Our 2012 Chrysler Town and country won't start. The dealer said it is a tipm malfunction and fuel pump malfunction. They want to replace them both. They refuse to help us with the repair cost. We are stranded in cancun, Mexico.

Last January, 2015, I took my vehicle to jim click Chrysler Jeep, 701 w auto mall dr, tucson, AZ 85705 to fulfill a safety recall, P25/NHTSA 14V-234, to have the rear quarter vent window switch replaced due to a possible overheating condition. At that time I was told the parts were not available to repair the vehicle, I would be contacted when they arrive. I have never been contacted; they have my name, address, phone number and email. I just received another recall notice for the same issue.

We got a notice to send our van in for the recall on the switch for the back windows. We took the van to laurelchryslerjeep in johnstown pa. 15904 on July 3rd 2013. Have called many times and they said the part is not in. Over 2 years. That is bull [xxx]. all they did was unplug the windows and that is the fix"?" I think not. I keep getting a notice from your office to fix it. Try sending the notice to the people that can fix it not to me!!! updated 06/15/16 information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

I have been waiting for over a year for the recall on my minivan vent window switch to be replaced. I went to the dealer (contemporary Chrysler in milford nh) in Dec 2014 & they told me the part was on order & would be in soon. In the meantime, they need to disconnect the switch. I have since called the dealership many times & am told I am on the list but the part is not available. It is very inconvenient to be without these windows for over a year. This car is practically brand new & I have to deal with non-functioning vent windows. Very disappointed in Chrysler. I have just received a 2nd notice on this recall P25/NHTSA 14V-234 tomget it fixed. I don't think a year is a reasonable time to wait for recall repair. I'd get it fixed if the part was available. Please help.

Sub: P25nhtsa 14V-234 rear quarter vent window switch we received a safety recall notice a few months ago that stated, "Chrysler has detected that a defect, which relates to motor vehicle safety, exists in some 2010 through 2014 model year Dodge Grand Caravan and Chrysler Town & Country vehicles.? my vehicle falls within the scope of this problem. We contacted arrigo of West palm beach on April 9, 2015 to schedule an appointment to get the vehicle repaired and was informed that ?the part was on backorder and I would be contacted when the part came in.? it has been five months now and they have still not received the required parts as of September 1, 2015. As stated in the safety recall letter, if the dealer fails or is unable to remedy this defect without charge and with in a reasonable time, I may submit a written complaint to the administrator, national traffic safety administration.? we do not understand why it has taken five months or possibly longer for a dealer to receive a safety recall part, so that this safety hazard may be repaired as well as my peace of mind. The problem as stated, ?the rear quarter vent window switch on your vehicle may overheat if exposed to liquid moisture. An overheated rear quarter vent window switch may cause a burning odor, smoke, or a driver's door fire without warning." I am very concerned for my family's safety because we live in Florida and it is very moist here especially during hurricane season. The longer it takes to receive the correct part and fix this issue creates higher safety risk for my family. Thank you for your time and please help us resolve this issue promptly.

The blind spot system failed. I checked with the dealer, and the sensor that has failed would cost over $1000 to replace. I believe that the there is a possible problem with water intrusion that is the root of the issue. While I understand that the vehicle is long out of warranty, for a safety feature to fail (and based on the internet chatter, and the fact that the dealer had the part on a 20+ part back order)...I think that there is a certain design problem. Additionally, the $1000 cost is certainly excessive.

I received a recall notice by mail at the end of 2014 for a rear quarter vent window switch. My 2012 Chrysler Town & Country was taken to the nearest official Chrysler dealership in January, and the switch was disconnected. The dealer did not have it in stock. As of August 2015, the part is still on back order with the manufacturer and this is still an open issue. I find this to be highly unsatisfactory & unacceptable to continue to get recall notices in the mail for a part that the manufacturer cannot support getting out to requested dealers to service their customers!
