Transmission pump failed while driving the vehicle causing me and my handicapped daughter to be stuck on highway. Was able to get vehicle off the road. Vehicle started to make a whining sound then when i had to stop for road construction it started to jerk forward while i was stopped with my foot in the brake. Then when i went to accelerate i had no power to move forward. Rpms would go to 4000 but vehicle would barely move. Once i was able to safely get off highway i had to call for a ride home. I hate to think if this would of happened while i was actually driving the vehicle on the busy highway and not stopped for road construction what might of happened to me and my daughter if someone would of rear ended us while my vehicle stopped moving in fast traffic! Got home and i searched for any recalls for my type of vehicle and i seen there was a recall for this problem and the recall number was s44. But when i put my vin number in it says my vehicle wasn’t covered for this recall. Well obviously it should be covered because of the faulty transmission pump stranding me on the highway. This recall should be extended to more vehicles like mine. I have called chrysler and i am awaiting any info from them wether they are going to pay for this. The vehicle is a 2015 but only has 56000 miles on it! No way this part should fail with that amount of low miles on it. It should be covered under the recall s44! Please let me know what i can do about this if they fail to cover me under this recall. While i’m only assuming this is the problem with the vehicle due to recalls being issued for it i will be taking it to a garage to be fixed but would like to be reimbursed if this is the problem with my vehicle! Obviously the recall should of been extended to cover more vehicles than what it did. Once i have proper confirmation for the problem i will be refilling a complaint with all paper work to prove my claim if chrysler doesn’t pay to fix this!

The contact owns a 2015 dodge grand caravan. The contact stated that the rear passenger’s side sliding door would not unlock when the contact attempted to unlock and open the door. The vehicle also made an abnormal sound while the contact attempted to lock or unlock the doors. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The dealer and manufacturer were not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 126,447.

Light came on (not flashing) took to auto zone for a diagnostic which the ase certified technician said the error code was po301 cylinder 1 misfire was detected and it was the #1 spark plug and it needed new one. However the spark plugs are not scheduled for maintenance until 100 k miles and my van is just over 60 k and i had my dealership do the 60k maintenance in march but didn’t include the spark plugs. We had a mechanic from out of town look at it per our dealership as we were out of town. He reset the code on 6-1-2021and it came back on after 7 days for two weeks it went off and came back on again on 6-11 and went off on the 14th. Today is the 15th of june, 2021.

Rear passenger sliding door actuator failed. This is a common problem with these vehicles and poses an extremely dangerous safety risk when an owner is unable to open/close the door and when the door opens on its own due to failed lock actuator. This poses a risk for fire safety, wreckage safety to exit vehicle and poses significant risk to person's riding in the seat while the door can open spontaneously. There is also a risk factor because the door cannot lock or unlock (depending on which position the door gets stuck in when the part fails). Thousands of owners of these specific vehicles are asking for a recall for safety reasons.

Was exiting school parking lot and the headrest like exploded!

While driving and stopped at a stop light the vehicle starting shaking and would no longer engage in drive. No previous warning signs or issues with vehicle slipping gears. Stuck in the middle of street with 4 children. Diagnosed with faulty hydraulic pressure pump and transmission current recall s44 on same issue for same make, model, year and manufacturing date.

I was driving up a hill on a bridge and all of a sudden i loss power to my wheels of the van. I was almost rear ended by 3 different cars because i could not drive any further. I was left stranded in the middle of a bridge. I got the vehicle towed to a mechanic and the diagnosis was that the transmission pump inside the transmission had gone out. I was told that my exact year and vehicle fit a transmission pump recall for the exact issue. After calling chrysler's recall hotline, they did a search of my vin and sad that my vin number did not match for a transmission recall. And they told me there's nothing they could do about it. After researching online i have found that the 2015 dodge caravan did have recalls for the transmission pump in 2016.The recall centre told me that it was vin number specific on the recall and that mine was not going to be covered.

Front passenger active headrest system deployed with no explanation. The vehicle was being driven normally in a parking lot and the headrest just went off.
