Passenger side front seat active headrest deployed spontaneously (no accident).
I just bought this vehicle secondhand the indicators for vehicle to close are on the airbag light is on the seats don't go up and down as supposed to they just make a noise and both passenger and driver side rear doors don't open and the windows don't go up or down my VIN number is 2a4rr8dg1br635864.
Tipm failure, dealership wants to charge me over $1000. 00 to repair. Van started acting up in the electrical department . Windows rolling down, key fob not working, cruise control going out, wipers acting up, heated seats not working, ac and heat weakening, intermittent issue to start the van, then stopped running all together, now won't even turn over. Then I took it to dealership after having battery and alternator tested (all good) and had to bring it home cause they wouldn't take a payment plan. I looked on youtube for possible issues and fixes and checked my wiring to my tipm and found one harness tampered with. Tape cut and wires cut as well didn't look lik that when I took it in. I'm upset because I can't afford to replace something this expensive and common known issue. Why is there no recall on this model but other models running this same tipm? this is a cheap way for Chrysler to get more money out of us. Make this a recall, I can only imagine what could've happened if it would've stalled with my 3 kids in the car on a highway!!! get us a recall on this issue!!!!!.
Car will turn over but not start. Had it towed to a dealer while away from home on a family road trip. After several hours of waiting the dealer said the problem was a fault with the tipm and that it would need to be replaced at a cost of over $1100 dollars. I have no other alternative, but what an expensive repair.
Six year old boy sitting on booster seat in second row seat found he could reach the seat recline lever. Seat head rest collapsed and entire seat lifted up and forward. Boy was bent in half and lifted up vertically in seat, receiving minor injuries.
On 4/9/12 I was involved in a serious accident that resulted in my daughter obtaining a severe traumatic brain. She was in critical condition and is now severely disabled. The back curtain airbags did not protect her and did not appear to work properly. I believe that the vehicle was not properly examined after the accident. The car was a rental vehicle and my family was out of state on vacation. Due to the severe injury of my daughter I believe that the airbags failed.
