Description of the problem	About a year ago the vehicle started sporadically not coming on. Battery was replaced, that was not the issue, alternator was tested, that was not the issue? About 3-4 months ago the problem got much worse and would sometimes take 2-5 attempts before the car would start. Sometimes it would start then immediately stall. Last week it just stopped running; would not turn on at all. Turns out it is the tipm that has gone bad not allowing the fuel relay to work properly. The part is around $1200 to replace, if you can even find one. Chrysler/dodge has recalled this in various other vehicles but still refuses to recall it in the 2011-2012 dodge grand caravan. We have friends who also have a 2011 grand caravan and were having the same problems before us. Their dealer replace all sorts of other parts on the car before they took it to a shop that told them it was the tipm; the dodge dealership said they doubted that was the issue but if it was they would replace it for them at no cost. Guess what? It turns out that was the issue and now it has been replaced and they have not had an issue since. I have since, after much research on the internet, made a bypass for the vehicle; which will work temporarily but it will not be a permanent fix. I want them to fix my vehicle! *js
