Wheel problem #1

Tire pressure sensor light keeps coming on I've had the tire pressure sensors replaced with non oem and now oem Chrysler parts and vehicle doesn't recognize any of the sensors other than the left front but all sensors pass when individually scanned vehicle was made with in one week of end date of the safety recall p63 NHTSA 14v-632 mechanic shop found this recall and thinks this vehicle should be included but I can't find a dealership that will honor the recall I have 2 other invoices for this same problem.

Wheel problem #2

I have a 2014 Dodge caravan. The van only has 48 k miles. The battery went bad so I replaced the battery. Then the problem started. 1st the car will not turn off. I remove the key and the engine is still running and won't turn off. I had to remove the asd relay which was very hot. Once I was able to shut down ,now the dashboard shows the car in reverse but it is actually in park and won't come out of gear. The check engine light is on, the tire is low light is on, and the car with tire tracks is on,(abs). I looked up recalls and they have had a recall on the fuelpump relay .

Wheel problem #3

Both sliding door lock actuators buzzed and stopped functioning properly, causing them to need to be replaced. This has been difficult to have the doors close and get the kids in and out. Tpms failing, pressures correct on newer tires light keeps coming on.

Wheel problem #4

I have purchased my 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan new in 2014 and I purchased a 2017 Dodge Grand Caravan for my daughter. Both required transmissions replaced? my unfortunately was out of warranty for time not miles driven. My daughter's vehicle was covered by the warrantee. The first issue with my vehicle was wheel bearing going out. When they checked more in depth they discovered metal pieces in the transmission fluid. As a result my vehicle required a new transmission as did my daughter's vehicle. What I find very interesting is that the dealership had transmissions in stock? seems like this is a bigger issue than they let on.

Wheel problem #5

Low tire pressure warning light stays on after checking that tires are inflated correctly. Chrysler dealership said there was no recall on my vehicle and they recommended replacing all four sensors: $75 per wheel plus labor.

Wheel problem #6

My tire pressure sensors keep saying my tires are low but there not when I check em the sensors go on and off and I never know if there right just bought it for used dealer in may 2018 and have been going on and off I have even replaced the tires thinking something was wrong with them then I seen that they may have been recalled but dealer didn't say anything about it.

Wheel problem #7

Tl- the contact owns a 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan sxt. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle,s tire pressure monitoring system warning indicator illuminated. The contact stated that the tire pressure was checked and air was put in the tires, but the warning remained illuminated on the vehicle's instrument panel. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the tire pressure monitoring systems sensor had failed and needed to be repaired. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 34,000. Wh.

Wheel problem #8

Called a tow truck after a blown tire. Was towed to the nearest shop where they attempted to repair the tire. They inspected all four of my tires and I was advised I had dry rot in them and they expected I would be replacing them all within a year. Only had the vehicle for one year and was only at 6000 miles. Since then I've taken it to 2 other tire specialists and all told me my vehicle is a hazard to drive, and it should be parked until fixed. Spoke with the Dodge dealership, customer service, and yokohama tires rep, all said its cosmetic and I shouldn't worry about it. I refuse to put my family in jeopardy because they don't want to fix their mistakes.

Wheel problem #9

I was driving down a freeway bridge changing lanes with little traffic to inside walled lane around a slight turn,when the van felt like it lost traction in the front right ;and slightly sped up. I drove along the edge of the wall,safely trying to reduce speed and pull off the freeway. Luckily I managed to only glance and scrape the wall caused mild body damage ;deep scraps and dents. When I pulled off the freeway,I had a trashed front right tire,half a rim and extensive steering component damage. I think it is possible the tire was low,with no indication of it,but what scared me was the acceleration increase of up to 10+ mph. The road there just in that area was dark and I thought I might have had run over something that caused rt front wheel to lose ground contact,;I. E a truck retread or a rolled up carpet,but the police found nothing in the roadway,the temp was in the high 30's,no ice. . . . . . Water and I had $6500 in damage. I have basic steel rims,plastic caps.

Wheel problem #10

I was sold this car without a spare tire or jack, and was not informed at the time of sale that these are not included. There was only an air pump. I had a flat tire and was stranded while pregnant. This is completely unsafe.
