Last month my van started acting up. Not starting all the time and having strange electrical glitches. I assumed it was the battery. I replaced the battery and now it's not starting again. I looked online and found numerous people are having the same exact issue. I am now told this is going to cost me over a thousand dollars to fix. All I want is a reliable vehicle that will get me from point a to point B.

Still no repair. Have attempted to contact Chrysler only to be put on hold for as high as 35 plus minutes and still no help.

The contact owns a 2011 Chrysler Town and country. The contact stated that while attempting to turn the engine off, the key would not turn into the off position until the key was removed.

Blind spot monitoring system failed. The safety system is no longer functioning and the dealer said that both sensors have internal failures. Quoted over $2400 to replace the sensors.
I was driving and the vehicle kept prompting me blind spot service is not available. Like it was trying to reset. After rotating several times, it got stuck with message service blind spot monitor service. Both mirrors had the amber triangle lit up, kind of distracting. Dealer will not cover due to out warranty. Cost is > $2000 for two sensors with harness. I don't understand how both sensors went out at the same time. Each sensor is for each side. If Chrysler had a lifecycle that was short, consumers should have been made aware (similar to changing bulbs, fluids, battery, brakes, etc.). if you review the number of complaints, the vehicle should be recalled for this issue. Seems like Chrysler produced a part which was not fully tested.

A recall was issued for the rear quarter vent window switch in June 2014 and I had the switch disabled as per the recall notice. The replacement part is still unavailable in March 2015. I travel with my dogs in crates in the back of my van and this means less ventilation for them. It would appear that Chrysler has probably figured that they can get away without manufacturing the part to complete the recall. A call to their group recall assistance center assured me that my "call was important to (them)" but obviously not important enough to answer in the 25 minutes I was on hold, which gave me time to fill out this complaint form while I was waiting for them to answer.
