WE HAVE THE BLIND SPOT MONITORING SYSTEM ON THIS VAN - A SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLAR OPTION. BOTH REAR SENSORS HAVE RUSTED/CORRODED OUT TWO YEARS AGO DUE TO A SUP-PAR DESIGN. THEY COST ABOUT FOUR THOUSAND DOLLARS TO REPLACE. WHY DON' T CHRYSLER HAVE TO RECALL AND REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE SENSORS?

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT NIGHT ON A TWO-LANE HIGHWAY WHEN ALL OF THE LIGHTS WENT OUT AND SHE COULD NOT SEE THE ROAD. SHE WAS ABLE TO GET THE VAN STOPPED IN THE ROADWAY AS THERE WAS NO OTHER TRAFFIC AT THE TIME. WHEN SHE OPENED THE DOOR TO SEE OF THE DOME LIGHT WOULD COME ON, THE LIGHTS CAME BACK ON AND SHE WAS ABLE TO GET BACK HOME. HAD THERE BEEN MORE TRAFFIC, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A MUCH MORE DANGEROUS SITUATION.

TRANSMISSION INTERMITTENTLY LOCKS INTO 2ND GEAR AND WILL NOT SHIFT UP OR DOWN UNTIL VEHICLE IS RESTARTED. THIS ISSUE HAS HAPPENED APPROXIMATELY 45 TIMES IN THE LAST 6 MONTHS WITH THE COLD MONTHS OF DECEMBER AND JANUARY EACH HAVING 10 INSTANCES. THIS PROBLEM HAPPENS JUST AFTER STARTING VEHICLE AND PUTTING INTO DRIVE. THE VEHICLE MAY THUNK OR LURCH FORWARD JUST AFTER STARTING MOTION WHICH INDICATES THE TRANSMISSION HAS MALFUNCTIONED. THERE ARE NO CODES THROWN TO THE TCM. IF IT DOES NOT HAPPEN IN THE 1ST 30 SECONDS IT WILL NOT HAPPEN. MANUFACTURER HAS NOT FIXED THE PROBLEM AS THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE BUT IT IS SO INTERMITTENT THAT THEY WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO DUPLICATE. DEALER SEEMS UNWILLING TO DISCOVER WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. DEALER STATES MANUFACTURER HAS NO RECORDS OF SUCH AN ISSUE WHILE THERE ARE MANY ON THE INTERNET WHO HAVE HAD THE SAME OF SIMILAR ISSUES. VEHICLE HAS BEEN INTO THE DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES WITH SAME RESULT. FIRST VISIT THE DEALER REPLACED A CYLINDER HEAD FOR A KNOWN CYLINDER #2 MISFIRE ISSUE.

CHRYSLER IS HIDING A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH THEIR TRANSMISSION TO ENGINE SOFTWARE. THE VAN IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE WHEN IT HESITATES AND AND THEN JOLTS FORWARD. THIS OCCURS BOTH WHEN THE CAR IS AT A DEAD STOP OR WHEN CHANGING LANES IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. THE ENGINE JUMPS TO HIGH RPM WHEN YOU GIVE IT A LITTLE GAS, BUT THEN IT DOES NOT SHIFT TO THE PROPER GEAR UNLESS YOU LET OFF OF THE GAS PEDAL COMPLETELY. I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM WITH THE DEALERSHIPS FOR 3 YEARS. I THINK THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIX THE PROBLEM BECAUSE CHRYSLER DOESN'T KNOW. THE LURCHING FORWARD AND HESITATION BETWEEN THE TRANSMISSION.AND ENGINE RPM IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM!!!!!!.

BLIND SPOT SAFETY INDICATORS LOCATED IN THE SIDE MIRRORS INTERMITTENTLY ACTIVATE AND STAY ON. THE INDICATORS IN THE SIDE MIRRORS AND ACTIVATION PING ARE A DISTRACTION AND ANNOYING WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. THIS HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY WHEN STATIONARY AND IN MOTION. ALSO HAVE RECEIVED THE REAR VENT SWITCH RECALL WELL OVER A YEAR AGO AND HAD IT DISCONNECTED AT A DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD I WOULD BE PUT ON THE LIST AND NOTIFIED WHEN THEY RECEIVED A REPLACEMENT SWITCH. I HAVE YET TO BE CALLED. I DID HOWEVER RECEIVE A SECOND RECALL NOTICE, MADE A RETURN TRIP TO A DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THE SAME THING AS BEFORE. BOTH OF THESE PROBLEMS APPEAR TO BE A COMMON DEFECT. I WOULD HOPE CHRYSLER COULD CORRECT THESE PROBLEMS IN A TIMELY FASHION AND AT NO EXPENSE TO THE OWNER. THIS IS MY 3RD DODGE/CHRYSLER VAN I HAVE OWNED. I CONSIDER MYSELF A LOYAL CUSTOMER AND HAVE BEEN VERY SATISFIED WITH MY TWO PREVIOUS VANS. I WISH I COULD SAY THE SAME ABOUT THIS ONE.

TWICE IN THE PAST 6 MONTHS, THE BLIND SPOT INDICATOR SYSTEM HAS FAILED, AND THEN DISABLED ITSELF. WHILE IT'S DISABLED AND MALFUNCTIONING, THE ORANGE INDICATOR LIGHTS IN THE MIRROR STAY CONSTANTLY ON, AND THE VEHICLE KEEPS DINGING. THE COST TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE EACH TIME HAS BEEN OVER 1,500 DOLLARS. AND THAT HAS BEEN SINCE I HAVE JUST OWNED IT SINCE JULY, 2015. IT IS A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM AND DEFECT. THE MODULE AND SENSORS ARE PLACED WHERE THEY ARE EXPOSED TO THE ELEMANTS, AND THEY ARE NOT PROPERLY SEALED EITHER. THEY STARTED MESSING UP WHEN EVER THE WEATHER WAS BAD ( LOTS OF RAIN AND SNOW), AND THE SYSTEM FINALLY WOULD FAIL. THE ORANGE INDICATOR LIGHTS WOULD STAY ILLUMINATED IN THE MIRRORS, MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO USE THE SIDE MORRORS, ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT. IT MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE. AND IS VERY DISTRACTING. THE DINGING NOTIFICATION IS VERY UNNERVING, AND A DISTRACTION AS WELL. IT'S RIDICULOUS THAT MY 28,000 DOLLAR VEHICLE HAS A SAFETY FEATURE THAT KEEPS FAILING, AND COSTS OVER 1,500 DOLLARS TO REPAIR, AND THEN 3 MONTHS LATER BREAKS AGAIN!! THE BSM (BLIND SPOT MODULE) FAILS AFTER THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN REPEATEDLY IN BAD WEATHER. WHICH IN EFFECT SHO R TS OUT THE SENSORS. IT IS A WELL KNOWN PROBLEMS ON THE CAR COMPLAINT WEBSITES, AND THE DEALERSHIP ACKNOWLEDGED IT WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM ALSO.

TWICE IN THE PAST 6 MONTHS, THE BLIND SPOT DETECTION HAS COMPLETELY MALFUNCTIONED AND STOPPED WORKING. IT IS A KNOWN DEFECT, THAT THE MODULE FOR THE BLIND SPOT SYSTEM IS LOCATED WHERE IT IS EXPOSED TO THE ELEMANTS, AND THE MODULE PLUS THE SENSORS ARE NOT SEALED PROPERLY TO PROTECT THEM FROM THE ELEMANTS. BOTH TIMES, THE REPAIR WAS OVER 1,500 DOLLARS, PLUS IT MADE THE BLIND SPOT SYSTEM UNUSABLE. BOTH TIMES, IT STARTED MESSING UP AFTER THE WEATHER STARTED GETTING BAD. ( LOTS OF RAIN AND SNOW) AND THE SYSTEM STARTED TO MALFUNCTION WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. THE DEALERSHIP HAS STATED IT IS A KNOWN DEFECT, AND IT IS POSTED ON SEVERAL CAR COMPLAINT FORUMS. THE BLIND SPOT MODULE , AND SENSORS, ARE NOT SEALED PROPERLY, AND ARE INSTALLED IN A PLACE THAT LEAVES THEM EXPOSED. WHEN THE SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONS, THE SYSTEM DISABLES ITSELF, AND THE MIRROR LIGHT INDICATORS REMAIN ON, AND THE CAR KEEPS DINGING. THE LIGHTS REMAIN ON, CREATING A DRIVING HAZARD, ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT, BECAUSE IT IS HARD TO USE THEM, BECAUSE THE ARE LUMINATED CONSTANTLY WITH THE BRIGHT TRIANGLE LIGHT. THE CONSTANT DINGING IS VERY, VERY DISTRACTING AND NOT TO MENTION FRUSTRATING AND ANNOYING. IT IS RIDICULOUS THAT MY 28,000 DOLLAR VEHICLE HAS A SAFETY FEATURE THAT EVERY FEW MONTHS MALFUNCTIONS, AND THEN COSTS OVER 1,500 DOLLARS TO FIX, AND THE DEALERSHIP ACKNOWLEDGED IT AS A KNOWN PROBLEM.

UPON ENTERING AND PRESSING THE START BUTTON, THE VAN STARTS AND IMMEDIATELY DIES. DASH IS DEAD, BUT RADIO AND CENTER STACK STILL LIT UP. PRESS THE BUTTON AGAIN TO SHUT EVERYTHING OFF AND TRY AGAIN. THE VAN WILL USUALLY START AFTER A DELAY. THIS IS IN ADDITION TO CRANKING FOR A LONG TIME AND NOT STARTING AT ALL. THIS WAS HAPPENING EVEN AFTER WE HAD THE ENGINE HEADS AND TRANSMISSION REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. THIS WAS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM BUT IS NOW HAPPENING ABOUT 4 TIMES DAILY.

IN OCTOBER 2014 (APPROX. MILEAGE OF 40K) THE BLIND SPOT MONITORING SYSTEM STOPPED WORKING. DID SOME RESEARCH AND DETERMINED I HAD A BAD RADAR SENSOR BUT THEY COST $900 EACH SO WE TURNED OFF THE BLIND SPOT MONITORING SYSTEM. FEBRUARY 2016 (MILEAGE OF 53K) THE BACKUP CAMERA AND BUMPER SENSORS QUITE WORKING AND WE NOTICED A HOT WIRE SMELL. PULLED OUT THE DRIVER'S SIDE BLIND SPOT MONITORING SENSOR AND FOUND IT BADLY CORRODED AND THE SENSOR SEPARATING AT THE SEAMS ALSO FOUND FUSE BLOWN. REPLACED THE FUSE WITH THE BAD SENSOR DISCONNECTED AND PUT A NEW FUSE IN. CAMERA CAME BACK ON FOR ABOUT TEN SECONDS BEFORE GOING BLACK AGAIN WHEN FUSE BLEW AGAIN. HAD SMOKE COMING OUT OF PASSENGER SIDE REAR BLIND SPOT SENSOR AREA. FOUND THE WIRES MELTED ON THE CONNECTOR AND I HAD TO SNUFF THE WIRES OUT WITH WATER AND CUT THE SENSOR CABLE TO GET THE HOT COMPONENTS OUT OF THE VEHICLE TO PREVENT A FIRE. I THEN REMOVED THE PASSENGER SIDE SENSOR, TERMINATED THE LOOSE WIRES WITH WIRE NUTS AND PUT A NEW FUSE IT. CAMERA AND BUMPER SENSORS ARE WORKING FINE NOW BUT BLIND SPOT MONITORING IS NOT FUNCTIONAL DUE TO THE TWO BAD SENSORS. I SEE TWO ISSUES, FIRST THE BLIND SPOT SENSORS WHICH ARE SOLD AS SAFETY FEATURES FAILED AT 3 YEARS OF USE NOT JUST ONE SENSOR BUT BOTH INDICATING IT IS A POORLY ENGINEERED PART NOT A DEFECTIVE PART. SECONDLY IS THE FUSING SIZE OR WIRING CORRECT FOR THIS CIRCUIT. AS THE FUSE SHOULD BLOW BEFORE WIRES START TO MELT. TO BUY A NEW WIRING HARNESS AND THE TWO SENSORS WILL COST $1700 AND THE SENSOR WILL FAIL AGAIN IN 3 YEARS IF NO MODIFICATIONS ARE MADE TO THE SENSOR. INTERNET SEARCHES SHOW MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT SENSOR FAILURE AND COMPLAINTS ENTERED IN NHSTA DATABASE.

THE BLIND SPOT MONITOR SYSTEM HAS FAILED AT 61109 MILES. THE SENSORS NEED TO BE REPLACED AND THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY. THE COST IS $2200 AND HAS TO BE REPAIRED BY THE DEALER. I WILL HAVE TO TURN OFF THE SYSTEM AND DRIVE WITHOUT IT. AS A SAFETY SYSTEM OF THE VEHICLE, THE SYSTEM SHOULD BE UNDER WARRANTY FOR THE SAME TIME PERIOD AS THE EMISSIONS SYSTEM.

JUST TODAY MY BLIND SPOT MONITORING SYSTEM SEEMS TO HAVE MALFUNCTIONED. THE VEHICLE HAS JUST OVER 62,000 MILES ON IT AND IS WELL MAINTAINED AND TAKEN CARE OF. THE SYSTEM FUNCTIONED PROPERLY YESTERDAY AND THEN WHEN MY WIFE DROVE IT TODAY SHE STARTED TO EXPERIENCE THE ISSUE. I HAD TO SHUT OFF THE MONITORING SYSTEM AS THE BLIND SPOT INDICATORS REMAINED LIT SIMULTANEOUSLY AND THE VEHICLE INFORMATION CENTER CONTINUED TO CHIME WITH THE INDICATION TO "SERVICE BLIND SPOT SYSTEM." A SIMPLE ONLINE SEARCH OF "SERVICE BLIND SPOT SYSTEM" BRINGS UP MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS OF THE EXACT SAME THING HAVING HAPPENED TO OWNERS OF THIS VERY SAME YEAR, MAKE, AND MODEL OF THIS VEHICLE. ALL OF THESE COMPLAINTS, ON AVERAGE, HAD ROUGHLY THE SAME AMOUNT OF MILES AS MY VEHICLE DOES. ALL OF THE COMPLAINTS ALSO LIST A REPAIR COST OF $1,000 TO $2,000+ AND REMARK THAT IT MAY BE BOTH SENSORS THAT NEED TO BE REPLACED AND NOT JUST ONE OF THEM. IF THIS IS TRUE AND IT SEEMS TO BE A RECURRING THEME, WHY IS THERE NOT A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE? BOTH SENSORS SHOULD BE REPLACED BY CHRYSLER AT NO COST TO THE MANUFACTURER AS IT SEEMS TO BE A RELATIVELY KNOWN ISSUE.
