Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)THE 2009 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY HAS A DESIGN FLAW IN THE DEFROST VENT DESIGN. THE FRONT DEFROST VENTS ARE NOT PROPERLY ANGLED TO CLEAR THE LOWER PORTION OF THE WINDOW. DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER THE WIPERS CAN BECOME FROZEN TO THE WINDSHIELD AND FAIL TO PROPERLY WORK. THE VENTS ARE ANGLED SO AS THE BOTTOM 4 INCHES OF THE WINDOW HAS LITTLE TO NO AIR CIRCULATING ON THE WINDOW. THIS DESIGN ALSO CAUSES THE WINDOW TO FOG IN TEMPERATURES BELOW 32 DEGREES AND NOT CLEAR PROPERLY. THE VENTS ALSO DO NOT ANGLE TO THE OUTER EDGES OF THE WINDOWS. THIS COULD RESULT IN VISIBILITY ISSUES AND INJURY OR DEATH COULD OCCUR. THIS HAPPENS WHEN PARKED AND WHEN DRIVING. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. WHEN I CONTACTED CHRYSLER CORPORATION THEY FAIL TO SAY THERE IS A FLAW. THE FLAW IS EASILY SEEN BY A VISUAL CHECK JUST BY LOOKING AT THE ANGLE OF THE VENTS ON THE DASH BOARD.
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN THE TEMPERATURE DROPS BELOW 30 DEGREES THE WINDSHIELD WASHER WOULD NOT OPERATE. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY A DEALER WHO INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE FLUID WAS FROZEN AND THAT HE SHOULD WAIT UNTIL THE VEHICLE WARMS UP BEFORE USAGE. THE VEHICLE WAS SUPPOSED TO OPERATE LIKE THAT ACCORDING TO THE DEALER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 18,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.
