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.

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

VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON A HIGHWAY. MY 2015 TOWN AND COUNTRY WAS NOT EQUIPPED WITH A SPARE TIRE. WE HIT A STONE THAT PUNCTURED THE SIDE WALL OF A FRONT TIRE. THERE WAS NO WAY THE COMPRESSOR PROVIDED WITH THE VEHICLE WOULD INFLATE THE TIRE. THERE NEEDS TO BE A SPARE TIRE IN A VEHICLE. THE FIRST HALF DOZEN CARS I OWNED HAD A FULL SIZE SPARE. SINCE THEN THEY HAD ECONO SPARES (DONUTS). THE LAST TIME I HAD A FLAT, I WAS ABLE TO CHANGE TIRES AND MAKE IT HOME. THE PUNCTURE I ENCOUNTERED THIS TIME HAPPENED 11:00 PM, NO ONE TO GIVE ASSISTANCE. NEAREST TOWING SERVICE WAS 20 MILES AWAY. WHY WAS CAR COMPANIES ALLOWED TO MAKE A SPARE TIRE A $350 OPTION? THE FANCY PUMP THEY PROVIDES THAT COMES WITH A RECHARGE CANISTER COST MORE THAN A SPARE TIRE. YOU PEOPLE REQUIRE SEAT BELTS AND AIR BAGS. WHAT HAPPENED TO THE SAFETY SPARE? WHAT WOULD MY WIFE HAVE ONE IF I WASN'T THERE. NO SPARE IS MORE DANGEROUS THAN NO SEAT BELT. DO A SAFETY RECALL AND REQUIRE THE ADDITION OF SAFETY SPARE TIRES. MY WIFE COULD HAVE CHANGED THE TIRE.
