2008 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY Complaints

WHEN YOU SWITCH TO THE START POSITION YOU GET A CLICK BUT NO START. IF YOU REPEAT IT ENOUGH TIMES IT EVENTUALLY STARTS

THE WIRELESS SWITCH WONT START/TURN OVER MY VAN AND I LOOK UP MY VAN AND IT HAS A RECALL ON IT ITS A 08 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY TOURING LX. *TR

AFTER CHANGING BRAKE COMPONENTS AND BLEEDING SYSTEM. THE BRAKE PEDAL CONTINUES TO GO TO THE FLOOR. OCCASIONALLY WORKING AS IF NOTHING IS WRONG . ALL THIS AFTER BLEEDING SYSTEM AND OBTAINING A SOLID PEDAL. DIY VIDEOS HAVE SHOWN OTHERS WITH THE SAME ISSUES AND NO REAL ANSWER AS TO WHAT PART TO REPLACE OR IF ITS AVAILABLE. THE MASTER CYLINDER BEING CHANGED HAS NOT RESOLVED THE PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE CONTINUES TO BE DRIVEN IN TOWN AND HIGHWAY. STOPPING THE VAN TAKES MORE TIME AND IS SCARY BECAUSE SOMETIME IT TAKES SEVERAL ATTEMPTS AT PRESSING AND OR PUMPING BEFORE SLOWING AND STOPPING. ALSO WHEN AT A STOP LIGHT THE PEDAL WILL SOMETIMES GO ALL THE WAY TO FLOOR YET STILL HOLDS VEHICLE IN THE STOPPED POSITION

WHEN DRIVING IN A PARKING LOT OF A GROCERY STORE, MY VAN'S CLUSTER BOARD STARTED GOING HAYWIRE, ILLUMINATING ALL WARNING LIGHTS, TURNING WIPER BLADES ON WITHOUT THEM BEING ON, OPENING WINDOWS. TURNED VAN OFF AND WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND EVERYTHING WAS BACK TO NORMAL. NEXT DAY IT DID IT AGAIN WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT 55 MPH. TOOK IT TO THE MECHANIC AND IT DID IT FOR HIM. HE BELIEVES IT HAS TO DO WITH THE WIRING IN SLIDING DOOR, WHICH DOES HAVE A RECALL BUT NOT FOR MY PARTICULAR VAN. IF MY 2008 TOWN AND COUNTRY COULD ALSO CATCH FIRE AT THE WIRING HARNESS, IT NEEDS TO BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. EITHER WAY, IT IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE TO BE DRIVING AT 55 MPH AND HAVE EVERYTHING START TO GO HAYWIRE IN YOUR CAR. I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE IT. THIS PROBLEM ABSOLUTELY NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO AND AT THE LEAST, GIVE THE CONSUMERS A REASON FOR IT AND A REPAIR SOLUTION THAT DOESN'T COST THEM THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO TRY AND TROUBLESHOOT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE ATTEMPTING DRIVE OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY AT THE RESIDENCE, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITH TWO UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE RESTARTED AFTER EACH FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SOUTHFIELD CHRYSLER (28100 TELEGRAPH RD, SOUTHFIELD, MI 48034, (248)331-9937, TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE OR RETRIEVE A FAULT CODE. THE FAILURE RECURRED AND THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE SAME DEALER. THE KEYFOB WAS REPLACED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

THE VEHICLE WILL SHUT OFF WHILE IN MOTION. STABILITY LIGHT WILL ILLUMINATE, POWER STEERING, POWER BRAKES FAIL. HAS HAPPENED ON THREE OCCASIONS NOW, TWICE ON CITY STREETS, ONCE AT HIGHWAY SPEED.

THE UPHOLSTERY STITCHING ON THE THIRD ROW SEATS CAME LOOSE CAUSING THE SEAT BELT BUCKLES TO COME LOOSE. THE UPHOLSTERY STITCHING DIDN'T UNRAVEL BECAUSE THERE ARE NO LOOSE THREADS BUT RATHER SEEMED TO DISSOLVE.

THE VEHICLE WAS RUNNING IN THE HIGHWAY. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT GOES ON AN THE ALL PANEL LIGHTS BEGAN TO FLASH MAKE LIKE A WHISLE NOISE AND SHUT OFF. AFTER A WHILE IT STARTS AGAIN BUT IN ABOUT 2,000 METERS DO THE SAME FOUR TIMES. WE NEED TO CALL A TRUCK CRANE. I HAVE READ A LOT OF PERSON WITH THIS ISSUE, SPENT A LOT OF MONEY REPLACING VARIOUS PIECES AND REMAIN WITH THE SAME PROBLEM.

CHRYSLER IS STATING THAT THE VIN NUMBER FOR MY 2008 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY DOES NOT HAVE ANY RECALLS YET I'VE TAKEN IT TO A DEALER AND THE WIN WHICH IS THE L25 RECALL DOES NOT EXIST FOR THIS VAN BUT THAT IS THE EXACT PROBLEM I AM HAVING

THIS HAS HAPPENED TO US THREE TIMES IN THE LAST THREE WEEKS. SHORTLY AFTER STARTING THE CAR WE TRAVELED LESS THAN A MILE AT ABOUT 25 MPH AND THE ENGINE SUDDENLY TURNED OFF CAUSING THE POWER STEERING AND BREAKS TO FAIL. THE VAN RESTARTED ONE WE PUT IT IN PARK AND CONTINUED TO WORK FINE AFTER THAT. WE WERE DRIVING IN A CROWDED NEIGHBORHOOD WHERE CHILDREN PLAY AT THE TIME.
