 For the third time in the past month, the vehicle shutdown while traveling. in the most recent incident we were driving down an interstate when it shut off. the vehicle started back up after shifting to neutral and turning the ignition. there are numerous reports on the internet of this happening, but chrysler says this particular vin was not included in its 2011 recall for a faulty ignition (or any recall). we're concerned about the safety of a vehicle that shuts down for no reason while in motion. *tr

 The vehicle appears to be stalling while in motion. the steering wheel, brakes, and gas pedal all lock up leaving the driver unable to control the vehicle in any way. this has happened on at least 10 occasions. the local chrysler dealership attempted to fix the vehicle, but was unable. corporate was notified and sent out a corporate mechanic who was also unable to fix the vehicle. the vehicle has locked three additional times (since the last attempted repair) and both the dealership (who is now refusing to service the vehicle) and corporate (who have not returned calls or emails) have been notified. after conducting an internet search i see that this is not an isolated issue--it has been reported multiple times to the nhtsa as well as on other websites. this is a dangerous and defective vehicle. chrysler has been notified of this defect on multiple occasions and is not doing enough to protect the safety of its consumers. *tr

 On july 13 2011 we purchased a 2010 chrysler town and country with 28500 miles. twice this month, my wife was driving our 2010 chrysler town and country and the engine shut off while she was driving. one of the times it happened while she pulled into a busy street and was very lucky to not have caused an accident. we know that this is an ongoing issue with these vehicles and that a recall has been issued. we took the van to lee automotive in fort walton beach florida, and they said they would take a look at it. 8 hours later i picked the van up. the dealership said they could not duplicate the problem, they test drove it for only 2 miles. they said they looked at the ignition and that the right components are in place. so after 8 hours they did not fix anything. called chrysler corp. and they told us that their database shows that our vehicle has not been serviced to close the recall and that it is still showing an open recall suspense. according to the nhtsa recall, they were supposed to replace the win ignition module which they did not do. we have four children and are very scared to drive our van. we do not know where else to turn and are hoping to be pointed in the right direction to resolve this issue and be able to get on the road without fear.
