THE VEHICLE IS HAVING ISSUES TURNING ON. IT PERIODICALLY WILL NOT START. WE HAVE PURCHASED A NEW BATTERY AND THAT HAS NOT SOLVED THE ISSUE. IT IS GETTING WORSE EVERYDAY AND POSSIBLY AFFECTING OTHER ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS. IT HAS LEFT MY WIFE STRANDED TWICE ALREADY IN TWO WEEKS. THIS VAN HAS ALREADY HAD THE CYLINDER REPLACED, HEADLAMP, LATCH FOR REAR SEAT, SENSORS, TWO BATTERIES. IT ALSO SHOOK VIOLENTLY AND ALMOST STALLED ON THE RAILROAD TRACK IN JUNE OF 2014. IT APPEARS THAT THE TIPM MODULE IS BAD AND IT SCARES ME TO HAVE MY WIFE AND CHILDREN IN THIS VEHICLE AS IT IS NO LONGER SAFE TO DRIVE. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED IN A RECALL. *TR

THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF COMPLETELY WHILE BEING DRIVEN, ON THE WAY TO COMING TO A STOP. IT WOULD NOT RESTART. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED IT HAD A FAULTY TIPM, WHICH WAS REPLACED FOR $1151. UPON PICKING THE VEHICLE UP FROM THE DEALERSHIP, IT WAS NOTICED THAT BOTH FRONT TURN SIGNALS WERE NO LONGER WORKING, AND A WARNING BOX POPPED UP ABOUT THIS ISSUE. ALSO, A WARNING LIGHT OF A BATTERY APPEARED ON THE DASH, AND NOW THE CAR HAS TO RETURN TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THESE ISSUES. I FEEL THE SHUTTING OFF OF THE CAR COULD HAVE BEEN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, CONSIDERING THE BAD WEATHER (ICY ROADS) AND IF I HAD BEEN TRAVELING AT A HIGHER SPEED. *TR

SAFETY EQUIPMENT FAILURE. THE BLIND SPOT MONITORING SYSTEM QUIT WORKING AS WELL AS THE BACKUP SENSORS. WE PAID EXTRA FOR THESE SAFETY FEATURES AND THIS WAS A MAJOR FACTOR IN PURCHASING THIS MINI VAN. THE DEALERSHIP HAS STATED ON MULTIPLE TIMES THAT THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM WITH ALL CHRYSLER VEHICLES. THE DEALERS WOULD CHARGE APPROXIMATELY $2,200 TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM WITH THE SAME DEFECTIVE / POORLY DESIGNED PARTS. THIS IS NOT A SOLUTION; PAY TWICE FOR SAFETY EQUIPMENT THAT WILL JUST GO BAD IN THE FUTURE. THIS IS A CLEAR CASE OF THE CHRYSLER SAFETY SYSTEMS SUFFERING FROM POOR ENGINEERING / PARTS. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THE WIDESPREAD REPORTED FAILURE OF THE BLIND SPOT MONITORING SYSTEMS SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED NHTSA AND CHRYSLER SHOULD FIX THE PROBLEM. IT WOULD BE GREAT IF CHRYSLER WAS PROACTIVE ABOUT THIS AND DID THE RIGHT THING. CHRYSLER IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL ON THIS. I HOPE THE NHTSA CAN SPUR THEM TO STAND BEHIND THEIR SAFETY SYSTEMS THAT THEY ACTIVELY MARKETED TO THE PUBLIC. *TR
