Air Bag Light On problems of the 2011 Dodge Grand Caravan

The airbag light came on. I researched if there were any recalls on airbags for my vehicle and it was found there is. What can I do about this?.

Airbag light is on constantly - never turns off. Seat belt light will sometimes come on even when seat belt is secure. Fuel pump doesn't stop running after engine is shut off. While driving, all lights will come on on dash and gauges/headlights will flicker then car will die. Has happened more than three(!) times at night on busy highway with 2 toddlers in car!!! had to pull off road in complete darkness. I am fearful of driving this car. I will not drive at night anymore.

Car was not able to start with clicking noise. Also fuel pump was still running long after car was turned off and exited. Problem was the tipm. This is a recall for other Dodge models that are 2011 yet it is not for my van. This is over a $1000 problem to have dealership change the tipm. Now my airbag light is on. I'm finding mass of people had this problem because of water intrusion in connection in engine compartment. How is this not a recall? that should be a water sealed connection to prevent airbag system shutting off. We were stationary, car running, light came on.

I purchased my 2011 Grand Caravan in July 2012 an have had several problems with it ever since. There have been multiple instances of the engine stalling while driving and/or my vehicle not starting. I have since troubleshot this down to the fuel pump relay being faulty in the tipm. I have also had issues of un-commanded opening and closing of the rear sliding doors while parked. I also get an random flicker of the airbag light on dash with audio tone. These issues were discussed with a mechanic at the local Dodge dealership when having a recall performed on the "misfire" issue. I was told that the software was updated and I should not have any more issues. That has definitely not been the case. One of the above mentioned issues occurs on a weekly if not daily basis. I do not feel safe putting my family in this vehicle!.

Began with airbag light on panel coming on and random locking and unlocking of doors and dying while traveling at various speeds. All these happen wether the vehicle is in motion or not. Then it would only start using the remote starter and now it only starts when jumped by another running vehicle, even when the battery is fully charged(tested). It will simply crank and crank till battery is dead(about 10 minutes) unless it is connected to another running vehicle. It will start even if battery is close to dead then.

My airbag light would come on and go off randomly. I took it back to my dealer and it was stated that it was an issue with in the wiring but not an issue with the airbag. Now my airbag light has been on for over a month. I checked recalls and see there is a recall on 2011-2012 Dodge Grand Caravans for the driver side airbag randomly deploying yet nothing for my VIN. I drive my children around in this vehicle and if the driver side or either side was to randomly deploy. . . . This is a catastrophe waiting to happen!!!.

My van shut off in the middle of traffic on north roxboro road on the way to northern high school. I was protected until aaa came and towed my car to the dealer. I rented a car and I paid for the 1st week of the rental and the other week was cared for by the dealer. It is unknown what was wrong with the vehicle at this point in time. Once this happened, a few months later the car began to cut off at the gas station the day before my family was about to travel out of town. Once it cut off we had to drive another car that was not working well to our destination. Aaa jump started my van in order for me to get back to the dealership. The advised me that I needed a new battery, however the dealership I was told that if the battery was low and I received a jump start I should drive the car. I tried and turned around once again to the dealership. I waited 30 minutes before someone was able to push my van into the lot. My car was held most of the day and at the end of the day they told me I needed a battery. I called my husband to discuss the matter, he wanted to discuss the information with them and they were asking for a large amount of money to fix not only the battery, but the alternator as well. The alternator was not the problem I was told originally. I had only brought the car to their location. They wanted almost a $1000. 00 to fix my van. I had aaa tow my van away, aaa brought me a new battery and they tested and found that the alternator was the main source of my problems. The last time my van shut off it had all of the lights on. The voltage light, the abs brake lights, the oil lights, the air bag lights and the battery light. It has been in and out of commission. I had at least 3 incidences that involved my children and feel that our lives were at stake. I need to have a resolution in this matter without being required to buy a new plan. I feel cheated.

We have taken the vehicle multiple times, the airbag light randomly turns on, especially with temperature changes. The dealer says they have changed the connector and the device, it still randomly lights up the airbag symbol.
