2010 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY Complaints

EVER SINCE CHRYSLER ISSUED A RECALL AND REPLACED THE IGNITION THE CAR STALLS WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. ALL POWER IS LOST AND WE HAVE TO PULL OVER AND HOPE THE CAR STARTS. USUALLY IT DOES HOWEVER SOMETIMES IT REQUIRES A JUMP START. IT'S NOT A BAD BATTERY! I HAVE HAD IT TESTED AND I CONTINUED TO USE THE SAME BATTERY TO THIS DAY. OVER A ONE YEAR TIME I HAVE LOGGED PROBABLY 50 STALL EVENTS. MOISTURE HUMIDITY SEEMS TO MAKE IT WORSE. LEARNED THIS WHEN I MOVED FROM MAINE TO TUCSON. BUT NOW IT'S STALLING A LOT HERE IN TUCSON ALTHOUGH IT IS MONSOON SEASON. THE DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS DUE TO THE WEIGHT OF KEYS HANGING FROM THE IGNITION KEY, THE PROBLEM IS I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW AND HAVE NEVER HAD ANYTHING ATTACHED TO THE IGNITION KEY. I ONLY CARRY THE IGNITION KEY BY ITSELF. NICE TRY CHRYSLER, BUT YOU ARE WRONG. I NEED TO STATE THIS STALLING PROBLEM DID NOT OCCUR UNTIL CHRYSLER ISSUED A RECALL TO PREVENT STALLING INSTRUCTING THE DEALERSHIP TO REPLACE THE KEYS AND IGNITION. CHRYSLER SAYS IT''S MY PROBLEM I NEED TO PAY TO FIX, I SAY THEY CREATED THE PROBLEM AND NEED TO PAY TO FIX. MAYBE THE NTSB SHOULD INVESTIGATE! DIDN'T GM HAVE A PROBLEM LIKE THIS?

IGNITION SWITCH TURNS OFF WHILE DRIVING AND WHEN VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF, KEY FOB IS STUCK IN ACC POSITION, THUS WHEN KEY IS TAKEN OUT, IT KILLS THE BATTERY NOT ALLOWING VEHICLE TO START

WHILE DRIVING, THE ENGINE CUT OUT AND I LOST POWER TO STEERING AND BRAKES. THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT THEN CAME ON WHEN I FINALLY PULLED OVER. AFTER RESETTING, THE VEHICLE STARTED AND DROVE NORMALLY. IF THIS HAPPENED ON A BUSY ROAD, SERIOUS INJURY WOULD HAVE OCCURRED TO THE PASSENGERS IN MY VEHICLE AND ANYONE ELSE I WOULD HAVE STRUCK DUE TO LOSS OF CONTROL.

TROUBLE STARTING VEHICLE, FRONT WINDOW ROLLS DOWN AND LIGHTS TURN ON WHEN THE VEHICLE IS OFF

I HAVE 2010 TOWN AND COUNTRY THAT HAS A INTERMITTENT CRANKING PROBLEM. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO TWO CHRYSLER DEALERS AND THEY HAVE KEPT IT FOR SEVERAL DAYS AND THEN THEY TELL ME THEY CAN'T FIND THE PROBLEM, THE DEALERS SAY WHEN THEY HAVE THE VAN HOOKED UP TO THEIR DIAGNOSED MACHINE THE TEST DOES NOT DUPLICATE. ALL CRANKING ISSUES ARE HAPPENING AT HOME AND WHEN WE ARE OUT AND ABOUT, THE VAN DOES SHUT OFF SOMETIMES AFTER CRANKING. WE HAVE TAKEN VAN TO DEALER FOR A RECALL THAT WE RECEIVED PERTAINING TO WIRELESS IGNITION NOD.THE FIX DID NOT RESOLVE THE CRANKING PROBLEM. THIS CRANKING ISSUE HAPPENS WHEN ENGINE IS COLD OR HOT, NO LIGHTS COME ON INSTRUMENT AND NO CODES ARE STORED TO HELP FIND THE PROBLEM. THE TWO DEALERS HAVE CHECKED BATTERY, STARTER, ALL GROUNDS,FUEL PUMP RELAY, FUES, ANY THING THEY COULD THINK OF, STILL NO FIX. THIS HAS BEEN GOING FOR TWO YEARS, PLEASE HELP, MR CEO OF CHRYSLER PLEASE HELP YOUR OWNERS OF YOUR VEHICLES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND DIAGNOSED, BUT A FAILURE COULD NOT BE FOUND. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. THE CONTACT FOUND INFORMATION ONLINE REGARDING AN INADVERTENT IGNITION KEY DISPLACEMENT, WHICH COULD CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO STALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 113,576.

ENGINE STALLS IN THE FIRST 5 MINUTES OF DRIVING. SOMETIMES IT IS DIFFICULT TO RESTART, OTHER TIMES NOT DIFFICULT TO RESTART. OCCURS 20 MPH OR SLOWER. USUALLY WHILE SLOWING TO STOP OR TURN. HAS BEE HAPPENING INTERMIITANTLY SINCE JANUARY.

APPROXIMATELY TWO MONTHS AGO THE 2010 T&C BEGAN BEING SLUGGISH TO START. WE REPLACED THE BATTERY AND IT STARTED FINE. A WEEK AFTER IT BEGAN TO STALL WITH THE DASH LIGHTS TURNING ON AND OFF. A DAY OR TWO LATER IT BEGAN TO STALL AND TURNED OFF IN TRAFFIC. THE BATTERY HAS BEEN CHECKED AND IT IS FUNCTIONING - THE LOCAL MECHANIC PERFORMED A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND NO CODE WAS PRESENT. CURRENTLY IT HAD STALLED AND TURNED OFF SEVERAL TIMES - EXTREMELY STRESSFUL AND DANGEROUS.

WHEN DRIVING IN TOWN THE RPMS WILL SUDDENLY DROP TO 0, THE VAN IS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE AND THE POWER STEERING LOCKS UP. SOMETIMES THE ESP MESSAGE POPS UP ON THE DASH. I HAVE TO PULL OVER, PUT THE VAN IN PARK, AND TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND THEN BACK ON. SO FAR THIS WORKS BUT IT WILL DO THIS MULTIPLE TIMES IN THE SAME TRIP. HAS HAPPENED WHEN MOVING, WHILE STOPPED AND WHEN TURNING THROUGH AN INTERSECTION. I'M ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIED THIS WILL HAPPEN AT A CRITICAL MOMENT AND CAUSE MY CHILDREN AND I TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT.
