2015 Dodge Grand Caravan problems

“Good Morning There is a transmission failure - there is no fluid pressure in the transmission lines and the pump seems inoperable. There is already a recall on this issue but the vehicle I have does not fall within the guidelines - less than a year. Recall S44 - is for July 31, 2015 to April 18, 2016. But my vehicle was built on October 15, 2014 and is listed as a 2015 model. All information has been confirmed through the local Dodge dealership, a mechanic, and also through Mopar. I am requesting that the VIN to this vehicle also be added into the recall.”

The contact was concerned that the other air bags in the vehicle might unexpectedly deploy and injure the contact or other occupants seated inside the vehicle. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure via telephone. The failure mileage was approximately 111,000.”

“The passenger side sliding door is locked into place the power actuator has gone out. An entry way is locked putting people in danger, one way in one way out for 5 rear passengers. Multiple model years have a reoccurring issue.The failure of the sliding door lock actuator is so common that it prompted thousands of owner complaints to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). While it never led to a formal safety recall, NHTSA did open a preliminary evaluation (PE21-016) In response, Chrysler (FCA/Stellantis) issued several Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs), including TSB 23-017-20 and TSB 23-001-25, instructing dealers to replace the faulty actuator rather than the entire latch assembly. No warning signs of failure dealership is saying my vin doesn't count but I'm within 15 years of vehicles service and under 150000 miles.”

“The 3.6L Pentastar engine for this year has been shown to be highly problematic. We have had the #2 and now the #1 cylinder heads fail, causing misfires, poor engine performance and complete failure. We’ve also had multiple injectors fail, #2 (twice), 4 & 5. The engine failure is a safety issue and has been proven as such.”

“While driving a vehicle in front of me turned in front of another vehicle which pushed that car sideways and there was no way to stop so my front end hit the back end of their vehicle totalling my van.”

“Cracking front windshield (temporarily fixed by clear tape), broken window regulator motors on both passenger and driver sides stop lifting the glasses up and down, passenger side plastic window part (vertically snapped on the upper part of passenger door) fell off, engine light sometimes on and off with unknown detected problems.”
