We own a 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan with 41000 miles on it that has been stalling while driving at mostly in town speeds. No power steering assist, no power brake assist. This vehicle is equipped with hand controls for a disabled driver. With one hand on the steering wheel and one hand on the brake lever all you can do is coast to a stop. Yes the same failures as the 2008 thru 2010 Grand Caravan that were recalled. The ignition switch has a weak detent spring in it. We had the switch and both keys replaced at a local dealership in rural Wisconsin that just happened to have the switch in stock. The service writer got into the vehicle and jiggled the key which shut of the ignition and stated yes this is a bad switch just like the recalled ones.. I have called Chrysler asking for them to cover the cost of $977.91 and they just reply with " I am sorry but your vehicle is out of warranty"

The ac was not working. Had it charged. Still no ac. Took the van to a shop and found via diagnostics something with the tippin module was wrong as well as a warning on the transmission that may be from the tippin module being bad was explained. Two months left on payments. Very pricey repair. My wife myself and our 5 kids will be walking for a bit. I recommend folks think twice on purchasing a Caravan.

Grand Caravan

  • 38,500 miles
The "clock spring" behind the steering wheel broke which caused the steering wheel located electrical buttons to stop functioning for making uconnect phone calls, adjusting the radio volume, switching from one media (fm, am, cd, audio streaming and satellite radio) to another, accessing the dash panel odometer, outside temperature, digital speedometer reading, avg mpg, miles to go before running out of fuel and the reset function. This happened whether or not the vehicle was moving or turning or stationary.

Grand Caravan

  • 68,000 miles
Monday 3/25/19 10:55am car indicator lights briefly flashed while car was in motion during a turn and then suddenly died. No brakes, no power steering, absolutely nothing worked. Was able to turn car back on and get to parking lot. Same day after leaving(2:30pm) sitting at a busy intersection waiting on red light. Car dash lights again briefly flash and car turns off. Took about 10 min before I was able to start the car again. While sitting in a busy turn lane and not even having hazard lights work with kids in the car. Took car to get battery, alternator, and starter checked. All checked out good. Friday 3/29/19 while driving at 45 mph(8:30 am) car dash lights briefly flash and car turns off. Again no power steering, brakes ect. Waa able to coast to side of rode. Couldn't even take the key out. Also took about 1.5 hrs before it would start again. Each occurance has also set clocks back to the 12:00 time. Research has shown me that it is a common problem with this vehicle and that it is the fuel pump relay. This part was recalled on durangos and Jeep but Caravan did not make the list. Although per what I have read on this site and various others it is an obvious common problem. Vehicle is at 68,000 and is being taken in on Sunday 3/31/19. Where I have already indicated to mechanic what I want replaced due to the fact it is not an easily replicated problem on command and there is no code to check. It seems like the best course of action to tell them to just replace it. This should be a recall matter.

Grand Caravan

  • 55,000 miles
I flipped on my brights, while driving at night on back roads. The dash lights all lit up, the light brightness began blinking in and out, and even the radio switched off and on. When I turned the brights off, the airbag light stayed lit, then the stability assist light lit back up. I flipped the brights on again, with the same result as the first time. I have since been made aware that the tipm is faulty. I had a problem with the airbag light at mile 172 when I first bought the vehicle new. At that time, I was told that the original tipm was faulty and it was replaced. 55000 miles on the vehicle, and we are working on tipm number three. Both of our tipm issues have involved airbag function, which makes this a dangerous problem.
