ABS light or ABS activating by model year
What owners say
While driving on the interstate when I lifted my foot off of the gas pedal it started to jerk on me, the check engine light stays on and the ABS light will stay on, it also stalls at randum anytime while driving, every 2 to 3 years I have to have the brakes and the rotors redone, I had the camshaft sensor replaced and was told that they found metal fragments on the sensor I even saw it and was told that that usually tells them that this is a timing problem and could be the problem for stalling and if that doesn't work then it will be the engine, the timing problem will cost around $2000 along with the cost of the engine if its not the timing,then there is a evaporator core problem that is costly, there is a manifold gasket leak also another $1000,I've always done the service repairs but this is all to costly hate to dump it but now I'm thinking of a different vehicle and not another town n country, will never buy again
On 6/11/19 I took my van to have a oil change and tires rotated. About 30 minutes later my van dinged and the brake light, ABS light, traction lights came on and the speedometer quit working. I took it back to the garage and told them what happened. It was there that I found out the electric doors did not work. They said they hadn't done anything that would cause that. They sent me to a garage behind them. They could find anything on their machine. Reset the lights and I left. Within a few feet the lights came back on and the speedometer quit. I took it to my mechanic. He could not find the problem. The speedometer and the electric doors did start working again. He sent me to ramey's chrysler princeton wv. On 6/17/19 they said it was a right rear wheel sensor. My mechanic put it on but it didn't fix the problem. He sent me back to ramey's. On 7/10/19 they said I needed the right front wheel sensor. That didn't fix the problem. I had the wheel bearings checked but they were alright. I took my van back on 7/24/19 1:00pm per my mechanic request to check the tipm module and to call him so he could talk to someone up there. They said that it might not be that and I needed to leave the van there so they could do an in-depth analysis. I have not heard from them and they have not called my mechanic. I even ask on fb if anyone would know what the problem was. Most said that they could not find a solution so they just drive it the way it is. I need my cruise control due to my back and legs. I think this is a safety issue and someone needs to find out what is going on. I have paid over $300 and still don't know what the problem is. Thank you.
I have major electrical issues with my van that involves several components including my airbags. While driving down the road the wipers operate uncontrolably several warning lights come on including the airbag light. The blind spot indicators and park assist and traction control ABS is all unavailable at the time of it acting up. I have taken it to several dealerships all chrysler and none of them can diagnose the issue. The vehicle acts up no matter what it is doing whether it is driving down the road or stationary. This problem has been going on since it had 41,000 miles on it and sisnce I purchased it used with 41,000 miles on it. I have talked with chrysler headquarters and they will not respond to me by email or phone call at this time. They initially talked to me and said they would be of no financial assistance to me because the factory warranty is up, and not they will not respond to my calls or emails.
I was driving my family home from vacation in florida and while we were on the interstate in new york my town and country lost all power, almost causing an accident. The red battery light along with ABS, traction control and engine light all came on and the vehicle would go any faster than 20 mile per hour.I was able to get off an exit and found a near by advanced auto and had the battery and alternator tested. Both tests came back ok. Started back for home and while driving again the car experienced the same issue.
The. Car had electrical failure started with the left frontbturn signal. Next mynradio would shut down and restart on its own. Then the radio shut down and I has to restart it. Next the dashboard would light up the ABS system or engine light and then cut them off. Next it shut completely down while I was parked. It was cold that say and a boost started it up. Next it shut down whlle I was driving a car full of children home from school. It lit up each warning light and shut down. It would not start with a jump. I had the battery and alternator checked by a specialist who approved both. Now after owning this van after 9 months im ready to send it back. I should also mention that the right passenger door will refuse to open by switch.
Vehicle is 3 years old however we purchased it 1 year ago. We have had electrical issues multiple times since purchase. Dash lights will illuminate which include, electrical light, batter light, gas light, check engine light, tc light, and ABS light as well as wipers will run even though wipers are off. Dealer wants to hook us for $1000 repair.
