These vehicles may have a loose or missing brand emblem in the center of the steering wheel. The loose emblem or the securing nuts for the emblem within the driver air bag module may become projectiles in the event of a driver air bag deployment.

Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2019 Dodge Grand Caravan vehicles. The welds on the outboard rear seat strikers for the second row bench and second row bucket seats may fail during a front impact crash. The front outboard seat strikers for the third row bench seats may fail in the event of a rear impact crash.

Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2018-2019 Dodge Grand Caravan and Jeep Compass, 2018 Dodge Journey, and 2019 Jeep Cherokee vehicles. The rear brake caliper pistons on these vehicles may have an insufficient coating causing gas pockets to form, potentially reducing rear brake performance.
It's identical to the Ro3 Dodge Grand Caravan recall. My year, make, and model were recalled for this issue, but Dodge says my vin falls out the production window. However, parts from the exact same vendor (Continental) that suffer from the same weak internal detents were often installed in vehicles outside the official recall parameters. The internal springs in my Wireless Ignition Node (WIN) module have worn down, causing the vehicle to turn off from road bumps or key weight. The van stalls when the key jiggles. Driving down the road and I lose everything, power steering etc. Super dangerous to myself and others on the roadway. It's obviously the issue, when you watch the key fall into accessory mode from a bump or road vibration. This has happened repeatedly and the recall should be expanded to include more VIN numbers experiencing the same issue.

My vehicle caught fire on 10-14 after being parked for 2.5 hours. Three weeks prior I had bumped into a light pole while backing up and my airbag light triggered on. The airbag did not deploy and nothing seemed wrong with the van. Then my battery died so I had to have it jumped. It died 3-4 times before I replaced it with a fresh battery 10-7. I did smell heat, but I attributed it to my oil leak, but I think I was smelling wires, not oil. I went by an autoparts store and they read my old battery temp and it was at 173 and didn’t say it was hot or anything. I don’t think that was safe to put a new battery in when there was obviously a problem. The airbag light consistently dinged off and on but since the airbag didn’t deploy I didn’t think it was any problem. But now I think it was slow draining the battery and then the new one kept charging it causing something to overheat and catch fire.
About a month ago had an issue where the battery was drained completely. Couldn't unlock the van with the FOB, had to use the physical key to unlock the door. Was able to jump the battery and i started right up. Assumed that a over-head light was left on. Confirmed the battery was holding a charge, no issues with alternator. Had the same battery drain a couple of days later. Jumped the van again. Remove any devices from all the power outlets. The battery issue went away. 2 weeks ago noticed that the instrument cluster console appeared to be frozen. I tried to change the settings to view the trip counter. Turns out that none of the steering wheel buttons were working, except for the Cruise Contorl. The steering wheel horn is not working either. However the horn beeps when I use the FOB to lock the van. As it was at night time, noticed that the over-head interior lights are not working either. The lights in the doors are working. The vanity mirror lights are working. Checked the owners manual and online look-ups, found that the M20 fuse is responsible the following items (which are not working) - Instrument Cluster Interior Light, Switch Bank, Steering Column Module, Switch Steering Wheel Pulled the fuse and found that it was blown. With the van not running, replaced the fuse. And it blew immediately. Based on online searches, and some troubleshooting to help try and narrow the issue, it appears that the problem is the clockspring in the steering wheel. Based on information it appears to be known issue. I called the dealer to see what the cost was to diagnose and replace. i'm looking at over 1K for parts and labor to replace the clockspring. My previous mini-van, which was a 2015 dodge caravan with 180K had no issues with the clockspring. This van is 4 years newer and half the miles.

The contact owns a 2008 Dodge Grand Caravan. The contact stated that a dealer recently serviced under NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V396000 (Air Bags, Steering). The contact stated that the dealer replaced the airbag module components located underneath the center console; however, the connected wiring was not replaced. Later, while the unoccupied vehicle was parked in a casino parking lot, the casino staff informed the contact that the vehicle was on fire. The fire department arrived, extinguished the flames, and filed an official report. The incident: the vehicle was towed to the contact's residence, where a secondary inspection indicated that the fire originated underneath the center console, where the recall repair had been performed. Both the manufacturer and dealer were notified of the failure, and the dealer provided documentation of the completed recall services. The failure mileage was 180,000.
