2015 Dodge Grand Caravan Complaint Log

While driving and stopped at a stop light the vehicle starting shaking and would no longer engage in drive. No previous warning signs or issues with vehicle slipping gears. Stuck in the middle of street with 4 children. Diagnosed with faulty hydraulic pressure pump and transmission current recall s44 on same issue for same make, model, year and manufacturing date.

The passenger driver-side slide door is permanently lock and will not unlock. Door will not slide open at all. I believe the manufacture door lock actuator is the problem. The vehicle's ODM only have 36,000 miles on the it. Since the door can't be open, it is a safety issue for any passengers riding in the car. Safety issues that will put my two kids at risk since the passenger door can't be open when there is an emergency to exit the car. My two kids are the passengers in the van. As of now, I don't have the money necessary to take it to a mechanic to fix it. However, I search on the internet and found out a lot of other car owners with the same model Dodge Caravan are having the same issues with door being lock permanently. The problem just occurred without any warning. It happen about 2 months ago without any warning and the slide door will not slide open again. Please help us get the manufacturer to fix this problem. I saw today that NHTSA might be looking into this issue so that why I finally file this complain. You can email me with any questions at [XXX]. Thank you.

I WAS DRIVING UP A HILL ON A BRIDGE AND ALL OF A SUDDEN I LOSS POWER TO MY WHEELS OF THE VAN. I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED BY 3 DIFFERENT CARS BECAUSE I COULD NOT DRIVE ANY FURTHER. I WAS LEFT STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF A BRIDGE. I GOT THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A MECHANIC AND THE DIAGNOSIS WAS THAT THE TRANSMISSION PUMP INSIDE THE TRANSMISSION HAD GONE OUT. I WAS TOLD THAT MY EXACT YEAR AND VEHICLE FIT A TRANSMISSION PUMP RECALL FOR THE EXACT ISSUE. AFTER CALLING CHRYSLER'S RECALL HOTLINE, THEY DID A SEARCH OF MY VIN AND SAD THAT MY VIN NUMBER DID NOT MATCH FOR A TRANSMISSION RECALL. AND THEY TOLD ME THERE'S NOTHING THEY COULD DO ABOUT IT. AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE I HAVE FOUND THAT THE 2015 DODGE CARAVAN DID HAVE RECALLS FOR THE TRANSMISSION PUMP IN 2016.THE RECALL CENTRE TOLD ME THAT IT WAS VIN NUMBER SPECIFIC ON THE RECALL AND THAT MINE WAS NOT GOING TO BE COVERED.

FRONT PASSENGER ACTIVE HEADREST SYSTEM DEPLOYED WITH NO EXPLANATION. THE VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN NORMALLY IN A PARKING LOT AND THE HEADREST JUST WENT OFF.

DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND IT STARTED REVING THE RPMS, MAKING A HUMMING NOISE , AND WOULDN'T MOVE.. TRANSMISSION LIGHT ON

WHILE DRIVING MY VAN, THE RPM'S WOULD INCREASE, BUT THERE WAS NO POWER COMING FROM THE ENGINE. I WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE. I PULLED OVER, TRIED TO PUT THE VAN IN PARK, THE ENGINE SHIFTED EXTREMELY ROUGH BEFORE GOING INTO PARK. THE AUTO BODY SHOP IS QUOTING ME FOR OVER $5,000.00 TO REPAIR THE TRANSMISSION.

The contact owns a 2015 Dodge Grand Caravan. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, there was a loud abnormal sound coming from the engine compartment. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer to be diagnosed however, nothing needed to be replaced. The contact wanted a second opinion so she took the vehicle to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed with the transmission pump6V461 needing to be replaced. The contact then took the vehicle back to the dealer where they also confirmed that the transmission pump needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact was relating the failure to NHTSA campaign number: 1000 (Power Train). The manufacturer had been informed of the failure and informed the contact that the vehicle was not under recall. The failure mileage was approximately 60,942.

My van was parked in my driveway overnight and both of the headrests deployed. I am grateful I was not driving it. I couldn’t get them to close they are stuck open. When called dealer was told was not covered even though I have Mopar coverage. Since it’s so much to fix it out of pocket the safety feature is virtually useless because I can’t have it fixed.

I purchased a CPO 2015 Dodge Grand Caravan in February 2020 at around 18,000 miles (CPO warranty up 3-11-22). 18 months later I had to have transmission work done because it was having major issues (they repaired adapter housing and trans cooler line/hoses). 3 months after that I had more transmission work done because the same problems reappeared (they worked on trans pan leak and trans filter change). At this appointment, we asked the dealer that if anything else happens to the transmission around the date of the CPO warranty would a new trans be covered and they said of course. Well 8 days after the warranty expired (3-19-22), the car had to be towed Fieldhouse CDJR because the transmission was shot. A new transmission was put after sitting at the dealership for three months and they said that the trans wasn't under warranty and was $4500. I had to open a case with fca (82695547) in order for them to even start work on the van because they didn't touch it until I got in touch with fca. I was told I would pay $1800 and you would pay $2700. Well the dealership charged me $2700 also so they got $5600 total for that $4500 job. I received a check of the difference from fca and that issue was solved. However, the transmission AGAIN failed 4 months later in October 2022. I took it back to the same dealership because I thought that's where I had to take it because they just did the install. It sat there for 5 months (2-17-2023) until I opened ANOTHER case with fca (85204403) and they replaced the transmission again. It was warrantied until February 17, 2025. The transmission was fine until march 10 2025. Less than three weeks after this warranty expired I lost my transmission AGAIN. Fca says I have to now pay for diagnosis and purchase extended warranty to get any discounted work even though I’ve had 3 faulty transmissions and now have to purchase a 4th that will also probably only make it to JUST past the parts warranty.

I WAS SITTING IN MY PARKED CAR, ENGINE OFF, WAITING FOR SOMEONE. THE DRIVER'S SIDE HEADREST POPPED OPEN SUDDENLY. I CANNOT PUT IT BACK IN POSITION BECAUSE THE PLASTIC TABS INSIDE ARE BROKEN. I AM THANKFUL I WAS LEANING FORWARD READING A BOOK AND THAT I WAS NOT DRIVING AS THIS COULD HAVE BEEN PAINFUL AND/OR DANGEROUS.

CAR PURCHASED BRAND NEW MARCH 2015. FEBRUARY 2021 AT APPROXIMATELY 93,000 MILES EXTENSIVE OIL LEAKING DAMAGE. CAR IS LEAKING OIL FROM THE OIL FILTER HOUSING UNIT INCLUDING THE GASKETS AROUND. AT THIS POINT, THE CORRECT PART IS ON BACK ORDER FROM CHRYSLER, PER THE DEALER WHERE PURCHASED THE CAR, I AM NUMBER 28,000 PLUS IN THE LINE TO RECEIVE THIS PART. THERE IS NO ETA FOR WHEN THE PART WILL BE AVAILABLE. THE VAN LEAKS WHEN PARKED AND IN DRIVE. I GOT AN OIL CHANGE END OF DECEMBER 2020 AND WAS DOWN TO TWO QUARTS OF OIL IN A MONTH TIME AND 1000 MILES SINCE OIL CHANGE. THE CAR IS NOW UN DRIVEABLE AND CHRYSLER IS DOING NOTHING TO ASSIST WITH GETTING A LOANER VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE THEIR WIFE WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE WENT THE VEHICLE'S TRANSMISSION STARTED CATCHING DESPITE THE DRIVER'S FOOT BEING ON THE BRAKES. THE DRIVER HAD TO PULL OFF TO A NEARBY PARKING LOT AND TURN THE VEHICLE OFF TO AVOID HITTING ANOTHER VEHICLE.

WHILE DRIVING MY FRONT DRIVER SEAT HEADREST DEPLOYED FOR NO APPARENT REASON.

THE TRANSMISSION OF THE DODGE GRAND CARAVAN 2015. I CHECKED THE RECALL AND THE MANUFACTURER ONLY RECALLS THE ONES PRODUCED FROM 08/2015 TO 2016. MY CAR WAS PRODUCED IN 02/0215 SO IT WAS NOT RECALLED. THE TRANSMISSION KEPT GETTING PROBLEM WITH THE GEAR AND SHIFT. IT ALSO GAVE A CODE FOR P0740 TCC WHILE IT IS JUST 80,000+ MILES. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING IT FOR 4 MONTHS AND THE CAR HEATED UP PRETTY BAD WITH BAD SMELL AND SHAKING WHEN SPEEDING UP. I TOOK IT TO A SHOP AND THEY SAID DODGE HAS PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION PUMP THAT FEEDS THE TORQUE CONVERTER, AND ALSO CAUSE FAIL HYDRAULIC PRESSURE. THIS COULD BE THE REASON FOR THE DAMAGE OF MY TORQUE CONVERTER. I DON'T KNOW WHERE AND HOW I SHOULD REPORT THIS TO GET IT FIXED BECAUSE IT MAKES NO SENSE TO ME WITH W VEHICLE JUST TURNED 80,000 MILES AND HAS A FAILED TRANSMISSION AND CAUSES SHAKING MOVEMENT WHEN SPEEDING UP WHICH COULD BE DANGEROUS WHEN I DRIVE ON A HIGHWAY. PLEASE CONTACT THE MANUFACTURER TO DISCUSS FOR RECALL ON THESE VEHICLES AS WELL ON TRANSMISSION. THEY ONLY DO THE ONES PRODUCED AFTER AUGUST, 2015 WHICH DOES NOT COVER ENOUGH VEHICLES. MY CAR HAS THAT TRANSMISSION PROBLEM (BUILT ON 02/2015). I ALSO NOTICE A LOT OF OTHER 2015 GRAND CARAVANS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION.
