2015 Chrysler Town & Country Complaint Log

OVER THE COURSE OF HAVING THE VEHICLE FOR THE PAST 3 YEARS. WE HAVE HAD A NUMBER OF ODD OCCURRENCES WHERE WHEN DRIVING THE VAN IT HAS A HARD TIME SHIFTING WHILE CLIMBING A HILL, WHEN PULLING AWAY QUICKLY FROM A STOPPED POSITION OR WHEN COMING TO A STOP. THE ISSUE IS ALWAYS WHEN THE TRANSMISSION IS SHIFTING. WE HAVE HAD IT LOOKED AT BUT THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE, UNTIL. WHEN DRIVING TO THE GROCERY STORE THE VAN WOULD NOT GO INTO GEAR WHILE TRYING TO LEAVE THE PARKING LOT ONTO A MAJOR CITY HIGHWAY. THE VAN JERKED AND SHOOK AND THEN REVVED VERY LOUDLY GETTING TO ALMOST 8000 RPMS. THE CAR THEN LURCHED FORWARD ALMOST CAUSING US TO COLLIDE INTO TRAFFIC. AFTER THIS INSTANCE WE DECIDED A TO CALL THE ISSUE IN. UPON OUR INITIAL CALL, THE WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED AND THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO DO ANY REPAIRS UNDER THE WARRANTY. WHEN SEARCHING FOR RECALLS WHILE NONE SHOWED FOR OUR PARTICULAR VIN, MANY OTHERS HAVE HAD THIS SAME ISSUE. GIVEN THE NATURE OF THE ISSUE WE CAN CONFIRM THAT CAUSE OF THE ISSUE IS LOSING HYDRAULIC PRESSURE. THIS FAULTY COMPONENT NEARLY COST THE LIVES OF MY 5 FAMILY MEMBERS AS WELL AS OTHER THAT COULD HAVE BEEN INJURED.

MY ENGINE NEEDS TO BE REPLACE. THE DEALER SAYS THE UPPER ROD HAS DAMAGED THE ENGINE AND THE ENGINE NEEDS TO BE REPLACE ($5200.00). ALSO, THE ACTUATOR IN THE RIGHT SLIDING DOOR HAD TO BE REPLACED.

I'VE HAD TO HAVE MAJOR WORK DONE TO MY ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION. BUT THE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS ARE NEVER ENDING. MOST OF THE ELECTRIC INSIDE OF MY CAR HARDLY WORKS. OUR POWER DOORS HAVE CLOSED ON MY KIDS SEVERAL TIMES, THE CAR HAS LOCKED US IN WHILE THE ALARM WAS GOING OFF AND WE COULDN'T GET OUT, IT'S BEEN STUCK ON AND WOULDN'T TURN OFF, THE TRANSMISSION IS CONSTANTLY SLIPPING, THE WINDOWS OPEN AND CLOSE THEMSELVES, MANY TIMES I'VE COME OUT OF THE STORE AND THE ELECTRIC SLIDING DOOR WAS OPEN WHEN IT WASN'T LEFT OPEN, LOCKS LOCK THEMSELVES, CAR ALARM GOES OFF WHILE CARS IN DRIVE AND IN PARK, CAR HESITATES TO GO AND I COULD GO ON AND ON. THIS CAR IS ONLY FIVE YEARS OLD !!!!

THE HEADREST OPENED WITHOUT WARNING OR COLLISION WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. DRIVING AT ABOUT 45 MPH WHILE SLOWING DOWN GOING OVER RUMBLE STRIPS. THE PLASTIC HOUSING THAT HOLDS THE BAR WHICH HOLD THE HEADREST DOWN HAD BROKEN. THE BAR IS STILL HEALD BY TWO TEETH.

MY VAN IS SHAKING WHEN I STOP AND STALLS OUT WHEN I STOP. IT ALSO SHIFTS POORLY (JUMPS WHEN SHIFTING). I TOOK IT TO MEDINA AUTO MALL WHO SAID THE TRANSMISSION NEEDS REPLACED. IT ONLY HAS 55,000 MILES ON IT. I NOTICED THERE IS AN ACTIVE RECALL FOR POWER TRAN ON THE ONES MADE RIGHT BEFORE (OR AFTER, I CAN'T REMEMBER EXACTLY WHICH WAY IT WAS) MY VAN WAS MADE WHICH IS VERY FRUSTRATING. I SHOULD NOT HAVE A TO REPLACE A TRANSMISSION ON A VAN I JUST PURCHASED 2 YEARS AGO THAT I HAVE TAKEN GREAT CARE OF AND HAS LOW MILES ON IT. I PAID 21,000 FOR THIS VEHICLE AND IT IS DISTURBING THAT THEY ARE TELLING ME THE TRANSMISSION IS BAD. I HAVE 3 CHILDREN AND IT IS DANGEROUS TO BE DRIVING THEM AROUND IN THIS VEHICLE. UNFORTUNATELY, WE ARE UNSURE WHAT TO DO RIGHT NOW AS WE DON'T HAVE THE FUNDS TO PUT THAT MUCH MONEY INTO IT. I PUT A DATE AS TO WHEN IT LAST HAPPENED BUT IT HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES.

PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR IS BUZZING, WHEN OPENING PASSENGER FRONT DOOR AND VARIOUS OTHER TIMES.

I'VE REPLACED THE BATTERY 3 TIMES IN THE PAST 8 MONTHS. THIS LAST TIME THE BATTERY ALMOST EXPLODED BECAUSE OF THE DRAW ON IT. MY MECHANIC SAYS THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VAN AND THE PARTS STORE SAYS THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH ANY OF THE 3 BATTERIES THEY SOLD ME. IVE GONE ON LINE AND OTHER PEOPLE COMPLAIN OF A PARASITIC BATTERY DRAIN.. MY VEHICLE WAS IN MY DRIVEWAY EACH TIME WHEN THE BATTERY WAS FOUND DEAD.

A 2015 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY VAN FROM MIAMI, FLORIDA DRIVEN ONLY IN NON-SALT, SNOW CONDITIONS OF FLORIDA HAS TOTAL CORROSION OF STRUT TOWER AND STRUT ACCESSORIES TO THE POINT THAT STRUT IS NOT CONNECTED DUE TO THE CORROSION AND PERFORATION OF STRUT TOWER CONNECTION POINTS.

WITH CHRYSLER NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE CORRECTION OR REPLACEMENT OF THE DEFECTIVE COMPONENTS. COST OF REPAIR AT CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP IS $1,800.00.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND THE DISPLAY SCREEN WENT BLANK. THE CONTACT THEN STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD THEN SEIZE IN PARK, NOT ALLOWING THE GEAR SHIFTER TO SHIFT GEARS. THE CONTACT STATED NO WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO CAROLINA CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (1001 HALSTEAD BLVD, ELIZABETH CITY, NC 27909) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE FUSE BOX NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN INFORMED OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT BACK TO A LOCAL DEALER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 70,000.

WHILE PARKED, ENGINE NOT RUNNING AND UN-OCCUPIED, THE FRONT PASSENGER HEAD REST DEPLOYED. INTERNAL PARKS WERE OBSERVED TO BE BROKEN AND UNABLE TO RETURN THE HEAD REST TO IT'S CLOSED POSITION

THE ACTIVE HEAD RESTRAINT ON THE RIGHT FRONT SEAT INADVERTENTLY DEPLOYED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INVOLVED IN ANY KIND OF IMPACT AND NO AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT TOOK PLACE. THE HEAD RESTRAINT WILL NOT RESET DUE TO THE SLED BRACKET BEING BROKEN.*DT*JB*JB

I HAVE TWO DISTINCT ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS FIRST FRONT WINDOWS WHEN USING THE WINDOW BOTH SIDE WHEN ROLLING UP WINDOW HAS BROKEN LETTING WINDOW FALL BACK DOWN INTO DOOR AND WILL NOT WORK. I HAVE ALREADY REPLACED DRIVER SIDE JULY 2020 AM IN PROCESS OF REPAIRING PASSENGER SIDE JAN-FEN 2021. SECONDLY SIDE DOORS DO NOT ALWAYS SHUT SECURELY AND KEEP CLICKING LIKE THEY ARE STUCK AND WILL NOT LATCH. DOES THIS ON BOTH SIDES MUST GET OUT AND MANUALLY SHUT THE DOORS A FEW TIMES TO GET IT SECURED. THE SIDE DOOR ON DRIVER SIDE DID HAVE TO HAVE ELECTRICAL REPAIRED IN 2020 AS THE DOOR SHUT AND WOULD NOT REOPEN AT ALL. THIS REPAIR WAS DONE BY MY MECHANIC.

BROUGHT VEHICLE TO SHOP BECAUSE I SEEN A PUDDLE OF OIL UNDER THE CAR PARKED IN FRONT OF MY HOME MECHANIC TOOK A LOOK AN SAID THIS IS THE OIL FILTER HOUSING STATED I SEE THIS ALL THE TIME WITH TOWN AND COUNTRY, CHEROKEE, AND DURANGO IT'S A CHEAP PLASTIC THAT GETS BRITTLE IN THE HEAT AND BRAKES

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. VAN WAS ORIGINALLY DRIVING FINE AND NOT MAKING ANY NOISES. NEXT DAY WHILE DRIVING TO GET THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT DIAGNOSED ON THE CITY STREETS, THE VAN WOULDN'T SHIFT GEARS AND STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. AFTER AN ATTEMPT TO TURN THE VAN ON AND OFF TO GET IT OUT OF THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD, THE VAN WOULD MOVE FORWARD AND THEN SLOWLY DECELERATE. WHEN TOWED TO THE REPAIR SHOP, IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE TRANSMISSION. THE DIAGNOSIS IS A TRANSMISSION PUMP FAILURE. THERE IS A RECALL DUE TO TRANSMISSION PUMP FAILURES HOWEVER WE WERE TOLD OUR VIN # WASN'T AFFECTED. $3700 LATER WE HAD TO GET A REBUILT TRANSMISSION OUT OF POCKET WHEN I BELIEVE THIS WAS RELATED TO THE RECALL.

BACK WINDSHIELD SHATTERED SUDDENLY. NOTHING HIT IT. DEFECTIVE. SHATTERED DUE TO WEAK CORNER/ DEFECTIVE. SEATBELT BUCKLE BROKEN IN BACK SEAT. DRIVER HEADREST DEPLOYED. TRANSMISSION WENT UP AT 80,000 MILES.

PASSENGER HEADREST ASSEMBLY RANDOMLY ENGAGED SOME SORT OF "AIRBAG" MODE. TWO SPRINGS DEPLOYED THE HEADREST FORWARD RAPIDLY

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS RUNNING WITH THE CHARGING PORT BUTTON ENGAGED AND THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL BURNING ODOR DETECTED. THE VEHICLE SPONTANEOUSLY CAUGHT FIRE. THERE WERE NO REPORTED INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT LOT. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. THERE WAS NO POLICE REPORT FILED. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED WHERE INFORMED AN INVESTIGATOR WOULD INSPECT THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 103,000.

THE HEAD REST ON THE DRIVER'S SEAT DEPLOYED WHILE SITTING IN OUR DRIVEWAY, UNOCCUPIED. IT IS THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE ACTIVE HEAD REST INADVERTENT DEPLOYMENT DETAILED IN PE19-014.

DRIVER HEADREST DEPLOYED RANDOMLY. CAR WASN'T IN ANY SORT OF COLLISION. PLASTIC SUPPORT INSIDE HEADREST FAILED. PLASTIC HOLDS SMALL BAR THAT ENGAGES WITH ELECTRONIC POWERED CLIPS.

CAR WAS RUNNING PERFECTLY AT 70 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY AND ENGINE CUT OFF WITHOUT ANY WARNING OR INDICATION OF POOR OPERATION, RESULTING IMMEDIATE LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND LOSS POWER BRAKES. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE IN 12 DAYS ON NOV 14 AND NOW NOV 26 WHILE DRIVING TO WHOLE FAMILY TO THANKSGIVING. MECHANIC HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. VERY SCARY. CAR HAS 76K MILES. CAR WILL START RIGHT BACK UP AFTER 20 MIN AND RUN PERFECTLY FINE. CAR HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED WITH EXTENDED WARRANTY.

HEADLIGHTS KEEP GOING OUT. I'VE HAD BOTH LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS REPLACED TWICE IN LESS THAN 3 MONTHS. HIGH BEAMS, SIGNAL, PARKING LIGHTS ALL WORK AS THEY SHOULD. I TOOK IT TO A SHOP AND THEY SAID THE HID HEADLIGHT BALLAST NEEDED REPLACED. NO POWER GOING TO LOW BEAMS. HAD IT REPLACED AND LIGHTS WORKED FINE FOR ABOUT 2 MONTHS. NOW I'M HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AGAIN. I JUST BOUGHT THE VAN IN JULY. I'VE SEARCHED THE PROBLEM AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A RECURRING ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL.

SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT WARNING, MY TRANSMISSION FAILED. NO WARNING NOISES, NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. I WAS ON A COUNTRY ROAD WITH MY 7 YEAR OLD SON IN THE CAR AND NO HELP FOR MILES. HAD WE BEEN ON A HIGHWAY, WE MAY HAVE BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN I HEARD A WHINING/ WINDING SOUND. THE ENGINE REVVED HIGH AND WOULDN'T MOVE FORWARD. I PULLED OVER TO THE SHOULDER, TURNED MY VEHICLE OFF, TURNED IT BACK ON AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED. I CALLED A TOW TRUCK TO GET MY VEHICLE TO A REPAIR SHOP WHERE I WAS TOLD THAT THE COMPUTER IS SHOWING AN ERROR CODE FOR THE TRANSMISSION.

CAR SHUTS OFF RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING. IT SHUTS OFF BOTH AT SLOW SPEEDS SUCH AS DRIVELING IN A PARKING LOT AND AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. ALL POWER SHUTS OFF INCLUDING POWER STEERING AND THE BREAKS WON'T WORK. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME 4 TIMES WHILE DRIVING AND POSES A HUGE SAFETY RISK. I HAVE ONLY NARROWLY MISSED SEVERAL ACCIDENTS DUE TO THIS.

THE VEHICLE IS ONLY 5 YEARS OLD, WE CAME FROM A SHORT 4 DAYS VACATION IN ELKO NEVADA, WE ARE HEADING HOME BUT AFTER PASSING DONNER PASS APPROACHING COLFAX THE ENGINE STARTED MAKING A CONSTANT CLICKING NOISE WHEN STARTING THE ENGINE, RPM SHOOTS UP BUT THE VEHICLE STRUGGLES TO SPEED UP AND COME TO THE POINT THAT THE VEHICLE IS NOT MOVING ANYMORE EVEN IT WAS IN THE DRIVE MODE UNLESS YOU TRY TO RESTART THE ENGINE, THEN IT WILL MOVE JUST A FEW METERS AWAY AND THE SAME STORY. THAT'S WHY I DECIDED TO CALL ON AAA TOWING SERVICE EVEN BECAUSE IT DIDN'T WORK OUT. NEED YOUR HELP AND ASSISTANCE REGARDING THIS MATTER.

WHINING SOUND THEN ABRUPT FAILURE OF TRANSMISSION TO PERFORM. FIELD DRIVE, BATON ROUGE, LA AND VICINITY.

I WAS DRIVING ALONG IN MOTION, AN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR JUST COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN. THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP AND THE BRAKE GOT TIGHT. THANK GOD I WAS ON A SLOW STREET SO I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE CAR AND PUT IT IN PARK AND THE CAR STARTED RIGHT BACK UP AGAIN. THIS HAPPENED TO ME ONCE IN OCTOBER AND ONCE AGAIN A MONTH LATER IN NOVEMBER. IN NOVEMBER I WAS ON A REGULAR STREET IN TRAFFIC AND THE CAR SHUT DOWN. I WAS ABLE TO PUT IT IN PARK AND START IT BACK UP AGAIN. THIS IS SO SCARY AND A SAFETY PROBLEM. THANK GOD I DIDN'T CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.

MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY STATIONARY, AND AS I WALKED TO THE VEHICLE TO ENTER THE CAR WITH MY 2 YOUNG CHILDREN AND AS WE APPROACHED I HEARD A LOAD POP NOISE. I FOUND THE AHR HEADREST HAD DEPLOYED, WITH NO ONE TOUCHING OR MOVING THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT AND THE HEADREST HAS NEVER BEEN RESET FOR ANY REASON. THE PLASTIC JOINT MECHANISM AND SPRING THAT HOLDS IT IN AND TOGETHER CRACKED AND BROKE. I CALLED CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP AND THEY WILL NOT FIX OR REPLACE UNLESS I PAY OUT OF POCKET, APPROX $1000 FOR 1 HEADREST. THE GENTLEMAN ON THE PHONE ACKNOWLEDGED THAT HE KNEW OF THIS HAPPENING OFTEN IN CHRYSLER T&C VANS, HOWEVER COULD NOT HELP ME AS MY WARRANTY IS NOW UP AND THERE IS NOT A RECALL. I AM TERRIFIED TO DRIVE MY VAN NOW, KNOWING THAT THE DRIVERS SIDE HEADREST AHR MAY DEPLOY AT ANYTIME NO WARNING AND CAUSE INJURIES TO ME, WHICH COULD CAUSE ME TO CRASH MY VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING ENDANGERING MY CHILDREN AND FAMILY. I HAVE ZIPTIED BOTH THE PASSENGER HEADREST AND DRIVERS HEAD REST SHUT. THE DRIVERS HEADREST IS ZIPTIED IN CASE IT RANDOMLY DEPLOYS AND THE PASSENGERS IS ZIP TIED AS THE HEAD REST INTERNAL PLASTIC MECHANISMS ARE BROKEN.

PASSENGER FRONT HEADREST EXPLODED WHILE STATIONARY. WE WERE AT A STOP LIGHT, THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT OR IMPACT. IT CANNOT BE RESET AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I DO NOT FEEL LIKE WE SHOULD HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET WHEN THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE AND A SAFETY ISSUE.

AT 115,000 MILES, THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION ON MY 2015 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY TOURING FAILED. IT STARTED WITH A SHUDDER, AND THEN HIGH PITCHED WHINING, AND THEN IT SLIPPED OUT OF GEAR. IT HAPPENED VERY FAST, AND WITHOUT WARNING. WE WERE ON CITY ROADS, DRIVING SLOW AND STOPPING AT INTERSECTIONS. HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO A CHRYSLER DEALER. DEALER SAYS THE TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THEY ARE INSISTING ON REPLACING THE AC CONDENSER AS WELL, OTHERWISE THEY CLAIM CHRYSLER WON'T HONOR THE NEW TRANSMISSION WARRANTY (APPARENTLY THE TRANSMISSION LINES RUN THROUGH THE AC CONDENSER). TWO OTHER IDENTICAL MINIVANS ARE AT THAT SAME DEALER FOR IDENTICAL REPAIRS. MINE HAD THE MOST MILEAGE AT 115,000. THE TWO OTHERS HAD FEWER MILES. ALL NEED A COMPLETE TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT. $4400.

FRONT PASSENGER HEADREST DEPLOYED WHILE DRIVING 15 MPH ON SMOOTH SIDE STREET. NO IMPACT WHATSOEVER.

THE DRIVERS SIDE HEADREST DEPLOYED OPEN FOR NO REASON. THE VEHICLE WAS SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY NOT MOVING.

THIS IS AN ADDENDUM TO COMPLAINT # 11361493. THE ACTUAL DATE WAS THE PREVIOUS DATE, 09/25/2020. NO OTHER RESTRAINTS OR AIR BAGS DEPLOYED, ONLY THE FRONT PASSENGER HEAD RESTRAINT. THERE WERE TWO PEOPLE IN THE CAR, THE DRIVER AND FRONT PASSENGER. THE PASSENGER WAS WACKED BY THE HEAD RESTRAINT BUT DID NOT RECEIVE ANY INJURY. THE LOCAL CHRYSLER DEALER STATED TO REPLACE THE HEAD RESTRAINT WOULD COST $680. THIS IS THE STATUS TO DATE 10//09/2020.

ON9/16/2020 NOTED A HIGH PITCHED WHINE STARTED WHEN BACKING OUT OF DRIVEWAY AND CONTINUED ON THE HIGHWAY APPROXIMATELY 25 MILES TO WORK. AFTER WORK, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND WITHIN 1-1.5 MILES ON LOCAL SIDE STREETS FROM MY WORK, THE CAR BEGAN HAVING TROUBLE WITH ACCELERATION AND BOGGING. I WAS ABLE TO PULL INTO A LOCAL GARAGE. THANKFULLY, I DID NOT TAKE THE HIGHWAY OR THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN DISASTROUS. 9/17/2020 THE SERVICE GARAGE HAD IDENTIFIED NEED TO REPLACE TRANSMISSION. IT ONLY HAS 74000 MILES ON IT AND OUT EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED RECENTLY. THE DAY PRIOR TO THIS HAPPENING, A WINDOW MOLDING SUDDENLY FLEW OFF OUR DRIVERS SIDE WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE SHUTOFF CAUSING THE POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES TO CEASE OPERATION. AFTER GAINING CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, THE DRIVER WAS ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE LOCAL THE DEALER UMANSKY DODGE CHRYSLER OF CHARLOTTESVILLE LOCATED AT 960 HILTON HEIGHTS RD, CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA 22901, WHO DIAGNOSED THE VEHICLE AND STATED THAT THE PCM WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE PCM WAS REPLACED AND THE FAILURE WAS REMEDIED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 74,500.

THE CAR HAS 25,000 MILES ON IT. STARTING OUT FROM MY HOUSE DOWN A HILL THE POWER STEERING AND BRAKES WERE NOT WORKING AS APPARENTLY THE ENGINE STOPPED. I RESTARTED AND DROVE ABOUT 15 MILES AND WAS ON I-26 IN TN AT 65 MPH AND THE ENGINE RPM DROPPED TO 0, POWER BRAKES AND STEERING WERE INOPERABLE BUT I MANAGED TO GET ONTO THE SHOULDER BUT WAS IN A DANGEROUS SPOT WITH TRAFFIC SPEEDING BY. CAR WOULD START BUT I WAS AFRAID TO DRIVE IT ASS IT WAS NOT SAFE IF IT CUT OUT AGAIN ON THE INTERSTATE HIGHWAY. HAD IT TOWED. STILL NOT REPAIRED AND MECHANIC SAID IT SHOWED A CODE OF BOTH BANK SENSORS. E HAS NOT FOUND THE PROBLEM AS OF YET BUT I UNDERSTAND CHRYSLER HAS HAD ISSUES WITH ENGINE STOPPAGE. THIS IS DANGEROUS AS MY WIFE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO CONTROL THE HARD STEERING AND BRAKES AND LIKELY WOULD HAVE WRECKED.

THE LOCK FAULT ACTUATOR MAKES A BUZZING SOUND WHEN LOCKING OR UNLOCKING

REAR PASSENGER SIDE DOOR DOES NOT LATCH PROPERLY SOME OF THE TIME. MOST THE TIMES IT DOES IT WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY. BUT HAS HAPPENED WHEN I HIT A BUMP DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD.

DRIVER SEAT GOT STUCK IN UP POSITION. SEAT WILL NOT GO DOWN AND PEDDLES WON'T ADJUST. THE AIR BAG IN THE HEAD REST DISCHARGED WHILE SITTING AT A RED LIGHT. NOT VERY SATISFIED.388RKS

ACTIVE HEAD RESTRAINT DEPLOYED FOR NO REASON. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY IN MY DRIVEWAY

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IDLING AT A DRIVE THRU, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESPOND. THE DRIVER STATED NO WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE DRIVER WAS ABLE TO DRIVE TO A NEARBY PARKING LOT AND PARK THE VEHICLE. THE DRIVER CALLED THE CONTACT SO HE COULD CONTINUE DRIVING THE VEHICLE TO THEIR RESIDENCE. THE CONTACT STATED HE THEN EXPERIENCED THE FAILURE HIMSELF AND ALSO STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DRIVABLE. THE CONTACT CALLED ARRIGO CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM SAWGRASS LOCATED AT 5901 MADISON AVE, TAMARAC, FL 33321, (954) 515-5800 AND WERE MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED AS OF YET. UPON INVESTIGATION, THE CONTACT ASSOCIATED THE FAILURE WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V461000 (POWER TRAIN), HOWEVER THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 110,000.

WHILE MOVING THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT BACKWARD, THE ACTIVE HEAD RESTRAINT ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE SET OFF. WHILE LOOKING INSIDE THE HEADREST, BROKEN PLASTIC WAS OBSERVED. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY (IN PARK AND TURNED OFF) AT THE TIME OF INCIDENT.

REAR EVAPORATOR CORE CORRODED AND LEAKED. NEEDED REPLACEMENT AS THE AC WAS NO LONGER WORKING. 69,000 MILES. BOTH THE REPAIR SHOP (MIDAS) AND AN AUTO DEALER CONFIRMED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM - AND BOTH INDEPENDENTLY COMMENTED ON BAD DESIGN - THAT THE CORE IS DIRECTLY EXPOSED TO ROAD SALT AND UNDERCARRIAGE MOISTURE, FOSTERING CORROSION. REPAIR COST WAS $849.72.

WE WERE IN THE VAN THAT THE PASSENGER FRONT HEADREST JUST SHOT OUT AND ALMOST HIT MY WIFE IN THE HEAD. TOOK TO THE DEALER AND FOUND THEY WANTED OVER 800 FOR A NEW HEADREST. I FEEL LIKE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED.

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND WITHIN MINUTES IT WASN'T MOVING, ONLY IN RESERVE. THE ENGINE LIGHT WHEN CHECK HAD MANY ERRORS MESSAGES ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION LINES AND PUMP AND ANYTHING ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION BASICALLY. THE FLUID WASN'T DRY PUT WE ADDED MORE JUST IN CASE, NO CHANGE.

THE PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR ACTUATOR IS GOING BAD AND IS FAILING TO UNLOCK MAKING THIS VEHICLE HAZARDOUS FOR MY CHILDREN WHO SIT IN THE BACK SEAT. WHEN THE ACTUATOR FAILS, THE DOOR WILL NOT UNLOCK AND SUBSEQUENTLY WILL NOT OPEN MAKING EXITING THE VEHICLE IN AN EMERGENCY MUCH MORE DIFFICULT FOR REAR SEAT PASSENGERS.

WHILE CAR WAS PARKED. ACTIVE HEAD RESTRAINT DEPLOYED UNEXPECTEDLY FOR NO REASON. NO SUDDEN STOP OR COLLISION OF ANY KIND.

THE HEADREST ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE SPONTANEOUSLY DEPLOYED WITHOUT WARNING WHILE I WAS DRIVING ONE DAY. THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT, SUDDEN STOP, OR ANYTHING OF THE SORT. IT SIMPLY OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING. THANK GOD NO ONE WAS RIDING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AT THE TIME. AFTER IT HAPPENED, MY HUSBAND AND I LOOKED UP THIS ISSUE ONLINE AND DISCOVERED HUNDREDS OF FOLKS THAT STATED THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED TO THEM IN THEIR CHRYSLER VEHICLES. THIS HEADREST IS SUPPOSED TO BE A SAFETY FEATURE (WHICH WE KNEW NOTHING ABOUT), BUT IT SEEMS TO BE THE EXACT OPPOSITE. THE PLASTIC HOLDING THE PIN IN PLACE SIMPLY BROKE. THERE IS NO WAY TO PUSH THE HEADREST BACK TOGETHER, SO NOW IT IS SITTING DEPLOYED CAUSING THE PASSENGER'S HEAD TO BE PUSHED FORWARD.

I WAS DRIVING ON A SIDE STREET AT APPROXIMATELY 20MPH WHEN A VERY LOUD NOISE AND IMPACT TO THE BACK OF MY HEAD HAPPENED. I SWERVED AND SLAMMED THE BRAKES. AFTER I WAS STOPPED, I PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK TO INVESTIGATE THE SITUATION. MY AHR (ACTIVE HEAD REST) HAD SPONTANEOUSLY DEPLOYED. I WAS NOT IN AN ACCIDENT. THE DEPLOYMENT STRUCK THE BACK OF MY HEAD WITH SUCH FORCE THAT IT SENT ME FORWARD. I INSTANTLY GOT A HEADACHE AND LASTED FOR 3 DAYS.*DT CONSUMER STATED HER HEAD "POPS" IF SHE IS STILL FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME AND MOVE FORWARD/DOWN.*JB

I WAS DRIVING DOWN A CITY STREET AND THE DRIVER'S SIDE HEADREST SPONTANEOUSLY DEPLOYED FORCING MY NECK AND HEAD FORWARD CAUSING WHIPLASH,HEADACHES AND NECK PAIN. I THOUGHT SOMETHING EXPLODED IN THE BACK OF MY VAN.*DT CONSUMER STATED LOCAL DEALER WAS CONTACTED BUT WERE OF NO HELP.*JB

DOOR LOCK BUZZES WHEN OPENING LOCKS ON AUTOMATIC LOCK. PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR. CAR IS STATIONARY, PARKED AND OPENING DOORS WHILE LOCKED.
