ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
TIPM FAILING. OUR 2011 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN ONLY HAS 78,000 MILES ON IT, YET THE TIPM IS CAUSING ALL SORTS OF PROBLEMS. THE BIGGEST ISSUE IS THAT THE VEHICLE WON'T START ON OCCASION, AND IT'S PROGRESSIVELY GETTING WORSE. THE ENGINE TURNS OVER, BUT IT DOESN'T START AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN TODAY. OTHER TIMES IT WON'T EVEN TURN OVER. WHEN IT DOESN'T TURN OVER, WE USUALLY PUT THE VEHICLE INTO NEUTRAL AND BACK INTO PARK, THEN IT USUALLY STARTS. WE'VE ALSO HAD THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ON MANY TIMES. ONE SET OF CODES WAS FOR A CAMSHAFT POSITIONING SENSOR, SO WE REPLACED THOSE. THEN A COUPLE WEEKS LATER IT DID IT AGAIN, SO WE HAD THEM REPLACED AGAIN. AFTER A FEW MONTHS WE THEN HAD THE LIGHT COME ON AND THE DEALERSHIP EVENTUALLY HAD THE PCV HOSE AND VALVE REPLACED, THEN THE LIFTERS, ROCKERS, TAPPERS, ETC. ON THE RIGHT SIDE (NOT PART OF THE LEFT-SIDE RECALL). WE HAVE HAD DOORS RANDOMLY OPEN, LOCK OR UNLOCK. WINDOWS HAVE OPENED WITHOUT US ACTIVATING THE SWITCH. A FEW TIMES THE ALARM (HORN) HAS SOUNDED AND WE HAVE TO PRESS THE BUTTON ON THE FOB SEVERAL TIMES TO SHUT IT OFF. THE CAR ALSO SHUT OFF ONCE WHILE MY WIFE WAS DRIVING ON THE ROAD, WHICH IS VERY FRIGHTENING. THE TIPMS IN THESE VEHICLE ARE FAULTY, NO MATTER WHAT DODGE SAYS.

AIR BAGS
WHILE DRIVING THROUGH A ROUNDABOUT AT APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE VEHICLE WAS HIT ON THE RIGHT SIDE REAR SLIDING DOOR BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. TWO OF MY CHILDREN WERE IN THE SECOND ROW SEATS. THE RIGHT SIDE DOOR WAS CRUSHED AND THE GLASS WAS SHATTERED AND PROJECTED THROUGH THE VAN TO THE LEFT SIDE. THE SIDE CURTAIN AIR BAGS NEVER DEPLOYED. THE AIR BAG LIGHT WAS NOT ON, SO THERE WAS NO INDICATION OF A FAULT. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED.

POWER TRAIN
CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS NOT RESETTING DUE TO P0740 CODE EVEN AFTER CHANGING VALVE BODY AND RELATED SOLENOIDS ON TRANSMISSION. VAN DOES NOT HAVE ANY ISSUES WHILE DRIVING. NO GAS MILEAGE ISSUES. CURRENTLY IT IS ~93K. DEALER IS ALSO NOT SURE. HE SAYS NEED TO OVERHAUL THE TORQUE CONVERTER (COST $1100) THEN HE WILL KNOW IF ANYTHING ELSE IS DAMAGED. IN THAT CASE HE HAS TO REBUILD THE TRANSMISSION (COST $2800). 2ND OPTION TO PUT A REMANUFACTURED TRANSMISSION (COST $3100). I HAVE READ ONLINE THERE IS A ONGOING ISSUE WITH DODGE TRANSMISSIONS (2011 TO 2014 MODELS) WHICH IS NOT BEING RECALLED. MANY A TIMES CHANGING TRANSMISSION DID NOT SOLVE THE ISSUE. MY PERSONAL MECHANIC ALSO SAID HE GOT THIS ISSUE IN MANY OF THE DODGE VANS. WOULD REQUEST NHTSA TO SERIOUSLY CONSIDER THIS INVESTIGATION.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, STEERING
APPARENTLY THIS IS A WIDELY KNOWN PROBLEMS WITH DODGE AND RELATED CHRYSLER VEHICLES ACCORDING TO OUR MECHANIC. BASICALLY THE TIPM--TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE IS BAD AND THIS CAUSES AMONG OTHER SYMPTOMS: VEHICLE NOT STARTING, ISSUES WITH ELECTRIC CONTROLS(LIGHTING), ISSUES WITH FUEL SYSTEM(FUEL PUMP OR RELAY) OUR VEHICLE HAD ISSUES STARTING. ESPECIALLY DURING WINTERTIME THIS HAPPENED. AND HAVING REPLACED THE BATTERY NEW AND ALSO HAVING ENSURED SPARKPLUGS ARE NEW, THOSE ISSUES WERE RULED OUT. STARTER ISSUE ALSO WERE RULED OUT BOTH BY OBVSERVATION AND MECHANIC. THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO HAVE DIFFICULTY AND INTERMITTENT SUCCESSES IN STARTING, UP TO THE POINT THAT IT DIDN'T START ANYMORE ON 12/10/2018. THE STARTER IS TURNING BUT ENGINE DOESN'T START. SO TOOK IT TO THE MECHANIC AND LEARNED THAT THE TIPM IS THE ISSUE. PRIOR TO IT TOTALLY FAILING TO START., IN THE PAST 4 MONTHS, THE VEHICLE HAD STALLED 4 TO 5 TIMES WHILE DRIVING IT ON THE THREAD GOING ABOUT 30 TO 40 MILES AN HOUR WITH TRAFFIC. I REALIZED THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE BASICALLY THE CAR STOPS ALL OF A SUDDEN WHILE DRIVING ON THE ROAD--WITH TRAFFIC. WHEN THIS FAILURE HAPPENS, APPARENTLY NO FUEL GOES INTO THE ENGINE THAT THE VEHICLE COMES TO A HALT. THERE IS NO POWER STEERING AND RADIO OR OTHER--AS IF THE POWER WAS JUST TOTALLY DISCONNECTED. LUCKILY WE WERE ABLE TO STEER THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OFF THE ROAD, USING ITS MOMENTUM. AND AFTER A COUPLE TIMES TURNING ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. AGAIN THE SUDDEN ENGINE STOPPAGE OCCURRED AROUND 5 TIMES AND I WAS ABLE TO RESTART IT AFTER A COUPLE OF TRIES. UNTIL THE VEHICLE WOULD NO LONGER START AT ALL FROM A PARKING LOT. THE REPAIRS COS $1300+ FOR THE TIPM WHICH HAD TO BE DEALER ORDERED AND REPROGRAMMED.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
DIFFICULT TO START. ONCE STARTED DIES. IF POWER IS MAINTAINED AND YOU GET MOVING, WILL DIE WHEN POWER IS REDUCED. IF ON ROAD AND LET OFF POWER TO SLOW DOWN, IT DIES. BAD NEWS IF IN A TRAFFIC SITUATION, ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AS A WARNING. THEN ONE DAY IT WILL START TO ACT NORMAL..... THEN THE "WILL NOT START ROUTINE" STARTS ALL OVER AGAIN. TOOK TO SHOP. NO INDICATORS ON DIAGNOSTICS. PROBLEM WOULD NOT DUPLICATE AT SHOP.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, VISIBILITY/WIPER
I BOUGHT MY 2011 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN CREW IN FEB 2018. IN MARCH MY TIRE SENSORS STARTING GOING OFF, WE REPLACED ALL OF THEM WITH NO LUCK, THE GAUGES WOULD STILL READ THEY WERE OUT. IN APRIL, THE CAMSHAFT SENSOR WENT OUT WHILE WE WERE ON VACATION, AND WE REPLACED IT, IN FLORIDA. IN MAY THE CAMSHAFT SENSOR WENT OUT AGAIN, SHORTLY AFTER HAVING IT REPLACED FOR THE SECOND TIME, BUT GUESS WHAT? IT HAPPENED A 3RD TIME! ONLY A WEEK LATER!!!! SO YET AGAIN, IT WAS REPLACED. OUR VAN WOULD START ACTING POSSESSED. WIPERS WOULD GO OFF WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD & WHILE THEY WERE IN THE OFF POSITION. THE LOCKS WOULD LOCK AND UNLOCK BY THEMSELVES WHILE DRIVING, SEEMED LIKE EVERY TIME IT RAINED OUT WINDOWS WOULD ROLL DOWN BY THEMSELVES OVER NIGHT OR WHILE WE WERE IN A STORE WHILE THE VAN WAS SHUT OFF. IN JUNE THE VAN STARTED STALLING WHILE WE WOULD DRIVE IT. IT WOULD RANDOMLY DIE WHILE IDLING. IN JULY/AUG I HAD MY OIL CHANGED, THE FOLLOWING DAY MY VAN WOULDN'T START. WHILE IN THE MOMENT I THOUGHT THE SHOP HAD DONE SOMETHING TO IT, SINCE I HAD GOTTEN FRUSTRATED WITH THEM THERE, (POOR FELLAS) THAT CLEARLY WAS NOT THE CASE. I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION MY FUEL PUMP HAD WENT OUT, SO I PAID TO HAVE THAT REPLACED. AROUND SEPT THE VAN WOULDN'T START. IT WOULD CRANK BUT NOT START. MY FUEL PUMP WOULD TURN ON, AFTER TURNING THE KEY ON AND OFF SEVERAL TIMES. IN OCT THE FUEL PUMP WOULD RUN WHILE THE VAN WAS OFF, WE HAD TO DISCONNECT THE POSITIVE ON THE BATTERY SO IT WOULDN'T BURN UP. AT THIS POINT, MY VAN WOULDN'T START AT ALL, AND THE VAN ACTED LIKE IT WAS DEAD. I WENT AND BOUGHT A NEW BATTERY, DAY AFTER I REPLACED THAT, MY VAN NEEDED TO BE JUMPED EACH TIME I WANTED TO START IT. TODAY ON OCT 22- IS MY LAST STRAW. THANKS FCA, A MOTHER AND HER TWO YOUNG CHILDREN HAD TO FIND A RIDE HOME BECAUSE IT STALLED AND SHUT DOWN WHILE SITTING IN A DRIVE THRU.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
VAN WON'T START, OR SHUTS OFF RANDOMLY, INCLUDING WHILE DRIVING. WHEN DRIVING, THE ENGINE DIES AND POWER STEERING IS LOST, MAKING CONTROLLED STOPPING DIFFICULT AND UNSAFE. I TESTED FOR TIPM FUEL RELAY PROBLEM USING INFORMATION AVAILABLE ONLINE & FOUND IT FAULTY. HAD TO RIG A BYPASS FROM AUX POWER TERMINAL TO FUEL PUMP FUSE TO POWER FUEL PUMP AT ALL. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE FOR THIS AND OTHER DODGE/CHRYSLER VEHICLES, SOME OF WHICH NHTSA PUSHED FOR RECALL, BUT NOT ALL!!!! THIS NEEDS RECALL RECONSIDERATION, GIVEN HOW COMMON THIS PROBLEM IS ACROSS MULTIPLE OTHER VEHICLES THAT USE THE EXACT SAME TIPM. THERE ARE LITERALLY DOZENS OF VIDEOS AND HUNDREDS OF WEB POSTS COVERING THIS ISSUE, YET NHTSA HAS DONE NOTHING FURTHER, NOR HAS ANY RECALL BEEN PROVIDED FOR. WHEN WILL THIS GET ADDRESSED?

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
OVER THE LAST 6 MONTHS WE HAVE ENCOUNTERED THE FOLLOWING ISSUES: ALL HAVE BEEN A STOPPED POSITION. 3 TIMES THE VAN WOULD NOT START. IT WOULD NOT TURN OVER. THE VAN HAS STARTED TO STALL ON REGULAR BASIS. THE VAN TAKES 2 TO 4 ATTEMPTS TO START. ON OCTOBER 17, 2018, THE VAN WOULD NOT START AT ALL. WE HAD THE VAN TOWED. THEY STATED THERE WAS NO PRESSURE TO THE FUEL PUMP. $900 DOLLARS LATER, THEY STATE THE VAN IS READY. WE GO TO PICK IT UP. THE VAN WOULD NOT START FOR 3 ATTEMPTS. THEN THE VAN STARTED WITH A DIFFERENT KEY. DROVE IT FOR 4 MINUTES AND THEN PARK AND TURNED OFF THE CAR. WENT TO START IT AGAIN, IT KEPT STALLING. IT STALLED ABOUT 5 TIMES. WE SWITCHED BACK TO THE FIRST KEY THAT WOULD NOT START THE CAR. IT ACTUALLY STARTED TWICE. WE LEFT THE VAN WITH THE AUTO REPAIR PLACE. THEY STATED THERE WERE NO ISSUES WITH THE VAN. WE GOT IT BACK ON OCTOBER 18TH. IT HAS ONLY STARTED ONE TIME SINCE THEN THE FIRST TRY. IT HAS STALLED OCCASIONALLY SINCE THEN. ONCE ON OCT 21ST, THE BRAKING SYSTEM DID NOT ENGAGE WHILE THE VAN WAS BEING BACK OUT. ONCE BEFORE THE ISSUES STARTED TO HAPPEN, THE GAS PUMP DID NOT STOP AND THE FUEL OVER FLOWED.

POWER TRAIN
TAMARA ARE ALL I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM THE HOSPITAL AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE VAN WOULD NOT GO OVER 20 MPH. WE WERE ON THE HIGHWAY. AND IT WAS WITHOUT WARNING. I HAD TO PULL OVER AT A SERVICE STATION AND WAIT 45 MINS FOR SOMEONE TO COME. I HAD IT TOWED TO MY HOUSE THE NEXT DAY WHICH COST 150 DOLLARS. THEN I TRIED TO TAKE IT TO A SHOP TO BE FIXED BUT AFTER 1.5 WEEKS THEY SAY IT WOULD BE 2500 TO FIX. WE DIDN'T HAVE THAT BECAUSE MY HUSBAND WAS IN THE HOSPITAL FOR HEART FAILURE. SO I HAD TO GO GET ANOTHER CAR AND AM WAITING FOR THE VAN TO BE FIXED. I AM PREGNANT AND HAD MY DAUGHTER WITH ME ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD IN A GAS STATION. WHICH WAS TERRIBLE.
