NHTSA complaint: 2008 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY — UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I HAVE HAD SEVERAL PROBLEMS WITH THE 2008 CHRYSLER MINIVAN. ELECTRICAL, ENGINE, IGNITION, ETC. I EVEN HAD THE ONE DOOR NOT HAVE THE SENSOR GO OFF AND PINCH MY ONE TWINS LEG INTO THE DOOR! OVER THE YEARS, THE IGNITION SWITCH POPS OVER AND STOPS THE CAR COMPLETELY WHILE DRIVING AT INTERMITTENT TIMES. I COULD BE GOING 20 MILES AN HOUR OR ON THE HIGHWAY DRIVING AT A HIGHER RATE OF SPEED. THE WHOLE VAN SHUTS DOWN SO IF YOU ARE ON THE HIGHWAY, YOU CAN BARELY STEER TO GET OVER (AND THANKFULLY I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DO SO). I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE IN JUNE. IT IS NOVEMBER AND MY VAN STILL ISN'T FIXED. THE DEALERSHIP AND CHRYSLER KNOW THAT I AM HAVING THE ISSUE AND HAVE HAD IT. I HAVE CALLED AND VOICED MY COMPLAINTS. I AM "NUMBER 5" IN LINE TO GET THE PART! SO, WHAT WILL CHRYSLER DO WHEN I GET REAR ENDED OR INJURED WHEN MY VEHICLE FAILS TO OPERATE. THE VAN SHUTS OFF AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK WHILE I AM DRIVING IT. IF I DIDN'T HAVE FULL, LIFETIME WARRANTY, THIS VAN WOULD HAVE BEEN TRADED IN THE YEAR AFTER I PURCHASED IT. IT HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS SINCE I HAVE OWNED IT. CHRYSLER IS NOT DOING ITS JOB TO KEEP PEOPLE SAFE. THEY HAVE NOT TAKEN MY ISSUE SERIOUSLY AND BRUSH IT OFF AS NOT A BIG DEAL. I HAVE A VAN BECAUSE I HAVE KIDS. I WOULD THINK THAT SAFETY WOULD BE OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE BUT IT FALLS ON DEAF EARS. *TR
