Issue- driver window stopped working then sometimes it closes very slowly then stops. During the winter I opened the window to get gas and window would not close. Seen same make and model with similar issues. Issue 2- air conditioner front condenser gets damage allot with stuff coming off the road especially on highway. Creates a hole and very expensive repair. 3 times are ready this happened. Issue 3 - rust forming next to tail pipe on passenger side of van. Rust spreading now to under carriage of door. To much damaged has occurred before noticing the rust on the side. Expensive repairs.

The contact owns a 2006 Chrysler Town and country. The contact stated that the driver and passenger side windows failed. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where a diagnostic was performed but the repairs that were needed were unknown to the contact. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 400 and the current mileage was unknown. The VIN was not available.

Town & Country 6-cyl

  • 35,000 miles
Starting when my 2006 Chrysler Town & Country van had 29,0245 miles on the odometer, the passenger side window began to behave erratically. Some days the window would go up and down when the driver's console switch was pushed other times it would respond to the switch on the door. Other days it did nothing when the switch was pushed. After approximately 6,000 miles, but while mileage was still less than 36,000, the window refused to work at all no matter what switch was used. I have asked various dealer service departments if they have successfully repaired similar situations. The answer is always no. I ask if there is a recall out on this problem. They say no. Since this is similar to my problem with my 1997 Dodge Caravan where the windshield wiper switch refused to turn on the wipers, even after another, certified correctly operating stalk switch was installed and all wiring checked. The wipers still worked mechanically when the "wash" position was pushed. Finally I had to have a new "body control module" computer installed and all this took three trips to the dealer and cost $741.19, I did not want to leave my van to be "experimented upon" (with me paying the bill). I believe all this is the result of the installation of a defective computer module (which they call "body control module") during the manufacture of the vehicle. I also think I should not have to pay to have it fixed as the vehicle was basically "programmed to fail" due to the use of defective parts. I authorize the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to utilize my description(s) to discuss this matter with Chrysler corporation.

2006 T&C van bought new 21,400 miles. Winning sound due to defective steering pump. Dealer says pump is full of fluid and no leaks; wants $600 to replace pump. Passenger side window doesn't go up and down. No events leading up to either failure. Constant problem. I have yet to come up with the $1000 that dealer wants to fix problem. "old" part still in car waiting your reply. Thanks!
