NHTSA Complaint #10854288 — 2008 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN

SEPT 2015-MY ENGINE SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING AT 25MPH AND THE HORN AND WIPERS WENT CRAZY. I WAS ABLE TO PULL CAR TO SIDE OF ROAD SAFELY. FEB 2016- TOOK VAN IN FOR RECALL FOR NEW KEY FAB. THE FOLLOWING WEEK THE CAR WENT CRAZY WHEN I PUSHED UNLOCK BUTTON TO GET INTO THE VEHICLE USING THE NEW KEY FAB. HORN WENT OFF, WIPERS SQUIRTING FLUID AND DOORS LOCKED ON ME EXCEPT FOR THE REAR HATCH. TOOK INTO DEALER THEY CHANGED THE CLOCK SPRING. MARCH 2016- VEHICLE WENT CRAZY AGAIN (HORN, WIPERS, DOORS) I GOT INTO VEHICLE THROUGH REAR HATCH, UNLOCKED HOOD, TURNED KEY TO START TO SEE IF I COULD UNLOCK, CAR STARTED. I TRIED TO TURN OFF AND ENGINE KEPT GOING WITHOUT KEY IN IGNITION. I GOT OUT DISCONNECTED BATTERY CABLE AND THE VEHICLE. WAS STILL GOING CRAZY AND THE ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES. I TOOK VEHICLE INTO DEALER THEY FIRST STATED IT NEEDED NEW BATTERY CABLES.. I TOLD THEM THAT WILL NOT FIX THE ISSUE.. IT IS MORE THAN THAT. KEEP THE VEHICLE UNTIL YOU FIND THE REAL SOLUTION. NOW THE DEALERSHIP IS TELLING ME IT IS THE INTEGRATED POWER MODULE ($950) ON TOP ON THE CLOCK SPRING THAT THEY REPLACED FOR ($550). I FEEL LIKE THE DEALERSHIP IS JUST REACHING FOR SOLUTIONS AND ION THE MEANTIME I HAVE TO KEEP PAYING FOR THEIR TESTING.
