general problems of the 2006 Chrysler Town & Country

Vehicle hasn't been inspected, issue is still present. My child was able to move gear shift and change gears causing vehicle to roll down driveway into woods, without key in ignition or foot on brake. I have video evidence of occurrence and video of issue without key or foot on brake.

The horn does not work and there was a recall for this.

My 2006 Chrysler town and country has 160,000 and reverse doesn't work I'm really tired of these car transmission failure so expensive to fix.

Tipm - power module failure caused erratic electrical problems all over door opens on own, starts stalls, windows dont work, will not start, took over 2 weeks to get part.

The rear evaporator on the a. C. Unit has failed. Chrysler has not addressed this on-going problem.

While driving on the interstate all of the gages in the cluster went to zero (mph, guel, engine temp) and I had no directional signals or emergency flashers.

While driving on the highway van shut off. This has happened five times vey scary. We had took it to the Honda and they told us they can not find anything wrong with it. We do not know what do next. We use the van for are 4 kids. Thank you.

Driving vehicle on road, slowing down to turn right into driveway, turned on right turn signal - instead of the right turn signal coming on, the left turn signal came on. I turned it back off and tried once more - again with the same results. I made the right and vehicle immediately stalled. I could not turn my wheel, could not control steering, but luckily it was a driveway with no oncoming traffic. I was able to crank the engine and restart the vehicle and made it further into the driveway before the vehicle stalled again. Again lost steering control. Now vehicle will not start, simply turns over and cranks but no engine starting.

When turning on left blinker, the right blinker comes on instead. Sometimes the left blinker does not stay on and I have to turn it on again several times while waiting at a traffic light. When turning on the right blinker, the left blinker comes on instead. I have seen numerous complaints about this same problem on the internet. I have filed a report with Chrysler. I have made arrangements to have this problem fixed by replacing the multifunction switch, however I do feel that this should be a recall item due to the fact that many consumers are experiencing the same issue.

Driving on road at 50 mph. The engine just just off. Drove off the road into woods luckily no accident. The car then started back up right away. I had to reverse into on coming traffic. I had 3 young kids in car at the time as well. Put me in a scary situation. Had work done on ignition system, tune up, belt changes and a few valve sensors replaced. Had this issue occur before with my wife.

The vehicle will stall after filling the fuel tank, usually within the first quarter mile. It will stall one or two times, requiring a restart, often in the middle of an intersection or pulling into traffic. This happens nearly every time the fuel tank is filled. There are many online forums that attest to how common this problem is in Dodge caravan, Chrysler town and country, and Jeep models.

I have had multiple incidents with my van of it totally shutting down while driving both at high speeds and low. I have had it checked by Chrysler and they replaced a cam shaft sensor twice. The vehicle always restarts but all but one of the incidences when it shut down have left me/us in a very dangerous situation. Chrysler tells me they can not diagnose unless I do not restart the vehicle. I have a case # with Chrysler of 23814097. The most recent incident was on vacation in florida 2/14 at highway speed and it was to dangerous to not restart and go.

After stopping in my garage, I used the remote to unlock and open the rear driver side power sliding door. The door began to open, and I reached in to pick up my bag. The door caught suddenly and started to close quickly. I reached up with my right arm to stop the door from closing on me, which it did. I then tried to back out of the car in case the door suddenly closed again. The door caught again, this time slamming into my right cheek and causing a concussion. 10 days later, and I am still recovering. I don't know what to do to correct the problem, but I don't want others to face the same possibility of injury.

Over the years we've left the key in the ignition and the battery has gone dead. Chrysler had checked it out several times and found nothing wrong with the ignition switch. We've replaced the battery twice. The first battery leaked and destroyed the harness, which Chrysler paid part of. The second had partial replacement. My opinion is something is wrong. Things are supposed to automatically shut off after 15 minutes, so the battery should not have gone dead. This has happened at least 4 times. We had to charge the battery numerous times. We learned to take the key completely out. We're not sure about anything but we want the problem documented. The problem has never been solved. Since we've been fortunate not to have had an accident, I have no idea if the airbags are functional along with other things. The dates are off, but Chrysler knows when we where there.
