Town & Country 6-cyl

  • 975 miles
While parked in my attached garage, some function of the car's electrical system turns on and drains the battery. A boost/charge is required to enable the car to start. The car is now in for the fifth time for this condition (11,097 miles) and the dealer has had the car overnight for a total of 22 days so far. I am unsure how long they will have it this time. My concern is a fire may occur in the vehicle due to an overload condition that may cause my house to burn down and a possible loss of life.

My 5 year old daughter was climbing out of the driver side power sliding door when she must have bumped the button to close the door. It closed on her head just behind her ear and kept pressure on it without releasing. My wife had to jump out and firmly push the door open to dislodge her head. She had an indentation on her head and a good sized bruise...not to mention she was terrified and screaming! we are so blessed that it wasn't her neck that got stuck in there. I did a little research online and have found videos where people put things like pencils and blocks of wood in between the door and the pillar and the door snaps them like they are twigs. This is terribly unsafe! Chrysler needs to do something about this. Very disappointed!!!! what kind of family vehicle is this"?"
