One problem related to trunk wiring has been reported for the 2007 Chrysler Town & Country. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
During a low-speed local trip (less than 2 miles, 45 mph max) acrid smoke starts coming out front a/c vents. Stop, turn off ignition. After merely describing the problem to an experienced mechanic, he says he knows what the cause is and proves it by removing the glove compartment to reveal a fried wire and nearby heat-damaged parts. He adds that many Chrysler-built (also gm-built) vehicles had caught fire because of this very reason. The a/c blower motor had started drawing too much electrical current (reason unknown*) which caused its wire to get hot enough to burn its own insulation plus melt nearby plastic parts. The wire is, obviously, undersized for a nominal overload. ( blower was still blowing as it always had, and had never blown its fuse. ) as an electronics technician with 39 years' experince in engineering, I find the use of wiring too small in gage to safely handle the full load rating of its branch circut (as determined, in this case, by the blower fuse amperage) to be appalling. The national electrical code protects us in our homes from such dangerous electrical design, why isn't there a code to protect us in our highway vehicles as well? what other undersized wires in my car are waiting to set it on fire? what such wiring in other makes and/or models? youtube provides graphic evidence of what can happen when a car burns, even when no crash has occurred.
