Hi. I have a year 2009 Chrysler Town and Country. I just bought about a year ago and this is the fourth time this has happened to me - why? I am driving this time, I was out of town on my way home (I had to take my kids to the doctors so I had a van full of kids) and all sudden my wipers come on my dash goes crazy and everything is just all lit up and it will not go off even though I pulled over to the side of the road and let it sit for 15 to 20 minutes. I started it up and it still kept going this is having multiple times and it won't stop. I wish somebody could get this fixed because now I think my wipers are going bad. It just seems like everything comes on and everything stalls. I even noticed when I'm driving that I have to try to pick up a little speed because I'm losing power and I don't know why but this is now it's happened multiple times and I've had two kids in my van.

This site did not like the link to youtube video so here it is,

I went out and started my van, the wipers turned on automatically so I thought maybe I had turned the handle somehow... so I turned it off and that's when everything went wrong. All the dash lights started flashing and cycling through start up checks and then saying everything is off abs, airbags etc. the seat was even repositioning itself. I took out my phone and started recording this weird episode that I have never seen before. I bought this van 5 months ago and don't know of its history, but this is not something anyone should have to deal with. 3 days later my Wife was driving down the road when this started happening to her, the difference was that she sits closer to steering wheel then I do and the seat was jerking her back and forth while driving and scared her. Thanks dumbasses. I bought this van because I wanted the stow and go seats and side curtain safety along with everything else. My van is a loaded limited edition with most available options. After looking around the internet it seems like the TIPM or a loose connection could be the problem and that dealerships are pretty much a waste of time for help on this. Chrysler knows of the issues because it happens across their vehicles and have only fixed certain models. The fact that a cracked shorting wire in the power door or a loose connector could cause all this is to go wrong is just poor engineering.
