADIO, WIPERS, LIGHTS ETC. THE BATTERY IS NEW AND THE ALTERNATOR IS GOOD. DEALERSHIP INSTALLED A NEW TIPM AND THE CAR STARTED FOR 1 WEEK AND DIED AGAIN. I'LL NEVER BUY AN AMERICAN MADE VEHICLE AGAIN. OWNED THE VAN FOR 1 MONTH AND PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED 5 OR 6 TIMES PREVIOUS TO THE LAST TWO TIMES WHEN THE VAN WOULDN'T START AT ALL.

I HAVE A 2012 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN THE SLIDING DOOR HAS BEEN MAKING A BUZZING SOUND EVERY TIME YOU UNLOCK AND LOCK THE DOORS. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE 2016 AND THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME IT WOULD BE $500 TO FIX IT. I AM NOW HAVING ISSUES WITH TRUNK OPENING AND CLOSING ON IT'S OWN; EVEN WHEN IT IS LOCKED. NOT SAFE AT ALL AND ALREADY GOT STORMED INSIDE OF MY VAN; CAUSE I DIDN'T REALIZE IT WAS OPENED. THEY TOLD ME I WOULD HAVE TO PAY THE FEE TO GET IT LOOKED AT AND THEN PAY FOR THE REPAIRS. I HAD A NEW TRANSMISSION PUT IN AT 74,330 MILES AFTER THEY TOLD ME WHEN I LEFT THE FIRST TIME; THAT IT WAS A COMPUTER RESET THAT NEEDED DONE. THEN, THEY HAD MY VAN FOR 2 WEEKS TRYING TO GET THE TRANSMISSION BUILT. AND MY TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING AGAIN. AT 139,466 MILES I HAD ALL OF MY TRANSMISSIONS LINES LEAKING AND HAD REPLACE ALL OF THEM FOR ANOTHER $500; CAUSE THERE WAS NO WARRANTY FROM THEM DOING MY SECOND TRANSMISSION. MY CD PLAYER EATS MY CD'S NOW AND MY AC QUIT WORKING. ALL IN ALL I DO LOVE MY VAN, BUT I AM GETTING VERY ANGRY AT ALL THE ISSUES; THAT SHOULD COVERED UNDER A RECALL AND THEY ARE NOT COVERED. IF ANYONE COULD PLEASE GIVE ME SOME IN SITE ON THESE ISSUES; I WOULD APPRECIATE IT. I AM NOT IN THE POSITION TO PURCHASE ANOTHER CAR AT THIS TIME WITH JOBS NOT VERY SECURE. I AM NOT EVEN ABLE TO TAKE MY VAN MANY PLACES; CAUSE I NEVER KNOW WHEN THE TRUCK WILL OPEN ON ITS OWN AND THEN SOMEONE CAN JUST STEAL MY VAN. I LISTED THE LAST DAY OF ALL OF MY ISSUES BELOW, BUT THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR YEARS AND STILL NOT RESOLVED.

THIS HAS BEEN RECALLED IN BOTH DODGE DURANGO AND THE JEEP. MANY DODGE CARAVANS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. *REFUSAL TO RECALL DUE TO UNDOCUMENTED COMPLAINTS AND REQUESTS IS A FAILURE TO PUBLIC SAFETY. A QUICK INTERNET SEARCH OF ISSUES REGARDING THE TPIM IM DODGE GRAND CARAVANS IS PROOF ENOUGH TO SHOW THAT THE FAULT LIES AS SIGNIFICANTLY WITH THESE VEHICLES AS THE DURANGOS AND JEEPS. *** A NEW INVESTIGATION SHOULD BE CONDUCTED. I HAVE SUSTAINED INJURIES IN MY NECK AND SHOULDERS AS A DISABLED PERSON BY HAVING TO RAISE AND DROP MY HOOD TO DISCONNECT MY BATTERY TERMINAL EVERYWHERE THE VEHICLE SITS ON EVERY OCCASSION POSSIBLE FOR 6 YEARS TO AVOID INTERMITTENT BATTERY DRAIN AND BEING STRANDED WITH MY TWO YOUNG CHILDREN. *IT IS A GROSS DISSERVICE TO CONSUMERS AND PUBLIC SAFETY THAT THIS MODEL HAS YET TO BE INCLUDED IN THE TPIM RECALL.

I HAD TO HAVE SOME FUSES REPLACED AND THEN REPLACED THE BATTERY. I WAS DRIVING IT FIVE DAYS LATER AND IT DID THE SAME THING. LUCKILY I WAS IN MY DRIVEWAY THIS TIME. I CHECKED THE FUSES AND AND EVERYTHING LOOKED GOOD. I WAS ABLE TO START IT BACK UP AND GET IT HOME. BOTH TIMES THIS HAS HAPPENED I HAVE HAD MY 3 KIDS AND GIRLFRIEND IN THE VEHICLE. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED. I HAVE READ ONLINE THAT MULTIPLE PERSONS ARE HAVING THE SAME OR SIMILAR ISSUES. BEST I CAN GATHER IS IT IS A IGNITION SWITCH ISSUE.

OVER THE LAST 6 WEEKS, ON OCCASION WHEN ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE- IT WILL CRANK WITHOUT TURNING OVER AND RUNNING. THIS REQUIRES MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS BEFORE THE VEHICLE WOULD RUN. IT HAS BECOME A MORE FREQUENT EVENT TO INCLUDE BRIEFLY RUNNING THEN SHUTTING DOWN. WTHIN THE LAST WEEK, THE BATTERY HAS DRAINED WITHOUT CASUE- REQUIREING CHARGING. AS OF TODAY, THE FAILURE TO START ISSUE PERSISTS REQUIREING MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS. THIS HAPPENS ON A COLD START AS WELL AS WHEN THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN RUNNING/IS WARMED UP. DDIAGNOSTICS LEAD TO A FAILURE OF THE FUEL PUMP RELAY IN THE TIPM. THIS IS A WELL DOCUMENTED ISSUE FOR THIS ENGINE/TIPM HOWEVER THE CARAVAN HAS NOT BEEN INCLUDED IN THE RECALL AS THE DRUANGO AND JEEP VEHICLES HAVE BEEN. THE FAILURE OF THIS TIPM HAS BEEN DOCUMENTED TO INCLUDE SUDDEN ENGINE SHUTDOWN WHILE IN OPERATION REPRESENTING A SIGNIFICANT DANGER TO THE PUBLIC. BASED ON REVIEWS OF OTHER COMPLAINTS, AN ORDINARY REASONABLE PRUDENT PERSON WOULD BELIEVE THAT THIS TIPM FAILURE IS A IMINENT THREAT TO SAFETY. THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO EXPAND THE RECALL AND REPAIR TO ALL VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH THE SUSPECT TIPM. CURRENTLY, A NON RECALLED VEHICLE WOULD HAVE THE TIPM MODULE REPLCED AT A SIGNIFICANT COST TO THE OWNER OR, A NON DEALERSHIP INSTALLED "RECALL" REPAIR (NEW RELAY) INSTALLED THAT WOULD NEGATE ANY FURTHER/FUTURE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE MANUFACTURER. AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTERS SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE THE OPTION OF PAYING FOR THE "RECALL" REPAIR WHEN SERVICING A VEHICLE NOT ON THE RECALL LIST. KNOWING THIS TIPM FAILURES POTENTIAL, I WOULD SUGGEST THAT, REGARDLESS OF ANY CLASS ACTIN SETTLEMENT- THE MANUFACTURER BE REQUIRED TO MITIGATE THIS ISSUE AT THE LEAST POSSIBLE EXPENSE TO THE VEHICLE OWNER.

I HAVE PREVIOUSLY REPORTED AN ISSUE WITH MY VEHICLE. THE PROBLEM HAS PERSISTED. THE ISSUE AT HAND IS THE VEHICLE LOSES POWER WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING. IT HAS HAPPENED AT LOW SPEEDS (25 MPH), MIDDLE SPEEDS (45 MPH) AND HIGH SPEEDS (65-70 MPH). ALL WARNING LIGHTS ARE DISABLED WHEN THE EVENTS OCCUR, SO THERE IS NO WAY TO WARN OTHER VEHICLES OF THE ISSUES AT HAND, INCREASING THE PROBABILITY OF A CRASH. I HAVE TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO CUTTER DODGE IN HONOLULU ONLY TO HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THE BATTERY CABLES WERE LOOSE ($150 SERVICE FEE) AND THAT THE PRIMER THAT IS INCLUDED WITH NEW BATTERIES TO APPLY ON THE BATTERY POSTS WAS SOMETHING THAT THEY'D NEVER SEEN BEFORE. THE PROBLEM HAS PERSISTED. I CURRENTLY HAVE MY VEHICLE AT A REPAIR SHOP WITH A BATTERY THAT WON'T HOLD A CHARGE BECAUSE THE INTERGRATED POWER MODULE IS MALFUNCTIONING. AS SEEN IS PREVIOUS COMPLAINTS, THIS ISSUE IS ONGOING WITH 2012 DODGE GRAND CARAVANS. THIS ISSUE PRESENTS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY HAZARD AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. I WILL REPEAT THAT THE DRIVER HAS NO WARNING THAT THIS ISSUE WILL OCCUR AND IT PUTS LIVES IN DANGER. MY VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 110,000 MILES AND IT BEGAN BEFORE REACHING 100,000 MILES.

I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE IGNITION, HOWEVER NOT FOR MY VIN, BUT OTHER VANS MY SAME YEAR AND MODEL. HOW COULD TEIS BE? NOW THEY SAY I NEED TO REPLACE THE IGNITION MODULAR AND THAT IS OVER $1300.00, THIS SHOULD FALL UNDER WARRANTY. AGAIN SAME YEAR, SAME MODEL, BUT BECAUSE MY VIN IS NOT PART OF IT NOTHING I CAN DO. AND TO TOP IT OFF THE PART IS FACTORY BACK ORDERED, COULD TAKE OVER A MONTH TO GET. PLEASE HELP!

THE VAN RESTARTS EVERY TIME STRAIGHT AWAY WITH NO PROBLEMS. THE OTHER DAY BEFORE WE TOOK THE VAN TO THE LOCAL DODGE DEALERSHIP FOR THEM TO INVESTIGATE THE ISSUE, THE CONSOLE STAYED WITH NO POWER BUT I WAS ABLE TO START THE ENGINE, THE FAN AND RADIO ALSO WORKED AT THIS POINT, AFTER DRIVING 5 TO 10 METERS THE DASH CONSOLE CAME UP WITH ALL THE GAUGES WORKING AGAIN. IT HAS NOW BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE NOW AND THEY ARE UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE OR KNOW OF A CAUSE. AFTER REVIEWING FORUMS IT SEEMS THAT OTHER VAN'S FROM VARIOUS YEARS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. SOMETIMES WHEN IT DOES IT, IT CATCHES ITSELF AT THE LAST SECOND AND THE ENGINE STAYS ON AND THE CONSOLE COMES BACK UP TO NORMAL THOUGH THIS IS MAYBE A 1 IN 5 OCCURRENCE.

WHENEVER I TURN ON THE HIGH BEAMS THE VEHICLE HAS ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. IT IS LIKE WHEN THE VEHICLE IS INITIALLY TURNED ON AND IT GOES THROUGH A ELECTRICAL DIAGNOSTICS TEST . THE INDICATOR LIGHTS/SOUNDS FLASH ON THE DASHBOARD. AS SOON AS I TURN THE HIGH BEAMS OFF AGAIN THE VEHICLE WORKS PROPERLY. THERE DOESN'T SEEM TO AFFECT THE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, BUT WHEN THIS HAPPENS I IMMEDIATELY TURN THE HIGH BEAMS OFF BECAUSE I DO NOT KNOW IF THE ELECTRICAL PROBLEM WILL AFFECT THE STEERING AND OR BRAKING. SO ANY TRUE IMPACT IS NOT KNOWN. IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR OVER A YEAR NOW. I JUST DON'T USE MY HIGH-BEAMS FOR FEAR OF HAVING AN ACCIDENT. THE ISSUE CAN BE REPLICATED (STILL HAPPENS TODAY).

BAD INGNITION MODULE. VAN TURNS RANDOMLY OFF BY IT SELF WHILE DRIVING. IF YOU PUSH ON THE FOB IN THE INGNITION IT WILL START TO RUN AGAIN. WHEN VAN TURNS OFF YOU LOSE CONTROL OF THE POWER STEERING AND BRAKES MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO COME TO A SAFE STOP. SAME ISSUES THAT DODGE RECALLED OTHER MODEL YEARS FOR BUT NOT THE GRAND CARAVAN. IT HAS OCCURED NUMEROUS TIMES TO US IN THIS VAN.

THE VAN CUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. EEVERYTIME, I TRIED TO START IT, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL SAID "NO FUSE." I HAD IT LOOKED AT BY A MECHANIC AND HE SAID THAT MY ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY WERE DEAD. AFTER THEY WERE REPLACED, THE CAR STARTED UP AND I DROVE IT TO WORK. ON THE WAY TO WORK, WHILE THE CAR WAS DRIVING, ALL OF THE LIGHTS IN THE CAR WENT OUT AND THE INSTRUMENT PANEL RESET ITSELF (DATE, TIME, AND TRIP COMPUTER) AFTER ABOUT 5 SECONDS. THIS REPEATED ITSELF EVERY 15 MINUTES OR SO, UNTIL THE CAR CUT OFF. I REFASTENED THE BATTERY CONNECTORS, GOT THE CAR A JUMP, AND IT STARTED TO RUN. I PARKED THE CAR. LATER, I GOT IN AND STARTED IT WITH NO PROBLEM. THE NEXT DAY, I WENT TO START THE CAR AND IT WOULDNT START. I GOT A JUMP AND IT STARTED UP AGAIN. DRIVING INTO WORK, THE CAR CUT OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE STREET. I HAD TO STEER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO GET TO SAFETY. THE WORST THING ABOUT IT ALL, IS THAT WHEN THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAILS, THE KEY GETS STUCK IN THE IGNITION, AND YOU CAN NOT SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL IF YOU NEED TO PUSH THE CAR OFF THE ROAD. I HAVE READ MULTIPLE REVIEWS ABOUT THIS CAR'S ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, BUT IT IS A DANGER TO EVERYONE ON THE ROAD FOR A CAR TO CONSISTENTLY HAVE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS, ESPECIALLY ONES THAT CAUSE IT TO CUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. THIS NEEDED TO BE ADDRESSED BEFORE ANYONE GETS HURT.

Mileage: 105,177

MORE THEN A DOZEN TIMES OUR VEHICLE HAS COMPLETELY SHUT OFF WHILE IN MOTION GOING STRAIGHT AT VARIOUS SPEEDS CAUSING LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND PUTTING US IN UNSAFE CONDITIONS. THE A/C WILL BLOW HOT AIR IN HALF THE VEHICLE AND THE RADIO HAS TURNED UP THE VOLUME TO FULL AND THE CONTROLS ARE INOPERATIVE TO TURN IT DOWN. I FEEL THE DEALER INTENTIONALLY DID NOT TELL US ABOUT THE KNOWN TIPM ISSUE AND TOLD US WE HAD TO REPLACE THE ALTERNATOR WHICH WE DID WITH NO HELP IN CORRECTING THE ISSUE. THIS HAS BEEN ONGOING FOR A FEW MONTHS. I DONT HAVE THE VEHICLE WITH ME AND AM GUESSING ON THE MILEAGE ALSO THIS HAPPENED ON MULTIPLE DATES SO I ENTERED ONE OF THE RANDOM DATED BELOW.

IT APPEARS THAT I AM ONE OF MANY DODGE OWNERS WITH TIPM ISSUES. AT LEAST ONCE A DAY WHEN GOING TO START THE ENGINE, IT JUST CRANKS AND CRANKS BUT WON'T START. AFTER TURNING OFF THE KEY AND TRYING ONE OR TWO OR THREE MORE TIMES, IT WILL START. THE BATTERY IS BRAND NEW, AND THE STARTER IS GETTING PLENTY OF POWER. COMPARING MY EXPERIENCE WITH WHAT I'VE READ ONLINE, I FIRMLY BELIEVE THE ISSUE IS THE FUEL PUMP RELAY SWITCH IN THE TIPM. IT STARTED MONTHS AGO, AND HAS GOTTEN WORSE. MY WIFE DRIVES THIS VEHICLE THE MOST, VERY OFTEN WITH OUR KIDS INSIDE. WE JUST HAVE TO HOPE AND PRAY THAT IT WILL START AND NOT STRAND THEM SOMEWHERE. SO FAR, WE HAVE ONLY HAD ISSUES WHILE STATIONARY. THANK GOODNESS IT HASN'T SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING AS MANY OTHER OWNERS HAVE STATED. THIS IS WHY I FEEL IT IS AN IMPORTANT SAFETY ISSUE. WHAT IF IT WERE TO SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF A FREEWAY OR WHILE CROSSING AN INTERSECTION? I FIND IT ABSURD THAT DODGE (OR FIAT CHRYSLER WHATEVER) WOULD LET THIS ISSUE GO WHILE HAVING KNOWLEDGE OF SO MANY TIPM ISSUES, EVEN WITH A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FILED AGAINST THEM.

WHEN WE FIST GOT THE VAN WE EXPERIENCED SOME ISSUES WITH THE BRAKES. THE DEALERSHIP WAS SUPPOSED TO TAKE CARE OF IT BUT THE PROBLEM PERSISTED AND WE WENT TO A RECOMMENDED MECHANIC. THEN THE FOLLOWING MONTHS WE HAD SOME ISSUES WITH THE MOTOR MOUNTS. ONCE AGAIN WE HAD TO REPLACE THEM AND THEN WE HAD SOME PROBLEMS WITH THE ELECTRONIC COMPUTER AND WE HAD TO RE-LEARN SOME OF THE ALREADY INSTALLED PROGRAMS. I WOULD LIKE FOR WHOEVER APPROVES THE RECALLS TO GO AHEAD AND APPROVE THE OTHER ISSUES BECAUSE FOR IT BEING A SIX YEAR OLD CAR IT DEFINITELY HAS MORE ISSUES THAN IT SHOULD.

TWICE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON AT THE TIME OF THE ENGINE STALLING. TWICE NO INDICATION. ENGINE JUST QUIT. IT HAPPENED AGAIN LAST NIGHT (08/30/2017) WHEN MY WIFE WAS COMING HOME ON THE INTERSTATE. SHE WAS IN TRAFFIC AND THE ENGINE JUST QUIT. BIG SAFETY ISSUE. THANK GOD THAT SHE WAS NOT IN AN ACCIDENT. SOME THING IS WRONG WITH MY GRAN CARAVAN. THIS PROBLEM STARTED EARLY THIS YEAR (2017). FIRST TIME TO A DODGE FACILITY WAS ON 05/23/17, NEXT ON 06/05/17 AND ON 07/07/17.

SHORTLY AFTERWARDS, THE TRACTION CONTROL, ABS, AND AIR BAG LIGHTS ILLUMINATED AND THE RPMS FLUCTUATED WHILE DRIVING MY KIDS TO SUMMER CAMP OUT OF TOWN. WHEN I ARRIVED TO MY DESTINATION THE CAR WOULD NOT RESTART DUE TO THE BATTERY BEING DEAD.I GOT A JUMP START AND WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO A LOCAL STORE TO REPLACE THE BATTERY AT A COST OF $163 AND MAKE IT HOME. THE NEXT DAY I STILL HAVE THE SAME ISSUES.MANY OTHERS HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND IT WOULD APPEAR THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. I WILL BE MAKING AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALER. I AM SURE IT IS THE ALTERNATOR AND I WILL NEED TO REPLACE AS OTHERS HAVE DONE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE.

WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN DRIVE BUT IS STATIONARY, EVERYTHING WILL TURN OFF. THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM GOES DOWN AND THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF. AFTER A BRIEF MOMENT (APPROXIMATELY ONE TO TWO SECONDS), THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WILL COME BACK UP AND ALL ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS COME BACK ON, BUT THE CLOCK ON THE RADIO IS RESET TO 12:00. AT THIS POINT, WE CAN PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND RESTART IT. THIS HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES IN THE PAST SEVERAL WEEKS. THE MOST RECENT OCCURRENCE WAS 2017.07.07 AND IT DID IT TWICE WITHIN FIFTEEN MINUTES. WE DO NOT KNOW FOR SURE WHAT IS CAUSING THIS TO OCCUR, BUT IT SEEMS TO BE CONNECTED TO THE MAIN COMPUTER AND/OR THE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM, AS THIS IS A COMPLETE SYSTEM SHUTDOWN.

VEHICLE HAS ISSUES STARTING. AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS AN INTERMITTENT ELECTRICAL PROBLEM BUT THEN MY VEHICLE STALLED ON THE FREEWAY. I TOOK IT IN TO BE SERVICED IN DECEMBER 2016 AND THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND CONCLUDED THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. SINCE DECEMBER THE VEHICLE HAS STALLED WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY CLOSE TO10 TIMES. AFTER MUCH RESEARCH AND READING OTHER PEOPLE'S STORIES IT SEEMS THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH A DEFECTIVE TIPM. THERE WAS A RECALL ON DODGE CARAVANS MADE BETWEEN 2008-2011. THIS DEFECT IS CLEARLY PRESENT IN OTHER YEARS AND MODELS AND I FIND THIS ALARMING THAT DODGE/CHRYSLER HAS DONE NOTHING. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AND AS A MOM TO 3 YOUNG CHILDREN, DRIVING A DEFECTIVE, UNRELIABLE AND UNSAFE CAR IS UNACCEPTABLE.

STARTING SEPTEMBER 2016 WE NOTICED OUR LIGHTS WOULD GO ON FOR NO REASON AND OUR DOORS WOULD OPEN ON ITS OWN. WE INITIALLY CHALKED IT UP TO OUR KEY BEING FAULTY AND REPLACED THE BATTERIES, BUT EVERY SO OFTEN IT KEPT HAPPENING. IN OCTOBER OUR BATTERY DIED, WE FIGURED THE LAST TIME WE CHANGED IT WAS WHEN WE ORIGINALLY GOT THE VAN SO MAYBE IT WAS JUST TIME AND REPLACED IT. THEN IN NOVEMBER OUR CAR WOULD NOT START RIGHT AWAY. IT STARTED WITH HAVE TO CRANK ABOUT 2 TIMES. ESPECIALLY IN THE MORNING AFTER IT SAT UNUSED FOR A COUPLE HOURS, BUT THEN THROUGHOUT THE DAY IT WAS FINE. SOON THOUGH IT TOOK 5 TIMES BEFORE IT WOULD START SO WE TOOK IT INTO TO OUR MECHANIC TO SEE IF THERE WAS AN ISSUE. NOTHING REGISTERED ON THE COMPUTER, WE FIGURED MAYBE OUR FUEL LINES WERE CLOGGED AND WE DID A FLUSH. IT FIXED THE STARTING PROBLEM FOR ABOUT A WEEK AND THEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN. WE COULD HEAR OUR CAR CRANKING, BUT IT WOULD NOT START AND WE WOULD HAVE TO CRANK IT A COUPLE TIMES. THEN WHILE DRIVING OUR CAR JUST STOPPED. EVERYTHING SHUT DOWN, MIND YOU WHILE DRIVING DOWNHILL AT ABOUT 45 MPH. THE WHEEL LOCKED AND LUCKILY MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING, HE WAS ABLE TO GET TO THE SIDE. WE TOWED OUR CAR TO THE MECHANIC WHO SAID NOW THE COMPUTER IS SAYING THE FUEL PUMP IS BAD. SO WE CHANGED THAT. OUR VAN WORKED PERFECTLY...FOR ONE DAY. THE NEXT MORNING IT WOULD CRANK, BUT NOT START. AFTER TOWING TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY STATED THE NEXT APPOINTMENT WAS IN JANUARY 2017 AND OUR VAN WOULD BE ON STANDBY. WE ARE FORTUNATE WE DID NOT HAVE TO WAIT THAT LONG TO HAVE THEM LOOK AT IT, BUT NOW THEY STATED WE NEEDED TO REPLACE THE BATTERY...AGAIN! THE PROBLEM WAS OUR TIPM. IT BASICALLY FRIED OUR BRAND NEW BATTERY. TOTAL COST FOR REPLACING JUST THE TIPM $1200!!!! THAT IS NOT INCLUDING $140 FOR DIAGNOSTICS AND $140 FOR A NEW BATTERY. HOW CAN THIS HAPPEN TO A CAR THAT IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD? *TR

THE FUEL PUMP COULD BE HEARD RUNNING, EVEN WITH THE KEY OFF AND SHE SAID THE VAN ACTED LIKE IT WAS POSSESSED. BASED ON ONLINE INFORMATION, I REPLACED THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR, WHICH WAS LISTED AS A TOP CULPRIT IN THE PROBLEM AND THAT SOLVED NOTHING. FURTHER RESEARCH INDICATED THE TIPM UNIT IS MOST LIKELY THE CAUSE AND WE FOUND THAT HER MAKE/MODEL OF VEHICLE IS PART OF A LAWSUIT FOR THIS PROBLEM.

BOUGHT THIS VAN USED IN JANUARY 2016. WE HAD IT TOWED TO THE SHOP WITHIN A WEEK OF PURCHASING. THE DASH LIGHTS AND HEADLIGHTS WERE FLICKERING WHILE DRIVING. WHEN BRAKING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL, RADIO/NAVIGATION SYSTEM AND DVD PLAYER WOULD SHUT DOWN AND RESTART ITSELF. THEY EVENTUALLY SAID THERE WAS A SHORT IN THE TRANSMISSION CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO BECOME STUCK IN 4TH GEAR. IT WAS FINE FOR A MONTH OR SO, BUT STARTED DOING THE SAME THINGS AGAIN. THIS TIME THE ALTERNATOR WAS REPLACED. AGAIN IT WAS FINE FOR A SHORT TIME. WE LET THE PROBLEM CONTINUE WITHOUT TAKING IT TO THE SHOP UNTIL IT STARTED DYING. AT FIRST IT WAS ONLY DYING WHEN STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT OR STOP SIGN. ONCE I WAS NOT ABLE TO IMMEDIATELY RESTART. THEN IT STARTED DYING WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. BOTH TIMES WERE INSTANCES OF DECELERATION. THE DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS RECORDING EVENTS OF LOW VOLTAGE. AFTER HAVING IT FOR A WEEK, THEY TOLD US THERE WAS A MALFUNCTION WITHIN THE NEW ALTERNATOR AND PUT A NEW ONE IN. THE DAY AFTER WE PICKED IT UP IT STARTED SHUTTING THE ELECTRONICS DOWN AGAIN. CLEARLY THE ALTERNATOR DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. WE ALSO HAD THE ALTERNATOR TESTED ON OUR OWN THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED IN JANUARY AS WE THOUGHT THAT COULD BE THE PROBLEM AND THE ALTERNATOR TESTED FINE.

EARLIER 2008 TO 2010 CHRYSLER TOWN & COUNTRY AND DODGE GRAND CARAVANS WERE EXPERIENCING AN IGNITION PROBLEM WITH THE (WIN) WIRELESS IGNITION NODE MODULE RECALL #14V-373, CHRYSLER #R03. WE NOTICED THAT AN EXTRA FOBIK COULD NOT BE PROGRAMMED ON THESE VEHICLES BECAUSE OF A FAILURE IN THE (WIN). THESE AFFECTED MODELS WERE REPLACED UNDER THIS RECALL. I NOW HAVE A 2012 GRAND CARAVAN THAT ALSO HAS A NON-RESPONSIVE (WIN) (EXTRA FOBIK CAN NOT BE PROGRAMMED) AND WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED; HOWEVER, THIS IS NEARLY AN IDENTICAL UNIT TO THE 2008-2010 MODELS AND THIS IS THE SAME THING WE EXPERIENCED WITH THE MODULE LOOSING ITS COMMUNICATION. I SUSPECT THAT IT IS A PRECURSOR TO THE SAME ISSUE (WIN FAILURE) AND CHRYSLER NEEDS TO REPLACE THESE NEWER UNITS AS WELL. A COMPLETE FAILURE OF THE IGNITION MODULE COULD SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF WHEN IT IS GOING DOWN THE ROAD. THIS PROBLEM THEY ARE HAVING WITH NEWER IGNITION MODULES APPEARS TO BE VERY SIMILAR TO THE EARLIER MODEL. ITS A POTENTIAL HAZARD AND AN EXPENSIVE FIX THAT PEOPLE COULD PUT OFF (DON'T HAVE TO PROGRAM AN EXTRA FOBIK) AND LATER HAVE A BIGGER ISSUES WITH A (WIN) FAILURE THAT CAUSES AN ENGINE SHUT-OFF CONDITION GOING DOWN THE ROAD.

OUR VAN HAS HAD ELECTRICAL ISSUES OVER THE PAST 3-4 WEEKS. FIRST, CERTAIN LIGHTS IN THE CABIN WOULD FLICKER INTERMITTENTLY. STARTING LAST WEEK, THE DASH LIGHTS WOULD FLICKER ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING. THE CAR THEN STARTED TO LOSE POWER WHILE IDLING. THEN ONE DAY THE CAR BRIEFLY LOST POWER WHILE GOING 75 MPH ON I-70. IT RESTORED INSTANTLY BUT DISPLAYED A BATTERY WARNING LIGHT. I PULLED OVER AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE, WHERE IT OPERATED NORMALLY AGAIN. WITHIN THE LAST FEW DAYS, HOWEVER, THE CAR CONTINUES TO LOSE POWER WHILE IDLING, EVEN IF IN GEAR. *JS

BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING KIDS TO SCHOOL. DROVE A SHORT DISTANCE HOME(5MI). TESTED BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR. VOLTAGE ON BOTH APPEARED WITHIN NORMAL RANGES. LET VEHICLE IDLE WITHIN MY DRIVEWAY WITH THE LIGHTS/RADIO/HEATER ON. BATTERY WAS DEAD WITHIN 20MIN.

3 INSTANCES OF ENGINE ELECTRICAL ISSUES, SUSPECT POWER CONTROL MODULE BOX. FIRST INSTANCE ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO, PULLING INTO DRIVEWAY, AND HEADLIGHTS AND DASHBOARD BEGIN TO FLICKER UNCONTROLLABLY. I PULLED NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE, RE-CONNECTED AFTER A COUPLE OF MINUTES, AND ALL NORMALITY RETURNS. 2ND ISSUE, SOME YEAR AGO OR LESS, CAR SHUTS DOWN IN MIDDLE OF HIGHWAY, LUCKILY, RIGHT NEXT TO A PARKING LOT AND RED LIGHT. AS ENGINE SHUT DOWN, I SUSPECTED THIS ISSUE ONCE AGAIN. I USED MOMENTUM TO TURN INTO PARKING LOT. (JUST ROLLED IN.) WIFE ASKED ME WHAT I WAS DOING, DIDN'T EXPLAIN UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO SECURE INTO PARKING LOT AND STOP VEHICLE. ONCE AGAIN, PULLED OFF CABLE ON BATTERY, AND WAS ABLE TO RE-SET COMPUTER GLITCH. THIRD ISSUE EVENT. WAS PARKED IN PARKING LOT, COULDN'T GET KEY CONTROL TO OPEN DOOR. USED EMERGENCY KEY TO OPEN DOOR, ONCE AGAIN, PULLED OFF BATTERY CABLE AND RE-SET COMPUTER. THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THIS COMPUTER WITHOUT A DOUBT.

PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN SEPT 2013, IMMEDIATELY THE SECOND ROW, PASSENGER-SIDE SEATBEALT DOES NOT PROPEL BACK. THE SELLER OF THE VEHICLE, DIRECTED ME TO A MECHANIC TO REPAIR IT BUT SHORTLY AFTER IT OCCURED AGAIN. LESS THAN A YEAR AFTER PURCHASE, THE FUSE/MOTOR ON THE DRIVER'S SEAT JUST STOPPED AND THE SEAT IS UNABLE TO BE ADJUSTED. LAST WEEK, WENT FOR REPAIRS TO FRONT WHEEL BEARING (TIRE POPPED DIRECTLY OFF) AND WAS ADVISED THE REAR WHEEL BEARING WILL ALSO NEED TO BE REPLACED. CANNOT TELL IF ANY OF THESE ARE NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR OR MALFUNCTIONS WITH THE VEHICLE, ESPECIALLY SINCE I HAVE ONLY HAD IT FOR 2 YEARS.

MY VAN IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD AND HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE BATTERY IN SEPT 2015. IT'S MID NOVEMBER AND NOW I'M HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE BATTERY DYING FREQUENTLY. I WENT TO WHERE I PURCHASED THE BATTERY FROM AND THEY CHECKED THE BATTERY AND SAID IT'S FINE. THE MOTOR RANKS WITHOUT STARTING 2-3 TIMES BEFORE FINALLY STARTING. I BELIEVE THIS IS BECAUSE OF THE FUEL PUMP OR FUEL PUMP RELAY. THE RELAYS CHATTER A LOT AND THE FUEL PUMP SOUNDS MUCH DIFFERENT NOW THAN IT DID WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. IT'S AS IF THE BATTERY IS BEING G DRAINED SLOWLY BECAUSE OF EITHER THE FUEL PUMP OR FUEL PUMP RELAY OR BOTH. I AM A CERTIFIED AIRCRAFT AND AUTO MECHANIC WITH ELECTRICAL TROUBLESHOOTING CAPABILITIES. I HAVE YET TO APPROACH THE DODGE DEALER WITH THIS BECAUSE IT HAS ONLY HAPPENED TWICE SO FAR WITH ME BEING AT WORK WHILE MY WIFE HAS HAD TO DEAL WITH THIS ISSUE BOTH TIMES SO FAR.

THE VAN FOR A FEW WEEKS WOULD OCCASIONALLY NOT START ON THE FIRST ATTEMPT, IT WOULD CRANK, JUST NOT START. AT FIRST I THOUGHT I JUST DIDN'T TURN THE KEY LONG ENOUGH TO START, BUT IN THE BEGINNING OF OCTOBER IT STARTED GETTING WORSE AND I KNEW THERE WAS A PROBLEM. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC ON OCT 7TH AND THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE THE NO START ISSUE AND COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING, SO I WAS ASKED TO BRING IT BACK WHEN THEIR MOPAR GUY WAS BACK. WE THOUGHT IT WAS A FUEL PUMP ISSUE SO WE TRIED TO RUN A CLEANER THROUGH IT, BUT AFTER A FEW DAYS IT ONLY GO WORSE. ON OCT 19TH I BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE MECHANIC (STILL THINKING IT WAS A FUEL PUMP ISSUE) AND THEY SAID THE CRANK SENOR WAS NOT RESPONDING. THEY REPLACED THAT TWICE BUT IT STILL WOULDN'T RESPOND TO THE PROGRAMMING. HAD TO PAY $150+ FOR THE CRANK SENSOR... THEY FINALLY SAID THAT I WOULD NEED TO BRING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE IT MOST LIKELY WAS THE MAIN COMPUTER AND SINCE THAT PART WOULD BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY THEY COULD REPLACE IT WITHOUT ANY OUT OF POCKET. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY INFORMED ME IT WAS THE TIPM AND THAT IT WOULD COST OVER $1,000 TO FIX. THE GUY AT THE DEALERSHIP SAID IT'S "NOT A COMMON PROBLEM" SO THEY COULDN'T GET THE PART FROM THEIR WAREHOUSE, THEY HAD TO ORDER IT FROM THE MANUFACTURER AND IT WOULD BE IN AT THE BEGINNING OF NEXT WEEK (OCT 26TH OR 27TH). I HADN'T HEARD ANYTHING SO I WENT INTO FIND OUT WHAT WAS GOING ON AND HE INFORMED ME THAT THE PART HAD TO BE MADE BECAUSE "IT'S NOT COMMON" AND WOULD HOPEFULLY BE IN AROUND FRIDAY (OCT 30TH). STILL NO WORD. AND TODAY I FOUND OUT THIS IS NOT UNCOMMON THAT THERE IS ACTUALLY A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FOR THIS VERY ISSUE!!!! THEY WILL NOT GIVE ME A LOANER AND I HAVE 3 KIDS THAT I HAVE NO WAY OF GETTING AROUND IN A LITTLE KIA FORTE.

I WAS ENTERING ON A BUSY INTERSTATE WHEN MY 2012 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN R/T GOT TO ABOUT 50+ MPH THE GAS PEDAL KEPT ACCELERATING AND WOULD NOT STOP THE RPM GAGE HIT 6 THE ONLY WAY I GOT IT TO STOP WAS TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL AND PULL OF THE ROAD THE RMP'S KEPT GOING AS DID THE ENGINE I TURNED THE VAN OFF IN NEUTRAL AND PUT IT IN PARK. WHEN I STARTED THE VAN BACK UP IT INSTANTLY STARTED DOING THE SAME THING IN PARK. I TURNED THE VAN BACK OFF AND WAITED ABOUT 5 MINUTES AND WHEN I RESTARTED THE VAN IT SEEMED NORMAL. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THAT DAY ON A SATURDAY THEY CALLED ME MONDAY AND SAID IT HAPPENED WITH THEIR TECHNICIANS DRIVING AND HE REMOVED THE FLOOR MAT THAT HAD BEEN IN THERE FOR 2 AND A HALF YEARS AND IT WAS FINE THEY TOLD ME THE FLOOR MAT GOT STUCK UNDER THE PEDAL! COMMON SENSE SAYS IT WOULD STOP THE PEDAL FROM BEING PUSHED DOWN NOT PULL THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR. BUT WHAT DO I KNOW RIGHT!?!?!?! I AM JUST A FEMALE AND MOTHER TO 2 SMALL CHILDREN WHO WERE WITH ME WHEN IT HAPPENED. IT DID THIS AGAIN WITH MY HUSBAND DRIVING ON A 6 LANE ROAD WHEN HE PULLED OUT FROM A STOP. THIS TIME THE FLOOR MAT HAD NOT BEEN THERE. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS MATTER BEFORE A RUN AWAY VEHICLE KILLS SOMEONE! THEY KEEP TELLING ME THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE PROBLEM IS CAUSED FROM BECAUSE NO CODES COME UP ON DIAGNOSTICS. HOWEVER IF YOU SEARCH THE ISSUE ONLINE IT POINTS TO THE TIPM AND THE FUEL PUMP NOT SHUTTING OFF. THE SAFETY ISSUE OF THIS IS PRETTY SEVERE IF YOU ASK ME. A VEHICLE THAT ACCELERATES ON ITS OWN IS PRETTY SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS NOT ONLY FOR MY FAMILY BUT TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC AS WELL! I DO NOT WANT TO JUST GET RID OF THE VEHICLE IT IS THE FIRST BRAND NEW VEHICLE MY FAMILY HAS OWNED AND EVEN PURCHASED THE EXTENDED WARRANTY WITH THE HOPES OF KEEPING THE VEHICLE FOR AT LEAST 6 YEARS AND NOW THIS IS NOT A SAFE FAMILY VEHICLE!

RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE P25/NHTSA 14V-234 IN JUNE 2014. THE IMMEDIATE FIX WAS TO DISCONNECT THE ELECTRICAL SUPPLY TO THE REAR QUARTER VENT WINDOWS UNTIL NEW PARTS WERE AVAILABLE. IT HAS BEEN ALMOST ONE YEAR NOW, AND NEW PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE. HAVE NOT HAD THE USE OF THE REAR QUARTER VENT WINDOWS SINCE JUNE 2014. ( THE WINDOWS WERE WORKING FINE PRIOR TO THIS, BUT THE RECALL STATES THAT THE WINDOW SWITCH MAY OVERHEAT IF EXPOSED TO LIQUID MOISTURE, AND DRIVERS SIDE DOOR FIRE.) WE HAVE CALLED THE DODGE DEALERSHIP IN HAMMOND, LA SEVERAL TIMES IN THE LAST YEAR TO FIND OUT IF PARTS WERE NOW AVAILABLE, AND THEY INFORM US THAT THEY STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE REQUIRED PARTS.

MY HEAT IN THE GRAND CARAVAN STOPPED BLOWING HEAT IN -10 BELOW WEATHER. I CALLED DODGE CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY SAID TAKE THE VEHICLE TO A DEALER AND HAVE THE ISSUE DIAGNOSED AND CALL THEM BACK. THE HVAC SYSTEM NEEDED TO BE UPDATED APPARENTLY ( WHICH MEANS IM NOT THE ONLY PERSON THAT HAD THIS ISSUE AND IS NO FAULT OF MY OWN) AND WOULD COST $105 TO REPROGRAM THE SYSTEM. I CALLED DODGE AND THEY SAID NOTHING COULD BE DONE AS IT WAS NO LONGER UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY EVEN THOUGH THEIR SYSTEM PROGRAMMING WAS FAULTY. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AS IT HAS BEEN ONE OF THE COLDEST WINTERS ON RECORD AND I PURCHASED THIS VAN WITH 34000 MILES ON IT JUNE OF 2014 TO TRANSPORT MY 4 MONTH OLD BABY AND IVE ONLY PUT 6000 MILES ON IT. *JS

WHILE DRIVING MY 2012 3.6L DODGE GRAND CARAVAN WITH A 160 AMP ALTERNATOR THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON, WITHIN 5 MILES THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM STOPPED WORKING. FURTHER ALL OF THE SYSTEM LIGHTS ON THE DASH CAME ON AND THE RADIO AND HVAC SYSTEM STOPPED FUNCTIONING. THE CAUSE OF THESE SYSTEM CONDITIONS WAS THE DENSO TN421000-0770 ALTERNATOR FAILING. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS THE SAME ALTERNATOR THAT IS USED ON VEHICLES THAT ARE INCLUDED IN NHTSA RECALL NO. : 14V-634. CHRYSLER CLAIMS THAT THE ALTERNATOR FAILS ONLY ON CARS THAT ARE EQUIPPED WITH EHPS. I BELIEVE THAT MY ALTERNATOR FAILED IN A SIMILAR FASHION TO THIS RECALL. THE DODGE AND CHRYSLER MINIVANS THAT ARE EQUIPPED WITH A 3.6L ENGINE AND THE DENSO 160 AMP ALTERNATOR SHOULD BE RECALLED. IN THE END MY CAR STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD WHICH COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT HAD I BEEN ON THE HIGHWAY. *TR

ON 10/1/2014 I TOOK MY GRAND CARAVAN INTO MY DODGE DEAL FOR REPAIR RELATED TO A RECALL NOTICE (P25 / NHTSA 14V-234). THE RECALL WAS ABOUT A FIRE HAZARD IF A SWITCH GOT WET. I WAS INFORMED THAT DUE TO A PARTS SHORTAGE THEY COULD ONLY DISCONNECT A SWITCH AT THAT TIME AND THAT THEY COULD NOT REPLACE THE SWITCH BECAUSE OF A PARTS SHORTAGE. THAT WAS OVER 2 MONTHS AGO (67 DAYS). UPON CALLING THE DEAL THIS MORNING, I WAS INFORMED THAT THEY STILL DO NOT HAVE THE PART (SWITCH) AND HAVE NO IDEA WHEN THEY WILL GET THE PART TO MAKE THE REPAIR. WHEN I FIRST WAS NOTIFIED OF THIS RECALL BACK IN JUNE OR JULY OF 2014, I WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS A PARTS SHORTAGE, SO I INTENTIONALLY WAITED WHAT I BELIEVED TO BE A REASONABLE PERIOD OF TIME BEFORE I ATTEMPTED TO GET THIS RECALL REPAIRED. I HAVE NOW RECEIVED A SECOND NOTICE FROM CHRYSLER TELLING ME TO GET IT REPAIRED. I CAN SEE NO REASON FOR THE DELAY OF PARTS FOR THIS REPAIR.

WITH NO WARNING, I WENT OUT TO START MY 2012 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN, AND IT TURNED OVER FOR ABOUT A SECOND, THEN IT WAS LIKE SOMEONE TURNED OFF THE POWER TO THE STARTER ... IT JUST QUIT! I TRIED AND TRIED TO START IT, BUT ALL I GET IS ONE SMALL CLICK WHEN I TURN THE KEY. I GOT ONLINE AND DID A SEARCH, ONLY TO FIND THAT THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN RAMPANT FOR YEARS NOW; AND CHRYSLER APPARENTLY WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I AM CURRENTLY UNEMPLOYED AND NEED MY VAN TO LOOK FOR WORK, AND TO GET TO WORK IF I FIND A JOB. WE ARE LIVING ON MY WIFE'S INCOME RIGHT NOW, SO I CAN'T AFFORD TO PUT IT IN THE SHOP, AND THE WARRANTY HAS RUN OUT. IT'S ONLY 2 YEARS OLD ... THERE'S NO WAY I SHOULD BE HAVING MAJOR PROBLEMS THIS SOON! I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M GOING TO DO AT THIS POINT, BUT I AM FURIOUS AFTER READING THE HORROR STORIES PEOPLE HAVE POSTED, WHERE SOME HAVE SPENT $2000 - $3000 TO GET THIS FIXED, AND THEN THE PROBLEM COMES BACK!!! *TR

DOCUMENTED SEVERAL TIMES SINCE 2013, THIS VAN HAS HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE FOLLOWING: SPEEDOMETER DOES NOT READ, GAUGES DO NOT READ, WINDSHIELD WIPERS TURN ON, ALL WARNING LIGHTS READ, HEADLIGHTS DO NOT WORK, A/C DOES NOT WORK; THEN ALL TURN OFF RANDOMLY AND INTERMITTENTLY TURN BACK ON AND OFF AGAIN. IN MAY 2014, THE VAN HAD TRANSMISSION ISSUES WHERE IT WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF LOW GEAR AND DRIVER HAD TO TWICE SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL AND BACK INTO DRIVE TO SHIFT PROPERLY. 6 REPAIR ATTEMPTS WERE MADE ON THE VAN BEGINNING IN MAY 2013 AND ENDING IN JULY 2013 WITH NO SUCCESS ON REPAIRS. THE VAN WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY SO REPAIR WAS FREE OF CHARGE. REPLACEMENT OF THE TIPM WAS TWICE ATTEMPTED BUT FAILED BECAUSE OF THE FAULTY 2012 TIPMS. THIS VAN IS USED BY RSVP, A FEDERALLY FUNDED NATIONWIDE NON-PROFIT, TO TRANSPORT SENIOR VOLUNTEERS TO THEIR WORK SITES. THIS VAN HAS THE POTENTIAL TO PUT PEOPLE INTO A DANGEROUS CRASH AND NEEDS CHRYSLER TO REPAIR THE TIPMS IMMEDIATELY. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ALONG THE HIGHWAY AT NIGHT, I TURNED OFF THE HIGH BEAMS BECAUSE OF AN APPROACHING CAR. THE MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH INSTANTLY FAILED; I WAS UNABLE TO ACTIVATE THE HIGH BEAMS AGAIN, MY DIRECTIONAL SIGNALS DID NOT WORK AND THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS BEGAN TO WIPE INCESSANTLY. I CONSIDER THIS TO BE A SAFETY-RELATED DEFECT, BECAUSE I COULD NOT SIGNAL MY INTENTIONS TO OTHER DRIVERS, NOR COULD I USE THE HIGH BEAMS TO IMPROVE VISIBILITY. ON A TWO-YEAR-OLD VAN WITH ONLY 89,000 MILES, THIS FAILURE SEEMS PREMATURE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 14V234000 (ELECTRICAL) AND STATED THAT THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE FOR MONTHS. THE DEALER DID NOT GIVE A SPECIFIC DATE FOR WHEN THE PART WOULD BECOME AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS ALSO CONTACTED AND COULD NOT PROVIDE AN ESTIMATED DATE FOR WHEN THE CONTACTS VEHICLE WOULD RECEIVE THE RECALL REPAIR. THE CONTACT DID NOT EXPERIENCE A FAILURE.

THE VEHICLE WILL SHUTDOWN RANDOMLY WITH NO INDICATION AS TO WHY AND/OR WILL NOT START RANDOMLY DUE TO ANTITHEFT BEING ACTIVATED. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS NOT ACTIVATED UPON VEHICLE SHUTDOWN OR FAILURE TO START. WHEN THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING THE TACHOMETER WILL REAP ABOUT 900 RPM AND THE ONLY INDICATOR ON THE DASH IS A YELLOW TRACTION CONTROL ILLUMINATION ON THE DASH. THERE IS NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, LOW OIL PRESSURE INDICATION, OR LOW BATTERY INDICATION. AFTER A PERIOD OF TIME FROM A FEW MINUTES TO SEVERAL HOURS THE VEHICLE WILL RESTART AND RUN NORMALLY. THE VEHICLE MAY RUN NORMALLY FOR A FEW SECONDS TO MONTHS AT A TIME UNTIL THE PROBLEM REAPPEARS. THE PROBLEM CAN OCCUR ANYTIME WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE INCLUDING DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, INTERSECTIONS, PARKING LOTS, AND EXPRESSWAYS. WHEN THE VEHICLE STOPS RUNNING, THE STEERING AND BRAKING BECOME VERY DIFFICULT TO OPERATE. *TR

THIS MORNING THE FIRST THING I NOTICED WAS THAT THE CRUISE CONTROL WOULD NOT WORK. THIS AFTERNOON, I WENT TO A LOCAL HARDWARE STORE, PURCHASED SOME ITEMS THEN WENT TO MY VAN. WHEN OPENING THE DRIVER DOOR, THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG DEPLOYED FROM THE STEERING WHEEL. THERE IS NO SIGN OF ANY DAMAGE TO THE OUTSIDE OF THE CAR. I DID NOTICE THAT WHEN I STARTED THE VAN THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS BEGAN BUT I COULD NOT STOP THEM. WHEN THE WRECKER CAME AND THE CAR WAS STARTED, THE WIPERS DID NOT COME ON BY THEM SELVES AGAIN GLAD THAT THIS DID NOT HAPPEN WHEN THE CAR WAS MOVING.. *JS

ALL LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD CAME ON AND THE VEHICLE STARTING DINGING. I PULLED OVER, SHUT IT OFF, SAW NO VISIBLE PROBLEMS, TRIED TO RESTART, & THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT RESPOND TO THE FOB. HAD IT TOWED, WHERE THEY REPLACED THE CLOCK SPRING. HAD THE VEHICLE FOR 6 DAYS WHEN IT DID THE SAME THING. I AM NOW TOLD THAT THEY HAVE TO REPLACE THE TIPM MODULE. THIS PART IS ON BACKORDER ACROSS THE US. EVERYTHING I'VE READ SAYS IT WILL BE 3 MTHS OR LONGER BEFORE THE PART IS AVAILABLE. CHRYSLER IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM & A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT HAS BEEN FILED. I AM IN A POWER WHEELCHAIR, AND MY VAN HAS BEEN EQUIPPED WITH A WHEELCHAIR RAMP, KNEELING SYSTEM, DRIVER'S TRANSFER SEAT, AND LOW EFFORT STEERING. I NOW HAVE TO LEAVE MY VAN AT THE DEALER UNTIL IT IS FIXED BECAUSE IT'S NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. THE DEALER PROVIDES A LOANER BUT I AM UNABLE TO TRANSPORT MY POWER WHEELCHAIR. IT WEIGHS 360 LBS SO IT CANNOT BE LIFTED INTO A VEHICLE. I WORK FULL TIME, AND RELY ON MY WHEELCHAIR TO GIVE ME THE STAMINA TO MAKE IT THROUGH THE DAY. THIS TIPM MODULE FAILURE IS NOW COMPLETELY INTERFERING WITH MY LIFE. I WILL HAVE TO MAKE EXTRA PLANS TO GET GROCERIES, AND TO GET TO AND FROM WORK. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING AND ADMIT THEIR PART IS FAULTY, GET THEM OUT TO PEOPLE WHO NEED THEM, AND COVER THE COST. ONCE THE TIPM MODULE IS INSTALLED, THE DEALER WILL CHARGE ME ANOTHER $550. *TR

ONE NIGHT I WAS DRIVING WITH MY 4 YOUNG CHILDREN IN THE VAN ON A BACK ROAD TO GO HOME. ALL OF A SUDDEN ALL OF MY DASH LIGHTS CAME ON, MY RADIO SHUT OFF AND MY HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT. THAT LAST ABOUT 25 SECS. THEN MY VAN STALLED. I WAS SCARED TO HAVE THEM IN THE VAN WITH ME ON A BACK ROAD WITH NO HEADLIGHTS FIRST THEN A STALLED VAN. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF TO THE SIDE, WAITED 10 MINS AND STARTED IT BACK UP AGAIN. THE NEXT DAY I HAD THE VAN RUNNING IN PARK IT STALLED. I STARTED IT BACK UP OK, UNTIL I PUT IT IN REVERSE. IT STALLED AGAIN AFTER ALL THE DASH LIGHTS CAME ON THEN BACK OFF. I STARTED BACK UP AND IT SEEMED OK. I STOPPED AT A RED LIGHTS, SAME THING HAPPENED. IT STALLED AFTER ALL DASH LIGHTS WENT ON AND OFF AND RADIO SHUT DOWN. I HAVE HAD THIS VAN SINCE 3/23/14 AND IT STARTED 6/25/14. I CALLED THE DEALER SHIP AND EXPLAINED THE PROBLEM TO THEM. THEY SAID THAT SINCE IT WAS 3 DAYS PASSED THE WARRANTY IT WILL BE MY RESPONSIBILITY. I WAS LIKE REALLY. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO KNOW. I JUST GOT THE VEHICLE 93 DAYS AGO SO ONLY MADE 3 PAYMENTS AND NOW HAVE TO PROBABLY DO EXPENSIVE WORK ON IT. THE DODGE DEALER WAS NOT HELPFUL AND RUDE ABOUT IT. SO NOW I HAVE THIS VEHICLE I STILL HAVE TO PAY ON FOR 6 YEARS AND AFTER ONLY 3 MONTHS OF OWNING I HAVE MAJOR ISSUES AND A VERY BIG SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE I HAVE KIDS IN THE VAN. *TR

NO ACCELERATION WHEN GAS PEDAL PUSHED, RPMS RACED BUT NOT ABLE TO PROCEED. WARNING LIGHT INDICATING ELECTRONIC THROTTLE PROBLEM. PULLED OFF THE HIGHWAY, TURNED OFF THE IGNITION, SAT FOR 5 MINUTES. RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND DROVE IMMEDIATELY TO THE DEALERSHIP. TOLD THEM TO CALL ME WHEN IT WAS CORRECTED. FORTUNATELY, I HAD PURCHASED THE EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THIS MINIVAN DUE TO HAVING HUGE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS WITH A 2002 HONDA ODYSSEY. THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID THE TECHNICIAN WHO TORE THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE APART FOUND FIBER IN IT. THE RADIO WAS ALSO NOT WORKING BUT THEY SAID THAT THERE WAS A WIRE THAT CAME LOOSE. RADIO NOW WORKING AS WELL AS THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE. NO CHARGE BECAUSE I PURCHASED THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. UPON READING OTHER ELECTRONIC THROTTLE PROBLEMS AT THIS SITE I FELT COMPELLED TO JOT DOWN MY EXPERIENCE. *TR
