There is a problem with my wireless ignition node (win) that causes my van's engine to shut off randomly while it is being driven. This has happened at least 25 times over the past two years, during times of high speed, low speed, and stopped at intersections. There is zero warning and the issue does not trigger any check engine light. There is a recall related to this exact issue (r03/the federal safety agency 14v‑373) that has already been issued for "most" 2010 dodge grand caravans, but I am told my VIN does not qualify! This recall must be updated to include all 2010 dodge grand caravans as soon as possible. The repair needed to correct the problem is over $1000 and this issue poses a significant safety hazard!
My dodge grand caravan, 2010, has started cutting off on me while driving. My stabilizer light comes on, rpms drop to 0, and I lose my power steering along with low break reaction. I feel this is very unsafe. I have changed several sensors to no avail. I started doing research and found that they have safety recall l25. Called my local dodge dealership to set up the repair, only to find out my van was not included in the recall, even though it is in the alotted years (2008-2010). What am I supposed to do. This could easily cause a wreck
Tl* the contact owns a 2010 dodge grand caravan.

The vehicle was taken to nichols dodge in burlington, north carolina in october of 2017 for a tipm issue.

The vehicle will not turn off after key has been removed. Vehicle will stay running until either battery is disconnected or it runs out of gas.
Beginning september 2017 to december 2017 (present): multiple issues related to electrical: (1) engine stalled while driving at 30 MPH (city street, driving straight), and lost power steering and brakes; (2) electrical system warning light has been coming on from september 2017 to december 2017 (present). Light often comes on when power window buttons are pressed; battery has been checked; alternator has been replaced twice (!) in december 2017 and warning light still comes on; (3) windows roll themselves down when vehicle is not running; this happened multiple times in winter and cold weather, there is no chance the window was left down by the driver; (4) head and tail lights blink when vehicle is not running; (5) rear seat power outlet not working; (6) rear defroster not working; (7) side mirror defrosters not working. Research into others with similar problems suggest defective tipm.
Sometimes the car won't start unless you turn the key in twice
My wife's 2010 dodge grand caravan is experiencing the exact issue described in recall l02 and described here... Https://repairpal.com/recall/11v139000 but our VIN number was not included in the recall. Details of the issue: when driving on various streets (more often when on neighborhood streets), the van randomly shuts off. The dashboard lights remain on. The van can be put into neutral or park and restarted without issue. It has happened about eight times in the last couple of months and a few times in dangerous situations. It happens when driving straight or turning.
The tipm (totally integrated power module) is either defective, or damaged from weather exposure. Sparatic power issues are present causing odd things to go wrong, from the battery being drained, to backlight flickering on the dash, to upon exiting the vehicle attempting to lock vehicle to only have it unlock again, to also upon locking, having the front windows randomly go down.
The vehicle has shut down while driving about 15 times over the last 2 years. While driving, usually at slower speeds but once on the freeway and a few times at about 45 MPH, the ABS light comes on and then everything shuts off -- engine, power steering, brakes -- everything. It is a miracle it hasn't killed us yet. We have taken it to the dealer several times and they can not replicate it or find any code that is the problem. It is not the ignition recall as we have had that fixed. During my research I have found that this is a problem with this vehicle.
While driving and or coming to a stop sign or light the brake light ,the slippery road icon,speedometer jumps only no acceleration,just jumps other icon lights as well appear on dash,often it stalls at light and is difficult to restart tying up traffic on several occasions this problem has caused a stall on the highway where I can loosed control of the vehicle making it difficult to get off the highway safely,I was told that the computer shows a faulty brake light switch sensor ,I did replace it yesterday,9/29/17 with a factory duplicate but the problem still exist. I'm concerned so if you can help please let me know. [xxx] thanks. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
Vehicle is stalling out without warning. I have noticed it is a common problem with the vans from dodge and chrysler. It is dangerous to drive, it stalls in traffic at idle or when pulling into traffic. When it stalls sometimes it will activatee the esp light and set off multiple obd2 codes, orbit will stall and not set off any lights.
Vehicle shuts off while in motion when I hit a bump. It happens at any speed. I have had to coast to the shoulder of the interstate in order to restart the vehicle. This very problem was recalled in vehicles manufactured through may 2010, but my vehicle is outside of the recall, as it was manufactured in september 2010. This is a very serious safety issue.
After driving with vehicle in park, turn key off and engine keeps running as smooth as normal running, pull fobik key out and move it 50 ft away and vehicle keeps running.
Vehicle not starting randomly. When you try to start it just clicks once and won't turn over. After a few minutes it will start. I have found 1,000's of reports of the same issue for this same make model and year. Please fix this issue.
My van will just shuts off with no warning while I am driving. I lose my power steering and power brakes and hard to control. I then have to try to safely pull over and it will just start right back up
Van will very randomly not start as if the battery is dead but it is not. It will start fine for weeks and suddenly not start and then start again later and be gone for weeks again.
We have a 2010 dodge grand caravan sxt with 133,000 miles and since the day we got it back in july all it has done while driving is shut down/shut itself off. Lights on dashboard will come on, flash and van will just shut down. Key refuses to come out at times, have no hazard lights when this happens, and it can take anywhere from 5-30 minutes for the van to even start again. This happens on the interstate and in the city, doesnt matter really where we are, even at stop lights/stop signs
Bought vehicle used from kia dealership august 2016. March 2017 I started experiencing problems with headlights intermittently shutting off either before startup (while parked and ignition off) or during operation (while driving). All other electrical systems seemed fine including amber running lights, tail-lights, turn signals, and brake lights. Took vehicle to mechanic july 2017, no issues were found. No problems for 2 weeks, then started experiencing same problem. No recalls or solutions found at this time.
While driving the engine stopped and I lost power steering. After turning off the car and putting it into park I was able to restart the car.
Now, in addition to stalling at any time and any speed, at times the van will not start (wont even turn over) and the windows intermittently work. Clearly it's a totally integrated power module (tipm) issue. Folks, check out how incompetent the federal safety agency is, go to http://www.chryslerproblems.com/trends/tipm/ so many tipm issues that the federal safety agency refuses to address until some of us die.
