The vehicle was serviced last year for the same issue. The head was replaced twice then they replaced the wiring harness for the main computer. The van still has the issue that comes and goes. It will be fine one day and then one day going up a hill it will get real jerky and bumpy for another few days. It happened last february so we took it to a local dealer who replaced the oil sending unit under warranty. Also they had to replace the alternator and belt which was $700 out of pocket. I feel there is something wrong with this engine because other people are complaining about the same thing. They replaced a head on 1-15-2016 then replaced it again on 1-29-2015. They replaced the wiring harness on 3-4-2016. The alternator and belt was on 2-27-2017. Now we have the same issue happening aga

I flipped on my brights, while driving on back roads at night. 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 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.

My 2014 Dodge grand caravan left side sliding door has suddenly become stuck. The vehicle was just sitting in my driveway when I came out one morning and it would not open. I cant unlock it manually or with the fob. When I googled the problem I see there is a slew of people all over the country with the same problem, with many different years of grand caravan's. Dodge has not done a recall because, I understand from others, that Dodge is charging $1100 per vehicle to fix the problem. Can you press them to do a recall? This is a safety issue since in an emergency to the right side of the vehicle, passengers will not be able to exit through the left side door.

My wife was driving our 2014 Dodge grand caravan with our three young children in the car. When the brakes went spongy. It severely impacted her ability to brake safely. She was driving on a city road at about 45 MPH when this happened. I took the van to golling chyrsler, Dodge Jeep dealership hoping that they would cover it under warranty. The van is not even 3 years old but it has 50,000 miles on it so there reply was you should've bought and extended warranty. Their diagnosis was the power brake booster went bad and needs to be replaced. Now the dealership and when I called Chrysler and they said the same thing basically I should've bought an extended warranty. All of the independent shops I called around for quotes said it is extremely rare for a brake booster to go bad a
