ENGINE
VAN WAS PARKED IN OUR GARAGE. WE GOT IN TO GO TO CHURCH AND THE VAN WOULD NOT START!! I PUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND IT WAS ROCK-HARD AND WHEN I TURNED THE KEY IT JUST CLICKED AND TRIED TO START THEN DIED. I CONTINUED TO TRY TO START BY MOVING THE SHIFT LEVER/HITTING THE BRAKE/TURNING THE KEY AND THE VAN STARTED AND WE WENT TO CHURCH. TODAY, 10/29/14, I PARKED MY VAN AT WINN-DIXIE AND WENT INSIDE TO SHOP. WHEN I RETURNED TO LEAVE THE SAME SYMPTOMS EXHIBITED AND FINALLY THE VAN STARTED. I CALLED MY DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT IT MAY BE ASSOCIATED WITH THE RECALL ON MY KEY FOB ELECTRONIC SHIFTER RECALL, BUT THERE WERE NO PARTS AVAILABLE YET. I WAS ALSO ASKED IF THERE WAS AN ENGINE LIGHT THAT WENT ON AND I SAID NO. I WAS TOLD THAT THEN THEY COULD NOT CHECK ON THEIR COMPUTERS FOR THE PROBLEM UNLESS THE "CHECK ENGINE LIGHT" HAD EXHIBITED. SO, HERE I AM--------------------WHAT SHOULD I DO????? *TR

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
IN MAY 2014, AT APPROXIMATELY 55MPH, AFTER REFUELING AND DRIVEN 50 MILES. THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. STOPPED VEHICLE AND CHECKED EVERYTHING THAT I COULD CHECK, AS I HAD JUST HAD IT SERVICED APPROX. 300 MILES PRIOR. CONTINUED ON TRIP, AFTER SPENDING NIGHT IN MOTEL, TOOK VEHICLE TO REPAIR FACILITY AND THEY DID DIAGNOSTICS...CAME UP WITH CODE 461, WHICH WAS FUEL LEVER SENSOR IN GAS TANK. CONTINUED ON TRIP, (1300 MILES), AFTER THAT TWO TIMES WHEN I HAD FILLED UP WITH GAS AGAIN THE VEHICLE DIED WITHIN 2 MILES...NO ENGINE LIGHT EVER CAME BACK ON. THIS CONTINUED THROUGHOUT THE SUMMER, OCCURRING 80% OF THE TIME I REFUELED...TOOK TO DEALER AS I HAVE EXTENDED WARRANTY, THEY ARE LOOKING INTO IT, BUT SAID BECAUSE THE ENGINE LIGHT DOESN'T COME BACK ON, THEY CAN'T EVALUATE IT. READ SOMEWHERE SINCE I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER, THAT IF I DON'T FILL THE TANK UP FULLY, THAT WILL CURE THE PROBLEM? THE ENGINE DYING HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING LESS THAN 20MPH, SO FAR...COULD BE A PROBLEM PULLING OUT IN TRAFFIC? THIS IS NOW OCTOBER, STILL EXPERIENCING PROBLEM. *TR

ENGINE
OUR 2010 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN IS OVER CONSUMING OIL. WE HAVE A NORMAL OIL CHANGE DONE AND BEFORE WE GET TO THE 3000 MILES WHEN THE NEXT ONE IS TO BE DONE THE VAN IS DRY/OUT OF OIL! THE LIGHT COMES ON THE DASH INDICATING THERE IS NO OIL AND THE OIL LEVEL IN THE VAN DOES NOT EVEN REACH THE DIP STICK, IT IS COMPLETELY DRY. WE TOOK THE VAN IN APRIL 2014 TO ZEIGLER IN DOWNERS GROVE, IL AND THEY HAD US COME BACK EVERY 1000 MILES TO CHECK AGAIN, EACH TIME IT WAS AT LEAST 1.5 OR SO QUARTS LOW. THEY WOULD TOP IT OFF AND SAY COME BACK IN 1000 MILES. THAT IS NOT NORMAL A VEHICLE SHOULD NOT KEEP NEEDING OIL TO BE ADDED AND IF NO OIL IS ADDED IT IS EMPTY BEFORE YOU HAVE DRIVEN 3000 MILES. SINCE THE DEALER WAS NO HELP SAYING IT IS NORMAL, WHICH THIS IS NOT, I HAVE NEVER HAD TO ADD OIL TO ANY OF MY VEHICLES BETWEEN OIL CHANGES, TODAY WE CALLED CHRYSLER TO HANDLE THE PROBLEM...ALL CHRYSLER WOULD DO WAS CALL THE DEALER WHO TOLD THEM THIS IS NORMAL AND SAID THAT THEY HAVE TO SIDE WITH THE DEALER AND NOT FIX THE PROBLEM...WE PAID FOR AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THIS VAN AND IT NEEDS TO BE FIXED ASAP BEFORE THE WARRANTY IS UP!!!! *TR

THE VEHICLE REFUSED TO START. THERE WAS NO ELECTRICS AND THE ENGINE WOULD NOT TURN OVER. NO LIGHTS ON THE DASH. THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A TIPM FAILURE, FOR WHICH DODGE ARE QUOTING 10 WEEKS FOR A REPLACEMENT AND REFUSING TO PROVIDE ANY SUPPORT OR HIRE CAR FOR WHAT IS A KNOWN SYSTEMIC FAULT WITH DODGE / CHRYSLER VEHICLES. THEY ARE BASICALLY ABSOLVING ALL RESPONSIBILITY FROM PRODUCING A PART WHICH IS NOT FIT FOR PURPOSE. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
FILLED FUEL TANK RIGHT OFF I24 IN TN. CAR STALLED ON ENTRANCE RAMP TO HIGHWAY. DRIFTED TO SIDE AND ENGINE RESTARTED QUICKLY. THIS NOW HAPPENS ALMOST EVERY TIME THE TANK IS FILLED. AROUND TOWN I CAN COPE BY NOT FILLING THE TANK, BUT VERY INCONVENIENT AND VERY DANGEROUS ON TRIPS ESPECIALLY ON HIGHWAYS. WE ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT OVERFILLING THE TANK, BUT JUST FILLING TO POINT WHEN PUMP SHUTS OFF. WHEN ENGINE STALLS, NOT ONLY IS THERE AN IMMEDIATE LOSS OF MOMENTUM, THE POWER STEERING SYSTEM QUITS, BUT THE BRAKES BECOME USELESS. EVERY TIME THIS HAPPENS, I JUST WAIT FOR SOMEONE BEHIND ME TO NOT SLOW DOWN IN TIME AND REAR-END ME. LUCKILY, I HAVE NOT BEEN IN THE FAST OR MIDDLE LANE WHEN IT STALLS, BECAUSE OF POSSIBLY NOT BEING ABLE TO GET TO THE SHOULDER TO RESTART IT. I AM ALSO PARANOID THAT IF I TRY TO MESS WITH PUTTING IT INTO NEUTRAL AND FOOLING AROUND WITH THE KEY, I WILL BECOME A VERY DISTRACTED DRIVER. CHRYSLER'S ANSWER IS TO REPLACE FUEL TANK AT A COST OF $1200. IF I COULD AFFORD THAT THEN I WOULDN'T BE DRIVING A 2006 AUTOMOBILE. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, STEERING, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
WAS STUCK WITH NO WAY TO START VEHICLE BECAUSE PLASTIC FOB KEY WAS CRACKED AND WOULDN'T START VAN. THERE'S A RECALL ON THE PLASTIC IGNITION MODULE BUT PARTS ARE NOT YET AVAILABLE AND THIS RECALL IS FROM JUNE 2014. THE IGNITION SWITCH HAS MOVED A FEW TIMES WHILE I WAS DRIVING FROM ON TO ACC. CAUSING HARD BRAKES AND STEERING. LUCKILY IT WAS AT LOW SPEEDS AND NO TRAFFIC AROUND. CALLED DEALER TO SEE IF THERE'S A WAY TO START WITH METAL DOOR KEY AND I WAS TOLD NO. ALSO DEALER WANTS TO CHARGE ME TO FIX EVEN THOUGH THERE'S A RECALL OUT ON IT. DODGE IS THE CHEAPEST POS AND UNSAFE CARS PERIOD !!! *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THIS IS ACTUALLY MY MOTHER'S VAN AND A VAN THAT I HAD PREVIOUSLY OWNED. IT SEEMS THAT THESE VEHICLES SEEM TO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE SECURITY SYSTEM NOT DISARMING AS YOU TRY TO ENTER THE VEHICLE. YOU CAN UNLOCK THE DOORS FROM THE OUTSIDE, BUT AS SOON AS YOU GET IN THE VEHICLE AND TRY TO START IT, IT IMMEDIATELY SHUTS BACK DOWN AS A SECURITY PRECAUTION. A SIMPLE SMACK ON THE DASH CURES IT RIGHT UP, BUT BEING AS HOW IT'S MY MOTHER'S VAN NOW; SHE DOESN'T HAVE THE STRENGTH TO SIMPLY "SMACK" THE DASH AND GET EVERYTHING WORKING AGAIN. IT SEEMS AS THOUGH, THIS IS NOT THE ONLY KNOWN ISSUE. I HAVE READ ABOUT IT THROUGH SEVERAL DIFFERENT PEOPLE AND HAVE EXPERIENCED IT MYSELF ON TWO SEPARATE VANS. I HONESTLY BELIEVE THAT DAIMLER/CHRYSLER SHOULD ADDRESS THIS ISSUE AND NOT HAVE THE CONSUMER FIX IT, SEEING AS HOW IT IS AND ISSUE THAT'S BURIED IN THE DASHBOARD AND NOT OUT IN PLAIN SIGHT, LIKE SOME MECHANICAL ISSUES. THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM WITH THE CLOCK SPRING IN THE STEERING WHEEL, BECAUSE IT COULD SET OFF THE AIRBAG AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT. WELL, WITH ME HAVING TO SMACK THE DASH SEVERAL DIFFERENT TIMES, HER SPEEDOMETER IS OFF BY 50 MPH NOW. I AM HOPING FOR A RECALL NOTICE ON THIS ISSUE, DUE TO THE FACT THAT ONE MORE GOOD WHACK COULD SET OFF THE AIRBAG AND REALLY INJURY SOMEBODY. THANK YOU. *TR

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
WHILE DRIVING BETWEEN 30 AND 35 MILES PER HOUR, AT AROUND 7:40PM, THE LOW BEAMS ON MY 2010 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN WENT COMPLETELY OFF. I PULLED OVER AND WAS UNABLE TO GET THEM BACK ON AND HAD TO DRIVE WITH MY HIGH BEAMS ON. TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC, EXPLAINED TO HIM EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED, BUT WHEN HE WENT TO CHECK THEM THEY TURNED ON AND HE FOUND NO VISIBLE PROBLEMS. THE MECHANIC TOLD US THAT HE HAD RESEARCHED ONLINE WHAT THE PROBLEM COULD BE AND FOUND THAT THERE WERE MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE. I AM NOW AFRAID TO DRIVE AT NIGHT OR IN THE RAIN AFTER SEEING ALL THE COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT THIS SAME PROBLEM. I CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT COULD HAPPEN DRIVING AT NIGHT TIME ON A CURVY ROAD AND THE LIGHTS FAIL. *TR

AIR BAGS, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), UNKNOWN OR OTHER
MY VAN SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC ON NORTH ROXBORO ROAD ON THE WAY TO NORTHERN HIGH SCHOOL. I WAS PROTECTED UNTIL AAA CAME AND TOWED MY CAR TO THE DEALER. I RENTED A CAR AND I PAID FOR THE 1ST WEEK OF THE RENTAL AND THE OTHER WEEK WAS CARED FOR BY THE DEALER. IT IS UNKNOWN WHAT WAS WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE AT THIS POINT IN TIME. ONCE THIS HAPPENED, A FEW MONTHS LATER THE CAR BEGAN TO CUT OFF AT THE GAS STATION THE DAY BEFORE MY FAMILY WAS ABOUT TO TRAVEL OUT OF TOWN. ONCE IT CUT OFF WE HAD TO DRIVE ANOTHER CAR THAT WAS NOT WORKING WELL TO OUR DESTINATION. AAA JUMP STARTED MY VAN IN ORDER FOR ME TO GET BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE ADVISED ME THAT I NEEDED A NEW BATTERY, HOWEVER THE DEALERSHIP I WAS TOLD THAT IF THE BATTERY WAS LOW AND I RECEIVED A JUMP START I SHOULD DRIVE THE CAR. I TRIED AND TURNED AROUND ONCE AGAIN TO THE DEALERSHIP. I WAITED 30 MINUTES BEFORE SOMEONE WAS ABLE TO PUSH MY VAN INTO THE LOT. MY CAR WAS HELD MOST OF THE DAY AND AT THE END OF THE DAY THEY TOLD ME I NEEDED A BATTERY. I CALLED MY HUSBAND TO DISCUSS THE MATTER, HE WANTED TO DISCUSS THE INFORMATION WITH THEM AND THEY WERE ASKING FOR A LARGE AMOUNT OF MONEY TO FIX NOT ONLY THE BATTERY, BUT THE ALTERNATOR AS WELL. THE ALTERNATOR WAS NOT THE PROBLEM I WAS TOLD ORIGINALLY. I HAD ONLY BROUGHT THE CAR TO THEIR LOCATION. THEY WANTED ALMOST A $1000.00 TO FIX MY VAN. I HAD AAA TOW MY VAN AWAY, AAA BROUGHT ME A NEW BATTERY AND THEY TESTED AND FOUND THAT THE ALTERNATOR WAS THE MAIN SOURCE OF MY PROBLEMS. THE LAST TIME MY VAN SHUT OFF IT HAD ALL OF THE LIGHTS ON. THE VOLTAGE LIGHT, THE ABS BRAKE LIGHTS, THE OIL LIGHTS, THE AIR BAG LIGHTS AND THE BATTERY LIGHT. IT HAS BEEN IN AND OUT OF COMMISSION. I HAD AT LEAST 3 INCIDENCES THAT INVOLVED MY CHILDREN AND FEEL THAT OUR LIVES WERE AT STAKE. I NEED TO HAVE A RESOLUTION IN THIS MATTER WITHOUT BEING REQUIRED TO BUY A NEW PLAN. I FEEL CHEATED. *TR

RECALL #P25/NHTSA 14V-234 WHY IS IT TAKING SO LONG TO GET THIS REPLACEMENT DONE? I GOT THE FIRST NOTICE IN MAY 2014 AND HAVE NOT HEARD A THING SINCE. I HAVE CALLED THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES AND EVEN STOPPED BY, ALSO NO OTHER INFORMATION IN THE MAIL. I REALIZE THAT THE DEALER CAN DISCONNECT THE SWITCH SO THAT THE WINDOWS DO NOT FUNCTION BUT, AS I TOLD THE DEALER, I TRAVEL WITH MY DOGS AND SOMETIMES HAVE TO LEAVE THEM IN THEIR CRATES IN THE VAN OVERNIGHT AT MOTELS (DON'T ALLOW THE IN THE ROOMS) AND THE FEW THAT DO ALLOW DOGS IN ROOMS, CHARGE AN ADDITIONAL FEE. FACT IS-- I NEED TO HAVE PROPER VENTILATION FOR THEM. I PURCHASED THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE BECAUSE OF THE VENTILATION THE WINDOWS PROVIDE. THIS IS A REAL INCONVENIENCE, ESPECIALLY FOR THIS LENGTH OF TIME. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I WAS DRIVING EASTBOUND ON THE 10 FWY , ABOUT 40MPH AND IN THE FIRST LANE BECAUSE I HAD JUST GOT ON FREEWAY ABOUT 1 1/2 AGO AND WHILE I WAS DRIVING I FELT THE PEDDLE LOSE POWER SO I TRIED TO ACCELERATE BY PUSHING A LITTLE HARDER AND I FELT THE CAR GAINING NO SPEED ONLY SLOWING DOWN THEN I LOOK AT GAUGES AND ALL GAUGES WERE NON FUNCTIONAL AS IF THE CAR WAS OFF, IT WAS THEN THAT I NOTICED I HAD NO CONTROL IN STEERING EITHER THE CAR WAS JUST COMPLETELY DIED. AS I COASTED TO A STOP JUST A LITTLE BETWEEN THE FIRST LANE AND EMERGENCY LANE I WAS ABLE TO PUT THE CAR INTO PARK, QUICKLY, AND TURN THE KEY BACK TO THE ON POSITION AS THEN I ALSO NOTICED THE KEY WAS NOT IN ON POSITION. VERY SCARY AND THAT'S THE WHOLE REASON I STARTED TO LOOK INTO THIS MATTER AND FOUND OUT ABOUT THIS RECALL. I WILL PROVIDE VIN NUMBER UPON REQUEST IF NEEDED.
