While driving my car it stopped all of a sudden leaving the car behind to slide out of control so not to hit me. A light came on. when I read the code it said vehicle ignition switch. This also happened a year ago only the car didn’t stop it slowed down to 5 miles an hour. I did repair it a year ago only for it to happen again. This is a very serious thing as I had my grand babies with me and the car behind me had three children.

Electrical SystemSep 2025 · ODI 11687941Details +

while driving my kids to school going on a curve about 15 mph, the car shutdown and loss control of power steering and the braking. Findings upon inspection and diagnostics review, it was determined that the Wireless Ignition Node (WIN) Module is faulty. This component is critical to vehicle ignition and operation. The failure of the WIN module causes the engine to complete shut down while the vehicle was in motion on the highway. The shutdown resulted in an immediate loss of power steering and power breaking functions, leaving the driver with severely reduced control of the vehicle. Such a malfunction poses a significant safety hazard, as the driver is unable to maintain proper handling or safely maneuver the vehicle during operation. The WIN Module has fail and must be replace immediately. Continued operation without repair could result in repeated engine shutdowns, increasing the risk of a crash or serious injury. Need replace the WIN Module with an OEM or certified equivalent part. Reprogram/ reinitialize the module as per manufacturer specifications. Test drive post-repair to ensure reliability and safety.

I have a 2010 Chrysler Town & Country (Sport Van) that has broken down and will not start. At first we thought it was the battery and then the starter. after replacing both parts that could cause for the van to not start. The problem still wasn't fix. We then had an car service center run a diagnostic check to pin point the issue. The diagnostic code shown Number (p0513). This code described the symptoms the van is having, but not while driving. After learning about the diagnostic code we learned that there was a recall. The summary of the recall is as follow: "Chrysler is recalling certain model year 2010 Dodge Journey, Grand Caravan, and Chrysler Town & Country vehicles manufacturer from August 3, 2009. through June 17, 2010. Some vehicles may experience inadvertent ignition key displacement from the run to accessory position while driving causing the engine to shut off". After reading about the issues with this recall, I immediately contacted 2 separate Chrysler dealerships about the recall and the issue I am having with my 2010 Chrysler Town & Country. Both dealerships told me the same thing, that my van wasn't covered under the recall. I was confused as to why and wanted more answers. I did have the pleasure with speaking to service person by the name given "Ash" at the Chrysler dealership at Whitten Brothers Chrysler Jeep, Midlothian, VA. Who then directed me to contact FCA Chrysler Service Corporation. After contacting Chrysler Corporation I had the pleasure with speaking with (Mina) a customer service representative, which further explained how recalls work. After explaining what happen with my van and the symptoms with no starting and the diagnostic coding shown to why. Mina, recommended that I should contact you guy to look further into my case in hope to grant us a recall and service to our 2010 Chrysler Town & Country that is showing and giving us the same effects listed in Chrysler recall for this year, make, and model. Please consider helping

While driving my van would shut off. It would always crank again. This began happening in 2018. No warning lamps or indicators went off. The van just died. I could not tie it to any particular road conditions. I eventually quit driving the van because I realized it to be unsafe. I could not jeopardize the lives of others or my grandchildren.The local Chrysler dealer could not diagnose a problem so they could fix nothing. The same scenario happened with a local mechanic. I recently took it to different mechanics who explored the ignition switch as an issue.

The end of the tire stem broke off when I was refilling the tires. This prevented the tires from staying filled and I was nervous about driving the vehicle until I could get it to a shop to be repaired. We replaced all the stems, but replacing the sensors was too expensive. If this damage had occurred while driving, a sudden flat tire could have been very dangerous. Never thought to take pictures for a report until after we had already replaced the valves.

The key was lost, so I had a locksmith replace it. Later in the next week, my husband had another key made, and I drove it for about a week, then when I was driving on an interstate at 65mph everything quit, including the power steering. I was lucky to get it pulled over to the side of the road. I took it to my mechanic, who thought it might be the computer b/c several different problems came up on the diagnostics. They could not fix it, so I had it towed to a bigger automotive place, who replaced an engine oil pressure switch but it still would not start or run so they suggested sending it to Chrysler. now I'm having it towed to Tri Lakes Chrysler in Branson MO who says they don't know if they can fix it.

Greetings, June 30, 2023 incident of our van stalling and shutting off while driving. The traction control warning light comes on, van automatically slows down and shuts off. When this happened, unable to steer, no control of brakes or accelerator along with being dangerous. Took vehicle into Midas as they are closest to my work. After testing they determined it was the WIN Module. Since June 30th 2023 to September 10th 2023 this issue happened over a dozen times. Luckily, no one was ever directly behind us and we were able to pull over safely, shut van off, wait one minute and start up again then was fine. The issue always happened while traveling under 30 MPH. I am so grateful we, nor anyone else was injured. Midas informed me back early August 2023 that there was a recall on this exact same module, but recall didn't include our van. I spoke with Russ Darrow Dodge and let them know about our issue and got vehicle in and WIN module replaced on September 12, 2023.

We have been fortunate that no cars have been following close behind, so we have been able to pull the van off the side of the road, stop and re-start the van.

My A/C Compressor Unit froze up. Tearing my Serpentine Belt. Causing my engine to not run at all. My Driver side window Switch wiring melted. So now my window does not function at all. My vehicle doesn't go over 40mph and no longer shifts properly. Most of my engine wiring has melted. I have replaced the MAP Sensor, but it says there is a problem with the circuit. Also says a problem with the Barometric sensor, which I have yet to find. I had to replace the water pump. My cooling fan has totally stopped working. My key sticks in the ignition. I have replaced the battery and starter. I have also replaced the ignition coil pack, Spark plugs and wires. I thought this may be the reason it was having issues starting, but it still continues. My vehicle will studder or stall out while driving. Causing it to lose power, steering. Sometimes the van just doesn't start. Or it will seem like it wants to start, but it doesn't "fire." Sounding like a starter issue, but the starter has already been replaced

SteeringMay 2023 · ODI 11522113Details +

At random times, the ignition will shut down while driving, causing the power steering and power brakes to lose function. The only way to correct this is to shift gear into neutral and restart the engine. This has occurred while driving in town and on the highway without any warning or warning lights on the dashboard. This could result in a crash and harm to passengers due to not having control over steering and brakes while the vehicle is in motion. This problem has occurred multiple times in the past year or so. The vehicle was taken to a mechanic who ran a diagnostic, but was unable to identify the issue and it would not replicate. I researched the vehicle symptoms, and found a recall from 2015 that related to the same issues (TSB# R03, WIN Modual FOBIK replacement). All additional keys and keychain/FOB were removed from the ignition key to see if this would help. Since the issue was still happening, it was then taken to a Chrysler dealership, where again the diagnostics did not reveal the issue and they were unable to replicate the problem. Multiple attempts made to discuss this issue with Chrysler without any assistance in finding a solution thus far. This vehicle is normally driven daily as a family car and regularly transports children. This is a huge safety concern and issue that needs to be addressed and fixed, as the vehicle is unsafe to drive at this point and the potential liability is great.

Electrical SystemApr 2023 · ODI 11515757Details +

My 2010 Chrysler Town and Country has been showing signs of an electrical issue since I purchased it. It first started with the windshield wipers and the radio coming on and off by itself. As time went on, the vehicle would lose power as I was driving. When I attempted to accelerate, the engine would rev up but the van would continue to lose speed. It continued this way for a while, until eventually it started shutting down. I have to try to get the van on the side of the road before it shuts off and restart it. Most of the time, it will restart and drive like normal. However, it wouldn't restart and had to be taken to a mechanic. At this point, the doors on the van will open and close automatically; including the tailgate. I have kids and I'm worried that the doors will open while I'm driving on the highway. Even worst, I have been in several situations where the car has stalled or shut off without the person behind me knowing I'm having an issue. This has happened in traffic within city limits, and also on the busy highway. This could have led to an accident. Again, I have children and this is very unsafe. Additionally, I've already been through one vehicular electrical fire where I could have died. This is unsafe. The issue is with the control computer (I believe it may be called the ECM); which is located somewhere above the driver's side front tire. I've spent thousands of dollars since purchasing the van in 2016 trying to figure out this issue.

Vehicle shot off while driving at approximately 25 mph to 30 mph twice during a round trip. No control of the vehicle. Pulled over and put vehicle into park and restarted the vehicle. Very concerning. There is a safety recall on 2010 Chrysler Town and Country for this serious problem but not for this VIN number. Why not? If this happened at a higher speed or with traffic present the outcome and consequence could be significant. Please advise.

My wife had a collision with another vehicle. She rear ended a pick up truck. The airbags deployed sending a retainer from the driver side airbag into her cheek. The piece was embedded in her cheek from Dec 27 2022 until Jan 17 2023. She saw two doctors about the issue they thought she had a bump from the airbag deploying and a small cut. No one thought twice about it. On Jan 17 2023 she went to prompt care and told them she thinks there was something embedded they agreed and told her to contact a surgeon. The referral was placed for a surgeon however on the evening of Jan 17 2023 she scratched the scab and then the scab fell off and the little snap like retainer fell out.

The van's ignition switch intermittently won't fully go into the off position so I can fully turn off the car and lock the doors. Sometimes the key fob pops out when I'm driving. Sometimes I am unable to remove the key from the ignition switch and unable to turn off the engine normally. Upon getting the part number off the ignition switch and searching for a replacement to purchase, I discovered other owners experienced the same problems and a recall was done. I contacted the dealer and was shock to find out my van is not being acknowledged in the recall despite my issues experienced and articles published indicating the year, make and model of my van and a recall specific to my issue.

Not sure what the actual problem is - the car has been stalling using occuring when first using the vehicle in the morning, leaving the driveway on a small side street, or at a stop or signal sign. It starts with the light saying the car is driving irregular, then other lights come on and may go back on - then at a light will go on and stop completely. I found that others are having the same problems when you are going under 30 mph. I have replaced the battery, the TIPM, broke switch, reprogramed the power control module, ignition switch. Receiver 08035031, transmtr 08059057,sensor cr 08037155. Also Checked the engine and all codes. The worst problem beside the fact it stalls in the middle of the road is that I had trouble getting it smoged. Lastly on one occasion it started doing funny things and I went on to the freeway, so at 55mph the speedometer went crazy up and down no consistent with my speed and then when I was pulling into the parking lot it stalled completely. Also once it stalled and all the electrical also went out , no emergency blinkers, no window opening, no radio. I have spent more than $3,000 with the dealer and no relief, It is almost happening every time I go out were before it was only occasional. The exact date is unknown but it is more than 2 years.

The lock on the driver side rear door, sliding door, keeps making a loud buzzing noise every time it locks and unlocks. I believe it might be the lock actuator. The door locks and unlocks fine but the buzzing noise is extremely loud. There are no warning lights and it has not been looked at by a mechanic.
