2011 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY Complaints

TIPM REPLACED FOR $1101.91. THE CAR WOULD STALL IN THE MIDDLE OF BUSY ROAD (WITH CHILDREN IN THE CAR) WHEN DRIVING, AND WOULD NOT START OTHER TIMES (WOULD CRANK BUT NOT TURN OVER). WHEN WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, WE HAD TO WAIT 3 WEEKS TO GET THE REPAIR BECAUSE WE WERE NUMBER 23 ON THE LIST OF PEOPLE NEEDING THE PART.

2011 CHRYSLER TOWN & COUNTRY. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO REPLACEMENT PARTS TO REPAIR REAR QUARTER VENT WINDOW SWITCH RECALL NOTICE IS STILL ON BACK ORDER. *SMD

WAS LEAVING WORK WHEN MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ONE, ALONG WITH THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT AND THE BRAKES GOT HARD. CAR STOPPED, TURNED IT OFF TO TURN IT BACK ON, AND IT WOULD NOT START. ALL LIGHTS, RADIO, ETC CAME ON, BUT ENGINE WOULD NOT TURN OVER OR ENGAGE. DO NOT THINK FUEL PUMP WAS ENGAGING EITHER. TRIED NUMEROUS THINGS, INCLUDING THE TIPM BYPASS AND IT STILL WILL NOT START. 90% PLUS OF MY DRIVING IS HIGHWAY. I GOT VERY LUCKY THAT THIS SYSTEM FAILURE HAPPENED WHEN IT DID, AS A FEW MINUTES LATER AND I WOULD HAVE BEEN ON A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY, AS WELL AS IF IT HAD HAPPENED ON MY WAY TO WORK.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. WHILE STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE ACCELERATED WITHOUT WARNING AND CRASHED INTO THE REAR OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A BODY SHOP AND REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 57,398.

MY CAR SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING AND WONT START RIGHT AWAY. IT GIVES NO WARNING. IT HAPPENS ANYWHERE. IT IS UNSAFE IN MANY WAYS.. I HAVE TAKEN IT OT THE DEALER AND THE PROBLEM PERSIST. I HAVE NO MORE WARRANTY IN THE VEHICLE.

VEHICLE INVOVED IN ACCIDENT ON FWY, COLLISION DID OVER $6500 IN DAMAGE. BUT THE AIRBAGS NEVER DEPLOYED. FROM LOOKING THRU INTERNET I SEE THAT PROBS WITH THE TIPM CAN CAUSE AIRBAGS NOT TO DEPLOY WHEN NEEDED. HAVE HAD OTHER ISSUES WITH TIPM SUCH AS VEH NOT STARTING ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BATTERY WAS CHANGED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE CHECK BATTERY WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V234000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

THE FUEL PUMP RELAY IS FAILING CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO NOT START SOMETIMES. IT HAS ALSO CAUSED POOR ACCELERATION FROM THE RELAY CUTTING ON AND OFF.

BLIND SPOT INDICATOR HAS STOPPED FUNCTIONING AROUND 47,500 MILES. THE CLUSTER PERIODICALLY CHIMES THAT THE BLIND SPOT INDICATOR SYSTEM IS NOT AVAILABLE AND THE INDICATOR LIGHTS REMAIN LIT. SO A SAFETY FEATURE HAS BECOME A DISTRACTION AND NOW IS A SAFETY RISK. I CALLED THE DEALER TO INQUIRE IF THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND WAS TOLD TO CALL CHRYSLER SINCE THIS FAILURE IS "HAPPENING LEFT AND RIGHT." HE ADVISED ME THE REPAIR IS ROUGHLY $2,000 AND WAS SURPRISED IT HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED YET. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THE RECALL PROCESS IS VERY LONG AND GAVE ME A BIT OF A RUN AROUND. I ASKED THEM IF IT WOULD HELP THEM EXPEDITE THE RECALL PROCESS IF I CONTACTED NHTSA, SO HERE IT IS.

FIRST MY RADIO WOULD COME ON AND OFF BUY ITSELF, THEN THE HEAT WOULD TURN ON AND OFF BY ITSELF, THEN CAR WOULD START SOMETIMES, UNLESS YOU TURNED KEY ON AND OFF 4 TIMES BEFORE STARTING, NOW THE FUEL PUMP WILL NOT STOP RUNNING AND I HAVE TO TAKE CABLE OF BATTERY EVERY TIME I TURN VAN OFF
