One or more low tire pressure sensors on my vehicle is faulty and causing the light on my dash to be illuminated although my tires are not low. I was told by my mechanic that there is a recall for this issue on 2014 Town and Country vans (which is what I have), although apparently my VIN is not included in the recall. Perhaps it should be? It will be causing the same safety issues for me as other 2014 T+C van owners.
A used vehicle, 2014 town country, just got on the road from an inter change, speed limit was 70 mph, thus only going 65, put cruise control on, weather and pavment was dry and excellent conditions, passing gear kicked in causing spinning of front tires and veering off to the right, hitting a utility truck no damage to truck but mine wow !, been having problems with this vehicle since I bought it, problem dealer would not look at problem vehicle was in motion defective sensors assumption.
While traveling daily to work on many occasions, my lights in the dash, my radio and all power up front would go off while driving and just recently while parked.I did not think too much of it so I had replaced the battery and the electronic to the front would continue to fail I was unable to correlate rather anything else could have caused it. My automatic doors would not open although the switch was on and nothing was blocking it. Also my tire pressure indicator light was not going off even after having to replace the tires.
The contact owns a 2014 Chrysler Town and country. The contact stated that the TPMS failed to function properly. One of the TPMS failed, corroded, and caused a tire to puncture. The vehicle also independently accelerated while making a turn on a slight curve. The vehicle was taken to a dealer (troncalli Chrysler Jeep Dodge-Ram, 818 atlanta hwy, cumming, ga 30040, (678) 244-4100) where it was diagnosed. The vehicle was temporarily repaired without a permanent solution. The contact also stated that the dealer failed to provide a detailed diagnosis. An independent mechanic indicated that the computer module failed to function properly, which caused the vehicle to shake violently and caused a crack in the engine. The manufacturer was notified of the failures and provided no remedy other than having the vehicle diagnosed and repaired by a dealer. The failure mileage was not available.

Tire pressure monitoring light came on air pressure in all tires good light will not go out check recall statis and recalls were made on vehicles made in March and April of 2014 and mine was made in July of 2014
Both Chrysler and the dealership knew that the computer module was defective and went out of their way to keep this information from us leaving our entire family and the general public in danger. Our insurance company had us take the car to a nuetral 3rd party to determine that the wreck I had was caused by the car self acceleration. They confirmed it did and that there were numerous errors that were never addressed or warned of. The tire pressure gauge malfunctioned and blew out the rear passenger tire. Both troncalli (the dealership) & Chrysler refused to give us their findings claiming proprietary information and hung up on us. Then we tried to go through mediation, we were told that because the car was involved in a wreck they could not help us even though they knew that the wreck was caused by the malfunction. So we have an undriveable car that we are paying a note and insurance on sitting in our garage. All while we are having to rent cars because I have been having health issues since Sept 2016. The accident occurred while I was making a turn and I hit my neighbor which was parked on the street.
The vehicle vibrates excessively when driven. The seats all move violently. Car dealers have balanced the tires to no avail. The tires wear out unevenly, cupping because of this issue. We just had new tires installed to correct the problem, according to the dealer that was the fix but the car is still vibrating. The dealer looked at the car again and suggested we rotate tires that were just installed 60 days ago. The tires are again wearing unevenly. We need assistance in having this problem resolved once and for all. The car has 1 year or 12,000 miles left on its warranty. I've lost hope that the dealer will be able to resolve the issue.

The TPMS light keeps coming back on. The van has been serviced at the dealership that it was bought from. They did not inform me of the recall or rectify the problem even after mentioning it to them repeatedly.
