Description of the problem	Our van has just over 40k miles on it, and last week it wouldn't start. We jumped it and went out to run errands, but we had to get another jump from a stranger to get home. We charged the battery fully overnight, and it started again for a day, only to have the battery drained again. We bought this car for our growing family (twins on the way!) and i'm reading the horror stories about this year and model stalling while driving on the freeway. This is clearly related to the tipm module that everyone else is having to replace, and this is a safety issue for our family so we are having to fork out $1,200+ to get it repaired when chrysler has a major recall related to this specific issue (it's a chysler part). This should be recalled for 2011 volkswagen routans as well... Volkswagen needs to take responsibility as this is a known, widespread issue.
