The back side rear window caught on fire. This was suppose to have been replaced in a recall at naples Dodge Chrysler. I took the van in after waiting a year for the part to come in. Now it has caught in fire and burned van inside and out, while parked in the driveway. Which makes me wonder if they ever really did the replacement in it.

The car starts to power down and makes the power steering stop working. The traction control symbol shows up after it starts to power down. It has happened three times in the past two weeks about 2-3 minutes from home while the car is in motion. One of the times was while I was turning left with oncoming cars. The car has to be restarted. This is very dangerous and should be a recall as so many others have experienced the same thing.

My exact year make and model of van had a recall for the 'win module' because of ignition problems. Because my VIN number didn't fall into 'those affected' by the faulty win module, they will not take care of it. The van will fail to turn over or start completely or will start and then shut off leaving my family stranded. Chrysler is this exact issue with the same other vans included in the recall and needs to include the others affected by it. I've personally replaced the alternator, battery, and key fob and have come to realize it's the win module that was recalled for these same exact issues on other vans.

Will not start. Multiple problems. Recall already issued for other years/models. Need to expand recall!!! neutral safety switch or a transmission gear indicator is bad, car just clicks when key is turned. Very expensive so far to diagnose. It was not the starter. Maybe the starter for some people. A recall needs to be done to cover all the problems with the ignition switch!!!

My vehicle starts trembling and shuts down all of the sudden, all the time while I am driving slow or fast. It stops sometimes in the middle of the highway. I have three kids and this is our only way of transportation. I am truly concerned for our safety.

Van will switch off while driving down the road causing power steering, power brakes, and airbags to shut off. This happens intermittently. My van is a 2010 but for some reason not covered under a Chrysler recall to replace the win module. I currently have van at Chrysler dealer and having repair completed on my own dime. This recall should be extended to cover all Chrysler vans manufactured in the 2010 model year. The key fob will be in the ignition but the ignition switch is faulty and switches the motor off. Van will restart if you put it in neutral and turn the switch back on. Very unsafe. Consumer stated at this point this repair seems to have fixed the problem.

The tipm in my 2010 T&C has a faulty fuel pump relay I have come to believe and after finding a petition was denied I am looking for resolutions. These car manufactures build vehicles as cheap as they can and dont care for public safety just profits if you make a mistake own up to it and fix it ! male a better product and people will buy it gladly if its a good vehicle. Chrysler needs to recall the relay in Town and countrys vans! my van does not want to start after sitting has not happened while driving thank god
