2014 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY Complaints

I RECENTLY PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE, WITHIN A FEW DAYS THE CAR COMPLETELY FROZE, UNABLE TO START THE ENGINE, I MUST SAY THE TEMPERATURE WAS NORMAL ABOUT 70 F. THERE WERE NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS ON, NOTHING I COULD DO TO START IT UP WORKED. I SIMPLY WAITED FOR HELP THAT NEVER SHOWED UP. TODAY, WED FEB 26TH, 20, IT HAS HAPPENED AGAIN, THE SAME THING, THE ENGINE WOULDN'T START UP, I MUST SAY WITHOUT ANY ENGINE LIGHTS ON..I WAITED FOR 45 MINUTES AND THE ENGINE STARTED RUNNING LIKE NORMALLY DOES. I AM AFRAID TO BE STRANDED AWAY FROM THE NEAREST REPAIR SHOP, OR IT MAY HAPPEN AGAIN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT. I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE IT IF YOU WOULD LOOK INTO THIS MECHANICAL. PROBLEM. I MUST ADD, I REPLACED THE CAR BATTERY YESTERDAY 2/25/20. PLEASE NOTE THIS PROBLEM HAPPENS WHEN I'M STATIONARY, WITHOUT THE CAR MOVING, NO WARNING LIGHTS ON.

RECEIVE OBD ERROR CYLINDER 4 MISFIRE (P0304). MECHANICS HAVE REPLACED ALL PLUGS & IGNITION COIL ON CYLINDER 4. CEL WITH SAME ERROR CAME BACK. ROUGH IDLE AT STATIONARY POSITION. CAR AS 127K MILES ON IT. CHRYSLER EXTENDED ENGINE WARRANTIES ON 2011-2013 T&CS FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE FOR EVEN # CYLINDER HEAD MISFIRES. WOULD LIKE TO SEE IF WARRANTY COULD BE EXTENDED FOR 2014 TO FIX THIS ISSUE.

THE PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR LOCK STOPPED FUNCTIONING TRAPPING MY CHILD INSIDE. WE HAD TO MOVE THE VEHICLE DUE TO WHERE IT WAS PARKED AS WE COULD NOT EXIT ON THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR. THE DOOR ACTUATOR JAMMED AND PULLING THE DOOR HANDLE WOULD NOT RELEASE THE LOCK. AFTER FORCING THE LOCK ACTUATOR TO RELEASE THE ACTUATOR STILL ACTS UP AND MAKES A BUZZING SOUND. THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE ON THE 2014 THROUGH 2016 TOWN AND COUNTRY AS I'VE ENCOUNTERED HUNDREDS OF OTHER POSTS ABOUT THIS SAME ISSUE. HAD THERE BEEN AN EMERGENCY IT WOULD HAVE BEEN IMPOSSIBLE TO EXIT THE VEHICLE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE FOR THE REAR PASSENGERS.

WHILE THE CAR WAS PARKED THE ACTIVE HEADREST DEPLOYED HITTING THE DRIVER IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD AFTER THEY GOT IN THE CAR AND WERE GETTING READY TO DRIVE OFF. THE METAL ROD REMAINED IN THE ENGAGED POSITION IN THE BRACKET BUT THE PLASTIC EDGES THAT HOLD THE METAL ROD TO THE HEADREST BROKE WHICH CAUSED IT TO DEPLOY.

I HAD MY TRANSMISSION GO OUT WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AT A SPEED OF 65 MPH. I CAME ON HIGHWAY AND IT SOUNDED LIKE A HIGH PITCH WIND UP TOY AND THEN IT JUST WENT OUT. I ENDED UP ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD FOR 3 1/2 HRS. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD CHRYSLER DOES NOT ALLOW NEW TRANSMISSIONS TO GO INTO VEHICLE, THEY ONLY WILL ALLOW REBUILT OR REFURBISHED CHRYSLER TRANSMISSION TO BE SUBMITTED FOR WARRANTY REIMBURSEMENT (PER WHAT THE SERVICE PERSON TOLD ME AT DEALERSHIP). 1ST REPLACEMENT TRANSMISSION ARRIVED WITH METAL SHAVINGS IN IT FROM THE START. 2ND TRANSMISSION WAS PUT IN BUT HAD ISSUES IMMEDIATELY. CAR IS IN SHOP NOW 4 MONTHS LATER WITH METAL SHAVINGS IN IT AGAIN. I AM TRYING TO GET CHRYSLER TO PAY FOR THE DEFECTIVE TRANSMISSIONS THAT ARE BEING PUT INTO THESE VEHICLES UNDER THE WARRANTY . THESE TRANSMISSIONS SHOULD NOT BE REPLACED WITH DEFECTIVE, USED, AND REFURBISHED TRANSMISSION. THE DEFECTIVE TRANSMISSION SHOULD BE REPLACED WITH NEW TRANSMISSION TO KEEP FAMILIES SAFE. THIS IS A SEVERE SAFETY HAZARD WHEN TRANSMISSION GOES OUT WHILE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND TO HAVE THESE IN VEHICLES THAT ARE BEING DRIVEN WITH FAMILIES ON HIGHWAYS AT HIGH SPEEDS.
