   Transmission completely failed and had to be risky rebuilt. I was just driving down the highway and the transmission went into limp mode and I came to a fast slow down as it dropped the gearing. Also have noticed a huge issue with electronics putting me into a limp mode with wipers on headlights wont shut off, lose dash lights and speedometer with no blinkers or hazard lights.

   Passenger rear sliding door on my 2015 Chrysler Town and Country will not unlock with the remote. This happens all the time and has become a great concern as it causes not only frustration for me but has caused stress for my grand children thinking they are stuck in the vehicle! This also causes my wife to have to open the passenger front door and reach between the seat and the "B" post to reach the lock and unlock the door. Then at this time the door must be opened manually…

   Several times over the past few weeks the van has just shut off while driving. This has happened at low speeds and at city driving speeds. The engine just completely shuts off and the van loses power brakes/steering/acceleration with no warning, no rough running, no sounds, and no check engine light. The mechanic cannot find anything wrong with it but the problem continues at random intervals. This is potentially very dangerous and even worse is that there is no evident…

Mechanic has looked at and repaired the car 3 different times and there is nothing identifiably wrong. The car is now unsafe to…

    The sliding electrical/mechanical passenger door does not close entirely and continually retries to re-close. I observe over the years that there must be a sensor or other mechanical/electrical detection of door "closure" that is not working correctly off and on for a least 4 years. The action we've taken to is to manually force the door closed as the electrical-mechanical closure detection cannot always sense door closure correctly. Occasionally the condition can occur…
