2010 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY Complaints

HEADLIGHTS FLICKER THEN TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING. DOES NOT TURN BACK ON EVEN IF YOU TURN ON AND OFF.

IT BEGAN WITH THE FRONT WIPERS COMING ON (AS IF IT WAS RAINING) ON A SUNNY DAY.. AND THE SWITCH WOULDN'T SHUT IT OFF. HAVE TO PULL THE FUSE TO GET THEM TO STOP. THEN THIS PROGRESSED INTO NOT CRANKING, AS IF DEAD BATTERY. I BELIEVE MY PROBLEM IS IN THE KEYLESS SWITCH.. AS THE BATTERY IS NEW, AND I'VE HAD BOTH BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR CHECKED. BOTH OK!

WHEN DRIVING, THE ENGINE SWITCH TURNS OFF WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING ON A STREET. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. THERE IS A RECALL WITH SELECTED VIN NUMBERS WITH THIS ISSUE BUT NOT OURS. THE RECALL IS CHRYSLER RECALL R03 (FORMERLY L25). WE WOULD LIKE OUR VIN NUMBER TO BE ADDED TO THE RECALL LIST.

VEHICLE STALLS BETWEEN 20-40 MPH ON CITY STREETS AND THE TRACTION ICON COMES ON. POWER STEERING IMMEDIATELY GOES OUT AND THE VEHICLE MUST BE PULLED OVER AND RESTARTED. PROBLEM WAS VERY INTERMITTENT WHEN IT FIRST APPEARED 3/31/18 BUT NOW HAPPENS ON ALMOST EVERY TRIP, TYPICALLY NEAR THE BEGINNING OF THE TRIP (11/21/18). MECHANIC HAS FAILED TO REPLICATE, DIAGNOSE, OR FIX THE PROBLEM.

4.0 L V6 ENGINE 1) WHILE TURNING RIGHT FROM A STOP ONTO HIGHWAY, THE POWER STEERING FAILED. - I DROVE INTO THE PASSING LANE, LUCKILY NO ONE WAS IN THAT LANE AT THE TIME. SO THE CAR WAS SPEEDING UP 10/30/18 TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT BRIEFLY ON 2) CAR IN MOTION, DECELLING FROM 35 MPH, TURNING LEFT ACROSS ON COMING TRAFFIC, THE POWER STEERING & THE POWER BREAKS WENT OUT. HARD TO TURN & HARD TO BREAK, BARELY STOPPED IN TIME. HAD TO TURN OFF & BACK ON AGAIN 11/17/18 TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT BRIEFLY ON 3) FOR THE PAST 6 MONTHS, THERE HAVE BEEN OCCASIONS WHERE MY CAR WOULD NOT START UNTIL LIKE THE 7 OR 10TH TURN OVER OF THE FOB. CAR NOT IN MOTION

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER'S DOOR, FRONT PASSENGER DOOR, AND THE SLIDING DOORS ON BOTH SIDES OF THE VEHICLE FAILED TO SECURE ELECTRONICALLY. THE CONTACT HAD TO CONSTANTLY CHECK THE KEY FOB TO ENSURE THAT THE DOORS WERE SECURED. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, THE KEY FOB FAILED TO SECURE THE DOORS AND THEY HAD TO BE CLOSED MANUALLY. IN ADDITION, THE REAR SLIDING DOORS FAILED TO ELECTRONICALLY REMAIN CLOSED AND OPENED AFTER BEING CLOSED SEVERAL TIMES. THE DEALER (MONTGOMERY CHEVROLET, 5325 PRESTON HWY, LOUISVILLE, KY 40213, (502) 968-6111) WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 136,000.

FIRST PROBLEM IS THE DRIVERS SIDE BACK DOOR DOES NOT OPEN. IT STOPPED WORKING ELECTRONICALLY AND MANUALLY AS WELL AS THE WINDOW. THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH FLICKER OFF AND ON, RADIO TURNS ON AND OFF, THE VAN DOOR DINGS, AND IT DIES WHILE SLOWING DOWN OR EVEN WHEN DRIVING. IT HAPPENS IN TOWN OR ON THE HIGHWAY

WHILE DRIVING UNDER 40 MILES AN HOUR THE CAR WILL STALE WITH NO WARNING AT ALL. I'VE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER AND THERE IS NO ERROR CODE. I HAVE READ REVIEWS OF A POSSIBLE BAD EGR VALVE BUT THAT THIS MAY NOT BE THE PROBLEM. TOOK IT TO ANOTHER MECHANIC AND HE THINKS IT COULD HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE IGNITION SWITCH SLIPPING. NOT SURE THE ISSUE BUT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AS IS. THE CAR LOOSES POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES WHEN IT STALLS. HAD THE CATALYTIC CONVERTERS REPLACED LAST YEAR BECAUSE THE DEALER SAID THAT WAS THE ISSUE BUT PROBLEM HAS STILL PERSISTED OVER THE PAST YEAR BUT NOT ALL THE TIME SO IT'S BEEN HARD TO DETECT. THIS PROBLEM NEVER HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR IS STATIONARY OR DRIVING OVER 40 MPH. IT'S ALWAYS WHILE CITY DRIVING UNDER 40.

THE ENGINE STOPS AT LOW SPEEDS, NEVER AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, NOT ALWAYS BUT THREE TIMES IN THE LAST 2 WEEKS, I HAVE TO RESTART THE ENGINE, THIS COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.

VEHICLE STALLS WHILE DRIVING THE CAR ON CITY STREET AND HIGHWAY. NO WARNING AND IT LOSES ALL POWER. STEERING WHEEL LOCKS AND THE ONLY THING I CAN DO IS BRAKE TO STOP THE CAR. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES NOW WITH MY KIDS IN THE CAR WITH ME. NOT SAFE AT ALL AND FOR SOME REASON MY VIN IS NOT IN THE RECALL ABOUT THIS ISSUE.
