BATTERY FAILURE LAST MONTH FOLLOWED BY A TIPM FAILURE THIS MONTH. BATTERY COST ME $220 TO REPLACE. I FOUND OUT IT COULD HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY THE TIPM FAILURE. 8/12/15 COULD NOT START CAR. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THE TIPM WAS NOT SENDING A SIGNAL TO THE FUEL PUMP AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. IT WAS NOT COVERED AND IT COST ME $1050.05 TO REPLACE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A MAJOR ISSUE WITH CHRYSLER VEHICLES.

THIS IS WITH REGARD TO A CHRYSLER REAR QUARTER VENT WINDOW SWITCH SAFETY RECALL P25/NHTSA 14V-234. WE RECEIVED THE RECALL AROUND MAY 2014 AND WENT TO THE LOCAL DEALER SHORTLY AFTER. THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PART SHIPPED FROM CHRYSLER AND DISCONNECTED OUR VENT WINDOW SWITCH AS A SAFETY MEASURE UNTIL THE PART COMES IN. WE HAVE CHECKED NUMEROUS TIMES AND THEY STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE PARTS FROM CHRYSLER AS OF AUGUST 2015. THE DEALER APPEARS TO HAVE DONE WHAT THEY CAN AND THE HOLD UP HAS BEEN WITH CHRYSLER.

WE HAVE OWNED OUR VAN FOR 3 WEEKS. IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP ONCE ALREADY AND I HAVE ANOTHER CALL INTO THE DEALERSHIP. STARTING 07/2015 THE VAN WOULD NOT START EASILY, THREE TIMES ONCE I HAD IT STARTED AND WAS PHYSICALLY DRIVING IT SHUT DOWN. WE HAD IT BROUGHT IN FOR SERVICE AND THEY FIXED THE AIR FILTER. WHEN IT WAS RETURNED IT RAN OKAY FOR TWO DAYS AND THEN THE PROBLEMS BEGAN AGAIN. TODAY I DROVE THE VAN TO AND FROM THE GROCERY STORE. I WENT TO PUT THE VAN IN MY GARAGE AND IT WILL NOT START AT ALL. THE ENGINE TRIES BUT NEVER STARTS. THE LIGHTS COME ON, WINDOWS GO UP AND DOWN AND THE DOORS CAN LOCK. IT JUST WONT START.

WHILE TRAVELING ON AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT LIT-UP ON THE DASH. I PULLED OFF THE ROAD AND CALLED MY DEALER WHICH WAS LOCATED 15 MILES AWAY AND WAS TOLD THAT I MAY NOT MAKE IT BACK TO THEM FOR SERVICE. THE ENGINE WOULD QUIT. I DID DRIVE TO THE DEALER WITHOUT INCIDENT. THE ALTERNATOR WAS REPLACED BY THE DEALER AT A COST OF $577.35. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE OF THE ALTERNATOR WAS NOT IDENTIFIED, 14V-634 DOES NOT INCLUDE THE TOWN AND COUNTRY BUT INCLUDES OTHER CHRYSLER, DODGE AND JEEP VEHICLES OF THE SAME YEAR. I AM REQUESTING THAT THIS VEHICLE BE CONSIDERED FOR THIS RECALL.

TURN SIGNAL LAMP ON BOTH MIRRORS DEFECTIVE. COVER COMES OFF EXPOSING THE ELECTRICAL BOARD WITH THE LIGHTS. BOTH SIDES NOT FUNCTIONING. THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE ON THE INTERNET. WE HAVE A CHRYSLER MAXIMUM CARE PLAN WHICH IT THE BEST WARRANTY CHRYSLER OFFERS BUT THIS PART IS NOT COVERED. THIS ITEM IS FOR ADDED SAFETY BUT NOT FUNCTIONING AND I'M CONCERNED EXPOSED ELECTRICAL BOARDS TO THE WEATHER COULD CAUSE A SHORT OR FIRE.
