2009 Chrysler Town And Country Other or unknown Problems

“Sometime overnight on jan 1/2nd 2019 my vehicle started on fire. The vehicle was not in use, was parked in our driveway, and had not been in use since the morning before. The fire must have went out on its own. But caused damage to both the inside and outside of the vehicle. The inside of the van smells heavily of electrical smoke.”

“When exiting my vehicle sunday, it would not shut off nor would the key come out. I was finally able to turn the engine off but not get the key out. This meant that the acc mode was allowing power to remain on. Because the dealership was closed on sunday, the power remained on until I could call them monday morning. I was told to jump the vehicle off and bring it in. When driving to the dealership, I realized the radio no longer was functioning because of the power failure caused by the ignition switch that was not working. …”

“While filling the rear driver side tire with air, the aluminum valve stem snapped off causing the tire to completely deflate. Replaced aluminum stem with rubber stem as a temporary fix while searching for replacement parts to the TPMS sensor. Approximately two days later, while attempting to unscrew the valve cap from the rear passenger side tire, the aluminum valve stem broke off in my hand causing the tire to completely deflate. I found after market replacement aluminum valve stems that fit the oem TPMS sensors and had them all replaced. …”

“I bought the vehicle over 15 months prior with 23000 miles. In less than a year, the vehicle would just shut off upon deceleration and/or coming to a stop - usually after exiting the highway. Since then it just shuts off randomly - usually when stopping at a red light. I took the van to the dealer who could not find any codes. Instead, they charged me $300+ for a flush! When I took it back, they told me that it could be the transmission and tightened the wires. The problem remained. …”

“We've been having continuous problem with our tires, constantly losing pressure. We thought it was a tire issue, however every time I had the tires check they could not find anything wrong. Again, we were losing pressure in a tire, I went to fill the tire and the aluminum valve stem broke in two. Fortunately, we were not moving when the stem came apart. When I went to a quick oil change I was informed that their company policy is not to touch the aluminum valve stems because so many had come apart in their employees hands.”
