| Description of the problem | We own a 2014 dodge grand caravan with 41000 miles on it that has been stalling while driving at mostly in town speeds. No power steering assist , no power brake assist. This vehicle is equipped with hand controls for a disabled driver. With one hand on the steering wheel and one hand on the brake lever all you can do is coast to a stop. Yes the same failures as the 2008 thru 2010 grand caravans that were recalled. The ignition switch has a weak detent spring in it. We had the switch and both keys replaced at a local dealership in rural wisconsin that just happened to have the switch in stock. The service writer got into the vehicle and jiggled the key which shut of the ignition and stated yes this is a bad switch just like the recalled ones.. I have called chrysler asking for them to cover the cost of $977. 91 and they just reply with " i am sorry but your vehicle is out of warranty" |
