2010 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN Complaints

THE TIRE VALVE STEM CRACKED,CAUSING THE TIRE TO DEFLATE. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME WITHIN A YEAR, DIFFERENT WHEEL THE FIRST INCIDENT. I AM GOING TO REPLACE ALL STEMS. BOTH TIRE STEMS WERE FOUND CRACKED AND LEAKING AIR WHILE PARKED. MANY ON LINE COMPLAINTS. NO RECALL BY DODGE YET, THIS IS A REAL DANGER TO THE PUBLIC. IF THE STEMS SHOULD FAIL AT HIGH SPEEDS COULD LEAD TO ACCIDENT. *TR

THE VEHICLE STALLS WHILE DRIVING BETWEEN 30 AND 35 MPH. THERE IS NO WARNING AND IT JUST QUITS. WHEN IT DOES YOU LOSE ALL POWER STEERING AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS. THERE IS NO RHYME OR REASON AS TO WHEN THIS HAPPENS - IT CAN BE SHORTLY AFTER STARTING THE MORNING DRIVE OR AFTER YOU HAVE BEEN DRIVING FOR 20 MINUTES. IT ALSO HAPPENS SPORADICALLY SO IT IS VERY HARD TO DETERMINE IF AND WHEN IT WILL HAPPEN. WE HAVE HAD THE CAR CHECKED MANY TIMES BY THE DEALER WHERE WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND ANYTHING. IT HAS CONTINUED TO STALL SPORADICALLY OVER THE PAST 5-6 MONTHS. WE NOW SEE THAT THERE IS A RECALL FOR 2010 DODGE CARAVANS BASED ON THIS FAULTY IGNITION SWITCH, HOWEVER THE DEALER INFORMS US THAT OUR CAR IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL AND THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. *TR

TL- THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 14V2340 (ELECTRICAL) WAS RECEIVED IN MAY 2014. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO DISCONNECTED THE VENT WINDOW SWITCH UNTIL THE PARTS BECOME AVAILABLE TO PERFORM THE REMEDY LISTED IN THE RECALL. AFTER CONTACTING THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE PARTS NEEDED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE WERE STILL NOT AVAILABLE AND NO ESTIMATED TIME FOR RECEIVING THE PARTS COULD BE GIVEN. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. JFT

THE VEHICLE CUTS OFF AT NORMAL OPERATING SPEED ON BUMPY SURFACES OR AFTER GOING OVER BUMPS IN THE ROAD. VEHICLE LOST POWER STEERING, BRAKING, AND THE ENGINE CUTS OFF. THIS RESULTED IN AND EMERGENCY EXIT FROM THE LANE OF TRAVEL. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES OVER THE PAST 12 MONTHS. THIS APPEARS TO BE THE SAME SYMPTOMS OF A CURRENT RECALL FOR THE IGNITION SWITCH ON SIMILAR VEHICLES OF THIS MODEL. DODGE MAKES NO ATTEMPT TO ASSIST WITH VERIFYING THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE. *TR

WHILE DRIVING THE 2010 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN IT SUDDENLY STALLS. THERE DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE A REASON BEHIND IT, AT LEAST THE DEALER IS UNABLE TO PINPOINT IT. IT HAS HAPPENED 4 TIMES, WITH THE MOST RECENT BEING JUST AFTER HAVING IT INTO THE DEALER WHERE THEY REPLACED THE BATTERY AND THE BATTERY CABLE AND DID AN OIL CHANGE, WITH A TOTAL COST OF $325. HOWEVER, THEY ALSO SAID IT MAY BE THE MODULE THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF OVER $600.00. HOWEVER, THEY APPARENTLY DO NOT KNOW OR JUST TRYING TO RUN UP THE COST OF REPAIRING THE VEHICLE. I SEE A LOT OF OTHERS WHO ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT STALLING PROBLEMS WITH NO SATISFACTION. WHAT IS THE PROBLEM??? THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM AS STALLING CAN OCCUR ANYWHERE AND INVOLVE SERIOUS ACCIDENTS. *TR

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE IN A RESIDENTIAL AREA AT 20 MPH THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF (ENGINE STOPPED RUNNING, LOST POWER STEERING, LOST POWER BRAKES AND IM GUESSING THE AIR BAGS). IMMEDIATELY CHECKED THE IGNITION AND OBSERVED THE KEY TO BE SECURELY IN THE "ON" POSITION (IT DID NOT MOVE TO THE ACCESSORY POSITION). WAS ABLE TO IMMEDIATELY RESTART VEHICLE. TOOK VEHICLE TO DODGE DEALERSHIP AND THEY DID NOT FIND ANY PROBLEM WITH THE IGNITION. THERE WERE NO ERROR CODES IN THE VEHICLE COMPUTER. DEALERSHIP SUGGESTED REMOVING ALL EXTRA KEYS/KEY RINGS...SO DID SO. APPROXIMATELY 2 WEEKS LATER, WITH ONLY THE CAR KEY SECURELY IN THE IGNITION (NO KEY RINGS, ETC) AGAIN WHILE DRIVING IN A RESIDENTIAL AREA AT 20 MPH THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF (ENGINE STOPPED RUNNING, LOST POWER STEERING, LOST POWER BRAKES AND IM GUESSING THE AIR BAGS) AND ALMOST RAN A STOP SIGN. IMMEDIATELY CHECKED THE IGNITION AND OBSERVED THE KEY TO BE SECURELY IN THE "ON" POSITION (IT DID NOT MOVE TO THE ACCESSORY POSITION). THIS RECURRING ISSUE IS GOING TO RESULT IN A DEATH. DODGE NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE IMMEDIATELY. *TR
