Description of the problem	a need a recall on tipm part which controls the engine which turns it on and off. Now a recall is due>becauase it is the issue with vehicle because now the ealerships are saying it is the issue or what is causing it to turn off. As a dodge owner of a grand caravan, from the time i brought the vehicle there were issues. First it started with the vehicle turning itself off and did start back. So the dealership fix it. Then it was the brakes and rotors on the front end. Fix , repair, issues again, then issues again. So many other issues with this van later on. But i decided not to complain to dodge company.. Boy do i regret it now.. It's been almost 4 years now, i still have issues with the engine cutting off while driving. This has gone on for awhile, then recall come out saying it's the engine switch, so now we are waiting on the it, still... When i have did some research and ask some people with computer knowledge on vehicles and they say by the engine cutting off while driving can cause issues with the tipm part (computer). I have taken it so many times to the dealership for this reason for the engine shutting it self off, they would brush it off it's the battery, got new battery then it happen again. Then took it back again , no engine light on , then they can't diagnose any issues. Now warranty is out.. Still no part for the recall engine switch.... 2015. Now that the engine is still shutting it self off, dealership is now saying its the tipm part which is 1200. Or more... I believe it has been the issue the whole time, so dodge needs to have a recall on this part before someone is kill... I worry about it happening to my family. I have three children. It's our only vehicle.. As of today still no part available. Call dodge - no help from them. They need to have a recall on the tipm part before its to late.
