I do not have a siriusxm subscription, they sent an unsolicited offer for a 3 month trial and activated satellite system on radio, model 430n, in vehicle. This happened sometime after March 4, 2024. I did not listen to siriusxm on vehicle until sometime mid April. I noticed changes in the way some safety related systems worked and finally realized they started with the trial activation. What changed: the is no audible warning sound, just silence when the following are turned on our activated; turn signals when blinking, blind spot is activated when changing lanes and a vehicle is in blind spot, rear cross traffic warning when traffic present, rear parking collision warning when obstacle is present. Vehicle had audible warning sounds for all of this until satellite radio trial was activated. Why is a radio company able to disable required safety systems on a vehicle?.

The front head restrains deployed without any impact. One month apart from each other.

1. ) my tire pressure warning light remains on and unable to detect if tires are actually low or not. It remains on even when tire pressure is at correct level. I got it checked by mechanic and he agreed that something is wrong with the sensor/system. 2. ) both of my side mirror sensors will not turn off. I was driving and they were off (were previously working as normal), but then I went to get into another lane and someone was in my blind spot and I nearly hit them. Now they stay on and aren’t able to be utilized or trusted. There was no prior warning to any of these issues and now my vehicle feels extremely unsafe as I cannot use the safety features nor trust the tire pressure indicator.

The abs light, traction light, and brake light all come on and simultaneously. I've been told that the abs module is bad and needs to be replaced. The fact that the module needs to be replaced concerns me since there are prior recalls for abs module with other Dodge, ram, and chrsyler makes and models.

* my van loses unexpected power while driving. With this happening, I am afraid to drive on the highway due to the risk of causing an accident if it loses power. Local street driving, I am afraid that someone will rear end me if it loses power. Once it lose power making a right turn onto another street. Fortunately, there were no other cars coming toward me. I was able to re-start the van and drove on. The van is a hazard for myself and others. * do not know exactly what component or system failed or malfunctioned. * have had 2 diagnostics done. One at the dealer and one at an independent car repair shop. Neither one found anything. *occasionally, the lighting bolt symbol will show. *alternator has been replaced. Tpms sensor changed out.

The passenger side rear sliding door will not lock and it periodically opens on its own. There is no warning or reason for this occurrence. It has happened multiple times and seems to be happening more often as time goes on. The vehicle has not been professionally inspected.

Before I started the car I tried to open the passenger sliding door but the door would not open with key fob, manually or interior dash button. (only makes a clicking noise ). Then after driving 5-10 minutes the door opens on its own while driving. Kids and new born in car. Items fell out of car while driving. Interior light came on and my eldest was able to close the door. Very dangerous and distressing!.

I drive for lyft and uber and have had this vehicle spontaneously shut down while I am driving. I have had three places check it and it is not the starter, battery, or alternator. I have replaced the ecu and other items and the mechanics cannot tell me what's wrong. Furthermore, there are no codes that show on the vehicle. The vehicle on the way to the mechanic shut down in traffic and as per usual, started back up and the traction control light came on. When the mechanic disconnected the positive cable on the battery to check the alternator, battery, and starter the code disappeared and the car drove fine on the way home. I have lost a lot of wages due to this issue and now I am afraid to drive the car. I have seen on several forums that this was an issue in the 2011 recall and now it is happening yet again. My car is a 2014 and others are both older and younger, all suffering from this same very scary detail. I hope I am not injured, nor anyone else will be injured, due to this issue. Mechanics are stumped with the problem. I have contacted an attorney and my next step is to call Chrysler but I do not expect them to address this issue unless or until many people die, are injured and then they get sued. Please let me know what, if anything, else I should do. I am putting you on notice of the issue and it's being widespread. In order to make sure I cover all my bases, this issue has happened now about 4x a week, it is not predictable, nor is it consistent with how fast or how slow I may be driving. I have had plenty of gas in the engine.

While driving my vehicle my driver's side headrest exploded without being in an accident. I received no warning from Chrysler about the headrests being faulty. They left driving that unsafe vehicle with the exploded headrest for over 7 months this before replacing it and refuse to replace the passenger one as well stating, "we will only replace that if it explodes during the extended warranty period for it and yours is almost up. " they currently still have my vehicle at the dealership. They clearly want to see a car accident occur knowing that headrest could go off at any moment and was made and installed the sane time as the drivers side.

Greetings, June 30, 2023 incident of our van stalling and shutting off while driving. The traction control warning light comes on, van automatically slows down and shuts off. When this happened, unable to steer, no control of brakes or accelerator along with being dangerous. Took vehicle into midas as they are closest to my work. After testing they determined it was the win module. Since June 30th 2023 to September 10th 2023 this issue happened over a dozen times. Luckily, no one was ever directly behind us and we were able to pull over safely, shut van off, wait one minute and start up again then was fine. The issue always happened while traveling under 30 mph. I am so grateful we, nor anyone else was injured. Midas informed me back early August 2023 that there was a recall on this exact same module, but recall didn't include our van. I spoke with russ darrow Dodge and let them know about our issue and got vehicle in and win module replaced on September 12, 2023.

The key ignition is loose you have to hold the key in place for it to not loose power at all. If you move your hand it will loose power it does that most of the time. So I hold the key in at all times.

While driving at posted limits, the van will shut off without warning. This has happened 5 times. We have been fortunate that no cars have been following close behind, so we have been able to pull the van off the side of the road, stop and re-start the van. I have had a dealer and another mechanic look at the ignition and attempt to trouble shoot. However, nothing is ever found. This does not happen with any consistency. . . It is very random.

My van has 57382 miles and is wheelchair accessible, we only use it for store or doctor appt. It has been shutting off / stalling while driving. It spits & sputters then boom stalls it takes 4 or 5 time to restart but does restart for now. Does not do it every time but when it does we are on highway usually when coming to stop or slowing down to turn which has become a safety issue for all. Had it to garage multiple times, garage can't seem to find problem, no check engine light comes on no code are thrown just stops / stalls. Last incident occurred 6-6-23 but has been ongoing for months and getting worse.

I was sitting in my 2014 town and country and my active headrest restraint randomly activated hitting me in the back of the head. I was parked with one passenger in the vehicle. It hurt my neck as it shot my head forward.

When vehicle is exposed to consistent sunlight and heat during the spring/summer months, the driver's side power sliding door will not latch properly, causing the door to repeatedly try to latch itself shut. This occurs when opening/closing the door, and also while the vehicle is in motion. For example, if the door is shut properly, and the vehicle goes over a bump or something disrupts the ride, the door will think it is open, the warning light comes on the dashboard, the interior lights activate and the electric latch motor will repeatedly activate until the van thinks the door is closed. Even when parked, I have returned to the vehicle to find the door trying to close itself.

I purchased this van used in 2023, but this problem has been on going for years thebowner said. The van sliding door get stuck in open position on right side. There is a buzzing noise coming from lock mechanism in left sliding door when you open any door or press the unlock button. There is no recalls for this but it is a known problem. Issues with faulty 2013 Chrysler town and country Mini van are currently in lawsuit claims. Help fix this before it kills someone. I have 3 small children if the door opens while driving that puts us in danger.

I bought my 2014 Chrysler town and country not even a year ago and this is the second transmission that has went out on my van. I’m now in the process of fighting with the warranty company to get it replaced if possible. There’s no reason for this. The first time it went out was a month after I purchased it June 2022. Second time may 2023 (still in shop waiting).

Electric fire drivers side rear inside, parked in driveway, hadn't been started for 24 hours, no inspection, not sure who to contact, disconnected battery and extinquised fire with water, major melting on inside and paint on outside, lucky we saw what was happening when we did close to fuel tank could have caused explosion.

Actuator for driver side sliding door lock making loud noise when operating which will lead to failure.

The contact owns a 2008 Chrysler town and country. The contact stated that while driving approximately 65 mph, the driver’s and passenger’s side curtain and front air bags suddenly deployed. During the failure there was no collision to cause the air bags to deploy. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The local dealer and manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The contact was informed that the VIN was not included in the NHTSA campaign number: 11v394000 (air bags, equipment). The contact stated that the vehicle had experienced that failure listed in the recall. The failure mileage was 170,160.

The drivers sliding door is stuck locked/closed. A toddler was stuck in her car seat since I was not able to open the door. This could be a huge safety issue if in an accident or adult unable to help her get out through window.

Passenger sliding door lock is stuck in the unlocked position. I cannot manually or electronically lock the door. This poses a safety risk to my young children and myself.

The van has repeatedly (5 seperate times) stalled in the middle of driving. The electronics will remain on, but the power steering goes out and the van decelerates to a complete stop. When I try to start the van immediately after, the ignition turns over, but the engine does not start. After a period of 10-30 minutes the van will start up fine. We’ve had the van to our mechanic and there are no codes. The first time it stalled in the middle of a 2 lane road, on a blind curve, with no shoulder to pull off on. The second time was on interstate 75. I now know when it happens to start searching for a safe place to pull off the road, however once it happens I am limited on the distance the van will travel before it stops. Depending on the seed I’m traveling it’s usually only a couple hundred feet.

I got my 2013 Chrysler town and country of a local used car dealership. I’ve had it almost 2 years. The transmission is now going out. I’ve been told it’s probably a design flaw inside the transmission as so many other people are having the same problems with the 62te transmissions. It has 102,000 miles. I got it it when it had 90,000. There is no warranty.

Vehicle shot off while driving at approximately 25 mph to 30 mph twice during a round trip. No control of the vehicle. Pulled over and put vehicle into park and restarted the vehicle. Very concerning. There is a safety recall on 2010 Chrysler town and country for this serious problem but not for this VIN number. Why not? if this happened at a higher speed or with traffic present the outcome and consequence could be significant. Please advise.

The lock on right sliding door is in a locked position and you can not open the door. The electronic lock actuator failed and the manual lock lever is stuck in locked position. It's seems to be a Chrysler town and country and Dodge caravan failure. It imposes a safty issue in case of a fire or accident.

The vehicle was listed on the facebook marketplace for 96,000 miles, while near purchasing for $8,900, cash asked the seller to run a carfax and he took very long, and never gave it to us. I took it upon myself to contact someone to run the VIN number on the vehicle . . . The carfax shows the vehicle has 450,487 miles registered in maryland at 450,487 miles on 11-16-2022. Said vehicle with the same VIN was registered in new york state on 12-12-2022 and listed with an odometer reading of 99,451 miles. The receipt was given with the wrong price than originally charged (included in uploads). Odometer was turned back from this dealership registered in new york state I believe it's very unfair for law-abiding citizens like myself to go through such a disastrous experience as well as almost losing $8,900, I'm kindly asking you to please investigate this matter because I believe most of the vehicles sold by this seller has fake odometer reading (mileage). Please run the VIN for this vehicle registered to different states with different odometer reading upon reaching new york state to scam law-abiding citizens. I want this to be investigated ASAP. I enclosed for your convenience my messenger chats with the seller.

The sliding door on the passenger side has issues with the door lock actuator. It buzzes when unlocking and locking.
