WE HAVE HAD REPEATED ISSUES WITH THE ENGINE SUDDENLY SHUTTING DOWN. IT HAPPENS IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING AND IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. THERE HAVE BEEN TIMES WE ARE GOING AROUND A CURVE OR PULLING OUT IN TRAFFIC AND THE ENGINE WILL JUST SHUT OFF. THE VAN HAS TO BE PUT IN NEUTRAL AND THE KEY HAS TO BE TURNED ON. WE HAVE ELIMINATED ALL KEYS FROM OUR FOB. THE VAN HAS BEEN INSPECTED BY NUMEROUS MECHANICS AND NO ONE HAS BEEN ABLE TO DETERMINE WHAT THE ISSUE IS. WE ARE EXTREMELY CONCERNED THAT OUR FAMILY IS GOING TO BE KILLED IN A CRASH BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. THE ENGINE SHUTTING OFF CONTINUES TO GET WORSE. CHRYSLER HAS TOLD US THERE ARE NO RECALLS. WHY DOES IT TAKE NUMEROUS DEATHS IN ORDER FOR THERE TO BE A RECALL? WE BOUGHT THIS VAN BECAUSE WE THOUGHT IT WAS SAFE AND NOW WE FEAR IT IS GOING TO SERIOUSLY INJURE OR KILL OUR FAMILY. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS. *TR

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WITHIN THE PAST 2 YEARS OUR VAN HAS STALLED WITHIN 1-2 MILES OF LEAVING A GAS STATION. ON EACH OF THOSE OCCURRENCES THE AUTO SHUTOFF FUNCTION OF THE GAS PUMP WAS USED TO TERMINATED FUELING. ON ONE SPECIFIC OCCASION THE VAN STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION. IF IT HAD BEEN RUSH HOUR IT WOULD HAVE PRESENTED A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE FOR EVERYONE AROUND. ON OTHER OCCASIONS WHEN MANUALLY TERMINATING FUELING THE VAN HAS STALLED. THE PROBLEM APPARENTLY OCCURS AT A CERTAIN LEVEL IN THE TANK WHEN IT IS APPROACHING FULL. *TR

PRETTY MUCH EVER SINCE I'VE HAD THE CAR, I WILL OCCASIONALLY BE DRIVING AND BUMP THE KEY WITH MY KNEE, TURNING THE VAN OFF ALTOGETHER. THE POWER STEERING STOPS WORKING WITH THE ENGINE OFF, SO I HAVE TO TRY TO TURN ON MY HAZARD LIGHTS AND CAREFULLY NAVIGATE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO PUT THE VAN IN "PARK" AGAIN SO THAT I CAN RESTART IT (I CAN'T RESTART IT WHILE I'M STILL MOVING). I AM VERY, VERY CAREFUL TO TRY TO NEVER EVEN TOUCH THE KEY WITH MY KNEE SO THAT THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN, BUT IT STILL DOES OCCASIONALLY. *TR

FOR A LITTLE WHILE NOW WHEN WE HAVE THE A/C RUNNING IT LEAKS FROM THE FIREWALL ONTO THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VAN FLOOR. IF THE A/C IS RAN LONG ENOUGH WITH OUT DRYING OUT THE FLOOR ON THE DRIVERS SIDE GETS WET ALSO. I KNOW THERE IS A RECALL ON THE 2008 TOWN AND COUNTRY'S FOR THE REASON. OUR VAN WAS BUILT IN JANUARY 2007 AND THE RECALL ON THE 2008'S START ON JUNE 27, 2007 AND GO TO JULY 30, 2008 MANUFACTURED VANS. I DO BELIEVE MY VAN SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN ON THIS RECALL BECAUSE WE HAVE HAD THE A/C DRAIN CLEANED AND THAT IS NOT WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. THE LEAK IS FROM THE FIREWALL WHERE THE A/C CONNECTS TO THE INSIDE OF THE VAN UNDER THE CARPET. WE HAVE SEEN IT LEAK AND I WOULD LOVE FOR IT TO BE FIXED SINCE THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH IT. PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT I CAN DO. I DON'T WANT THE CARPET TO ROT OUT AND I DON'T WANT ANYTHING TO BE MESSED UP EITHER. THANK YOU. ALSO WE HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE VIN SINCE WE GOT THE VAN.... WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN TOLD IT IS AN INVALID VIN IT WOULDN'T EVEN WORK ON THIS SITE BUT THAT IS WHAT IS ON THE VAN IN THE VIN LOCATION. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE INSURANCE COMPANY OR THE REVENUE OFFICE DID TO GET IT TO WORK. *TR

AFTER FILLING UP THE FUEL TANK AND DRIVING MAYBE ONE BLOCK THE ENGINE STALLED. THIS HAPPENS NOW AFTER EVERY FILLUP. IT IS EXACTLY THE SAME SYMPTOMS AS IN NHTSA ACTION NUMBER : PE13016 FOR OTHER CHRYSLER PRODUCTS OF THE PREVIOUS YEAR. A SEARCH IN GOOGLE CAME UP WITH MANY, MANY PEOPLE WITH MANY DIFFERENT CARS EXPERIENCING THE SAME THING. IF YOU PULL OUT OF THE GAS STATION DIRECTLY ONTO A HIGHWAY AND STALL WHILE TRYING TO MERGE INTO HIGH SPEED TRAFFIC, THE RESULTS COULD BE DISASTROUS (B'AH). *TR

DP14002 · Engine Stall After Refueling

Opened Sep 5, 2014 · Closed Apr 6, 2015

Status: closed (inferred from source dates) · Fuel System, Gasoline:storage:tank Assembly

This defect petition evaluates July 7, 2014 allegations from an owner of a model year (MY) 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan minivan that engine stall occurs in these vehicles without warning after refueling.The petitioner's vehicle is a Chrysler RS platform minivan.The RS platform includes MY 2003 through 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan, Dodge Caravan, Chrysler Town and Country and Chrysler Voyager minivans.NHTSA evaluated the petition by analyzing consumer complaints submitted to the Agency, analyzing field data, reviewing technical information provided in Chrysler's response to an Agency information request and testing an RS minivan identified by its owner as experiencing post-refuel engine stalls.After completing this evaluation, NHTSA has concluded that further investigation is unlikely to result in a finding that a defect related to motor vehicle safety exists.The stalls occurring in these vehicles only occur immediately after filling up the fuel tank and happen at low engine speeds. The failure rate is low, even after 8 to 13 years of the vehicles being in service, and there are no reports of crashes or injuries resulting from the stall condition.In the Agency's view, additional investigation is unlikely to result in finding the existence of a safety-related defect in the subject vehicles.Given the need to allocate and prioritize NHTSA's limited resources to best accomplish the Agency's safety mission, the petition is denied.This action does not constitute a finding by NHTSA that a safety-related defect does not exist. The Agency will take further action if warranted by future circumstances. More details concerning our review can be found in the Federal Register Notice for this action.The following 161 VOQs are included in the petition evaluation: 10209242, 10229468, 10240708, 10260923, 10275939, 10276532, 10296487, 10298175, 10328669, 10330144, 10346517, 10349789, 10354758, 10363689, 10372112, 10372368, 10372514, 10378031, 10379764, 10382938, 10387448, 10394063, 10398877, 10413918, 10418652, 10420924, 10427063, 10437525, 10445392, 10446902, 10470028, 10471249, 10473733, 10502231, 10503114, 10504260, 10509862, 10511988, 10512120, 10512385, 10512650, 10513147, 10538154, 10549841, 10551763, 10555188, 10555418, 10556754, 10565367, 10574012, 10574398, 10586555, 10587212, 10587559, 10593433, 10607841, 10607913, 10608922, 10615810, 10622468, 10628141, 10632112, 10632128, 10632172, 10632175, 10632231, 10632262, 10632266, 10632270, 10632305, 10632316, 10632326, 10632370, 10632385, 10632399, 10632492, 10632542, 10632765, 10632833, 10632928, 10633197, 10633281, 10633409, 10633421, 10633483, 10633507, 10637752, 10637804, 10637950, 10637975, 10638032, 10638289, 10638290, 10638401, 10638968, 10639218, 10639623, 10641157, 10641603, 10641614, 10641836, 10644339, 10644705, 10649713, 10649895, 10649932, 10650313, 10652590, 10653147, 10653783, 10654533, 10655226, 10658900, 10659679, 10660320, 10662588, 10662645, 10662662, 10663473, 10667056, 10667437, 10668081, 10668094, 10668131, 10668612, 10668969, 10668970, 10669584, 10669678, 10669729, 10669775, 10669866, 10669895, 10669992, 10670422, 10670506, 10676348, 10676732, 10677120, 10679795, 10679934, 10680057, 10680290, 10680342, 10680714, 10681512, 10682584, 10682906, 10683022, 10683114, 10683549, 10683620, 10683697, 10683743, 10689898, 10690761, 10691284, 10691556, 10691751, 10693061, 10694300
