MY 2011 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN HAS STALLED OUT ON US 3 TIMES ON THE FREEWAY WITH NO WARNING. AFTER WAITING GOT ABOUT 40MIN. TO AN HOUR IT STARTS RIGHT UP LIKE THERE'S NO PROBLEM. RECENTLY THE VAN STALLED OUT WHILE I WAS TOWING MY SMALL CAMPER. WHEN I TAKE IT TO GET CHECKED OUT NO PROBLEM CAN EVER BE FOUND. THIS IS SO DANGEROUS AND THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS. THIS OTHER ARTICLE I RECENTLY READ AT WWW.CHRYSLERPROBLEMS.COM/TRENDS/TIPM/ ACTUALLY SAYS 2011 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN HAS THIS ISSUE MOSTLY THAN OTHER YEARS. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE. I HAVE READ MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ONLINE OF MANY MANY PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AND THIS IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE. THE PART IS VERY EXPENSIVE FOR US TO FIX WHEN THE COMPANY KNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. THANKS,

2010 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN SXT 4.0L HAS STALLED 4 TIMES WHILE DRIVING SPEEDS OF 15MPH, 30MPH AND TWICE AT 45MPH. WHEN THE VEHICLE STALLS YOU LOSE POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES. THE RADIO STILL WORKS AND THE ONLY THING THAT APPEARS ON INSTRUMENT PANEL IS THE STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED I PULLED OVER AND RESTARTED THE CAR, NOW I SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL AND RESTART. I HAVE HAD 2 RECALLS COMPLETED ON IGNITION SWITCH AND I ONLY USE THE ONE KEY SO IT IS NOT THE WEIGHT OF KEY CHAIN. THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE A FAMILY CAR AND NOW MY WIFE WILL NOT DRIVE FOR FEAR OF THIS HAPPENING WITH KIDS IN VEHICLE AND CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. COME ON CHRYSLER/DODGE YOUR BETTER THAN THIS... WELL AT LEAST I THOUGHT YOU WERE! I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT BUT I KNOW I WILL GET A RUN AROUND AND NO ONE WILL HAVE EVERY HEARD ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, BUT ITS ALL OVER EVERY FORUM DISCUSSION.

2012 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN STALLED WHEN DRIVING AND I LOST THE STEERING.THIS CAN BE LIVE THREATENING!! NO CODES COME UP WHEN TRYING TO DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE. MECHANIC TRIED TO DUPLICATE THE STALLING ISSUE BY DRIVING IT FOR A WEEK. NOT ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE ISSUE. LOOKING AT FORUMS THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ONGOING ISSUE. HOPEFULLY NOBODY WILL DIE FROM A STALLING ENGINE THAT LOOSES STEERING. WHEN PUT IN PARK IT TURNS BACK ON WITH NO ISSUES. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME NOW FOR THE THIRD TIME. AGAIN, THIS NEEDS TO BE LOOKED AT BEFORE SOMEONE DIES!!!!

SOMETIMES, THE ENGINE WON'T SHUT DOWN AFTER BEING DRIVEN. WHEN THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN PARKED, AND PUT INTO PARK, THEN TURN THE KEY OFF, THE VEHICLE IS STILL RUNNING. IT'LL RUN FOR SEVERAL MINUTES, THEN CUT OFF. I'VE TRIED TO PUT THE KEY BACK IN AND TURN IT ON AND THEN OFF, VAN STILL RUNS. I'VE UNHOOKED THE BATTERY TO SEE IF IT WOULD RESET ITSELF. THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS.

CAR AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AT ABOUT 68,000 MILES ONCE AND THEN AT 78,000 IT CAME ON AND STAYS ON ALL THE TIME. THIS IS MY SECOND 2006 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN AND THAT ONE DID THE SAME THING. HAD TO GET RID OF IT BECAUSE OF RUST AT 192,000 MILES. WHENEVER I START UP AND DRIVE, IT IS CONSTANTLY ON NOW. NEVER GOES OUT.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
TIPM IS BAD ON VEHICLE, CONFIRMED BY RICK KEFFER DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM DEALERSHIP IN YULEE, FL TWO YEARS AGO. VEHICLE STALLED ON HIGHWAY AND THEN LATER WOULD NOT START. PURCHASED A BYPASS CABLE IN ORDER TO KEEP USING THE VEHICLE AND WHILE DRIVING WE GET INDICATOR LIGHTS FLASHING ON DASHBOARD SUCH AS BRAKE ON WHEN IT'S NOT, SEATBELT LIGHT ON WHEN SEATBELTS ARE BUCKLED, LIGHTS FLASHING OR STAYING ON WHEN TURNED OFF. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE !!! I HAVE THREE KIDS, AGES 13, 12, AND 10 AND THIS IS OUR PRIMARY FAMILY VEHICLE. THE TIPM HAS ALREADY BEEN RECALLED FOR OTHER MAKE AND MODELS WITH CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP FOR 2011-2014 BUT NOT THE GRAND CARAVANS.

TIPM ISSUE JUST RECENTLY BOUGHT A 2011 GRAND CARAVAN WITH 107000 MILES ON IT. IT BEGAN HAVING ISSUES WITH INTERMITTEN STARTING AND THE SIDE DOORS WOULD OPEN WHILE PARKED. AFTER SOME QUICK RESEARCH I READ ABOUT THE TIPM ISSUE THAT IS WELL KNOWN. I FOUND A DEALER SELLING THE RECALL KIT USED ON THESE, CBWPR091AA - WIRING - FUEL PUMP RELAY. I INSTALLED THE FUEL PUMP RELAY AND ALL IS BETTER NOW. I JUST HOPE THERE IS NOT MORE TO THIS ISSUE.
