2014 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN Complaints

While driving, the driver's seat belt will randomly come unbuckled. It was only happening while turning and rarely, but is now increasing in frequency and happens while driving straight.

Hello good morning I have a serious situation. On April 20, 2022, my 2014 Dodge minivan caught fire at 3:00 a.m. Yes. no explanation. After searching the internet I realized that the same thing has happened to many people with these cars. Look on the official Dodge website, make a claim and they gave me an appointment to see my car on May 24 at Triangle Chrysler in Ponce, Puerto Rico. Later I called today May 27, 2022 to see the result of the investigation and they say that they are not responsible and they do not give me any other explanation. My van is a total loss, everything burned inside. I feel very sad and disappointed as the fire started inside the car in the middle of the morning and it is exactly the same as the recall of this car says. I don't have insurance that covers those damages, nor do I have money to buy another one. I lost everything. I need immediate help. search the internet co. the vin number of the car and the factory recall appears but nobody ever sent me any notification. what can i do i need help

Sensor in the Passenger Seat is defective and will cause the Air Bag light to intermittently come on leaving the Passenger without Air Bags during an accident. ALL defects / warning lights dealing with AIR BAGS or any other SAFETY FEATURE on a vehicle, regardless of year, should be looked at immediately by Dealers when the vehicle is brought into the Dealership. These are MAJOR Safety Defects and if the Dealership cannot inspect / and safely repair the vehicle during that visit, then a loaner car should be issued to the vehicle Owner until the vehicle is repaired. Maybe this will help the OEMs make Consumer Safety a priority instead of maximizing profitability of a component by using cheap inferior products that may save .0001 cent per unit sold.

We have had to replace both of the Front Driver & Passenger Windows twice with-in the last 4 years. The latest replacement happened this year with the Passenger window. The vehicle was setting at my work. There was nothing wrong with the window at 6:30 a.m. but, at 3:40 p.m the window assembly had broken and the window slid down and was inside the door. This is very much a safety hazard and could have a lot of additional implications if there was inclement weather or if the vehicle was in a more public area where someone could have entered the vehicle thru the missing window and either hidden in the vehicle to attack the owner when they returned or stolen items from the vehicle. There should be some type of tether / safety feature that would prevent the window from falling completely down if the window assembly malfunctions or breaks. There is also a design flaw in the motor housing which allows the post to fail and break off at the 90 degree corner where the post(s) meets the housing. These posts should have a radius at that point so that it is not a point of failure. Additionally, the motor is too strong for this housing and also adds unnecessary stress to these posts.

We replace the complete Oil Cooler and Filter Housing in December 2020 and now, today May 10, 2022, we are having to replace the Oil Filter Housing Assembly due to the plastic cracking. It is being replaced with an Aluminum Housing that was not available in 2020. Time has proven that this is a Materials Design Flaw from Dodge and they totally ignored their potential failure points during the FMEA process on these units. This should be a recall for all affected vehicles and owners that have already had to preform the repairs should be reimbursed and any that were repaired with the plastic units should be replaced at NO CHARGE with the new Aluminum housings.

My passenger back automatic sliding door is doing a lot of clicking noise and not opening. I have tried opening it numerous times by hand to get my children out and have not been able so they came out the drivers side. But as I driving down the road later if I hit a bump and especially when I make a left turn and hit a bump the door will dislodge and open on its own. That is a very uneasy feeling when my children being a newborn, a 5 yr old or 11 yr old is by that door when it opens on its own. This has been happening for roughly 6mths. It had stopped for a few months but is doing it again

Our vehicle has had a recall on the HVAC system since we purchased it. The recall had been repaired prior to us purchasing it used from a Dealership and we have had the recall repaired 3 times since it has been under our ownership. Every year, the issue repeats itself. The HVAC system will blow out hot air only and the AC will not work and we have to bring it in to the shop.
