2016 Chrysler Town and Country electrical problems

Filed Aug 15, 2026 · Electrical · ND

I have this vehicle and the drivers side sliding door has locked up completely. I will not unlock or open manually or electrically. I had it in for a diagnostic at a certified body shop in Devils Lake, ND 58301. They say it is the locking mechanism or actuator. I have recently been informed that Chrysler has extended the warranty for thi part to 15 years or 150K. But my vehicle does not show up as having a recall for this. The bulletin number I am referring to is 23-036-21. It covers 2015 and 2016 town and countrys mine is a 2016. How do I get this covered

1st Vehicle was driving heavy so I got it checked and the transmission had to be replaced, this was in July?? 2024. The vehicle was still driving heavy 2nd was the traction light(s) VSR?? light turned on 3rd The check engine light came on and gave a P0420 Code. The right catalytic converter was replaced in March 2025 4th The same day I went to repare the Catalytic Converter (before replacement), the Blind Spot System warning came on along with 1. My windshield wipers turning on and off by themselves, 2. rpm went down to 0, 3. the low fuel sign came on even though I just fueled up AND the needle dropped to E, 4. the MPH also went down to 0, 5. the tire detection came on + the light, 6. the ABS light came on, 7. the traction lights came, 8. Heating/A/C system dropped to a lower pressure and then regained pressure, 9. there is a skip when accelerating, 10. won't properly read mileages used11. I lose control of my turn signals, lights, wipers AND hazard light as well as the powered windows Everything turned off and I gained control again Then it started again I turned the vehicle off but the lights kept turning on and off and I kept gaining control then losing it ALL of this occurs while I am driving, at a stop, or just turning on the vehicle Yes this possesses an issue for my and the safety of others No and Yes about the confirmed issues with a certified dealership No because I am scheduled for an appointment with a Chrysler dealer tomorrow (Mar.20th,2025) Yes because I have gone to other dealers and they cannot figure out what the main issue is No the issue has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance rep., etc. Yes and No to other warnings I knew someone was off because when I turn the key to the run position right before I turn the vehicle on, the check engine light stays on If I leave it in that position until all the other lights turn off, the check engine light remains on When I turn the vehicle completely on, the check engine light disappears

The wire under the passenger side that controls the cruise control and abs system snapped suddenly. There was no impact or accident it just detached itself on the highway

The drivers side passenger door sealed shut and won’t open. Can’t open with the button or manually, it was completely stuck shut Which is a massive issue if I were in a wreck and hit from the other side as I have four kids who ride in my vehicle daily

I received a letter from Chrysler regarding TSB #23-017-20 regarding the rear sliding doors unable to be opened either electrically or manually a few years ago. Recently the cars left/rear door wouldn't work. Unable to open it at all. It's a 2016 Town and Country with 147,421 miles on it. Well within the TSB requirements. I called a local Chrysler dealer. They told me if they decided the cars problem wasn't part of the recall they would charge me $250.00 for diagnostics. It clearly is related since it has the same symptoms. Sounds like their way of avoiding the repairs since Chrysler will only reimburse the dealer for 1.2 hrs when actually repair time is past 3 hours. I then called 1‑800‑247‑9753 the number on Chrysler's service bulletin they mailed me. After a 30 minute conversation were they told me the car didn't qualify. I convinced them it did when I referred the letter they sent me. They said to contact a dealer which I told them I had. I explained their response and they said they would put a complaint regarding the dealer and there was nothing else they could do. I called another local dealer and they never bothered to call me back. I called a local car repair place since the letter says they would reimburse someone else if the repair is done somewhere else. They refused to sell the place the part to them. I entered my vin number on Chrysler's web site that they provide to reimburse customers. The vin number came back as not qualifying for the service bulletin. These are their ways to avoid servicing these cars under the Service Bulletin. I have proof the car is within the mileage limit and at this time it still is. I had to replace the part myself. My wife needed the car and couldn't wait for Chrysler. There are many places online were people with the same problem were denied the repair even though they did qualify. Thanks

Passenger side sliding door makes noise and won't open remotely or manually. When it does open it will close on its own sometimes making it dangerous when loading my children.

Spark plugs and motor/transmission mount fixed but car started shutting off when I would come to a stop. Took it back to dealership and they stated the TCC failed and was replaced, started messing up again a week later. Wouldn’t start , I had the battery and alternator checked and both are good. It is currently back in the shop.
