My van dies when I'm driving it I lose all power or no breaks no lights I can't even put emergency lights on, this is been going on for almost 2 years have had it in the shop twice has cost me a bundle, I brought it home the other day drove it to the corner and it died again in the middle of the street this is becoming a real safety issue that they can't seem to fix there is a lot of other complaints for this same problem, something needs to be done before I get in wreck and get killed or my children, I am afraid to take the car , you never know when it's going to die sometimes you can drive it a long ways and never die and other times you can barely get out of the driveway but it doesn't matter it will die going slow it will die going fast, I can't afford another car as I am on a fixed income, you need to do something as this car has give me nothing but problems since I had it I bought it and I am scared it three years ago, only 85,000 miles was on it I haven't drove but about even 4000 miles since I have owned it and I'm scared to get on the highway and nobody seems to know how to fix it, I've been driving this car for two years and this is happening to me probably 10 times at a slow speed and probably six times at approximately 60 to 65 miles an hour fast speedsi am tired of paying mechanics for nothing it dies and they say it doesn't die when they take it out for a drive ,well big surprise, because it doesn't give me any warning or tell me when it is going to die either till it does it!! Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep manufacturing company needs to recall and really need to do something about this van because somebody's going to get killed, does somebody really need to get killed before you do something about it, really??? and if they don't I'm going to have to see a lawyer that will help me with my Dodge Grand Caravan sxl , thank you I.

The instrument panel randomly lights up with all warning lights and chimes going off simultaneously, the windshield wipers activating and headlights flashing. Stopping the car, turning it off and on doesn't reset the problem, but it randomly goes away and doesn't happen again for two weeks or a month. It happens when the vehicle is stopped or in motion, while the vehicle is running. I see an open NHTSA investigation matching this on my vehicle, for a tipmodule.

There was a recall for win module on my vehicle. Nhtsa number 14v-373. I was told by the dealer that the parts were not available and I would be notified when they were. I took the vehicle to the dealer for an oil change and when it was finished I noticed on the invoice that they had done the recall. The problem is they could not have performed the recall because they did not have both fobiks. I asked the service manager about this and agreed they had to replace the fobiks then he started to double talk and said I was better off because the new fobiks did not have all the buttons that mine had. I do not believe the recall was completed! I believe this is very dangerous for a dealer to tell a customer that a recall has been completed when in fact it has not.

I received the recall notice r03/NHTSA 14v-373 over a year ago. I immediately contacted the dealership in ithaca, NY, as my vehicle had had this problem (engine shut off while driving) many times. I was told that they would order the parts and get back to me and that is might be a "few months". Over a year later not a word. My husband contacted a different dealership in auburn, NY several months ago and was told the same thing. Still have not heard a word. I have 3 children that regularly ride in this vehicle and having the vehicle shut off when you are driving 55 mph on the highway and you lose your power steering is a little unnerving to say the least. Seems like the recall is a farce and no one is actually getting the repair.

The passenger power sliding door on my vehicle has opened on its own on several different occasions when in motion. The automatic locks keep the door from opening at high velocity, but until the automatic locks turn on the door can open unless I manually lock the door. I also have issues with the door not being able to close at all, and I have to manually close the door.

For a few days my van has been having issues starting. (not battery) every light on the dash bored has been popping on. Then all the dash lights go out and so do the head lights. We were driving at night. Parked the car for a minute and let it run. It shifted out of park into drive and drove up a little knoll and into a parked car. No one was in or around the van. My bumper was damaged. Luckily no one was hurt. I am a mother of 4 young children. This is a very dangerous situation. Today it rain a bit but prior to today it was not raining. When in parked, lights and wipers were in the off position but they continued to stay on. At a very fast rate it would idle up and down quickly. We refuse to even turn on the van for I am scared of what may happen.
