GOT VEHICLE OUT OF PARK AND DROVE HOME. VEHICLE WAS PARKED FOR A FEW DAYS. TRIED TO START. DEAD BATTERY. CHARGED BATTERY AND STARTED VEHICLE. VEHICLE WOULD NOT TURN OFF EVEN WITH IGNITION KEY REMOVED. VEHICLE OVERHEATED TO MAX TEMPERATURE ON GAUGE, BEGAN TO STEAM AND SPILLED A LOT OF COOLANT. VERY AFRAID VEHICLE WOULD CATCH FIRE. CALLED AAA AND TOW TRUCK DRIVER LOCATED AND REMOVED FUSE TO SHUT DOWN RUNNING VEHICLE. HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO CHRYSLER DODGE DEALERSHIP. AFTER A WEEK STILL HAVE NOT HEARD FROM DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT OR CHRYSLER. THE VEHICLE BEING STUCK WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING EVEN WITH IGNITION KEY REMOVED AND SUBSEQUENT RAPID OVERHEATING AND LOSS OF COOLANT PRESENTED AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION WITH THE STRONG POTENTIAL FOR A VEHICLE FIRE. THE TPMS LIGHT MALFUNCTION LEAVES THE DRIVER UNABLE TO DETERMINE IF THERE REALLY IS AN UNDERINFLATED TIRE AND/OR TIRES. THE ESC LIGHT MALFUNCTION LEAVES THE DRIVER UNABLE TO USE THIS FUNCTION FOR IMPROVED THE VEHICLE'S TRACTION IN VATIOUS SITUATIONS.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
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.
