The vehicle will stop while driving. It cuts off after starting and sometimes takes up to 10 minutes just to start it. The battery is dying daily and has to be jumped or disconnected just to start in the morning. Have read several complaints and all end up having to bypass or change the tipm fuse box. It was defective on 2011 and 2012 models. The issue still exists on the 2013 model.

When I was driving my car and coming to a stop the engine would suddenly shut off. All lights would remain on but my power steering would go away and the RPM's would drop to 0. when I would try to start it after pulling over (manually cranking the steering wheel) the car would turn over, start, and then shut off immediately. Then randomly, usually after 15 minutes, the car would start up like normal and stay on without incident. This happened twice within 5 minutes of each incident.

While driving on the interstate with cruise control on, the car shut off entirely after hitting a bump. The RPM went down to 0 and the gas pedal did not work. Everything seemed fine as we were driving. We did not have any warning lights or check engine lights. The car simply shut off at 80 mph. Attempts to turn the car back on did not work. This has now happened on two separate occasions. Thankfully we were able to pull to the side of the road safely each time. We aren't sure if this is an electrical problem, since cruise control was on when the car shut off.

Bad tipm module, had my fuel pump replaced and the battery and now the repair shop says the module is bad and it keeps turning the new fuel pump on and off and it will ruin both of those new parts if it is not fixed. All the Chrysler and Dodge trucks have had a recall on this, why not the Dodge vans. This is very unsafe.

The vans engine shuts off when coming to a stop, this has happened over a dozen times. The mechanic can find nothing wrong because no codes or light come on. This is a huge problem.

The passenger seat headrest deployed, the passenger was adjusting the seat to move back and adjusting the angle of the seat. There was no car accident to activate this action. It was startling to hear this and see this. It is highly defective in it's activision mechanism. The dealer wants to charge to fix this in the $1000. I see no logical reason for the head rest and now I can see if it deployed on the driver's seat, causing an accident. Consumer stated head rest has not been repaired.

My van just shut off while driving. There was no warning. It just stopped working. Fortunately, I was in my neighborhood and not going fast. I was able to stop the van and put in park and start it again without difficulty. I have read online that Dodge knows this is a problem. This needs to be a mandatory recall.

- Nolensville, TN, USA

According to the Dodge dealer that is handling the car there is a defect with the typun I believe that being it's not a problem that's related to wear and tear. Then it should be considered a recall and not a out of pocket expense.

About a month ago the driver's side sliding door stopped working in my wife's 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT. The lock will not actuate to either lock or unlock and so the door is stuck effectively locked and will not open. This is the only door that has this particular issue but a few times I have ridden with my wife I have noticed that the other door locks do not automatically trigger and auto-lock as they should when the vehicle is initially put into drive for about 10min after the vehicle has been in motion. The locked sliding door creates a safety hazard in my opinion since the door cannot be opened electronically or manually. The delayed activation of the auto-lock could also indicate a larger issue with either the door lock mechanisms in general or the electrical system that controls them. After searching online I have found that there is an abundance of issues like these concerning various years and models of Dodge minivans. Enough to possibly constitute a recall.

I bought my vehicle in May 2016. The miles on the vehicle were 50,000. My current miles are 93,000. I noticed it was not safe to drive when going downhill after this recent incident. I dont usually go uphill or downhill where I live and commute! one day I had went to oakland to help give a ride thats when I noticed it was unsafe. I was driving downhill when suddenly the van would jolt and stop then go it would repeat this all the way down for 4 min. It was really scary once I got back on even level pavement it stopped after I put the vehicle in park. Vehicle was in motion and in drive in the oakland hills I felt I had no control of my car it was a hill that had some mild turns but the hill was steep. I was not driving fast, I was only going 30 miles per hour. I had no brake problems before or after just during this road. I took the van to two different mechanics saying the transmission is going out. I only had this van technically for 43,000 miles. I even found out that it had a recall before I bought it in 2014 of something else. The dealership that sold me the vehicle didnt make sure that recall was fixed in 2014. I bought this car in 2016!! this vehicle was used!! I wish we had test drived this car on a hill first!! im paying 19,000 for this car I even went a had to fix the heater core that also went out.. I often service it!! I have no photos to take like how? I am working on getting down to a Dodge dealership to have them take a better look at it!! its so much money for something I thought would be reliable.

We had experienced cold air coming from HVAC in winter and recently had hot air coming on while using the ac.there was recall for 2014but not 2013. I have requested Dodge pay for the repairs as I have already paid to have it diagnosed. We are unable to adjust the HVAC system temps and was advised I need a blend door actuator that should be covered under X64 warranty extension. I would expect Dodge to pay for this. They wanted me to get it diagnosed at a dealership (I paid $75 to have it diagnosed) for 4124 then they would consider paying repairs; made no sens to me. Recall 24-005-16 should be extended to cover my 2013. Please provide Dodge corporate office contact info if you could. I would appreciate whatever can be done to get this fixed. Blend door actuator is in need of repair and I feel as though I should not have to pay for it. Thank you!

Battery is not holding a charge for more than 3 hours. I have taken the vehicle to several mechanics and auto-shops, but no one is able to diagnose the problem. When the battery dies, and I get it towed to a shop, they say they cannot diagnose it unless they charge or jump the battery; but once the battery is charged/jumped, the diagnosis comes back clean. Literally, every morning I need to get the car jump started, else I am stranded. This problem has been sporadic for about the last 7 months, but it has become a regular problem with the past 2 weeks. Once the car rests for more than 3 hours, it dies. I have check the alternator check to see if the diodes are leaking; I have had the starting and charging systems check, but no one can find a resolution to the problem. The power drivers seat has also stopped working about 4 months ago, and the ac lights flicker constantly (even though the ac does work normally) I see there was a previous recall concerning electrical problem with the driver side arm rest, but I don't know if this could possibly be a related issue. Consumer stated other than the power seat and the draining battery, the only other issue consumer noticed was a flickering of the ac lights.

2013 Dodge Grand Caravan: Many problems have to do with failure of two very important software updates not being completed through an actual recall by Chrysler. NHTSA investigated tipm-7 which resulted in inconclusive findings; NHTSA needs to reopen investigation. My car has three defects: Two defects are due to software updates that were never performed. No recall by Chrysler either. The power control module defect was outlined in customer satisfaction notification M38: January 2013. Vehicle history shows no update. The 'poor automatic transaxle shift quality' is due to the software not being updated. Also had to replace transmission. The battery dying three times and being replaced twice over 6-month period is due to the fold and stow module (fsm). Chrysler communicated in a bulletin that the fsm needed to be updated with new software otherwise a dead battery would result due to the fsm 'stay[ing] awake' (dated April 23, 2014). Vehicle history does not show software had been updated. The 3rd issue: Engine stall has occurred in Dodge Grand Caravan 2008-2014. NHTSA investigated the totally integrated power module (tipm) from September 25, 2014 to July 24, 2015: 'the petitioner alleges that tipm defects may result in engine stall [...]" on September 25, 2014, the Office Of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened DP14-004 to evaluate the petition [...].' the findings were 'the most common effect of this defect condition, related to the fuel pump relay, was a no-start concern, but it could also result in stall while driving (76 complaints). Overall, my battery died three times in a 6 month period (fsm), the car does not shift into a higher gear (PCM) on a daily basis, and finally, the car stalled and the power steering locked up (tipm). These cars not only have one defect, but in large part, depending on the year of your vehicle, they have three defects!!!

Riders side headrest has popped forward while driving on highway. Did not hit a bump or any object as the active head restraint deployed on its own. No one was hurt luckily but could have been another neck injury.
