“My rear quarter vent windows were on a recall and I took it to the Dodge dealership (may 2014) where they disconnected the automatic switch to the windows. It has now been non-operational since then. I have contacted Dodge corporate offices and the dealership on a routine basis to be constantly told they have no idea when this will be repaired. This is beyond a reasonable time to fix something like this. Please help me as I would like to have my windows operational. Dodge simply does not seem to care and have no interest or priority in repairing this defect. Thanks”
NHTSA complaint #10668516, filed 2014-12, 10,000 miles“At times when you turn the air on hot air comes out or when you turn the heat on cold air will come on even after turn it off and back on or shutting the vehicle off.the suspension rattles a lot when going over bumps.the engine runs rough and idles rough usually when it is cold out or rainy but not always. Stalls at red lights and the check engine light comes on until it runs better.”
NHTSA complaint #10712514, filed 2015-04, 3,000 miles“When the foot ventilation button is selected with the inter circulation button pushed in the air condition comes on whether or not the cold or heat is selected but when you push any control button but feet the A/C goes off called Dodge and they said this is normal only does it on the 2013.”
NHTSA complaint #10618785, filed 2014-08, 5,000 miles“Recall p25 for rear vent window switch has been out for six months. I contacted the dealer and there is still no replacement part. I contacted the chrysler recall number for more information ...they had none. Six months is an unreasonable amount of time. Why is there no replacement part? When will there be a replacement part? These are simple questions that the dealer and the manufacturer cannot or will not answer. I would think that given six months there would be some effort to fix my car or at least explain why the delay and give an estimate of time when they intend to fix it. …”
NHTSA complaint #10653945, filed 2014-11“The contact owns a 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan. While the vehicle was turned on, the heater would not operate and the front windshield could not be defrosted, impairing the visibility of the driver. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who was unable to diagnose the cause of the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 12,000.”
