The dash lights and other electrically powered components flicker on and off repeatedly. This happens intermittently, while sitting still and while driving, some days no issue other days numerous instances of the problem. The dealer says it is most likely the tipm module and it will cost $1000 plus to repair. As of 7-18-16 the part is experiencing a national part shortage because so many are having to be replaced on numerous Chrysler Jeep and Dodge vehicles. I have replace the battery and now on a waiting list for the tipm. The most recent incident was Saturday 7-16-16. The dash must have go on and off 25 or 30 times as I drove 12 miles to the dealer. By the time I arrived it stop flickering and has not flickered again the last two days,

This vehicle has given problems with the electrical since I got in brand new in winter 2009. When driven for more then a couple hours, all the electrical will flash off for a few seconds, to include my power steering headlights, dash lamps, etc. I had the recall done which replaced the ignition switch which supposedly was the problem. Now that this recall has been done, my key gets stuck in my ignition, the tire pressure system randomly turns off, and to top it off the electrical still flashes on and off after driving for more then an hour or two. The dealership has stated they don't know what causes this as it never happens when they test drive it. Another problem that I've had since day one, is with the transmission. When you slow down to make a turn and press the gas to speed back up with the wheel still turned the transmission will jerk into gear. This also has been looked at multiple times and the dealership did not know what was causing it.

Random stalling while driving and also while in park idling. Different systems are effected. Speedometer cuts out then a ding and it comes back. Also the indicators that tell you a car is next to you stay on. The information center stops working. Ac stops blowing then comes back. Radio does the same. When it stalls sometimes you have no power as if the battery has been disconnected. Then power comes back after while and you can start the van. The transmission sometimes will not shift. The charging system light, traction control light, ABS light come on and the millage flickers dimly. A lot of strange things happening. The Chrysler dealer has replace the alternator saying it was causing high voltage. Did not fix the problem. Next they replaced the ABS module saying it was shorting out. Did not fix the problem. I am bring it back to them. I suspect that the tipm is the issue. I am a retired ase certified technician in engine performance, steering and suspension, breaks and electrical.

Tipm module failure. Known issue with this and other Chrysler vehicles. This is the singular part which controls the entire vehicle. When I called Chrysler to see what they would do to help, they got the part expedited for delivery, but offered nothing else to assist: No help with the rental car, no price reduction on the part or the labor to repair vehicle for a known repair issue. This was my first and my last Chrysler product purchase, and I will make sure I tell as many people as I can about how much Chrysler cares about customer service, customer satisfaction and standing behind their known defective product!!

The ignition switch moved, during regular driving on city streets over speed bumps, suddenly out of the run position, turning off the engine. The Chrysler service guys suggested to remove all items from their key rings, leaving only the ignition key - as a permanent remedy.

I started receiving recall notices in may of 2015 for my vehicle. The recall notice is R03/NHTSA 14V-373 involving the ignition key. Every time I call the dealer, ziegler Chrysler Dodge in downers grove Illinois, they tell me that they are waiting on the parts, that I am on the list and that they will call me as soon as they receive the parts. After a year of waiting I am frustrated. I think that if there is a safety recall, then there should be pressure on the manufacture and dealers to rectify the problem. Thank you

The engine stops as if you turned the engine off when in motion. It can be restated once you put it into the park or nuteral. This can cause a major issue on the highways.
