Consumer Description

FOR THE LAST FIVE YEARS WE HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH A MYSTERIOUS ELECTRICAL ISSUE. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE OF THE SAME ISSUE. THE VAN WILL BE FINE AND YOU GET IN TO START IT AND WHEN TURNING THE KEY IT WILL NOT START. FULL CHARGE, FULL BATTERY. STARTER IS FINE - EVERYTHING CHECKS OUT FINE. WITH A JUMP IT WILL USUALLY START. SOMETIMES IT WILL START ON IT'S OWN IF YOU WAIT A LITTLE WHILE. PEOPLE ON BOARDS HAVE STATED REPLACING DOZENS OF THINGS - TO THEN HAVE THE SAME ISSUE A COUPLE DAYS LATER. WE ARE USE TO HAVING TO JUMP OUR VEHICLE ABOUT 1 OUT OF 20 TIMES. WE HAVE TAKEN IT TO MULTIPLE MECHANICS AND HAD MULTIPLE THINGS CHECKED AND REPLACED. AN EXAMPLE OF A BOARD WITH MANY OTHERS EXPERIENCING THE SAME THING CAN BE FOUND HERE: HTTPS://FORUMS.EDMUNDS.COM/DISCUSSION/12634/CHRYSLER/TOWN-AND-COUNTRY/2008-T-C-IGNITION-SWITCH-PROBLEM/P1 IN ADDITION - SOMETIMES YOU WILL BE DRIVING AND EVERYTHING STARTS GOING OFF (WIPERS, LIGHTS, FLASHERS, HORN, ENTIRE DASH LIGHTS UP, ETC - NO RESOLVE). THIS CAN HAPPEN WHILE STATIONARY OR DRIVING.
