Defect investigations
Engine Stall After Refueling
This defect petition evaluates July 7, 2014 allegations from an owner of a model year (MY) 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan minivan that engine stall occurs in these vehicles without warning after refueling.The petitioner's vehicle is a Chrysler RS platform minivan.The RS platform includes MY 2003 through 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan, Dodge Caravan, Chrysler Town and Country and Chrysler Voyager minivans.the federal safety agency evaluated the petition by analyzing consumer complaints submitted to the Agency, analyzing field data, reviewing technical information provided in Chrysler's response to an Agency information request and testing an RS minivan identified by its owner as experiencing post-refuel engine stalls.After completing this evaluation, the federal safety agency has concluded that further investigation is unlikely to result in a finding that a defect related to motor vehicle safety exists.The stalls occurring in these vehicles only occur immediately after filling up the fuel tank and happen at low engine speeds. The failure rate is low, even after 8 to 13 years of the vehicles being in service, and there are no reports of crashes or injuries resulting from the stall condition.In the Agency's view, additional investigation is unlikely to result in finding the existence of a safety-related defect in the subject vehicles.Given the need to allocate and prioritize the federal safety agency's limited resources to best accomplish the Agency's safety mission, the petition is denied.This action does not constitute a finding by the federal safety agency that a safety-related defect does not exist. The Agency will take further action if warranted by future circumstances. More details concerning our review can be found in the Federal Register Notice for this action.The following 161 VOQs are included in the petition evaluation: 10209242, 10229468, 10240708, 10260923, 10275939, 10276532, 10296487, 10298175, 10328669, 10330144, 10346517, 10349789, 10354758, 10363689, 10372112, 10372368, 10372514, 10378031, 10379764, 10382938, 10387448, 10394063, 10398877, 10413918, 10418652, 10420924, 10427063, 10437525, 10445392, 10446902, 10470028, 10471249, 10473733, 10502231, 10503114, 10504260, 10509862, 10511988, 10512120, 10512385, 10512650, 10513147, 10538154, 10549841, 10551763, 10555188, 10555418, 10556754, 10565367, 10574012, 10574398, 10586555, 10587212, 10587559, 10593433, 10607841, 10607913, 10608922, 10615810, 10622468, 10628141, 10632112, 10632128, 10632172, 10632175, 10632231, 10632262, 10632266, 10632270, 10632305, 10632316, 10632326, 10632370, 10632385, 10632399, 10632492, 10632542, 10632765, 10632833, 10632928, 10633197, 10633281, 10633409, 10633421, 10633483, 10633507, 10637752, 10637804, 10637950, 10637975, 10638032, 10638289, 10638290, 10638401, 10638968, 10639218, 10639623, 10641157, 10641603, 10641614, 10641836, 10644339, 10644705, 10649713, 10649895, 10649932, 10650313, 10652590, 10653147, 10653783, 10654533, 10655226, 10658900, 10659679, 10660320, 10662588, 10662645, 10662662, 10663473, 10667056, 10667437, 10668081, 10668094, 10668131, 10668612, 10668969, 10668970, 10669584, 10669678, 10669729, 10669775, 10669866, 10669895, 10669992, 10670422, 10670506, 10676348, 10676732, 10677120, 10679795, 10679934, 10680057, 10680290, 10680342, 10680714, 10681512, 10682584, 10682906, 10683022, 10683114, 10683549, 10683620, 10683697, 10683743, 10689898, 10690761, 10691284, 10691556, 10691751, 10693061, 10694300

What 2003 Chrysler Voyager owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
So I was driving down the road and I heard a noise from the rear end of the van mind you the speed limit is 45mph here. I drive it to the nearest shop to have them look at it , they came in and told me I'm lucky to have made it this far as ( the rear chassis has broke! ) this is a safety issue and needs to be addressed just like ford motor company did with their vans !!! I have heard about other voyager vans having this issue in salt belt states .
Tl* the contact owns a 2003 chrysler voyager. While driving 35 MPH, the vehicle shook and failed to accelerate over 50 MPH. The vehicle felt as if it would stall. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that there was an electrical cable failure that ran through the fuel injection and needed to replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 217,000.
Our van model / year isn't listed under the ignition switch recall, but we have the identical issue; you can remove the key in any position - whether the motor is running, or is on accessory.
Headlights and all inside lighting flicker while driving. Dealer replaced alt. And batt. Still flickers while driving.
Headlights flicker while driving or stopped. Vehicle has new alternator. Dash lights, headlights dim on braking.
The failure came suddenly. One day, while driving, the airbag light illuminated and then was extinguished a few minutes after. The second or third time it on remained lit permanently. I immediately reported to the garage in which I bought the car on occasion. Could find the failure. He asked me to go directly to the chrysler dealer. The failure has not repaired, even the cruise control and the horn are inoperative. I can no longer take the vehicle. I called the chrysler dealer in region to talk him about it. He told me that this failure, without any other failure will be charged around 300-350 euros because my car is no longer on safety warranty and it is also not affected by the recall of the chrysler voyager for those same failures. The charge is very expensive for me. It is then I try to find help on internet that I came across your website. That is my entire problem. Three major problems: 1 - airbag light illuminated permanently 2 - speed control (cruise control) non functional 3 - horn inoperative
In the beginning, it began with the airbag light intermittent views. But quickly, a few kilometers later this light remained lit permanently. At the time, the cruise control works once on three, and then after nothing. The airbag light remains lit continuously, the cruise control does not work, and worse the horn is inoperative. I can no longer take the vehicle. I called the chrysler dealer in my region who told me that this will be charged at around 300 euros because my vehicle is not affected by the recall of the chrysler voyager for those same failures. It is then by searching on the internet I came across your site sorry for my approximate english. I speak better french. Note: I write from france, but my country is not listed bellow, so I am to choose a town and phone number from america to fit the formula.
Tl* the contact owns a 2003 chrysler voyager. The contact stated that she heard noise coming from the brakes when she applied pressure. The vehicle was taken to private mechanic who advised the contact to replace the front brakes. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer was notified of the failure nor was the vehicle repaired. The current and the failure mileages were unknown.
Airbag light intermittent will driving.
