ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING, VISIBILITY/WIPER
I went to turn on my headlights, and they didn't come on. All the other lights work. Parking, dash, tail, and the high beam indicator. But no headlights. Also l read that people complained about windshield washer' not working. I tried mine and they also didn't work. I see there is a recall on same problem with the 2005 - 2007 Chrysler town and country limited and they are under a recall. Mine is a 2004 T & Country limited.it My mechanic has checked all the fuses and relay's and can't find anything wrong except for the lights and wind washers not working. I called my Chrysler dealership and they acted like they never heard of the problem. But that's O K with them because they don't have to drive a car without headlights.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
PURCHASED VAN USED FROM A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP IN MAY OF 2010. REPORTED WITHIN DAYS TO DEALERSHIP THAT VAN HAD A STUTTER WHEN AT IDLE. THEY GAVE IT A TUNE UP BUT IT DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE. WARRANTY PURCHASED WITH VAN DID NOT COVER THE FUEL SYSTEM. STUTTERING CONTINUED AND BECAME WORSE AS THE YEARS WENT BY. VAN BEGAN TO DIE WHEN IDLING, ESPECIALLY IF TURNING LEFT WHICH PUT US IN DANGER A NUMBER OF TIMES. ALSO, WE SMELLED FUEL. WE REPLACED THE TANK IN 2013. HOWEVER, OUR MECHANIC INFORMED US AT THE TIME THAT IT HAD A DESIGN FLAW AND THE SAME ISSUES WOULD OCCUR IN A MATTER OF TIME. TANK WAS FINE FOR TWO YEARS. WITHIN A MONTH OF THE WARRANTY EXPIRING IT BEGAN TO STUTTER AT IDLE AGAIN. IT HELPS TO NOT FILL THE TANK COMPLETELY. HOWEVER, IT SMELLS OF FUEL AND CONTINUES TO STUTTER AT IDLE. WE WILL NOT SPEND ANOTHER $1500 TO REPLACE THE TANK AS WITH THE DESIGN FLAW THE ISSUE WILL JUST REOCCUR. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO RECALL THE GAS TANK AND CREATE A DESIGN FREE OF FAULTS.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THIS TIME I WAS HEADING DOWN WITH MY FAMILY FROM ONE OF THE HIGHEST SPOTS AT YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK. MY SPEED WAS ABOUT 45 MPH AND TWO LANE ROAD WITH LOT OF TURNS. NO OTHER TRAFFIC IN FRONT OR BEHIND ME. I TURNED HIGH BEAMS ON AND THERE WE GO, HEADLIGHTS GONE. I PULLED QUICKLY FOG LIGHTS ON TO HAVE SOME LIGHTS. NO OTHER OPTIONS THAN CONTINUE TO THE NEXT PLACE WHERE I COULD PULL CAR TO SIDE OF THE ROAD. WHEN STOPPED I CHECKED IF KNOCKING ECM WORKS BUT IT DIDN'T, NORMALLY IT DOES. I RELEASED FOUR SCREWS AND PULLED ECM OUT. INSTALLED MY SPARE ECM, NO LIGHTS. I INSTALLED THE OLD ECM MODULE BACK AND WIGGLED IT AND LIGHTS CAME ON. I DIDN'T CHECK ON THE SPOT THAT WOULD I HAVE HIGH BEAMS. 1 HOUR LATER WHEN WE GOT TO COTTAGE WE RENTED I WANTED TO KNOW WHAT HAPPEN THIS TIME WHEN TURNING HIGH BEAMS ON. LIGHTS GONE AGAIN. THIS TIME KNOCKING ECM MODULE HELPED. I TESTED HIGH BEAM AND LOW BEAMS MULTIPLE TIMES AND NO ISSUES. LOOSING HEAD LIGHT HAVE HAPPEN WITH THIS VEHICLE BEFORE HOWEVER THE ISSUE IS THAT IT IS INTERMITTENT. I HAVEN'T FOUND ANY LOGIC HOW TO REPEAT IT WHAT MAKES IT SCARY / UNCOMFORTABLE.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
CAR STALLS WHEN FULL GAS TANK. DOESN'T HAPPEN EVERY TIME, BUT IT'S ALWAYS WHEN FULL. MAKES VERY UNSAFE CONDITION. I'VE LEARNED NOT TO MAKE LEFT TURNS IN FIRST 5 MINUTES AFTER FILLING, OR BEST NOT TO FILL. IT'S A COMMON PROBLEM WHEN LOOKING ONLINE, CHRYSLER REPLACES TANK FOR VALVE ON TANK FOR SOME PEOPLE. THEY REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING FOR ME, BUT OFFER A $1500 FIX. IT TRULY IS A WIDESPREAD SAFETY HAZZARD.
