WE RENTED THIS VEHICLE IN MICHIGAN TO TAKE ON A FAMILY VACATION TO FLORIDA. ON THE WAY HOME, SOUTH OF ATLANTA ON I-75 IN FOUR LANES OF TRAFFIC WITH THE VEHICLE SET ON CRUISE CONTROL AT 75 MPH, I NOTICED THAT THE CAR AHEAD OF ME WAS GETTING MORE DISTANCE BETWEEN US, WHEN I LOOKED DOWN AT MY SPEED I REALIZED THAT ALL OF THE GAUGES ON THE DASH WERE AT ZERO OR IN THE OFF POSITION, AT THE SAME TIME I NOTICED NO THROTTLE. CALMLY, I PUT THE HAZARD LIGHTS ON AND MADE MY COST ACROSS THE FOUR LANES OF TRAFFIC TO THE SHOULDER...... WITH WHAT SEEMED TO BE NO POWER STEERING. IT WAS ALARMING TO ME THAT THERE WAS NO TONES OR WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH. BEING AWARE OF THE GM IGNITION RECALLS THAT I HAD SEEN ON TV, I LOOKED AT THE IGNITION AND IT WAS IN THE OFF POSITION, TURNED IT AND STARED. BEFORE WE TOOK OFF AGAIN I CHECKED WITH MY LEG TO SEE IF MAYBE IT WAS POSSIBLE THAT MY KNEE HAD BUMPED IT, I AM 6'2 AND I COULDN'T COME CLOSE UNLESS I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE FLOOR. WE DROVE THE REST OF THE WAY HOME AND NO MORE PROBLEMS. THE ONLY THING I CAN ASSUME IT THAT THE KEY HAD A PRETTY HEFTY PLASTIC KEY TAG FROM THE RENTAL COMPANY. I AM TELLING MY STORY NOW BECAUSE OF THE RECENT IGNITION PROBLEMS WITH CHRYSLER I AM LEARNING ABOUT VIA NEWS. *TR

I WAS DRIVING THIS BRAND NEW RENTAL VAN ON A 4-LANE STATE HIGHWAY. I'D BEEN ON THE ROAD LESS THAN AN HOUR WHEN I ENGAGED THE CRUISE CONTROL. THE VAN WAS IN CRUISE MODE FOR AT MOST A COUPLE OF MINUTES WHEN I SENSED THE VAN SLOWING. I LOOKED DOWN TO SEE THE TACHOMETER AT ZERO; I REALIZED ITS ENGINE HAD TURNED OFF. VERY FORTUNATELY FOR ME, THERE WERE NO OTHER VEHICLES CLOSE BY ME. I WAS ABLE TO CRUISE TO THE SHOULDER AND COME TO A STOP. I'M NOT 100% SURE, BUT I BELIEVE ALL OF THE VEHICLE'S POWER WAS OFF (FOR EXAMPLE, I DON'T THINK I HAD POWER STEERING ANYMORE). I PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK, RESTARTED THE IGNITION, AND DECIDED TO CONTINUE ON MY TRIP. I ENDED UP PUTTING JUST OVER 1,000 MILES ON IT OVER THE NEXT 7 DAYS, AND THE INCIDENT DIDN'T HAPPEN AGAIN. DURING THAT TIME, I WAITED PROBABLY FOR ANOTHER 400 MILES BEFORE I RISKED TRYING THE CRUISE CONTROL AGAIN (AGAIN, WHEN NO VEHICLES WERE NEARBY); NO PROBLEMS AGAIN. YET, THIS DEFINITELY COULD HAVE BEEN AN ACCIDENT-INDUCING DEFECT HAD I BEEN IN TRAFFIC IN WHICH THE UNCONTROLLED DECREASE IN SPEED COULD HAVE BEEN DANGEROUS. THIS IS OF COURSE A CHRYSLER PRODUCT, NOT A GM, MY EXPERIENCE WAS STRIKINGLY SIMILAR TO SOME OF THE STORIES I'VE HEARD / READ ABOUT PEOPLE DRIVING COBALTS. I DID REPORT THIS INCIDENT TO THE (ALAMO) RENTAL CAR GUY WHEN I RETURNED THE VEHICLE. BUT AGAIN, AFTER READING ABOUT THE COBALT IGNITION PROBLEMS OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF WEEKS, I FELT COMPELLED TO REPORT THIS TO NHTSA. *TR

THE AIRBAG LIGHT BEGAN GOING ON INTERMITTENTLY, AT MILE 142, ON DAY 3, OF OWNING MY BRAND NEW VEHICLE. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND THEY RESET THE COMPUTER. THE SAME NIGHT, THE PROBLEM RECURRED. THE DEALER SET UP ANOTHER APPOINTMENT FOR ME, ON DAY 8 OF OWNERSHIP. THAT NIGHT, THEY CALLED TO ADVISE ME THAT THE TIPM WAS FAULTY, AND THAT THE PART IS ON BACKORDER. THEY HAVE SINCE PUT ME IN A RENTAL CAR, AND I DON'T KNOW WHEN THE PART WILL BE IN. I HAVE NOW LEARNED THAT THERE IS A CLASS ACTION AGAINST CHRYSLER REGARDING THIS EXACT PART. IT CAUSES MANY DANGEROUS SAFETY ISSUES, NOT LIMITED TO AIRBAG ISSUES. I AM EXTREMELY CONCERNED FOR MY FAMILY'S SAFETY, ONCE I GET MY NEW CAR BACK. I AM UNCONVINCED THAT THE NEW TIPM WILL NOT CONTINUE TO BE A DANGER TO US. *TR

I RECEIVED A SECOND RECALL NOTICE LETTING ME KNOW THAT CHRYSLER HAD FOUND A REPAIR FOR RECALL P25/NHTSA 14V-234 AND TO CALL MY DEALER TO SCHEDULE A REPAIR. WHEN I CALLED THE DEALER WE USUALLY USE (NIKLES IN PETERSBURG, IL) THE VERY RUDE SERVICE GUY TOLD ME THAT THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PARTS IN, DID NOT KNOW WHEN THEY EXPECTED THEM, AND WOULD NOT ORDER THEM. BASICALLY, REFUSING TO DO THE REQUIRED RECALL REPAIR. I HAD TO CALL ANOTHER DEALER AND THEY WERE VERY NICE AND EXPLAINED THAT I NEEDED TO BRING THE CAR IN AND THEY WOULD NEED TO QUICKLY CHECK AND SEE IF I HAD A GREEN OR BLUE SWITCH AND THEN THEY COULD ORDER THE PART AND COMPLETE THE REPAIR. I TRIED TO CALL THE NUMBER PROVIDED BY CHRYSLER TO REPORT THE FIRST DEALER REFUSING TO DO THE REPAIR AND HAD TO LISTEN TO AN OUTDATED RECALL MESSAGE (FROM BEFORE THEY FOUND A REPAIR AND WERE JUST DISABLING) AND THEN WAITED ALMOST AN HOUR ON HOLD BEFORE HANGING UP AND TRYING THIS WEBSITE.

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. SURE I THE DRIVER HAD A BUTTON ON THE FRONT CONSOLE AND ANOTHER ONE ON MY KEY FOB, TO RELEASE THE REAR LIFT DOOR, BUT THE PERSON IN THE REAR WAS TRAPPED AS SHE HAD NO WAY TO OPEN THE DOOR FROM THE INSIDE. THAT IS BOTH A INCONVENIENCE ISSUE AND A SAFETY ISSUE. BUT THERE SHOULD BE A BUTTON WITH A CHILD LOCK TO PREVENT KIDS SITTING IN THE REAR FROM OPENING THE DOOR THEMSELVES OR TO ALLOW AN ADULT TO OPEN THE LIFT DOOR THEMSELVES

6/29/2015

THE SECOND ROW OF SEATING SPRINGS FORWARD AS IF SPRING LOADED IN THIS CASE STRIKING ME IN THE FACE AS I LEANED BACK TO ASSIST A BACK ROW PASSENGER. NORMALLY THE SEAT IS RELEASED AND PUSHED FORWARD. THIS MECHANISM IS RELEASED UNDER SUCH FORCE THAT THERE IS NO TIME TO PROTECT YOURSELF FROM THE FULL FORCE OF THE SEAT. NO WARNING APPEARS ON THE RELEASE MECHANISM. IT IS POORLY DESIGNED AND DANGEROUS. MY NOSE IS STILL SORE FROM THE BLOW. *TR

CONSUMER STATED WHILE TRYING TO FOLD DOWN THE REAR SEAT IT CAME SLAMMING DOWN ON HIS HAND. *LN THE CONSUMER STATED HE FOLLOWED THE NUMBERED STRAPS AS INSTRUCTED AND THE LAST STRAP MADE THE SEAT SLAM DOWN ON HIS HAND, WHICH WAS PLACED ON THE TOP OF THE REAR BUMPER AS STABILITY AND LEVERAGE FOR REACHING IN TO PULL THE STRAPS. THE SKIN ON HIS HAND WAS TORN. IT TOOK SEVERAL DOCTOR VISITS AND X-RAYS TO DETERMINE THE BONE WAS NOT BROKEN, BUT THERE WAS A DEEP CONTUSION.

WE WERE DRIVING 55MPH ON ROUTE 100 IN MARYLAND WHEN THE DRIVER'S KNEE BUMPED THE KEY AND THE IGNITION MOVED INTO THE OFF POSITION. THE ENGINE TURNED OFF. THE CAR LOST POWER STEERING AND BRAKES. WE TRIED TO RESTART THE CAR WHILE IT WAS STILL IN MOTION BUT IT DID NOT RESTORE THE POWER BRAKES OR POWER STEERING. WE PULLED OVER AND PUT IT IN PARK AND TURNED OFF THE IGNITION. WE RESTARTED THE VEHICLE SUCCESSFULLY. WE THEN REPRODUCED THE EVENT BY BUMPING THE DRIVER'S KNEE INTO THE KEY AGAIN WHILE PARKED, WITH THE SAME RESULTS. THIS WAS A RENTAL VAN FROM ENTERPRISE RENTAL CAR IN COLUMBIA, MD. *TR

USING CRUISE CONTROL: UPON HITTING RESUME, VEHICLE ACCELERATED RAPIDLY TO ABOUT 10 MPH MORE THAT THE EXPECTED RECENT CRUISE SPEED, THEN CRUISE CONTROL SHUT OFF. WHEN I TURNED CRUISE BACK ON, THE LIGHT INDICATED IT WAS ACTIVE, BUT PRESSING THE SET BUTTON MADE THE CRUISE TURN BACK OFF. ONLY AFTER TURNING OFF THE ENGINE COMPLETELY COULD I GET CRUISE TO WORK AGAIN, BUT ONCE AGAIN, UPON USING THE RESUME BUTTON, RAPID ACCELERATION TO AT LEAST 10MPH MORE THAT LAST CRUISE SPEED, THEN CRUISE SHUT DOWN. VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY AT DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTICS. AND THEY JUST REPORTED THAT THEY CAN NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, NOR DO THEY HAVE A SOLUTION. I ASKED THEM TO CONTACT CHRYSLER ENGINEERS TO SEE IF THERE WAS A SUGGESTION, BECAUSE I DO NOT WANT TO GO THROUGH ANOTHER SCARY UNEXPECTED ACCELERATION EPISODE AGAIN. NOR DO I WANT TO HAVE TO DRIVE FROM INDIANA TO SOUTH CAROLINA WITH BENEFIT OF CRUISE CONTROL AGAIN. ANOTHER SYMPTOM IS THAT THE DTE DISPLAY FAILED TO DROP BELOW 40 AFTER THE GAS FUEL LIGHT CAME ON - IN FACT, THE FARTHER I DROVE WITH THE FUEL LIGHT ON, THE DTE EVEN ADVANCED TO 41 AND 42! ALMOST RAN OUT OF FUEL BECAUSE I WAS RELYING ON THE DTE DISPLAY. *TR

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.

HOW COME WE WERE NOTIFIED OF WHAT APPEARS TO BE A FAIRLY SIMPLE RECALL AT LEAST 6 MONTHS AGO (TO REPLACE A WINDOW SWITCH) AND NOTHING HAS HAPPENED. IT APPEARS THAT THIS RECALL ALONG WITH MANY OTHERS ARE JUST BEING IGNORED BY THE CAR COMPANIES. IS THERE NO TIME LIMIT OR ENFORCEMENT WITH THESE RECALLS? MY FEELING IS THAT IF THE CAR COMPANIES CAN WAIT LONG ENOUGH THESE CARS WILL AGE-OUT AND GO AWAY. *TR

12/5/2014

WE RECEIVED A NOTICE OF THE REAR QUARTER VENT WINDOW SWITCH SAFETY RECALL IN MAY OF 2014, INDICATING THAT THERE WAS AN ISSUE AND THAT WE'D BE CONTACTED AGAIN WHEN REPAIRS COULD BE ADDRESSED. WE DID NOT RECEIVE ANOTHER NOTICE UNTIL JANUARY 2015, WHICH SAID WE'D NEED TO CONTACT OUR DEALER TO SCHEDULE A REPAIR. WHEN CONTACTING OUR DEALER, MULTIPLE TIMES... THEY FINALLY TOLD US THAT THEY'RE GETTING ABOUT 2 PARTS PER WEEK... AND THERE IS A BACKLOG OF OVER 20 PEOPLE ON THE LIST AHEAD OF US. THIS AMOUNT OF TIME TO RESOLVE A SAFETY ISSUE IS UNACCEPTABLE. PLEASE HELP ADDRESS THIS SO THAT THE PROCESS MAY BE IMPROVED. *TR

I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE ON 10-30-14 AND TOOK IT TO THE DEALER SERVICE DEPT. ON 1-13-15 WITH THE COMPLAINT THE RADIO FUNCTION / STATION /TIME DISPLAY IS SO DIM THAT IT CAN NOT BE READILY BE SEEN IN DAYLIGHT UNLESS IT HAPPENS TO BE SHADED . ON A BRIGHT SUNNY DAY, IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO READ IT, EVEN THE TIME DISPLAY IS HARD TO READ. I WAS SURPRISED WHEN THE DEALER TOLD ME IT WAS NORMAL. THE SAFETY ISSUE IS VERY CLEAR TO ME. IN ORDER TO EVEN SEE THE TIME, A DRIVER HAS TO TAKE THEIR EYES OFF THE ROAD AND LOOK AT IT FOR A LONGER THAN NORMAL TIME. SAME FOR SEEING THE RADIO FUNCTION OR STATION. ALSO A DRIVER MAY SHADE THE DISPLAY WITH THE RIGHT HAND IN ORDER TO SEE IT. GM VEHICLES ALL HAVE A BRIGHT CLEAR DISPLAY THAT CAN BE SEEN IN THE STRONGEST SUNLIGHT. I CAN SAY FOR SURE THAT ACCIDENTS ARE GOING TO HAPPEN BECAUSE PEOPLE WILL BE TAKING THEIR EYES OFF THE ROAD AND RIGHT HAND OFF THE WHEEL TO SEE THESE RADIOS. I CONSIDER THIS TO BE NOT ONLY A MAJOR DESIGN DEFECT , BUT A LACK OF COMMON SENSE. THANKS *TR

I PULLED OUT OF A WELL LIGHTED GAS STATION AT NIGHT AND MY INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTS COME ON AUTOMATICALLY SO I ASSUMED MY HEADLIGHTS WERE ALSO ON .AS I PROCEEDED TO RT 50 AND MADE THE RIGHT TURN, IT WAS PITCH BLACK EXCEPT FOR THE DASH LIGHTS WHICH WERE FULLY LIT .THE PROBLEM WAS I COULDN'T FIND THE SWITCH TO TURN ON THE HEADLIGHTS BECAUSE WITH THE HEADLIGHTS OFF, THE SWITCH WASN'T ILLUMINATED. I WAS NOW IN A SERIOUS PANIC. I WAS MOVING SLOW BUT COULDN'T SEE THE ROAD OR WHERE I WAS IN THE ROAD! I FINALLY CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. I WAS AFRAID SOMEONE WAS GOING TO HIT ME FROM BEHIND. MY WIFE AND I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED! I FINALLY FOUND THE SWITCH AFTER ABOUT A MINUTE. THIS HAS ALSO BEEN A PROBLEM WHILE DRIVING AT DUSK AND THE DASH LIGHTS COME ON AUTOMATICALLY AND AS IT GETS DARKER YOU DON'T REALIZE YOUR HEADLIGHTS AREN'T ON. ONE TIME A FRIEND WAS FOLLOWING US AND CALLED US ON THE CELL PHONE TO LET US KNOW OUR LIGHTS WEREN'T ON! NOTE: WE DROVE A 2000 CARAVAN FOR 14 YEARS AND KNEW TO TURN ON THE HEADLIGHTS WHEN WE COULDN'T SEE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. SAME WITH ALL MY VEICHLES BEFORE THAT. WE'VE BEEN CONDITIONED , THAT'S HOW IT WORKS.
