Van started and key stuck, then when the key get finally removed the engine stay on and won't shut off unless remove cables from battery. when the battery cables are connected again the engine start by itself without a key or the ignition is on without the key and the only way to shut off the van or to turn off the ignition is to disconnect the cables from the battery or it stays on or won't shut off. running the battery out and your gas tank empty.

Similar to other reports; vehicle will randomly lose power and/or stall. it has happened at slow speeds, stopped at a light, and even on the highway going 70mph. have to take key out of ignition, wait a few seconds and turn back on and car starts up. also now having issues to turn on. lights on dash will blink and dim; radio shuts off; ebs, anti lock brake, engine light all begin to blink. idle needles gets low. power brakes lose function. we have owned the car since march 2016, car has 56000 miles. taken to dealer a few times where the pcm was changed and issued not resolved. changed faulty pulley on belt system and issue not resolved. computer does not come back with any codes. local mechanic checked for starter, alternator, ignition switch issues and all showing good. vehicle is not part of dodge recall of other 2010 that are having exact same issue.

While operating the vehicle, the interior lights, radio, air conditioner and windows become inoperable. the lights, radio, and air turn off, and the windows will not go up or down. the head lights still work, but the rest do not. then they come back on out of nowhere. then off and on and off and on... while sitting still and while driving. this has happened multiple times. and i fear it's going to start an electrical fire while we are in the vehicle.

Two years ago there was a recall on the 2009-2010 dodge caravans for the ignition switch turning off while the vehicle was being driven. i was told that my van was not a part of that recall, however there have been 5 instances where i have been driving in a parking lot or down a neighbor street when the van's engine just turns off and i loose stirring and braking ability. this morning when i was pulling out into traffic onto a main road this occurred again, but this time i was in danger and almost hit by several cars. the only way i can get the van to restart is to put it in park and try and start it. it usually takes to or 3 times before it will start, it seems to get stuck and the engine keeps trying to start until finally it will start and i can get it moving again. this van is the main vehicle for our family and after this morning i m in fear of my life and the lives of my children. please look into this and help me get this fixed by the manufacturer. the number of impacted vehicles is greater than the recall they did a few years ago.

The vehicle stall while driving forward on the streets, in motion, it shuts off completely disabling power steering, brakes, etc.

The dodge dealer does not have the parts needed for recall r03/nhtsa 14v-373 concerning the win module and fobik replacement. i have received numerous letters about this condition from chrysler corp over many months and still no parts. i have 9 other same vehicles with the same recall.

In late 2014, the van started having intermittent issues starting & would occasionally stall while driving. issues started to progressively get worse over the next year. the van would have to be jumped to start on a daily basis. the van was in for service at a dodge dealership in november 2015, but they stated it was a battery issue. the battery was 1 year old and we had it tested at wal-mart, where we purchased it and it tested ok. we then had it tested at advance auto & auto zone and it tested ok there as well. we did not believe it was a battery issue, we believe the tipm is the issue. in december 2015 we noticed we could hear something running after the van's ignition was off and the key was out. the fuel pump was still running and would drain the battery everyday. an external fuel pump relay was installed and the fuel pump no longer ran after the van was off. the van would still have intermittent starting and stalling issues. after reading all the issues other 2010 dodge products were having associated with the tipm, i asked a dodge service guy about my van. he agreed that the tipm would explain all the issues that i have with my van, but there was no open recall and the part was on a national backorder. the part is now available for >$800! on january 25, 2016, the van stalled again and i could not get it to start. i had to get someone to come jump it off, however, this time it took a while to get the van to start even being jumped. i bought another car the next day and parked that van at our home. it has been sitting there since january 2016. chrysler is well aware of these issues in the 2010 grand caravan, but they refuse to take ownership. this is disappointing especially since chrysler knows the recalled tipms in the 2010 durangos & grand cherokees are the same in the 2010 grand caravans. i was a loyal chrysler customer until this!

This problem has happened numerous times and continues to do so. when the van is running and in park it will not shift out of park unless i play with the key (jostle it around) the shift lever then is very hard to shift (as if it is half engaged). when the van is off i try to start the car but it doesn't start unless i remove the key and put it back in numerous times. the key has come out while it was running and i could not turn the car off until i put it back in the ignition and played with it for a few minutes. from the forums i have read this sounds exactly like what is happening with the recalled ignition parts but my vin number doesn't seem to be on that recall list? there is no key-chain on the keys and never had any.

We have been experiencing intermittent issues with our van not starting or stalling for no reason. we are also having issues with our key fob working to lock and unlock doors intermittently. this does not happen every day and cannot be predicted but appears to be related to the ignition switch. we have taken it for service and replaced batteries in key fobs. however, the issues have not been replicated during service. our van was not included in the ignition recall. we would like to request reconsideration.

Tl* the contact owns a 2010 dodge grand caravan. while driving approximately 10 mph, a thumping noise was heard under the hood of the vehicle. as the contact continued to drive, the engine began to rev and the vehicle began to slow down and would not accelerate. the instrument panel lights began to flicker and smoke appeared under the hood and through the vents inside the vehicle. the vehicle stalled. the contact stated that the connecting rod fractured, there was a hole through the engine block, and the water and oil lines were severed. the vehicle was towed. the contact was unsure if a police report was filed. the contact's spouse, a certified mechanic, diagnosed that the connecting rod was fractured and blew a hole through the engine. the engine, motors, computer board, and brakes needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the failures. the approximate failure mileage was 54,800.

We purchased this vehicle used and have had no major issues with it. recently, at low speeds (less than 35mph) the vehicle will stop running. the indications are: -car is moving from but slows without braking because power is not being supplied to make the car go. -the tachometer drops to zero, because the engine is not running. -the ets (electronic traction system) light turns on -vehicle is harder to steer because power steering is not available when engine is not running. the remedy is to: -pull over, put in park and start from the get go. -pop the vehicle into neutral and start on the go i noticed there was an open recall on this vehicle to replace the wim (nhtsa campaign number: 14v373000) with one of the symptoms being the ignition key inadvertently moves to the accessory or off position while running. i took it in to our local dodge dealer and they performed the recall for us. within a few days, the exact same thing was happening. so we took it back. the same dealer did the following: -cleared the computer codes to have a clean capture -updated our pcm, apparently there was an flash upgrade. we drove it over the weekend, things seemed fine. but then, it did it again. twice in the span of about 20 minutes. i took it back to the dealer to see what the codes were. now they have determined: -the tpim is the problem -and the inverter is throwing codes too, so that probably needs replaced. i paid them for the diagnostic and told them i'm going to sit on this pending $1500 repair. after doing some web research i found out that chrysler vehicles with a tpim problem seems to be common place, yet there has been a small recall for certain vehicles. i am mostly posting this "complaint" to help get a recall issued and to set up a situation where i can get reimbursed, should i go ahead with the fix and a recall is issued

The vehicle has unexpectedly shut off (i.e. gone dead) 30-40 times in the past 9 months. i previously took the vehicle to dodge dealership and they did not find any problem with the ignition. there were no error codes in the vehicle computer. dearlership suggested removing all extra keys/key rings...so did so. when it shuts off, the engine stops running, loss of power steering, loss of power brakes, and im guessing the air bags. although the van predominantly shuts off at low speeds (10-15 mph) shortly after starting the car, it now occurs more frequently at highway speeds (60 mph) and after the car has been running for 2 hours. the shut down has got to be electronic as the engine does not sputter (the engine and all electronics go dead). also we use only the key in the ignition (no key ring or extra key weight) and the key does not move out of the on position. this rolling death trap needs to be recalled and repaired immediately.
