TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 95,000.

WINDOW GOES DOWN WITHOUT ISSUE, BUT IT ONLY GOES UP INTERMITTENTLY, ESPECIALLY IF THE AUTO DOWN FEATURE IS USED AND WINDOW IS ALLOWED TO GO THE WHOLE WAY DOWN. THIS IS HAPPENING ON BOTH THE PASSENGER AND DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT WINDOWS.

AIR BAG INDICATOR LIGHTS UP INTERMITTENTLY INDICATING A SENSOR ISSUE. THERE WAS ALREADY A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE AND ACCORDING TO BIN REPORT THE ISSUE WAS CORRECTED, BUT THE ISSUE HAS CONTINUED. THE INDICATOR LIGHT COMES ON WHETHER MOVING OR NOT.

THE TRANSMISSION WENT BAD WITH LESS THAN 87,000 MILES AFTER ALL WARRANTIES EXPIRED. THIS VEHICLE WAS LIGHTLY DRIVEN AND WELL CARED FOR. WHILE DRIVING THE VAN, WE NOTICED A STRANGE SOUND COMING FROM BENEATH THE VEHICLE. IT WAS PROFESSIONALLY DIAGNOSED AS A FAULTY PLANETARY GEAR ISSUE I.E. THE TRANSMISSION WAS BAD.

I WAS DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 65MPH. ON THE HIGHWAY. ALL OF A SUDDEN, MY INSTRUMENT PANEL STARTED TO FLICKER( THE LIGHTS) AS WELL AS MY HEADLIGHTS. THEN ALL GAUGES BEGAN TO ABRUPTLY MALFUNCTION. INCLUDING: THE SPEEDOMETER'S NEEDLE STARTED SPINNING 360 DEGREES OVER AND OVER. FORWARDS AND BACKWARDS. THE FUEL GAUGE WENT TO E. THE TEMP. GAUGE WENT TO COOLEST INDICATION. IT CONTINUED EXTREME MALFUNCTION ALL THE WAY TO MY DESTINATION. WHEN I STOPPED, TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE, THEN RESTARTED, THE GAUGES ( EXCEPT SPEEDOMETER) RETURNED TO NORMAL FUNCTION. I PERFORMED MINI DIAGNOSTIC UTILIZING THE (RESET) MILEAGE TAB. IT FAILED TO FIX THE PROBLEM. HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING MY SPEED GOING ON 6 MONTHS NOW. VERY NERVE RACKING, AND DANGEROUS.

ELECTRIC DOORS ARE NOT OPENING ARE CLOSING CORRECTLY DRIVER SIDE DOOR IS LOCKED AND WANT OPEN PASSENGER DOOR BUTTONS WORK SOMETIMES KEY FOB WORKS THE DOORS SOMETIMES THE SLIDING DOORS ARE NOT WORKING CORRECTLY. WHILE SITTING STATIONERY.

AFTER FILLING THE GAS TANK ON MY VAN, IT STALLS A COUPLE MINUTES LATER AFTER PULLING OUT ONTO THE HIGHWAY, THIS HAS HAPPENED THE LAST 2 TIMES IT WAS FILLED. I TAKES A FEW TRIES TO GET IT TO RESTART. BOTH TIMES I HAVE ALMOST BEEN REAR ENDED. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM. I READ WHERE THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM ON OTHER YEAR CHRYSLER VANS AND NOW ITS HAPPENING TO MINE.
