2010 Chrysler Town and Country visibility problems

Filed Apr 22, 2021 · Electrical, Engine · RI

The car randomly shuts off when driving. We have to put it in neutral & restart quickly to avoid an accident. It can be city or highway. Also, when car is off windows randomly open on their own. Moonroof has leaked since we purchased & rear window fluid won't work

Vin# [xxx] ~ a 2010 chrysler (t&c 230k miles) after turning vehicle on or while driving, these things often happen: 1) front windshield wipers come on by themselves.... 2) windows cannot be rolled down at any time while driving or parked 3) dash lights come on (esp, air bag off, RPM, MPH, fuel, etc 4) one cannot open the car doors to let people in unless the vehicle is off (only thennnn you can push the key fab unlock button and let people in....so sad)....

For the last 2-1-2 to 3 years I have been having problems where all of my indicator lights on the dash - they will start flashing on and off, audio alarm (dinging) goes off, speedometer, RPM/temp gages repeatedly goes back and forth from max to min and windshield wipers will come on. At times turing off the ignition will resolve the problem and at others they just stop by themselves. I have also found that I can temporary alleviate these problems for a few weeks to a couple of months by removing the negative terminal off of the battery and pulling the 60 amp main fuse for 30 - 60minutes. Google sites states this problem is due to a bus/grounding problem. I finally took the vehicle into a chrysler shop and was advised that the problem was due to a shorted cable that connected to center monitor of my ves system, which was also bad. The last time I used the ves system was two months ago so this does not logically explain why I have been experiencing the problem for almost 3 years. Also this same cable shorted out causing the monitor to go bad and was replaced approximately 7 years ago by the same dealer who now has the vehicle and the indication at that time was that my ves system was inoperable. As this problem has occurred intermittently while driving it presents a safety problem. I called chrysler's customer complaint department and was advised that the only action that they could take was to call the dealer, advise them that a complaint had been lodged and write up the complaint. Their suggestion was that due to past negative experiences that I have had with this dealership was to take the vehicle to another dealer - no help at all and due to their lack of action an insult to the being called a customer complaint department, bottom line I have a vehicle with serious safety issues which chrysler will not address. Search google for online examples.

It began with the front wipers coming on (as if it was raining) on a sunny day.. And the switch wouldn't shut it off. Have to pull the fuse to get them to stop. Then this progressed into not cranking, as if dead battery. I believe my problem is in the keyless switch.. As the battery is new, and I've had both battery and alternator checked. Both ok!

I purchased this car two years ago with a limited mile warranty. A month later the ignition module went, we are constantly taking the car to have breaks front and back and rotors repaired every month on the vehicle. We were given a false carfax report as well. If that wasn't enough there was a faulty spark plug which cost me 800.00 to remove the head gasket to replace the plugs that were never replaced and had dry rotted. This occurred in july of 2017 after I spent 3k in rental cars to get to and from work. On 8/4/2017 the thermostat blew which cost 200.00 to repair now the catalyct converter is gone and on 8/5/2017 the car was acting possessed. I came outside side to start the vehicle and noticed the windshield wipers were going off and the car smelt as if it were burning. They keys were not in the vehicle. I need help I have a family size of 6 with small children that ride in this unsafe vehicle every day. It is our only means of transportation to and from work and additionally I pay a monthly car payment of $410.00 not including insurance.

Tipm went bad on a vehicle with 75k miles, rendering the windshield wipers and power door locks unuseable. One repair to replace "shorted out" windshield wiper motor was not effective.

All warning lights on dash board light up while driving. Wipers come on(won't shut off), if cruise control is on gears won't change. Happens on city street and highway. Purchased in 2014 has been checked 3 times. Temporary fix 2 times. Third time I was told the best guess would cost $1,000.00. Emphasized that this is a guess. When I stop the vehicle and take the key out and put it back in and restart the car it helps.
