The contact owns a 2003 Chrysler Town and country. While driving approximately 40 mph, the vehicle stalled and would not restart. The battery had to be jumped in order for the vehicle to restart. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The failure occurred on a daily basis.

I own a 2003 Chrysler Town & Country that I purchased new in Oct. Of 2003 from mortiz in fort worth, Texas. Since purchasing this van it has been used for mostly long distance trips and has been serviced regularly. At the end of January 2007 my transmission solenoid pack started leaking. On Feb. 15, 2007 I bought a new solenoid pack from madison square Chrysler in huntsville, Alabama. I installed this item myself being that all that was involved was unbolting the old one and installing the new one. On Feb. 20, 2007 with mileage of 87918 I had the transmission fluid flushed by the above mentioned dealer as well as oil change and maintenance checks. On Feb. 28, 2007 the check engine light came on. I returned to the dealer on March 1, 2007 with mileage of 87990 for another round of service costing $1033.42. On April 21, 2007 with mileage of 89955 I had complete transmission failure with my two children in the van. I have not taken any action at this time to get this resolved because I cannot afford to pay for a new or rebuilt transmission.
Liftgate suddenly popped open without warning while driving. The dealership indicated that they were going to replace the tailgate module and that should correct the problem. The van wouldn't start and no problem was found, the battery was replaced, the vehicle did not start again and a new battery was installed, the liftgate module was replaced and the battery leaked and left a powdery substance on the concrete.
