2013 Dodge Grand Caravan, without warning vehicle shuts off. Has been happening since new in 2014. Driving straight down highway, turning street corners, crossing railroad tracks, it has happened in a number of scenarios. Power loss effects steering and braking and has caused dangerous situations on multiple occasions. There are no MIL codes or faults to be found. The vehicle acts as if it was simply turned off and restarted without issue and can carry on as if nothing ever happened. I have found nothing, (I'm a DOT fleet mechanic) and the dealer has found nothing either. Details provided below are for recent event.

The ignition is not responding as it should. I have to turn it more and more often when I should only turn it once. My grave concern is that of my wife and grandkids. When she is driving them to and fro, the car will hesitate to start and the real problem will be when it turns off. If they are all in the car and on the highway it could be a disaster. I had new key pods made and the vendor told me that Jeep uses the same ignition and they have a recall. Please help.

When driving the vehicle at random times the vehicle will shut off without warning. This becomes very unsafe as you lose all power to everything. Steering, breaks, etc. Took the vehicle to a dealership to have this issue fixed. Parts and labor cost 1500 dollars and did not solve the problem.

December 21, 2021 - Crank, no start was the first issued. Had the battery tested and was told that it was dead and the battery was replaced. Random lights on the dashboard started coming on - (lightning bolt symbol and check engine light). Crank no start continued - throttle body and gasket needed to be cleaned/replaced. All spark plugs needed to be replaced (full tune-up). The thermostat blew and had to be replaced. The accelerator sensor intermittently failed then the whole gas pedal assembly had to be replaced. Crank, no start still occurred. Every few times could get the car to start but then stalled randomly - while driving even. The battery was drained completely during the day while the car was parked and all lights were off. Freezing temperatures outside with a car that couldn't start, or get jumped (with a battery that was only 2 weeks old). The van was then inspected again by a service center. Was told by the center that the TIPM was bad and causing all of these electrical failures/problems. TIPM is now being replaced. Now without a car in the winter (with 2 kids) for 3 weeks while trying to diagnose and wait for parts/repairs, and down over $2600 in repairs.

Placed vehicle in park and the transmission showed it was in reverse. Tried shifting to another gear and vehicle remained in reverse. Placed in park vehicle started revving up. Turned off vehicle. Vehicle started once after three hours and you could drive it, but as soon as you placed it in park the vehicle revved up to 1500 RPMS. Had to turn off and could never start vehicle again. Two weeks and certified dealers can't find problems. Escalated to FCA for assistance.

This vehicle has the same problem regarding the wireless ignition module (wim) problems as the 2008 - 2012 of same models. My wife was driving this car with all four of our children while we are here in germany (active duty us air force) 2017 and the engine died with no warning/indicators. I was not in the vehicle so I though maybe she hit the ignition and it cut out. At that point we swapped vehicles and I have been using this car as my primary vehicle for driving back and forth to work 2017 - 2021. I am a aircraft mechanic with over 23 years of maintenance experience on multiple different airframes. I have personally witnessed the engine cutting out while driving no less than 20 times since (4/25/2021). I have been able to put the van in neutral and immediately restart the engine (while I am driving and this happens). This happens at slow speeds (residential area with children playing in streets, high speeds (while on the autobahn), during turns (driving on hilly curved roads luckily I haven't exited the roadway yet!), braking (at stop lights), while parallel parking; power brakes stop operating, power steering stops operating, gas pedal stops responding to input - all due to the engine that stops operating. What I believe now due to the wireless ignition module going from on position to accy a malfunction with in the wim. It's like someone just killed the engine, but all lights, radio, everything else electrical still operates perfectly. Mileage 135,000 miles there are no indicators that the engine has ceased to operate except that the rpms are at 0 (even at idle rpms should be around 1,000 rpms). No other indicator light illuminates. Connected obd2, no codes, I even drive with a blue driver attached and when it has happened there are no codes recorded. These cars are hazards on the roads and it is shameful Dodge will not admit their mistake!

My drivers side rear sliding door will not unlocked manually or with the key fob or with the unlock button in the van. So this door will not open at all. It's stuck shut. Also when I press the unlock button inside the van and on the fob it makes a loud buzzing noise. This happened last evening after I had loaded my kids in the car to go home and parked in the driveway. I was unable to get my 1 year old out of her car seat from the rear drivers side sliding door. This is definitely a safety hazzard. What if that was the only way out of the vehicle due to an accident. We would be trapped.

The vehicle has been regularly maintained. There's a huge electrical issue, has been ever sense I've owned it. The transmission is going on it, and I'm just over 100K miles.

Since I bought the vehicle from a previous owner, the car all of a sudden stalls on the highway, a total shut down occurs while driving on highway or local roads. It is really a scary situation. When I looked into product recall on this vehicle, nothing shows up, except several complaints of the same matter. I found out from the web it is a failure of totally integrated fuel system failure and also related to a fuel pump relay failure. So far, no recalls from Chrysler/Dodge manufacturers.no government actions either.
