My van was repaired under a factory recall on March 21, 2016. On paper, it's called "R-03 ignition mode". prior to that the car would have trouble starting, sometimes not able to start it at all. The repair fixed it and I was issued a new key. About a year ago, it started again. This time though, it always starts after it turns over for 3-10 seconds. Occasionally it won't start the first time but always starts on the second try. We have had it to a mechanic over the past year three different time, and they all think it's a problem that the dealership needs to handle. They have not been able to find the problem despite us spending over $500 replacing things they thought it might be. I have tried using the other key and the same problem happens. The problem has gotten worse over the months. At first it would only do it once in awhile. For the past six months at least, it does it every time I try to start the car.

I recently purchased a 2010 Dodge Grand Caravan. The car shuts off on me while driving. It will start back up after you put it in park and turn it back on but it just shuts off. It shut off on me twice on the highway with my kids in the car and four times while driving in the city.it makes this weird noise when turning left and the lights are flickering on and off. If that's not enough the doors seem to just open and close on there own the trunk shut on me while I was getting groceries out. I brought the car into the shop and they said they can't duplicate the shutting off and claimed they fixed the door opening in it's own problem.well the doors continue to open and now they are hard to open with the key and you have to manually open them. This is a safety concern and the dealer is claiming there is nothing wrong please help me.

Often after starting the vehicle and in drive it will automatically shut off. I have to put in neutral and turn ignition over again to make it drive again. This happens at stop lights, city streets and expressways. The radio and air will still work but I'm just coasting with no power steering.

The 2010 Dodge Grand Caravan left hand side wiring loom wears on an aluminum obtrusion beneath where it lies. This causes the wire's shielding to be worn off and causes shorting. The engine will die when the wire contacts metal or each other during travel. This problem will cause the engine to die at road speeds leaving the vehicle without steering, brakes, and other safety related equipment. I believe this to be common and undetected because the wear point is on the underside of the wiring loom near the engine. The harness is hard to lift and inspect because of the location and lack of slack at the point of the obtrusion. Vibration causes the short, the vehicle will normally start after coming to a stop when there is no friction between the worn wires. I believe this should be reviewed and analyzed for a recall because of the safety issue involved as others have stated but are unaware of the cause. I have added additional wrapping to limp my vehicle home during a three hour trip. Additionally, this form would not let me select steering, brakes, or other safety features when I selected electrical, which is specifically what causes the safety issues.

Since getting the vehicle in Oct. 2018, its been in the shop for starter issues. We have replaced the starter 4 times and still doesn't want to start. The next thing we did was replace the tipm module and 2 days later still having a problem with it starting. At times it takes 1-5 minutes to start and at times it doesn't want to start at all. Not sure what is wrong with it. Needless to say we have paid close to $1600 on the vehicle and it still isn't fixed.

I bought my 2010 van in 2017. March 1st 2019 my complete and brake control module has completely failed. My brake, ABS, esp bad and traction sensor lights remain on my dash board, and I have no emergency braking at all. I have no idea how a complete ABS braking system computer can just fail. The light came on while I was driving in traffic.

The engine will cut off while the vehicle is driving. It does not stall or sputter to a stop, it is an immediate cut off. The vehicle has a brand new battery, and the alternator and starter passed inspection and tested fine. When the engine stops, we attempt to start it back up but the engine doesn't turn over. It will eventually start back up after a few minutes.

Mileage: 100,000 the engine will cut out while driving. Dash lights will flash, warning chime will beep, and the vehicle will rev and lurch forward before dying. This leaves the car at a coast. When the vehicle is brought to a stop, it restarts without a problem. Has happened in cold and warm weather alike.. has happened while coasting, braking, and accelerating. Most stalls have been while driving straight in the city. No highways stalls to date. Cause: Unkown; we have not been able to reproduce the event reliably, though it now occurs with some frequency (e.g. driving more than 20 min). I suspect the power control module (PCM) or the ignition switch somehow moving between on and accessory modes. Available data: Issues similar to this one can be found on forums, it does not seem that many have been able to resolve the problem, despite replace the computer and alternator.

Can shut off when driving I have to come to a full stop put in park and turn it back on. While this happens you lose all-powerful no brakes no starting no gas. Very scary I was traveling around 45mph when it shut off this time I was completely in head on lane when I was able to steer it back.

- Glenville, PA, USA

The speedometer flatlines and the lights flicker indicating 'brakes, traction control, ABS, battery, temp, and direction'. a warning dings and it goes on and off a few times with all the flickering. Pull onto the side of the road and upon applying brakes to a full stop the car feels like it stalls and then comes back in without assistance. Now the clock has reset to 12:00. Turn off car and restart all clear for now. All is well until it randomly happens again. Scary with kids in the car or in the winter. Not cool Dodge....not cool at all!

- Barrington, NH, USA

The van started randomly shutting down/turning off/stalling (however you want to term it) while in drive and in motion. Happens at any speed, any road conditions, all gas levels, and any temperature. Last occurrence was 4 times in less than 10 mins. 3 separate mechanics have no idea what's wrong and since it can't be produced at will, they are unable to diagnose. It's only a matter of time before something happens and results in an accident. This has been ongoing since September 2018.
