I BOUGHT A 2014 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY IN AUGUST 2014. I TOOK THE VAN IN FOR A SQUEALING NOISE 20 DAYS AFTER I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE SAT THERE FOR AN HOUR AT THE DEALERSHIP AND THEN THEY COME TO TELL ME THEY COULD NOT HEAR THE NOISE. THE VAN STOP MAKING THE NOISE IN OCTOBER 2014 HOWEVER IT ALMOST COST ME AND CHILDREN OUR LIVES. WE WERE DRIVING DOWN A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY WHERE WE LIVE AND THE ENGINE STALLED AND JUST QUIT LOST ALL POWER I WAS ABLE TO GET OUT OF THE ROAD THANK GOODNESS OR WE WOULD HAVE BEEN SMASHED BECAUSE IT WAS 8:00 A.M. WORK TRAFFIC. I THEN CALLED THE DEALERSHIP RIGHT AWAY AND MADE AN APPOINTMENT TO BRING THE VAN IN TO HAVE IT SEEN ABOUT. I TOOK THE VAN IN AND WAS CALLED A FEW DAYS LATER AND THEY TOLD ME THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE VERY FRUSTRATING. MY VAN HAS STALLED SEVERAL MORE TIMES AFTER THAT AND HAS BEEN AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR 3 WEEKS NOW AND THEY STILL SAY THEY CANNOT FIND THE ISSUE. ALSO, I WAS IN THE PARKING LOT OF A STORE AND TURNED INTO A PARKING PLACE AND THE ENGINE JUST SHUT OFF IT TOOK SEVERAL MINUTES FOR IT TO START BACK UP. I HAVE CONTACTED CHRYSLER ON THIS MATTER AND THEY GO WITH WHAT THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAYS AND IF THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE THEY TELL ME TO COME GET IT. I AM NOW GOING TO TURN THIS OVER TO THE LEMON LAW DEPARTMENT BECAUSE I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THIS VEHICLE THAT WAS PURCHASED NEW AND ONLY HAS 7,000 MILES ON IT. NOT TO MENTION THIS IS THE SECOND BRAND NEW VEHICLE I HAVE PURCHASED FROM THIS PLACE AND THE FIRST ONE THE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT AT 6,000 MILES. I NEED SOME HELP SOMEONE PLEASE ADVISE ME ON WHAT I NEED TO DO. ALSO, I HAVE WROTE A LETTER TO CHRYSLER STATING THE PROBLEMS I AM HAVING AND CERTIFIED MAILED IT AND THE ONLY RESPONSE I GOT WAS I WILL SEND TO SOMEONE ELSE. *TR

I WAS CHANGING THE LEFT FRONT TIRE BECAUSE THE TIRE HAD A NAIL IN IT. I USED THE TIRE JACK FROM THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS RAISED AND THE TIRE WAS REMOVED AND THE JACK COLLAPSED. THE VEHICLE WAS PERFECTLY LEVEL IN A GARAGE WITH A CEMENT FLOOR. THE VEHICLE WAS IN PARK. I DID NOT SET THE EMERGENCY BRAKE OR BLOCK THE TIRES. NOTHING WAS TOUCHING OR ROCKING THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT. LOOKING AT THE JACK AFTERWARDS, THE SCREW BOLT WAS BENT AND THE UPPER ARMS WERE BENT. *TR

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE JUNE 11, 2014 CONCERNING THE REAR QUARTER WINDOW SWITCH. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP IN JULY AND WAS TOLD THAT THE REPLACEMENT PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE DEALERSHIP DISCONNECTED THE REAR QUARTER WINDOW SWITCH. THEY SAID THEY WOULD CALL ME WHEN THE REPLACEMENT PART CAME IT. I HAVE CALLED NUMEROUS TIMES SINCE THEN. EACH TIME I AM TOLD THE REPLACEMENT PART HAS NOT COME IN. I RECEIVED A 2ND RECALL NOTICE JANUARY 9, 2015. THE PART IS STILL NOT AVAILABLE. I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE NEW. I HAVE BEEN DENIED FULL USE OF THE AUTOMOBILE BECAUSE THE MANUFACTURER CANNOT PROVIDE A REPLACEMENT PART. *TR

WE WERE NOTIFIED OF A POTENTIAL ISSUE WITH THE REAR QUARTER VENT SWITCH MANY MONTHS AGO AND HAD THE SWITCH/WINDOW DISABLED. IT SEEMS LIKE A PART SHOULD BE AVAILABLE AFTER 6+ MONTHS GIVEN THAT NEWER MODELS OF THE SAME VEHICLE ARE NOT SUBJECT TO THE RECALL YET THE DESIGN HAS CHANGED VERY LITTLE. WHILE THIS MIGHT SEEM TO BE A MINOR ISSUE, IT WAS SIGNIFICANT ENOUGH TO ISSUE A RECALL AND THE NHTSA SHOULD TAKE SOME ACTION TO ENSURE THAT CHRYSLER RESPONDS TO A RECALL IN A MORE TIMELY MANNER.
