Vehicle's tipm module failed, causing the vehicle to stall to a stop on a busy street. Hazard lights did not work. Transmission shifter locked itself in park. All cluster instrument warning lights were on. Uconnect sound system off. Power windows and locks disabled. Sliding doors locked and disabled. Engine remained running with key out of ignition. The vehicle's complete tipm failure, which also controls the hazard warning lights (which should be on an isolated circuit), contributed to a three car accident.

The transmission pump and converter failed causing the transmission to lose power, slip out of gear, clunk. While pulling away from a stop sign. The transmission would whine, vibrate, clunk when put into a heavy strain like pulling a steep hill. This is the same transmission and problem as the recall. Chrysler said my VIN did not fall under the recall S44. I believe Chrysler should be held responsible knowing the transmission was faulty.

- Lucedale, MS, USA

About 3 months ago my van started making noise. While I was driving. At times it would hesitate to go up hills and when coming to a light it would shake and sometimes shut off. The rpms would go crazy at times while at a stop. When turning it would shake when I would take the turn. I went to have it checked and it wasn't giving any inquiries about what was wrong. When it was diagnosed on Sept 27th it just said that the passenger door had something wrong with it. On Oct 3,2019 the check engine light finally came on. I brought it in to be diagnosed. It said it was the tcc had my appointment today for it to be fixed (October 8,2019) come to find out it was the transmission. I feel that the Chrysler should pay for this problem because the diagnostic was wrong and it took over 3 months to get a check engine light to go on. I'm on disability and live paycheck to paycheck. I am still paying on this vehicle and didnt think that in the 2 yrs. That I would be paying for a transmission at 72,000 miles. This vehicle was never on the recall list but I believe it should have been.

I rented the van. I was at a stop sign, when crossing the van was slow/ sluggish and I saw a car coming from my left speeding and I pressed on the gas to accelerate and the van did not accelerate as expected, I thought this was due to my experience with a minivan and weight of this type of vehicle, but later realized this was a 6 cylinder and which I did have experience and recall this van not giving me the speed to cross in time yo potentially avoid the accident I had.

I was traveling westbound on the pa turnpike, going up a hill at 70 mph with cruise control on when my vehicle suddenly began losing acceleration and wouldn't shift gears. The RPM gage was going very high. I quickly disabled the cruise control and pulled over onto the shoulder of the road, not an easy feat in the midst of heavy turnpike traffic (I am thankful that I was not hit by a tractor trailer). I put the vehicle in park and put on my emergency flashers. The check engine light came on. After calling my husband on the phone, I turned off the vehicle and called interstate emergency towing to take me to the nearest Chrysler dealership about 20 miles away. The employee at the dealership noted that there had been a transmission-related recall on 2016 Chrysler Town and country minivans that were manufactured during specific months and that my minivan fell within the specified timeframe. However, at a later date I was told that my minivan VIN was not a part of the recall, even though the service department determined that there was an issue with the transmission pump which caused a loss of power (part of the initial recall problem). Please see the initial estimate that is attached. They ordered a new transmission pump, which we had to wait almost a week to come in. The day that the transmission pump arrived, my husband asked them to email him the estimate so that he could show Chrysler that our van had the same issue as the initial recall. Once the dealership learned that we were contesting the recall, they claimed that they did not have to replace the transmission pump after all. When we went to pick up the van, they said that they only had to replace the torque converter (see final invoice attached). We think that they are trying to cover up the fact that our van should have been covered and fixed under the recall, and/or they do not want the recall expanded.

I was picking my daughter up from softball practice when my vehicle stopped shifting on the highway. We were at a stop light and pushing the gas practically did nothing. The vehicle wouldn't move. Once it did move slowly it wouldn't shift. My rpms went up to 5 at one point. My husband tried to drive it to the dealership but only made it about 2 miles from our house before we'R had to call a tow truck. I have a 2016 Chrysler Town and country with less than 70K miles. I called Chrysler after discovering this was actually a recall issue. Oddly enough my VIN was supposedly not affected, however, my $4000 transmission rebuild receipt says differently. Of course Chrysler also said my warranty didn't cover this issue.

- Eustis, FL, USA

Vehicle was being driven normally. Came to stop sign at intersection with highway. As it was coming to a stop, the transmission didn't seem to want to downshift with the slowing speed. Engine speed slowed to below idle, and transmission clunked (and seemed to drop completely out of gear). As traffic cleared and the accelerator was pressed, the vehicle wouldn't move at all (forwards or reverse). Had to wave lots of other drivers past. Thankfully it was already stopped, or the outcome could have been lots worse. Dealership stated "transmission was slipping and surging. Fluid was ok. Pump pressure was low, and torque had a shudder. Transmission needs to be replaced." There is a recall for this year, make, and model for the failure of the hydraulic pump in the transmission, but this VIN is for some reason not included. Vehicle has only 67,500 miles.

- Dillsburg, PA, USA

The contact owns a 2016 Chrysler Town and country. While driving, the engine revved and stalled. The contact called Liberty auto city (1000 E park ave, libertyville, il 60048, (847) 362-3800) and was informed that the vehicle was out of warranty and there were no recalls. The manufacturer was emailed and offered the contact a partial reimbursement; however, the contact still had to pay $2,500 in labor costs. The manufacturer made the contact retrieve maintenance records. The manufacturer offered a little more cost assistance; however, the contact refused to pay the fees since he thought they knew about the defective transmission before he purchased the vehicle. The contact researched and found that the manufacturer lowered the warranty from 100,000 miles to 60,000 miles in 2016. The manufacturer gave the contact an ultimatum of taking the offer by July 31, 2019 or the offer would be cancelled. The failure mileage was 63,000.
