ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
Vehicle thinks it is charging mode when it is not, sitting in a parking lot. Vehicle when attempting to start says 'Service Charging System' and won't go into drive or even neutral appropriately. Vehicle is stranded otherwise. Under 40,000 miles on vehicle. Online this appears to be a very common problem that Chrysler is yet to adequately address with a recall.

BACK OVER PREVENTION: WARNINGS
Potential Consequences:
This vehicle programming includes forward and rear collision warning with both audible and dashboard diagram lights showing which sensors are approaching another object. Unfortunately, in practice, the alarms alert you to something in front or behind you regardless of if you are in gear to move forwards or backwards. This means that everytime you get in gear to leave your parking spot the alarm is dinging because of whatever you pulled up to in your parking spot making drivers have to tune out the audible alarm which is irrelevant and look down at the dash to see where the alerting object is in relation to the vehicle. Reports have been filed with Chrysler but no action has been taken to improve this poor design despite years of it being in effect.

Defect Description:
UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Potential Consequences:
Related to the 03A recall for vehicle for the condition that it will suddenly stall and become inoperable. 03A recall work, which was performed on my vehicle, does not fix the stall condition but only alerts the driver when it is occurring. It does not alert prior as the recall states, there is not time to get to safety once the alert is displayed- the vehicle has already stalled at that time. Since having the 03A recall work performed 1 week ago, my vehicle has stalled an additional 7 times. 5 times in heavy traffic and was not able to get to safety. A sheriff deputy had to help push the vehicle from active traffic off the road. I would like to understand if the underlying condition is still being actively worked with Chrysler and NHTSA for a fix, the recall for the alert has not accomplished creating a safer condition for this vehicle. It may be worth adding while not every owner of a minivan has small children, many do and this is a very upsetting condition to be putting a child in. Certainly if not already it is only a matter of time before this condition causes injury or death if stalling in active traffic. Condition has been inspected by dealership, they have ordered a part but sent me back out on road with the impacted vehicle- which did continue to stall. The warning indications do appear following the recall 03A software update, but I would like to stress that this 'fix' did not provide for additional time to get to safety. The vehicle was already stalled at the same time the message appears.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Potential Consequences:
Vehicle was traveling at approximately 50 miles per hour with no indication of an issue or prior warning. Vehicle suddenly lost power, rolled to a stop, engaged parking brake and displayed "Service Charging System" error. Vehicle was non-operable in the middle of traffic with small children inside the vehicle, presenting significant risk of accident and injury. Vehicle was towed to a dealership and remains inoperable, as confirmed by dealer. Dealer diagnosed need for replacement transmission. Vehicle previously had transmission-related recall, which was serviced. No open recalls are in effect, though public searches and owners' groups identify consistent, recurring fact patterns. Chrysler's Star parts department blocked the dealer's part order and neither Chrysler nor dealer have identified the reason. Vehicle remains inoperable at the dealer with no timeline for part availability or repair, and uncertainty as to whether issue will recur.

Defect Description:
ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
I was driving my child to daycare on my way to work one morning. I pulled into an intersection and my vehicle just stopped as if the engine had died with no warning signs, sounds or even symbols on the dash. I stepped on the gas and couldn’t get it to move all while I had cars coming at me from both sides. I tried turning it on and off nothing would get it to move, eventually the check engine light and another warning came up on the screen saying to service charging system. During all of this I was able to get my child to the side of the road out of harms way incase my vehicle were to be hit and luckily one other driver had noticed what happened and started waving at the oncoming vehicles to come to a stop. We had to have it towed to a dealership were it is currently being looked at and they are still unable to resolve the issue. I am now terrified to drive this car and am very nervous about intersections, this is a very serious problem and am just thankful that others around me were aware and able to help keep my child and myself safe.

It is now at the dealership and after two weeks they are not sure what is wrong. It might be the transmission the signal we get is pull over to safe area the engine will shut off shortly about 5 minute. This occurred on the freeway in West Virginia, a country road in North Carolina and a local road in Ohio. We we were blessed that we were able to pull over but in a very dangerous section on highway. There was a recall that was supposed to take care the issue but didn't. I opened a case with Chrysler and have not been provided a vehicle to use.
