Two things happening occasionally...1st is that sometimes I attempt to start the van and when I turn the key nothing happens as if I didn't even try to turn the key. One time just before this happened I could not use the key fab to unlock the door to the van, almost like the battery to the van or fab was dead, however both were new or fine. After pulling fab out of ignition and trying a second time van has always started without incident. 2nd issue is that on a few spread out occasions the van will quit shifting gears while excellerating causing the RPM's to rev dangerously. So far after getting to a safe place and turning the van off and restarting has cleared the issue...however is unclear what is causing and is very dangerous when you are on the highway before you realize whats happening.

There have been several issues with this vehicle all happening within several months. We first had issues with the tire tread, then a hole in the water hose and radiator, a hole in the exhaust manifold. Then it was broken pieces in the catalytic converter. Now the current issue is either the brakes seized up or the the caliber is stuck and we are currently unable to drive the vehicle.

The contact owns a 2010 Dodge Grand Caravan. While driving 20-60 mph, the vehicle shut down, and lost power steering and power braking ability. There was no warning indicator illuminated. The vehicle was pulled over and restarted. The vehicle was taken to don miller Dodge Chrysler Jeep (5802 odana rd, madison, wi 53719-1212, 608-270-5000) where a diagnostic test was recommended. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure recurred ten times. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that there was no recall.

Often after starting the vehicle and in drive it will automatically shut off. I have to put in neutral and turn ignition over again to make it drive again. This happens at stop lights, city streets and expressways. The radio and air will still work but I'm just coasting with no power steering.

While driving at 35-40mph on a rural zone the steering wheel suddenly felt 'locked' and was extremely difficult to steer. At the same time the brakes were hard to press and the traction control dash light came on. My wife was driving and frightened her very much. The road has a slight curve in it and has oncoming traffic in the opposite lane. She had to forcibly steer the van as best she could against the sidewalk curb to help slow down the van. If she had made it to the freeway when this happened I don't think the results would be the same as far as her safety. I looked up the symptoms and found it to be a common problem and that even a recall might be in place for this issue. Please forward me any info that will help me correct this problem.

The 2010 Dodge Grand Caravan left hand side wiring loom wears on an aluminum obtrusion beneath where it lies. This causes the wire's shielding to be worn off and causes shorting. The engine will die when the wire contacts metal or each other during travel. This problem will cause the engine to die at road speeds leaving the vehicle without steering, brakes, and other safety related equipment. I believe this to be common and undetected because the wear point is on the underside of the wiring loom near the engine. The harness is hard to lift and inspect because of the location and lack of slack at the point of the obtrusion. Vibration causes the short, the vehicle will normally start after coming to a stop when there is no friction between the worn wires. I believe this should be reviewed and analyzed for a recall because of the safety issue involved as others have stated but are unaware of the cause. I have added additional wrapping to limp my vehicle home during a three hour trip. Additionally, this form would not let me select steering, brakes, or other safety features when I selected electrical, which is specifically what causes the safety issues.

'takata recall' when driving at speeds of 55-60. Then applying the brake quickly to stop the transmission jumps forward at times. Also on occasions the when driving the vehicle for a hour or so, if you apply the brake when at a light or stop sign the vehicles R.P.M will idle at 2-2.5 as opposed to 1-1.5. feeling as though it's lungin you forward.. I have a warranty on this vehicle which is up on 2-26-18. This vehicle only has 83,000 miles on it. Hopefully this time they fix the issue. I have owned two other Dodge vans and they all have had the same issue. But due to the fact, there are no check engine lights on they never catch the issue. So it's not until my warranty runs out and I have to pay out of pocket that they find the issue. Im frustrated due to the fact, after you ad the cost of ownership and the place that sold you the car, says they can't duplicate problem. Sounds like they don't want to eat the cost of the repair. Also sounds like once you sign on the dotted line, they could care less what happens!just venting....

I bought a 2010 Dodge Grand Caravan about 3 years ago and within the last 4 months the van has been making a loud high pitched squeal when switching from 1st to 2nd gear. The van has under 70,000 miles and 3 different repair shops said it was the transmission. Anywhere from 2500-3000 to fix. They also said it was not worth fixing because it's just going to continue to have transmission issues. I still owe over 7,000 on it. It's completely unfair that the transmissions are not being covered by the dealerships. So now I have to get another vehicle and start all over again.

While driving the vehicle just stalls out of no where and is very dangerous. Almost wrecked 3 times during the stall period because power steering and engine did not respond.

- Dallas, TX, USA

This problem has happened numerous times and continues to do so. When the van is running and in park it will not shift out of park unless I play with the key (jostle it around) the shift lever then is very hard to shift (as if it is half engaged). When the van is off I try to start the car but it doesn't start unless I remove the key and put it back in numerous times. The key has come out while it was running and I could not turn the car off until I put it back in the ignition and played with it for a few minutes. From the forums I have read this sounds exactly like what is happening with the recalled ignition parts but my VIN number doesn't seem to be on that recall list? there is no key-chain on the keys and never had any.

- Niagara Falls, NY, USA

The vehicle has unexpectedly shut off (I.e. gone dead) 30-40 times in the past 9 months. I previously took the vehicle to Dodge dealership and they did not find any problem with the ignition. There were no error codes in the vehicle computer. Dearlership suggested removing all extra keys/key rings...so did so. When it shuts off, the engine stops running, loss of power steering, loss of power brakes, and im guessing the air bags. Although the van predominantly shuts off at low speeds (10-15 mph) shortly after starting the car, it now occurs more frequently at highway speeds (60 mph) and after the car has been running for 2 hours. The shut down has got to be electronic as the engine does not sputter (the engine and all electronics go dead). Also we use only the key in the ignition (no key ring or extra key weight) and the key does not move out of the on position. This rolling death trap needs to be recalled and repaired immediately.

Car stalls while I am driving it. Took it to car dealer and it doesn't pop up with codes, so they say they can't figure out what is wrong. Head over mechanics drove it and he was driving it at 30 miles an hour and it turned off and he said he almost wrecked my car. Mechanic also duplicated it, but no codes, so they are saying they don't know what to fix. It is the only transportation I have, but is very dangerous to drive as when it stalls I have no power steering or brakes. I am at my wits end, because I have tried to reach Chrysler itself and all I get is customer service and they have a case open, but getting no results. I also have clunking in my transmission, but again no codes. I am at my wits end and don't know where to go from here. I can't afford to keep putting money in this car and it not get fixed. I still owe 5 years on this car also. I have had people riding in the car with me when it has happened. I am going to put a date at this end here, but not sure of when it first started happening, but know that the transmission started happening last year and told them about it and they said that was natural for that type of engine, but they hadn't even drove it.

Transmission feels like it is going to come out of the front end of my car. It makes the car move forward when it does it. Notified dealer and they tried it, it did not do it for them, so they say they can not fix it. Tried it once. Under warranty, but no codes again.
