What 2019 Dodge Grand Caravan owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Air Bag light stays on. Mechanic found defect in driver's side headrest. Part was ordered in February 2026, still waiting for the replacement part 6 months later. Dodge has no idea when the part will be available. Extremely HAZARDOUS driving condition, driving without air bag protection because Chrysler/Dodge doesn't have replacement parts. This dangerous condition should be considered a SAFETY RECALL, that would get Chrysler/Dodge to take this more seriously and have the replacement parts. 08/06/26
The contact owns a 2019 Dodge Caravan. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle the airbag warning light had remained illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local mechanic who diagnosed that the front driver side head rest sensor had failed and needed to replaced. The mechanic contacted the local dealer and informed that the part was on back order and not available. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 73,000.
Passenger head rest went off with car off and no one near it.
My airbag light goes on intermittently. I have no idea why. I took it to an independent repair shop and they said that they could not help me, I needed to check with the dealer to see if there was a recall. I checked for recalls, and there was no recall. Additionally, the tire pressure sensors also turn on intermittently even when tire pressure is correct.
The contact owned a 2019 Dodge Grand Caravan. The contact stated while driving approximately 35 MPH, when a vehicle pulled out in front of her vehicle she swerved to the left to avoid the vehicle and crashed into a vehicle that was stopped for traffic on the road. The contact's vehicle front driver's bumper, grill, and headlight had crashed into the stopped vehicle's passenger side rear bumper and wheel well. The contact stated the police and EMS were on the scene. None of the air bags deployed. The contact stated that she complained about pain in both her collarbones and pain in both her knees. The contact was examined by the EMS, but declined to be transported to the ER. The contact had her vehicle towed back to her residence. The vehicle was inspected by her insurance provider and was declared a total loss. The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 150,000.
While driving car, airbag indicator goes on and off multiple times during drive.
Driver side seat. AHR deployed without impact. Plastic piece holding retaining pin snapped
Vehicle failed inspection, AIR BAG LIGHT ON. Driver seat wire harness open left thorax squib must replace entire harness, air bag circuits cannot be repaired due to high resistance splicing causes. Part on Back order until August 2023!! Car cannot be repaired and is out of service, unable to drive, illegal to drive, I have a $20,000 car loan, Thrifty Car Sales of Westfield, [XXX], violated Massachusetts Lemon Law and refused the car while under the 60 day, 2500 mile Used Car Warranty. Exhaust Leak, Muffler clamp rusted through, not holding pipes together. Driver Front Marker Light Bulb open circuit, bulb needs to be replaced. Air Bag light noted to be out by Firestone on February 25th, 2023. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
The Air Bag Light remains on. I was told that it is responsible for the Driver's Side Air Bag. It was formally documented on February 25th, 2023 by Firestone on King St. in Northampton, MA 01035. It has been brought to LIA DODGE KING STREET in NORTHAMPTON, MA 01060. THEY TOLD ME THE WIRING PART TO REPAIR THIS IS ON BACKORDER AND NOT AVAILABLE UNTIL AUGUST 2023 and not guaranteed to be available. In addition, I was told it would cost $900.00 to install. I was told this by multiple people including CHRYSLER DODGE CUSTOMER SERVICE. I WAS TOLD A NEW PART IS IN DEVELOPMENT AND NOT READY UNTIL AUGUST 2023. If this is in fact, true, then this is a huge safety risk for all 2019 Dodge Grand Caravan Driver's who have the Air Bag Light on and may or may not have a working Air Bag. This is a huge safety issue. Additionally, I was told that the part is a "Wiring Harness" Part#68531685AA and it would cost $900.00 to install. On the Mopar Site, it is just the JUMPER WIRE SENSOR" PART# 68531685AA and is $45.00 plus $20.00 Shipping!!!! I was also told by Chrysler Dodge Customer Service that a Dodge Dealer can install the part after I buy the part on Mopar.com and Lia Dodge told me they could not. My car has been rejected following a failed inspection for the Airbag light and ALSO the RUSTED CLAMP that is holding the Exhaust Pipes together and Co2 is backing up into the Cabin. In addition to the SENSOR JUMPER WIRE Part# 98531685AA, the Vehicle should also be recalled for the Part# 4578916AB The Exhaust Clamp that is rusted and falling off causing Co2 to back up into the Cabin according to both Lia Dodge and Auto Express in Hadley, MA 01035. The Vehicle is off the road and not able to be repaired or inspected as it is illegal to drive until it is inspected. Please confirm the above information regarding the parts and start a recall so I can have these problems fixed or reimbursed by Dodge the Manufacturer, as they SHOULD BE BY THE MANUFACTURER. The Vehicle only has 70,000 miles.
