Example complaints

“As I was driving my Town And Country Chrysler minivan on a busy road the engine shutoff. I almost got hit by the car behind me as I could no longer drive since the engine shut off. I put on my hazards and pulled over in order to put the van in park and restart the van. My kids were with me. We could have been severely injured if the car behind me had hit me.”

NHTSA complaint #10693837, filed 2015-03, 64,000 miles

“Brand new Chrysler Town And Country 2010 with 600 miles on it blew a gasket on the return line to the radiator that sprayed coolant over the engine block. Steam rose from under the hood in large volume nearly blinding me as I drove. When I stopped the truck and lifted the hood the steam cloud burned my face.”

NHTSA complaint #10342319, filed 2010-07, 621 miles

“Our 2010 Chrysler Town And Country stalls (turns off) unexpectedly. This has happened multiple times, and does not produce any error codes in the computer. Normally this has happened at speeds less than 35 MPH and early in our journeys.”

NHTSA complaint #10667762, filed 2014-12, 77,850 miles

“Engine stalls at lower speeds while in drive or reverse mode. This is happening more than 10 times in 3 weeks. I contacted dealer & manufacturer but there is no recall history with it and they are not willing to do any service even though it's under warranty until they prove it or some kind of diagnostic in engine. I have to put the vehicle in park mode and restart the engine this may be an issue when you are in middle of the road and potential for accident to happen.”

NHTSA complaint #10447389, filed 2012-02, 20,800 miles

“We received safety recall l25 for our 2010 Chrysler town & country van. Our dealer indicates there are very limited parts available and they would call us when they get the part in, but there are 30 people waiting ahead of us. We are concerned as our van engine shut off while driving on july 21 and we had to pull to the side of the road and restart the engine. Thank goodness we were not on an expressway. What can we do to get the replacement part so we do not end up having an accident.”
