2006 Chrysler Town and Country body complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 19 of 19, newest first, as owners wrote them.
After stopping in my garage, I used the remote to unlock and open the rear driver side power sliding door. The door began to open, and I reached in to pick up my bag. The door caught suddenly and started to close quickly. I reached up with my right arm to stop the door from closing on me, which it did. I then tried to back out of the car in case the door suddenly closed again. The door caught again, this time slamming into my right cheek and causing a concussion. 10 days later, and I am still recovering. I don't know what to do to correct the problem, but I don't want others to face the same possibility of injury.

Right rear power door fails to open from rear push button, later in time, door lock failed to open when unlocking doors, also door won't lock on auto., or when driving as the rest of the doors. Very dangerous, my grandchildren ride quite regularly and afraid door may malfunction. Also when turn left at times theirs a grinding noise coming from the front of the car.
2006 chrysler town and country has water leaks coming from the factory installed sun roof. Consumer states that the vehicle has been repaired several times but it still leaks. *nj the rack and pinion failed and the part was out of stock for 6 weeks. The transmission oil pump leaked all over the driveway.
The automatic sliding doors the sensors do not do their job!! We questioned this with the salesman upon purchase and we were reassured they work fine then we asked about it after purchase while in for other repairs still reassured they work fine cause "if it doesn't do it while it is here then there isn't anything wrong with it". (that is what the tech's always say when they don't have an answer) we had the worst run in with the electronic doors this morning 6/19/2008! Drivers side. I a grown 115 pound 5foot 4 woman was pinned hip to hip my right knee was resting on the floor board facing in the car . While I pushed back to get free the door only made the noises of it trying to open ddd ddd ddd it did not for at least a minute that is a long time to have that continually adding more pressure while the door tried to force itself closed on me as an adult thank god it was not one of my smaller children. I am positive that would have caused extreme injuries on one of them or any child. Im surprised it didn't injure me worse. I was sure the latch had punctured my thigh fortunately it had not. I was left with a good size probably 1 1/2 - 2 in hard lump and a wonderfully colorful bruise and lots of soreness not only to the touch but walking and putting my weight down on my right leg.
My 2 year old son pushed the button to close the hatch on our 2006 town and country mini-van and my husband was packing the car and was under the hatch and he thought is was going to bounce back up like it has in the past and it did not. The back hatch kept closing down on him he thought it was going to pin him in so he put his arm over his head to try and stop the hatch from pushing down on him and only when he pushed up so hard that is snapped the arm off the back hatch did it stop and bounce back up. Also my husbands wrist and arm were swollen from the hatch pushing down on him. That could have been by two year son under there and it could of killed a small child or person. My husband stated he barely was able to push the hatch up.
