THE PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR BECOMES STUCK SHUT AND UNABLE TO OPEN. IN THE EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY WE WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO QUICKLY GET A CHILD OUT FROM THAT SIDE. THIS IS NOT A FAILURE OF POWER DOORS. THE DOOR PHYSICALLY WON'T OPEN REGARDLESS OF BEING UNLOCKED.

WEEK AFTER WEEK I WAIT TO HAVE THE RECALL WORK DONE ON MY VEHICLE, AND THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP REPEATEDLY EXPLAINS THAT THE REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE UNAVAILABLE FROM THE MAKER. CHRYSLER CORPORATE OFFICES CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS ARE UNAVAILABLE AND THAT THERE IS A LONG LIST OF PEOPLE WAITING FOR THEIR PARTS. WITH THIS EXTREMELY UNSAFE CONDITION OF THE IGNITION SWITCH CUTTING OFF AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKING AND LACK OF POWER BREAKS, IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE THAT CHRYSLER HAS SPENT NEARLY A YEAR SINCE THE INITIAL COMPLAINT AND STILL CANNOT CORRECT THE ISSUE. THE RECALL IS OUT, BUT IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO GET THE PROBLEM FIXED BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT SUPPLYING PARTS TO THEIR DEALERSHIPS.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
ON 7/03/2015 MY 2011 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN WITH 46000 MILES WAS HAVING STARTING, STALLING AND IDLE ISSUES. THROTTLE BODY WAS REPAIRED BY SHOP AND REFUNDED MONEY BECAUSE CAR STILL HAD SAME ISSUES. THE MECHANIC SAID TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE IT WAS NOT KICKING OUT ANY CODES I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND HAD TO WAIT FOR AN APPT UNTIL AUG 4TH. THE CAR WAS ACTING UP SO I WENT IN WITHOUT AN APPOINTMENT ON 07/21/15 THEY SAID BECAUSE THE ISSUE WAS SO INTERMITTENT THAT I WOULD HAVE TO LEAVE THE CAR FOR A FEW DAYS. ON 07/22/15 THE DEALERSHIP CALLED AND SAID THEY FOUND TWO ISSUES WITH THE VAN 1ST IT NEEDED THE LEFT CYLINDER HEAD REPLACED AND 2ND THE TIPM UNIT WAS BAD. THE GOOD NEWS WAS THE CYLINDER HEAD WHICH WOULD HAVE COST $2000 WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THE BAD NEWS WAS THE TIPM ( TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE) WAS GOING TO COST $1100 TO FIX. THE WHOLE POINT OF BUYING A NEWER CAR WAS TO NOT HAVE THESE HUGE REPAIR BILLS. BUT IN ONE SHOT THIS VAN JUST COST $3600 IN REPAIRS THAT IS JUST INSANE, WHO HAS THIS KIND OF MONEY LAYING AROUND. THE SECOND THIS TIPM UNIT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH A LOT OF OTHER CARS MANUFACTURED BY CHRYSLER ARE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE. I COULD NOT IMAGINE BEING STRANDED SOMEWHERE WITH MY FIVE CHILDREN OR GOD FORBID STALLING OUT WHILE DRIVING IT COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. THIS TIPM SHOULD BE RECALLED NOT HAPPY WITH OUR CHOICE IN THIS VEHICLE ON TOP OF EVERYTHING ELSE WRONG WITH THIS CAR I HAVE A HEAD AND TAIL LIGHT THAT ARE GETTING WATER INTO THEM. I SAY ONCE AGAIN THIS CAR IS 4 YEARS OLD AND HAS A WHOLE HECK OF A LOT OF PROBLEMS. UPDATED 09/09/15*LJ UPDATED 12/05/2017*CN

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
WE STARTED SMELLING AN ODD SMELL COMING FROM THE A/C VENTS ON 7/4/15. AFTER A FEW DAYS THE SMELL WENT AWAY AND WE THOUGHT NOTHING OF IT. 7/8/15 MULTIPLE LIGHTS SHOW UP AFTER STARTING THE VAN..ABS, BRAKES, TRACTION CONTROL, ETC. TWO DAYS LATER THESE LIGHTS WENT AWAY. 7/18/15 WE GOT INTO THE VAN AND A/C IN THE BACK WAS BLOWING, BUT THE FRONT WASN'T BLOWING AT ALL. TURNED IT ON WHILE DRIVING AND IT WORKED AGAIN. THE NEXT DAY WHEN I WENT TO WORK THE BLOWER WAS NOT BLOWING ANYMORE, BUT WORKED ON THE WAY HOME. AFTER THAT SECOND DAY IT HAS CONSISTENTLY WORKED. THIS MORNING WHEN I HIT THE UNLOCK BUTTON ON THE KEYFOB THE HORN STARTED HONKING, WINDSHIELD WIPERS WENT ON, AND WIPER FLUID WAS SQUIRTING OUT. I GOT INTO THE VAN AND STARTED IT AND EVERYTHING STOPPED. I DROVE THE 20 MINUTE DRIVE HOME FROM WORK WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS. LATER THAT DAY I GOT BACK INTO THE VAN TO DRIVE AND EVERYTHING WAS STILL NORMAL EXCEPT I HAD A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT SO I PLANNED ON GETTING THAT CHECKED WHILE I WAS OUT. I WAS PARKED AT A RESIDENCE WITH THE VAN STILL ON WHEN THE SAME HORN/WIPER/WIPER FLUID PROBLEM STARTED UP AGAIN. I TURNED OFF THE VAN AND IT KEPT GOING. I PULLED FUSES OUT FOR THE HORN/WIPERS/FLUID AND COULD STILL HEAR THINGS IN THE BOX CLICKING. THIS TIME THE DOOR LOCKS WERE LOCKING BY THEMSELVES AND THE LIGHTS (BOTH INSIDE AND OUT) WERE TURNING OFF AND ON. I DROVE TO THE CLOSES AUTO PARTS STORE AND WAS TOLD THERE WERE 2 CODES COMING UP. IT GAVE ME P0685 (ASD RELAY CIRCUIT FAILURE) AND P0883 (TCM POWER INPUT HIGH). AFTER DOING SOME ONLINE RESEARCH IT SEEMS I HAVE TO HAVE MY TIPM REPLACED AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM. I'M FRUSTRATED AT THE AMOUNT OF MONEY I KEEP HAVING TO PUT INTO THIS VAN. RIGHT NOW MY VAN IS SITTING IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE WITH THE BATTERY DISCONNECTED UNTIL I CAN TAKE IT IN TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT. I'M REALLY LUCKY THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN ON MY DRIVE TO/FROM WORK.

SERVICE BRAKES, STEERING
PART 2 I'VE READ ON HERE THAT GATES HAS A BELT/PULLEY FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM. IF THEY HAVE ONE, CHRYSLER CAN MAKE ONE. THIS IS A DANGEROUS PROBLEM THAT CAN HAPPEN ANY TIME TO MANY DODGE VANS, IT RESULTS IN OTHER DAMAGES, SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER STEERING CONTROL, POSSIBLE INJURY EVEN DEATH TO MANY PEOPLE AT ONE TIME. MANY OTHER VEHICLES HAVE SERPENTINE BELTS WITHOUT THIS PROBLEM SO IT CAN BE FIXED. IT'S A REPEATED DESIGN FLAW & SHOULD BE CORRECTED IMMEDIATELY. A NTSB RULE GOES SOMETHING LIKE THIS "A COMPANY IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY FORESEEABLE PROBLEMS IN THEIR PRODUCT" THE SAME GOES FOR THE BRAKE LINES CORRODING ENOUGH FOR FAILURE TO OCCUR IN JUST A FEW YEARS, THIS IS ALSO UNACCEPTABLE. THIS IS A $29,850 VEHICLE NOT A $2,000 1967 VOLKSWAGEN BEETLE, MY BEETLE HAS THE ORIGINAL BREAK LINES. AND IN GOOD SHAPE. ALL BREAK LINES ARE TO BE STAINLESS STEEL TO RESIST RUST AND CORROSION. THIS IS PURELY LACK OF QUALITY IN MATERIALS USED TO MAKE THESE LINES AND THE COMPANY ALSO SHOULD BE MADE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM BY WARNING ALL OWNERS ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND REPLACING ALL DEFECTABLE LINES WITH GOOD QUALITY LINES.

SERVICE BRAKES, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, SUSPENSION
PART 1 1/2 THE GAS LINE DECAYING AND THE SUSPENSION STRUT MOUNTS RUSTING AWAY, BOTH OF THESE ARE DEADLY, A RUSTY/CORRODED BREAK LINE WILL JUST LEAK A DROP AT THE TIME, MOST PEOPLE JUST REFILL THE FLUID RESERVOIR AND NEVER THINK ABOUT AGAIN, EVENTUALLY THE BREAK LINE FAILS ALL AT ONCE, THIS IS BECAUSE YOU ACTUALLY PUT MORE PRESSURE ON THE LINES THAN USUAL AND THE WEAK SPOT RUPTURES LIKE A WEAK SPOT IN A BALLOON WOULD. THAT MEANS THAT YOU WERE IN A BAD SITUATION ALREADY AND NOW YOU DON'T HAVE ANY BREAKING POWER AT ALL. WHAT DO YOU THINK HAPPENS NEXT??? ALL BREAK LINES ARE STAINLESS STEAL SO AS TO RESIST RUST AND CORROSION, THE ONLY REASON A BREAK LINE FAILS IN THIS LITTLE AMOUNT OF TIME IS BECAUSE THE MANUFACTURE IS PRODUCING AN INFERIOR PRODUCT AND SHOULD HAVE ALREADY BEEN MADE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. NOW,, THE STRUT MOUNTS, AS SOON AS THE COMPANY FOUND OUT THAT THEY HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE MOUNTS RUSTING THEY SHOULD HAVE RECALLED THE VEHICLES AND SPRAYED $10 WORTH OF UNDERCOATING OVER THE PARTS AFTER REMOVING THE RUST TO STOP ANY MORE RUST FROM FORMING. IF THE STRUT MOUNT IS RUSTED ENOUGH, IT CAN FAIL AT ANY TIME "USUALLY WHEN AT HIGHER SPEEDS AND YOU HIT A BUMP IN THE ROAD,, THAT SENDS AN EXTRA AMOUNT OF FORCE TO THE SUSPENSION. THE STRUT COMES UP THROUGH THE HOOD AND THE WHEEL MAY GO ANY WAY AND HIT ANY PART OF THE WHEEL WELL AND SUSPENSION THE AXLE MAY COME OUT OF THE WHEEL OR TRANSMISSION , ALL OF THAT MEANS YOU MAY HAVE TOTAL LOSE OF BREAKS AND OR STEERING. ALL 3 OF THESE PROBLEMS COULD HAVE EASILY AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN CORRECTED WHEN FIRST REALIZED MANY YEARS AGO, INSTEAD THEY KEPT RIGHT ON MANUFACTURING VEHICLES THE SAME WAY WITH THE SAME IMPERFECTIONS AND IF YOU GO TO A DEALER TODAY WITH EITHER OF THESE PROBLEMS THEY WILL SAY IT IS THE FIRST TIME THEY HAVE HERD OF IT, IT OUT OF WARRANTY, ETC. AND WILL NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT FIXING IT UNLESS WE PAY
