“Vehicle was parked in driveway 7/9/20. I did not enter the van again until 7/11/20. Upon opening the driver's door I noticed the headrest had deployed. I understand this is a safety feature when you are in a rear end collision. There was no collision van was backed in driveway and stationary. It appears the brackets that hold the pin are broke. The passage headrest did not deploy, but iam now fearfull it may.”

“The rear passenger sliding door makes a loud buzzing sound and sometimes refuses to close. I have seen many complaints for the caravans and chrysler town and country minivans with the same issue. The buzzing sound sounds like an air compressor running. The doors look as though it latches but comes back unmatched. I'm reading that this would be the lock actuator. I always double check that the door is closed but I'm afraid I will be in a hurry and the door will come open while my children are riding in the back.”

“Accelerator sticks when full throttle is applied. I traded a 2010 chrysler lx van I had for 5 years in on this vehicle and it had the same problem. The chrysler accelerator was replaced twice, once at my expense and once on a recall and the problem was not corrected. Today was the first time I experienced this problem with the Dodge van I bought in january 2016. From previous experience I knew what to do or I could have had a serious accident. I was on a 4-lane city street and changing lanes at the time the problem occurred. …”

“I went on a trip with 5 people. My Grand Caravan has 4 bucket style seats, 2 in front 2 in the middle. In the rear of my vehicle which has the stow and go seating option there are two seats. One is for 1 person the other for 2 people. I opened the seat for two, even though there was only one sitting in the rear. I closed the rear door after my friend was seated. When we got to our destination the 4 front people in front got out. We then discovered the person in the rear had no way to open the rear door from the inside. …”
