| Description of the problem | The van will intermittently fail to start, or it sputters when it starts. Bypassing the fuel pump relay on the tipm module will fix the problem, however it is not a safe permanent solution. Other makes and models have been recalled for the same issue, however the 2010 dodge caravan was not included in the recall even though the same defect and problem is evident. This is a bad design and dodge should stick by their mistakes and provide a fix. |
