SATURDAY, DECEMBER 22, 2018 - WE WERE RETURNING HOME AFTER VISITING OUT OF TOWN RELATIVES FOR THE WINTER HOLIDAYS. THE VAN STALLED ON US (ENTIRE FAMILY OF FOUR PLUS ONE AUNT-FIVE PEOPLE TOTAL IN OUR VAN) IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD! I WAS A PANICKING FEARING WE COULD ALL DIE THAT INSTANT! WE WERE VERY LUCKY TO SAFETLY GET THE VAN TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITH THE ROLLING MOMENTIUM THE VAN STILL HAD DESPITE THE ENGINE TURNING OFF, NO POWER STEERING, AND NO POWER BRAKES! MY WIFE HAD BEEN TELLING ME (STARTED ABOUT FIVE YEARS AGO) THAT THE VAN RANDOMLY STALLS WHILE IN TRAFFIC AND I HAD BEEN RESEARCHING THE ISSUE ONLINE CONTINUOUSLY WHEN I HAD FREE TIME AND REMEMBERED THE RANDOM STALLING ISSUE. NO TROUBLE CODES CAME UP WHEN THE VAN STALLED ON SATURDAY, DECEMBER 22, 2018. AFTER REASEARCHING WHAT OTHERS HAVE POSTED ONLINE, THIS ISSUE SEEMS LIKE A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT NEEDS TO BE FILED FOR IT BECAUSE OF THE SEVERITY OF THE ISSUE (PUTTING FAMILIES LIVES AT RISK, THATS THE MAIN PURPOSE OF BUYING A VAN, TO TAKE YOUR FAMILY PLACES).

ENGINE STALLS OR STUMBLES AFTER FILLING UP. HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE ABOUT 90,000 MILES, CURRENTLY AT 97,500. THE STALL THAT OCCURRED IN AN INTERSECTION YESTERDAY A COUPLE BLOCKS FROM THE GAS STATION WAS A DANGEROUS AND TENSE SITUATION BUT THANKFULLY DRIVERS AROUND ME WERE ALERT AND COURTEOUS AND NOTHING BAD HAPPENED. WHEN IT STALLS THE STEERING AND BRAKES ARE NO LONGER POWER ASSISTED, SO A SMALLER DRIVER MAY NOT BE ABLE TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE. AFTER STALLING, I PUT THE FLASHERS ON, SHIFT INTO PARK, AND AM ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AND CONTINUE. SOMETIMES IT WILL STALL OR STUMBLE A COUPLE OF TIMES WITHIN A MILE OR SO OF THE STATION. THIS IS THE PATTERN. FILL UP, STALL ONCE OR TWICE OR STUMBLE ONCE OR TWICE, THEN FINE FOR THE REST OF THE TANK. IT IS INTERESTING TO ME THAT THIS DOES NOT CAUSE ANY ENGINE CODES TO PRESENT.
POWER SLIDING PASSENGER DOORS STOP WORKING DUE TO WIRES INSIDE WIRE HARNESS BREAKING. SPLICING THE WIRES BACK TOGETHER IS ONLY A TEMP. FIX ADDITIONALLY RUST HAS DEVELOPED AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SLIDING DOORS. ADDITIONALLY, I AM NOT ABLE TO LOCK THE PASSENGER SLIDING DOOR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE.

1DP14002 · 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
