While driving the vehicle dashboard lit up like a christmas tree and the engine completely shut off locking the wheel. After taking it to the dealership they found nothing wrong. About a month later we were driving home from a soccer game and the car came out of gear while driving about 70 mph. The rpm shot up and I was unable to drive over 40 mph. We ended up staying the night and having the car towed to the dealership. They replaced the sensor solenoid pac. 6 months later I was driving home from a soccer tournament and the same exact thing happened again however I had slowed the vehicle down driving through a residential area and went to speed up after re-entering the highway. The rpm's were at 4 to 5 going 30 mph. I pulled over turned off the car and let it sit for 5 minutes. I was able to drive normally after that , then the check engine light came on. I took the vehicle to the dealership and they said there is nothing the could do. Stored codes ecu: abs dtc: c212a16 description: stored- system voltage-circuit voltage below threshold; ecu: pcm dtc: p075a description: lc solenoid circuit ecu: dmfl/dmfr dtc: b21a1 description: stored- ecu reset/recovery occurred. I have 71,000 miles on the engine and it's under warranty for 13 months more or 28,000 miles. Please help!.

Faulty tipm identified after several years of problems. Most serious problem occurred when the vehicle stalled on the freeway during rush hour traffic. Vehicle speed dropped immediately, with no warning, from 70 mph to 25 mph. Vehicle would not shift, and speed would not increase. Power steering went out, and it was very difficult to maneuver the vehicle across four lanes of heavy traffic (with my children inside) and coast to a safe location where a tow truck was called, and vehicle was taken to dealership for repair. This was the most serious of several problems- all of which appear to point to a faulty tipm. Other problems include faulty turn signals, windows that will not open, rear fan that turns on and off by itself, difficulty shifting, difficulty starting, and drained batteries. Repairs and replacements include solenoid pack replacement, transmission overhaul, battery replacement, power module replacement, blower motor replacement- finally leading to tipm replacement.

11/2/11 while parked & running idle, van shuts off and all power is lost. After 15 min the van finally starts. However, after driving 200 feet it loses power again. Road side service jumps the battery, all seems to operate normally. Over the next couple of days the same thing happens many times. 11/8/11 a new battery is installed. (starter & alternator pass tests) new battery van still losses power when running idle parked/in operation(at traffic light). Frequency increases and eventually van loses power/ stalls while driving. At times van is able to start up right away, other times it has to sit for a few min. Some warning or indication that system may fail, van may shutter a bit/rpm gage needle fluctuates wildly. Another new glitch, the door power locks and power door locks alarm. Power door locks stop working 2/12. Fuse is replaced. Problem is fixed temp, locks stop working days later. Fuse is removed and reseated. Power locks work but only for a short period of time. This process is repeated several times. Battery cable is taken off in hopes of resetting power module but upon reconnecting cable, battery has no life. End result, battery is replaced, tests are run again on starter/alternator, they pass. Van runs okay for about a day, locks stop working again. Next door open alarm and interior lights are set off repeatedly. As of today all issues are still present but seem to come and go.

I own a 2003 Chrysler Town & Country that I purchased new in oct. Of 2003 from mortiz in fort worth, texas. Since purchasing this van it has been used for mostly long distance trips and has been serviced regularly. At the end of January 2007 my transmission solenoid pack started leaking. On Feb. 15, 2007 I bought a new solenoid pack from madison square Chrysler in huntsville, alabama. I installed this item myself being that all that was involved was unbolting the old one and installing the new one. On Feb. 20, 2007 with mileage of 87918 I had the transmission fluid flushed by the above mentioned dealer as well as oil change and maintenance checks. On Feb. 28, 2007 the check engine light came on. I returned to the dealer on March 1, 2007 with mileage of 87990 for another round of service costing $1033. 42. On April 21, 2007 with mileage of 89955 I had complete transmission failure with my two children in the van. I have not taken any action at this time to get this resolved because I cannot afford to pay for a new or rebuilt transmission.

The ignition fuse blew out which caused the vehicle to stall. This occurred while driving and at a complete stop. This results in loss of power steering. Dealership changed ignition fuse 23 to 10 amp. The failure recurred 2 week later. Dealership service invoice read that transmission at pin area and around solenoid pack failed. The harness rubbed, chafed, and was damaged. Repaired harness isolated from transmission with rubber. However, failure recurred.
