I was driving my van which I have had nothing but trouble with this dodge caravan, go to turn at the intersection and it just shuts off started right back up but starting to turn and it just shut off. Happened twice now, had the battery checked and every thing else seemed good just didn-??t know why this happened but it almost got us hot the first time. There are a lot of dodge vans that aren-??t included in the S44 recall and our VIN numbers don-??t pop up. I mean the air bags are killing people in these dodges now, I-??ve had nothing but a hard time with this vehicle. They are unsafe, if I wasn-??t poor and could afford a good van and not bottom of the barrel I wouldn-??t be dealing with this it seems. But the poor are expendable. I-??d rather take my kids in my beat up ford than in my new van. That-??s crazy. It-??s going to get someone killed if it hasn-??t already happened.

This is the second report I have put in. I have found some information since the first report I have a problem with my transmission on my Grand Caravan. There is a recall for vehicles built between 7/31/15 and 4/18/2016 and is the R/T trim package. I found out that all the Grand Caravans have the same engine and transmission in them. I would like to know why the they only say the R/T model when my vehicle falls within the specified dates. Did they pick the R/T model because they sold the least amount of those vehicle in the dates listed" I am not the first person that has had the same issue as me. Can someone explain this to me"

Van started fine and as I was driving the engine started revering hard and felt like it was having a hard time sifting lucky I was near my mechanic and they did that plug in and test it because the engine light came on right when I pulled in and said the transmission is gone they where able to find a rebuilt engine for my van and replaced old with a compatible engine now when this happened I had 60,000 miles. He did tell me that unfortunately they have seen this issue alot with the dodge caravan transmission just cuts out like this with no warning at all and I Googled this issue and it seems to happened to alot of other van owners. There is another issue going on that every time I get in my van before putting the key in the ignition there's a humming sound and when I park and pull out my key after car is off it makes a humming noise I have no clue what is going on but when I Google this issue it seems to be a escalator I don't know why there's not a recall on what is causing this to go on but it seems to be a dodge grand van issue.

Transmission fluid pressure pump/sensor failure Just like all the other Dodge grand caravan vehicles of this year !

- Imperial Beach , CA, USA

I have the transmission pump fail and cause the torque converter to fail. With transmission failed may have caused an accident. I had a mechanic look at issue and found out the problem with the transmission and cost of repair. Has not been inspected at this time. I did not have any prior notice with lights or check engine light on in the car before issue with the transmission. Dodge has a recall S44 which lists the R/T Grand Caravan as this problem will occur. It has to fall in the date of manufacture between Jul 3, 2015 and April 18, 2016. I do not have the R/T model but car was manufactured within the dates listed above. Maybe this recall needs to be expanded to other models built in the same range of dates.
