2010 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN Complaints

AFTER DRIVING WITH VEHICLE IN PARK, TURN KEY OFF AND ENGINE KEEPS RUNNING AS SMOOTH AS NORMAL RUNNING, PULL FOBIK KEY OUT AND MOVE IT 50 FT AWAY AND VEHICLE KEEPS RUNNING.

VEHICLE NOT STARTING RANDOMLY. WHEN YOU TRY TO START IT JUST CLICKS ONCE AND WON'T TURN OVER. AFTER A FEW MINUTES IT WILL START. I HAVE FOUND 1,000'S OF REPORTS OF THE SAME ISSUE FOR THIS SAME MAKE MODEL AND YEAR. PLEASE FIX THIS ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT UPON INSPECTING THE VEHICLE, IT WAS NOTICED THAT THE REAR AXLE PREMATURELY CRACKED ON BOTH SIDES IN THE REAR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT YET INSPECTED AND DIAGNOSED BY A DEALER AND AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE TO DETERMINE IF THEY WOULD PROVIDE A SOLUTION. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000. ...UPDATED 10/23/17 *BF THE CONSUMER STATED THE DEALER ADVISED THE VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY DUE TO IT HAVING OVER 100,000 MILES. UPDATED 10/27/2017 *JS

MY VAN WILL JUST SHUTS OFF WITH NO WARNING WHILE I AM DRIVING. I LOSE MY POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES AND HARD TO CONTROL. I THEN HAVE TO TRY TO SAFELY PULL OVER AND IT WILL JUST START RIGHT BACK UP

VAN WILL VERY RANDOMLY NOT START AS IF THE BATTERY IS DEAD BUT IT IS NOT. IT WILL START FINE FOR WEEKS AND SUDDENLY NOT START AND THEN START AGAIN LATER AND BE GONE FOR WEEKS AGAIN.

WE HAVE A 2010 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN SXT WITH 133,000 MILES AND SINCE THE DAY WE GOT IT BACK IN JULY ALL IT HAS DONE WHILE DRIVING IS SHUT DOWN/SHUT ITSELF OFF. LIGHTS ON DASHBOARD WILL COME ON, FLASH AND VAN WILL JUST SHUT DOWN. KEY REFUSES TO COME OUT AT TIMES, HAVE NO HAZARD LIGHTS WHEN THIS HAPPENS, AND IT CAN TAKE ANYWHERE FROM 5-30 MINUTES FOR THE VAN TO EVEN START AGAIN. THIS HAPPENS ON THE INTERSTATE AND IN THE CITY, DOESNT MATTER REALLY WHERE WE ARE, EVEN AT STOP LIGHTS/STOP SIGNS

BOUGHT VEHICLE USED FROM KIA DEALERSHIP AUGUST 2016. MARCH 2017 I STARTED EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH HEADLIGHTS INTERMITTENTLY SHUTTING OFF EITHER BEFORE STARTUP (WHILE PARKED AND IGNITION OFF) OR DURING OPERATION (WHILE DRIVING). ALL OTHER ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS SEEMED FINE INCLUDING AMBER RUNNING LIGHTS, TAIL-LIGHTS, TURN SIGNALS, AND BRAKE LIGHTS. TOOK VEHICLE TO MECHANIC JULY 2017, NO ISSUES WERE FOUND. NO PROBLEMS FOR 2 WEEKS, THEN STARTED EXPERIENCING SAME PROBLEM. NO RECALLS OR SOLUTIONS FOUND AT THIS TIME.

WHILE DRIVING THE ENGINE STOPPED AND I LOST POWER STEERING. AFTER TURNING OFF THE CAR AND PUTTING IT INTO PARK I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS AND MAKING A LEFT TURN, THE ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD BE DIFFICULT TO DIAGNOSE BECAUSE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 134,431.

AFTER STARTING MY VAN, I WILL TURN ON MY HEADLIGHTS AND THEY WILL FLICKER ON AND THEN OFF REALLY QUICK. THIS HAPPENS RANDOMLY. I WILL WAIT A FEW MINUTES AND TRY AGAIN AND THE SAME THING WILL HAPPEN. I CAN FLIP THE HIGH BEAMS ON AND THEY WILL FLICKER ON AND THEN RIGHT OFF. HOWEVER, THE FOG LIGHTS WILL COME ON. I CAN USUALLY SIT AND WAIT ABOUT 10 TO 15 MINUTES AND THE LIGHTS WILL USUALLY COME ON.
