Car shakes and stalls when coming to a stop. No lights on the dash. Took it to a dealer and found it is the sensors in the transmission. These should not break on a van that has under 100,000 miles.

On my way home the transmission pump failed in my van which then caused the entire transmission to fail. I was at a stop sign and when I went to go the car to not move forward, it would just rev as if I was in neutral and then when it first happened, it would suddenly kick in to gear. Now the dealership tells me it will not go into gear at all, it just rev's. After some research we saw that there is a recall for this exact issue that exists for our van's year and model; however our VIN was not included in the recall. As it stands right now we are having the transmission replaced but this is obviously related to the existing recall and believe it should be added to it as well. Chryslers number for the recall is S44. I've included the invoice from the dealership for the repair stating that the pump failed.

We were traveling to Illinois when with out warning the car downshifted and went 55m/hr at 5000 rpm instead of 70m/hr at 2000 rpm. Incident occurred 7/22/2023. We were on the tollway coming in to Rockford Illinois at the beginning of rush hour. The mechanic found that the transmission had failed at 47,190 miles on the car. Of course the auto was out of warranty. 2015 Chrysler Town and Country Touring Van 5y or 60,000 mi on the powertrain. This could have been a very dangerous situation with the car accelerating and decelerating as we drove. The interesting thing is the certified transmission mechanic told us this was the 4th van he has seen in the last 2 weeks with the same issue. The transmission fluid was full of metal shards, now this does not seem right on an auto with only 47,190 miles on it There is documentation attached with the component data as per the computer record.

Halfway through a nearly 1000 mile trip from my home to Panama City Beach, FL, I noticed a noise slowly getting louder from the vehicle as the trip progressed. About 100 miles out from our destination, I noticed gears started slipping and the check engine light came on. Luckily, we did get to our destination and an Auto Service Center. From the attached invoice, we now know the "front transmission pump has low pressure starving transmission for fluid damaging transmission internally." This required us to replace the transmission, which was a nearly $6500 repair. It turns out, Chrysler recalled other 2015 Town and County vans for this exact same reason (recall number is 16V461000 and Chrysler's number is S44). However, my VIN was NOT a part of this recall. According to this recall description, "If the transmission loses hydraulic pressure, the vehicle may lose motive power, increasing the risk of a crash." The fact that my vehicle was not recalled but had the same issue as other vehicles that were recalled should warrant an investigation. I now know my family's safety was unknowingly at risk. I will also give this information directly to Chrysler.

Transmission pump failure, causing vehicle to be inoperable. Low pressure.

While driving the transmission started to make a loud whistling sound and would not change gears appropriately.

Last month when driving my van started to stall when driving came to a stop at a light and the engine jerked, light turned green started to drive and it wouldn't go over 30 then all of a sudden it speeded up and the started making a weird sound pulled, off into a parking lot wasn't able to get it all the way in a parking spot. Called to have it towed. The transmission blew and it only has 65,000 miles. That cost me alot to get a transmission. Now the seatbelt on drivers side will not lock into place. Which I don't know what to do with that because you have to wear a seatbelt. When I bought this van brand new I had a lot of electrical issues kept taking it to the dealer they could never find anything. Lights would dim when driving, they was suppose to hook a machine up to it and it would register what was going on, this was requested by Chrysler when I couldn't get anywhere with the dealer ship. Chrysler set it up I go to the dealer and they don't have that equipment so they said they couldn't do anything, called Chrysler back told them was suppose to hear from someone never did. I feel this van is a death trap. The side doors act like they don't want to close at times. I have kept up on regular maintenance on the van. I just feel that when you pay $30,000 for a vehicle and take care of it things should last longer. I know it's 7 years old but low mileage and taken care of.

- Pinellas Park, FL, USA

When I accelerate, the vehicle jumps, as if the transmission is slipping. It seems like it does it when it needs to change gears. There aren-??t any lights on to indicate anything is wrong, however, this problem is consistent and I-??m scared the vehicle will leave my small children and I on the side of the road
