We purchased a Chrysler 2012 Town & Country van. We choose and paid extra for a van with the feature offered, back-up camera, blind-side detection, side airbags. These features are very important to me as I'm a grandma of 11 little grandchildren and felt these features added another level of safety when around them. A warning came up on my dash, the vehicle was taken to a garage where the technician diagnosed that the blind spot module was not sealed and the elements had gotten in and corroded the computer module. The module controls blind side detection, backup camera, navigation direction and more. The failure mileage at the time was 50,400. I would consider it a fluke if it werent for 2 other family members with the same issue, one with a 2011 Town & Country and the other has a 2012 Town & Country. I contacted our Chrysler garage and the service manager told me they are seeing this issue a lot!! the module is in a location where rain, sleet, snow and salt get in contact with it and the module is not elements tight.

Blind spot right side radar (safety feature) failed after 41 months. Car was purchased new in November of 2011. Inspected failed part and found a bulge on edge of the plastic container. Opened the device and found metal corrosion on and in the metal case. It appears that the water seal either broke or was not sufficient to stop water leakage. Metal corrosion material was on the print circuit board which I believe cased the failure.

Warning lights on both mirrors for blind spot detection stay on always - with the ding ding ding sounds ringing on and off - weather driving down the road or sitting still parked, if the car is running, the problem is there. I believe this unsafe issue should be fixed by a recall, as it is a problem that is very unsafe & dangerous, many folks whom have purchased this vehicle are experiencing the same unsafe problem! I paid for this feature on the vehicle, to add safety and now it is causing just the opposite, unsafe driving conditions. This really concerns me, a safety feature failing on all these cars and especially at such low mileage. With this feature malfunctioning, it is much more dangerous than texting or talking on the phone while driving. What is the criteria to get a recall in place, do people have to have accidents or die to get a problem recalled, how is it decided.
