Tl the contact owns a 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan. The contact stated that while driving 25 mph, the check engine warning light illuminated and the vehicle started to hesitate. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where the ignition coil number 6 was replaced. The vehicle was repaired however, the failure persisted. The dealer was not made aware of the failure. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 127,000.
While driving the check engine light came on when I came to a red light I noticed the engine idle was rough. I checked the code when I got home p0305 misfire in cylinder no. 5 I had the spark plug and coil pack replaced cleared the code engine still idled rough and check engine light came back on. I had a mechanic look at it and found defective valve guide in cylinder no. 5 he stated this is a common problem with this engine. Lesson learned don't buy Dodge.
My van has a 3. 6l pentastar v6 engine. Check engine light came on as I was driving. Car started to shake and lose power at stop light. An obd test indicated that cylinder #2 was misfiring. My mechanic determined that there is low compression on cylinder #2. This is a recurring and commonly known problem with the pentastar engine attributable to a cracked cylinder head on the left side. Chrysler has promised to replace for affected engines at no cost to owners as long as the vehicle is within 10 years or 150,000 miles. I had a similar issue two years ago which was fixed at no cost to me when the vehicle was at 78,000 miles plus. . I am filing this complaint because this time Chrysler has refused to pick up the cost of $1,800 plus estimated by the Chrysler dealership to replace the cylinder head on my vehicle. I have contacted the Chrysler number set up to resolve this issue several times but the official response is that my vehicle has a high mileage of 130,084 and therefore not within the 5 years 100,000 miles warranty window. But instead of issuing a mass recall to address this problem Chrysler has issued a public bulletin stating that the company will pay for the replacement of cylinder heads as this problem occurs on the pentatstar engine up to 10 years 150,000. (not 5 years 100,000 miles) I have pointed out this fact and referenced the Chrysler but to no avail. In short Chrysler has refused to honor its publicly stated commitment in this case. I am writing to request for arbitration or else show me what recourse to take in this david versus goliath case. I feel very much wronged and would very much like to escalate.
Fuel line failure while merging onto major highway. This resulted in loss of acceleration and power steering on the highway. Vehicle coasted / rolled to the next available highway exit. Upon inspection of the engine compartment, I observed boiling liquid; vehicle was non-functional and had to be towed to dealer. Odb scanner reported it as a #2 cylinder failure. Prior to highway failure, van had problems with the check engine light resulting from a #2 cylinder misfire. Took the van to dealer and they did not find the correct problem, so paid twice for service. The first payment to fix resulted from the charge for inspection from the check engine light. Second charge resulted after needing to have the vehicle towed to the dealership, and after the dealer fixed the fuel line issue.
As I was at a stop my car stalled. Then started bogging real bad as if it was running on 4 cylinders. Had it towed to the dealer and the check engine light was flashing. They put it on the machine and said it was fine. 2 weeks later the same thing has happened and they are telling me they can not diagnose the problem.
