  I have a huge issue with the safety of my vehicle. while i am driving the car will race the RPMs up 6,000 up and down while I am going 65 on the highway, but the car down not speed up. the only way to stop it is to pull over the busy highway and restart the van. it will also sometimes drop down in gears and cause the vehicle to skid and shift the back end to the side. I called the deanship and they said the will not help. this is scary for me and my kids. to fix it would be over $5000 and that is more then the van is worth and I think it would be bad to sell it knowing this issue.

• 12/27/2018· VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL

  WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT A CONSTANT SPEED AND THEN ACCELERATING THE VEHICLE CONTINUES TO ACCELERATE EVEN WHEN THE ACCELERATOR IS RELEASED AND THE BRAKE IS DEPRESSED. AFTER PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL SEVERAL TIMES THE VEHICLE SPEED DECREASES. THE ACCELERATION CONTINUED FROM 10 TO 20 SECONDS DURING THESE TIMES. I HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS CONDITION 5 OR 6 TIMES. THE CONDITION INITIALLY OCCURRED IN AUG 2015 AND I TOOK IT TO A DEALER BUT NO CODES WERE FOUND AND THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THE CONDITION OCCURRED AGAIN IN 2018 ON A MORE FREQUENT BASIS (4 OR 5 TIMES). I AGAIN TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A DEALER AND THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE. I ALSO TOOK THE THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT SHOP THAT SPECIALIZES IN ELECTRICAL AND DRIVABILITY ISSUES. THEY HAD THE CARS FOR 2 DAYS AND COULD NOT DUPLICATE OR FIND ANYTHING TO INDICATE A PROBLEM. I HAVE A CASE NO. 27622793. WHEN I HEARD OF SIMILAR PROBLEMS AND RECALLS WITH OTHER CHRYSLER VEHICLES IN MAY 2018 I CALLED CHRYSLER AND WAS TOLD THAT A FINAL LIST OF VEHICLES WAS NOT OUT YET AND I WOULD BE NOTIFIED IF AND WHEN MY VEHICLE WAS FOUND TO HAV A PROBLEM.

  WITHOUT WARNING THE ENGINE AND ALL ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS (INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR LIGHTING, RADIO, WIPERS, AC-HEAT/BLOWER, BRAKE ASSIST, STEERING ASSIST, AIRBAG, SPEED INDICATOR, ETC) ALL SHUT OFF. THERE ARE NO DASH WARNING LIGHTS. THE DASHBOARD IS COMPLETELY BLACK FOR A MOMENT (UNTIL RESTART). THIS HAPPENED WHILE THE CAR WAS WARM (AFTER DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED FOR OVER 15MIN). THIS HAPPENED WHILE THE CAR WAS TRAVELLING AT APPROXIMATELY 35-MILES PER HOUR ON A CITY STREET. I WAS ABLE TO PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND IMMEDIATELY RESTART WITHOUT STOPPING. THIS WAS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION. IF I WAS ON A POORLY LIT ROAD OR GOING AROUND A CORNER, OR AT A HIGHER SPEED, OR A LESS EXPERIENCED DRIVER, THIS COULD EASILY HAVE BEEN A FATAL ACCIDENT. THIS WAS PREVIOUSLY REPORTED TO CHRYSLER AND THYE REPORTED THE PROBLEM 'FIXED' LESS THAN 1-YEAR AGO (REPORTED TO CHRYSLER CORPORATE IN EARLY AUGUST 2017 AND SUPPOSEDLY FIXED BY A CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP AUGUST 11 2017). THE PROBLEM IS NOT FIXED. THIS HAPPENS WITHOUT WARNING AND VERY LIMITED (LESS THAN ONCE PER MONTH). IT SEEMS MORE FREQUENT IN COLD WEATHER. IT HAS HAPPENED AT OTHER TIMES, OFTEN A MINUTE OR SO AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE, WHILE WARMING UP. IT HAS HAPPENED OTHER TIMES WHILE DRIVING (ABOUT 4-TIMES SINCE PURCHASE IN NOVEMBER 2014), BUT I DO NOT RECALL THE DATES AND TIME.

  THE ACCELERATOR JAMMED AT FULL THROTTLE AS WE WERE MAKING A RIGHT TURN. THERE WAS NOTHING DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR, BUT THE ENGINE WAS RACING AT FULL SPEED. THE LIGHT WAS RED, SO I WAS FORCED TO USED THE BRAKES TO KEEP FROM HITTING THE CAR STOPPED AT THE LIGHT IN FRONT OF US. THE BRAKES WEREN'T GOING TO HOLD THE VEHICLE BACK FOR LONG, SO I SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL AND TURNED OFF THE ENGINE. WHEN I TURNED IT BACK ON THE ACCELERATOR WAS STILL STUCK AT FULL THROTTLE. ONLY AFTER TURNING IT OFF A SECOND TIME, COMPLETELY REMOVING THE KEY FROM THE IGNITION, WAITING FOR ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE CONTROL PANEL TO DIM, AND RESTARTING IT DID THE ACCELERATOR RETURN TO NORMAL. CHRYSLER INSISTS THAT IT WAS THE FLOOR MAT DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR, BUT THERE WASN'T ANYTHING IN THE WAY OF OR JAMMING THE PEDAL AT ALL. IT WAS FREE AND CLEAR.

  The lifters and tappets in the 3.6L Chrysler V6 become prematurely worn, interfering with the engine’s ability to provide power to the vehicle while driving. This results in safety issues where the vehicle will not accelerate adequately at low speeds, which surprises other drivers and places the driver and passengers in our van at increased risk of collision.

• 12/05/2019· POWER TRAIN,ENGINE

  2014 CHRYSLER TOWN & COUNTRY HAS A BAD OIL LEAK. WE HAVE RESEARCHED AND FOUND IT TO MOST LIKELY BE THE OIL FILTER HOUSING COOLER ASSEMBLY. THERE IS OIL ALL OVER THE THE MOTOR AND UNDERNEATH ON THE DRIVERS SIDE BUT NOT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WE HAVE READ THAT THE OIL FILTER HOUSING IS EASY TO CRACK WHEN CHANGING OIL & FILTER. I HAVE ALWAYS TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER WHERE WE BOUGHT IT NEW TO HAVE IT SERVICED. MY LAST OIL CHANGE WAS DONE 4000 MILES AGO AND WE JUST STARTED HAVING THIS OIL LEAK. SO IT CANNOT BE THAT IS WAS CRACKED OR IT WOULD HAVE BEEN LEAKING AT THE TIME OF THE LAST SERVICE. THE OIL COOLER HOUSING IS A PLASTIC PART ON THE DRIVERS SIDE AND THAT IS WHERE ALL THE OIL IS LEAKING. THE WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED SO WE ARE EXPLORING REPAIR OPTIONS. SINCE THIS IS BECOMING A COMMON PROBLEM, A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED. WE RECENTLY BOUGHT OUR SON A 2019 DODGE CHALLENGER. IT HAS THE SAME MOTOR AS OUR VAN, SO WE AREN'T LOOKING FORWARD TO ADDRESSING THIS SAME ISSUE.

  THE VAN WAS PURCHASED IN 2017. THE JERKING/SHUTTERING OF THE VEHICLE WHEN DRIVING OR HAULING ON GAS WAS THE FIRST SIGN OF DYSFUNCTION OF THE VEHICLE. THE SECOND SIGN OF FAILURE IN THE MANUFACTURING OF THIS MAKE AND MODEL OF CHRYSLER WAS THE HEAD RESTRAINT OF THE DRIVERS SEAT AND THEN WEEKS LATTER THE PASSENGER SEAT POPPED UP, WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND NOT IN MOTION AND DEPLOYED OUT OF PLACE WITHOUT IMPACT OF ANY ACCIDENT OR ETC. AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST, BUT EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THE OIL LEAKS THAT THIS VEHICLE TO THIS DAY HAVE STARTED SINCE SEPTEMBER OF 2019. WE HAVE GONE MORE THAN 3 TIMES TO DIFFERENT OIL CHANGES AND COMPANYS AND THEY KEEP INSISTING IT'S A CHRYSLER RECALL ON THIS MAKE AND MODEL. WHEN WE NOTICED THIS HUGE OIL SPILL, IS WHEN IT'S PARKED AND WE ARE READY TO GO TO OUR NEXT DESTINATION AND A POOL OF OIL SHOWS OUT! WE ARE AFRAID TO TRAVEL FAR AND/OR HAVE COMPLICATIONS LATTER. WE CAN'T EVEN ENJOY THIS VEHICLE AND GO SEE MY BROTHERS WHO ARE OFF IN COLLEGE BECAUSE THIS IS THE ONLY TRANSPORTATION VEHICLE THAT ALL 3 OF US IN THIS HOUSEHOLD CAN FIT COMFORTABLE AND BRING GOODS TO THEM WHEN IN NEED. WE DID NOT PURCHASE THIS VEHICLE TO HAVE A MEDIOCRE PRODUCT AND RESULT.

  Sliding door has been not wanting to shut all the way. It will shut and then pop back open again.you can hear the door trying to shut but then it opens again. We have pretty much stopped using that door to go in and out. It is the passenger side. The other night we got on the freeway and you could hear that the door must not have been shut all the way, although no indicator light saying the door was open nor any interior lights where on. Before I could safely get off again and pull over the door suddenly started engaging and you could here it mechanically moving to lock, the interior of the van lit up and my dashboard indicator came on saying the door was not closed. It did safely close at that point.

The contact stated that while driving at approximately 35 MPH, the charging port located between the 2nd and 3rd row seating on the driver’s side caught on fire. No warning light was illuminated before the failure. The contact pulled off a busy roadway and pulled into a parking lot, all while her 3-year-old son was seated in the 2nd row rear driver's side seat and was being surrounded by smoke.

The contact's son received medical attention for smoke inhalation. The Police and local Fire Department arrived on the scene and extinguished the fire. A Fire report was filed however, the Fire report number was not provided. The origin of the fire was the 110-Volt charging port due to an electrical failure. The contact stated that the child seat was also damaged and needed to be replaced due to the plastic being burned. The vehicle was towed to the residence, where it remained for several weeks. However, the vehicle was later towed back to the local independent dealer where the vehicle was purchased and remained at the dealer for further investigation. The local dealer was not contacted.
