My van occasionally will not start. i replaced the battery and soon after began having problems with the van failing to start. then i noticed that the passenger airbag dashboard cover was open. also, the passenger rear sliding door does not latch properly. i have tried using both the remote key lock and manually pressing the button to close the door. it takes several attempts to get it to close and lock. *tr

Airbags: i've never received a recall notice on the airbags. should i have? rear quarter vent window switch: i have taken my van to 1st cochran automotive in natrona heights, pa. they did not have the part to replace the faulty one, so they disconnected the rear window switch. i have received several recall notices on this part since, but 1st cochran never has the part needed in stock. i would like to have this fixed. they cannot tell me when the part will come in, and they will not call me when it comes in, can you help me? i would like to go on record that dodge is not providing its dealers enough parts to fix the recall problem, and there seems to be nothing we can do to correct this. *tr

My husband was driving our family home and some one lost control of their vehicle and our caravan hit them head on. the whole front of van was affected and it was deemed a total loss. none of airbags deployed and the passenger rear bucket seat belt failed and my 5 year-old's carseat flew into the passenger seat and console. his neck and leg were injured and he was taken to local er by ambulance. i was the passenger and my neck has been severely injured. i feel if the airbags deployed my neck may not be as bad. i was horrified when i saw my sons carseat not in the seat. this van obviously has safety issues. *tr

On 3/29/2013 my daughter and her fiance were using my van, fiance was the driver. he hit a 200+lb rock that was partially in the road. this sent him off the road where he hit a partially buried rock wall from the 1600's, this sent them airborne scraping some trees along the way. they landed about 20 feet away, nose down into another section of rock wall, also buried. this launched them further up the embankment causing it to be lodged on a stump. there was over 8,000 in damage, the front bumper was all messed up. the airbags did not deploy. only one seatbelt locked causing injury to my daughter when her face slammed off of the top glove box, not once, but twice. i have serious concerns about the safety of the vehicle. i have small grandchildren that ride in my van on a regular basis. i have voiced my concerns to my insurance claim rep, the adjuster, the body shop, my dealership and dodge itself. all i'm looking for is a straight answer on why this happened. if the airbags shouldn't have deployed because of the type of accident, ok, tell me why, but that seatbelt failure, that's a major deal. i cannot accept it's a fluke, or could be, or i don't know. this is my family. i love my van but with no one willing to help me get answers i just don't want it. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2010 dodge grand caravan. while driving various speeds, the ignition switch turned off without warning. the contact lost power to the brakes and steering wheel and had to shift into neutral to restart the vehicle. the contact stated that the failure occurred on several different occasions over the years. the contact took the vehicle several times to butler chrysler dodge jeep (1555 salem rd, beaufort, sc 29902 (843) 474-0026), but the failures could not be duplicated or diagnosed. recently, the contact spoke to an independent mechanic who stated that they would need to keep the vehicle overnight to complete diagnostic testing and attempt to duplicate the failure. prior to this, the failure recurred. the vehicle was towed to butler chrysler dodge jeep, but the diagnosis was unknown. the contact's insurance company informed her about nhtsa campaign numbers: 11v139000 (electrical system) and 14v373000 (electrical system, air bags); however, the vin was excluded. the contact tried contacting the manufacturer four times by leaving voice messages, but had not received a response. the failure mileage was approximately 40,000.

2010 dodge grand caravan with one passenger (driver) was hit by a driver running a red light at ~ 50mph. the collision occured at the front right (passenger) side of the grand caravan. the collision was severe and the van was totaled out as a result of this accident. although the accident was a side impact none of the side airbags deployed, only the front air bags deployed. the driver of the van suffered head injuries due to contact with the side window of the van during the crash. *tr

I was driving on the highway at 60 mph, hit a large (approx 6 feet x 4 feet x 4 feet) wooden shipping crate. the crate exploded, and a board became lodged in the tire well and engine compartment. i also lost power the vehicle - the wrecker driver advised that the board appeared to have disconnected the computer wires. the crate hit on the front driver fender. the airbags did not deploy. i would think hitting something the size of the front end of a car at 60 mph should set off the air bags. *tr

Major front end crash air bag did deploy? $12,900 damage. my son was diving. on 2/6/2013 another front end crash $10,500 damage air bag did not deploy. i was diving, now i am concern. sent a e-mail complaint to dodge? very general response to my complaint, i could see their were not concerned. is this a major problem for the dodge grand caravan. i have no faith in this vehicle anymore. when i get the van back, i will trade-in for better safer van. *tr
