ONLY IN RAINY WEATHER AND OREGON GETS A LOT OF SPORADIC RAIN. ALSO, THE IGNITION TENDS TO TURN THE AIRBAG LIGHTS ON AND OFF WHENEVER I TURN A CORNER LEFT OR RIGHT OF HIT A BUMP.

CAR AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AT ABOUT 68,000 MILES ONCE AND THEN AT 78,000 IT CAME ON AND STAYS ON ALL THE TIME. THIS IS MY SECOND 2006 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN AND THAT ONE DID THE SAME THING. HAD TO GET RID OF IT BECAUSE OF RUST AT 192,000 MILES. WHENEVER I START UP AND DRIVE, IT IS CONSTANTLY ON NOW. NEVER GOES OUT.

I RECENTLY TOOK MY CAR IN FOR AN INSPECTION STICKER, BUT IT FAILED DUE TO THE AIR BAG SENSOR LIGHT BEING ON. I LOOKED UNDER THE RECALLS AND THEIR IS A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE FOR THE YEAR AND MAKE OF MY CAR, BUT WHEN I SEARCH THE VIN NUMBER IT CLAIMS THAT MY CARE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. CAN THIS BE LOOKED INTO SO THAT MY CARE CAM BE INCLUDED AND I CAN GET THE ISSUES FIXED. I HAD MY INSPECTION DONE ON 3/2/18.

EVERY TIME IT RAINS OR I TAKE MY CAR TO THE CAR WASH THE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON. AFTER A DAY OR TWO IT GOES OFF. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC WHO TOLD ME THAT MY VAN HAD STORED CODES FOR ' NO RIGHT FRONT SIDE IMPACT SENSOR COMMUNICATION ' AND 'RIGHT FRONT IMPACT SENSOR INTERNAL 1'. IN RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE I DISCOVERED RECALL #10V008000 WHICH COVERS 2005 AND 2006 GRAND CARAVANS AND PRETTY MUCH DESCRIBES EXACTLY WHAT IS HAPPENING TO MY VAN. HOWEVER, WHEN I CONTACTED DODGE I WAS TOLD THAT MY PARTICULAR VIN NUMBER IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE CURRENT RECALL. I FIND IT VERY STRANGE THAT MY VAN FITS ALL OF THE PARAMETERS FOR THE RECALL BUT IS EXCLUDED.

OUR AIR BAG LIGHT COMES ON AFTER REPEATED, EXACT TURNS OF THE STEERING WHEEL. HAS TO DO WITH THE STEERING WHEEL CLOCK SPRING. IT ONLY ILLUMINATES IN TEMPS OVER 70 DEGREES OR SO. WE LIVE IN THE DESERT OF ARIZONA AND HAVE BEEN EXCLUDED IN PREVIOUS RECALLS. WE ARE AFRAID THE AIR BAGS WILL NOT WORK PROPERLY IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH.

DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT CONTINUALLY COMES ON FOR LONG AND SHORT PERIODS OF TIME. MOST CASES IT STAYS ON EVEN AFTER PLACING ON SEAT BELT. I BELIEVE THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG SYSTEM IS DEFECTIVE. THIS WAS ON A PREVIOUS RECALL A FEW YEARS AGO AND CORRECTED BY THE DODGE DEALERSHIP. HOWEVER, THIS WARNING LIGHT CONTINUES TO STAY ON FOR FIVE MINUTES OR MORE AND THAN GOES OUT.

I WAS DRIVING MY 2006 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN SE ON THE NIGHT OF I02/11/2014 WHEN A WRONG-WAY DRIVER HIT ME (HEAD ON COLLISION). SHE TURNED RIGHT TO GET GASOLINE (NOTE: NOT TO AVOID US, DID NOT KNOW SHE WAS GOING WRONG WAY UNTIL WE HIT HER), AND WE HIT HER SIDE DOOR, TIRE AREA, AND THE VEHICLE BOUNCED BACKWARDS. I HAD TO PUSH OFF THE STEERING WHEEL TO PREVENT MY HEAD FROM GOING THRU THE WINDSHIELD, MY FATHER WHO WAS THE PASSENGER, HIT HIS ARM OFF THE DASHBOARD. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY, WHICH WAS THE ISSUE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED, THEY LOOKED AT THE CAR AND SAID NOTHING IS WRONG WITH IT AND THAT THE CAR WOULD HAVE TO BE CRUSHED FOR THE AIR BAGS TO DEPLOY, THE AIR BAGS HAVE BEEN RECALLED BEFORE, WHICH IS A CONCERN TO ME. WHEN LOOKING AT THE VEHICLE DASH BOARD, IT DOES NOT APPEAR THAT THERE IS EVEN A PASSENGER AIR BAG IN PLACE. MY BUMPER HAD DAMAGE, A LONG WITH MY HEAD LIGHT, ALONG WITH MY HOOD. I WAS TRAVELING ABOUT 40MPH IN A 45MPH ZONE, AS WE WERE SLOWING DOWN AT A RED LIGHT AND WHEN IT TURNED GREEN AGAIN I CONTINUED ON. WE HAD INJURIES OF OUR NECK AND BACK AS WELL AS THE DRIVERS LEFT FOOT, MY WRIST HURT FROM TIME TO TIME AND STILL SOMEWHAT DOES, FROM PUSHING OFF THE WHEEL.UPDATED 06/03/14 *BF UPDATED 06/06/2014

TO WHOM THIS MAY CONCERN: I SPOKE WITH A DODGE CUSTOMER SERVICE AGENT RECENTLY REGARDING AN ISSUE WITH MY 2006 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN, WHICH I FEEL SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER CHRYSLER RECALL CAMPAIGN J38 BUT, ACCORDING TO THEM, IS NOT. THE ISSUE WITH MY VEHICLE INVOLVES A CRACKED AIRBAG SENSOR, WHICH CURRENTLY ILLUMINATES THE AIRBAG LIGHT AND I SUSPECT MAY NOT OPERATE PROPERLY IN A FRONTAL CRASH. MY LOCAL MECHANIC COPIED THE RECALL NOTIFICATION FOR ME AND MARKED THE INFORMATION PERTINENT TO MY PARTICULAR VEHICLE. HE FEELS AS THOUGH THE NECESSARY REPAIRS TO THE AIRBAG SENSOR SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER THIS RECALL CAMPAIGN. ACCORDING TO THE RECALL NOTIFICATION, ?2005-2006 DODGE GRAND CARAVANS BUILT FROM JANUARY 19, 2005 THROUGH APRIL 5, 2006? AND ORIGINALLY SOLD OR CURRENTLY REGISTERED IN CERTAIN STATES (TO INCLUDE PENNSYLVANIA) ARE INVOLVED IN THIS RECALL. THE AIRBAG LIGHT INITIALLY CAME ON AFTER DRIVING THROUGH STANDING WATER, BUT WOULD GO OFF AFTER A PERIOD OF TIME. THE LIGHT IS NOW ON CONSTANTLY. SINCE MY VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY REGISTERED IN PENNSYLVANIA, ONE OF THE STATES LISTED ON THE RECALL NOTIFICATION, AND WAS BUILT IN DECEMBER 2005, I BELIEVE THE REPAIRS SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER THIS RECALL. SINCE I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE USED WITH 13,000 MILES ON IT, I DO NOT KNOW WHERE IT WAS ORIGINALLY SOLD OR REGISTERED. PLEASE CONTACT ME WHEN YOU HAVE REVIEWED THIS INFORMATION AND CAN GIVE ME YOUR INFORMED DECISION ABOUT THE REPAIRS TO MY VEHICLE AND ANY CONCERN YOU HAVE ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MY VEHICLE. I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME AND EFFORT.

ON 6/27/11 THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED IN OUR 2006 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN FOR NO REASON WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN AT ABOUT 25 MPH. THE DRIVER HAD MINOR INJURIES. CHRYSLER HAS REFUSED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE AT THEIR COST AND HAVE GIVEN US A REPAIR QUOTE OF ABOUT $4000.00. CHRYSLER TOLD US THAT THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT WAS ON FOR 250 DRIVING HOURS BEFORE THE INCIDENT, BUT THAT IS COMPLETELY FALSE. THEY WILL NOT RELEASE THE REPORT TO US. AT THIS POINT, THE VEHICLE HAS NOT YET BEEN REPAIRED. AFTER THE INCIDENT, WE WERE TOLD ABOUT A PREVIOUS AIRBAG RECALL ON SOME 2006 GRAND CARAVANS. AFTER THE INCIDENT, THE 2008 GRAND CARAVANS WERE ALSO RECALLED FOR UNEXPECTED AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. ALSO THE STEERING GEAR WAS LEAKING AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. ALSO, THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED.

ON FEBRUARY 8, 2011 WHILE DRIVING IN THE RAIN MY 2006 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. ON FEBRUARY 14, 2011 I READ ONLINE ABOUT NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID# 10V008000 AND NHTSA ACTION # RQ09003 THAT STATED THIS PROBLEM WOULD BE COVERED BY CHRYSLER FREE OF COST. ON FEBRUARY 17,2011 I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO DODGE FOR THIS TO BE FIXED AND THEY STATED M VIN WAS NOT ONE OF THE VINS COVERED BY THE SAFETY CAMPAIGN SO I HAD TO PAY $225 TO HAVE THE FRONT AIRBAG CRASH SENSOR AND WIRING LEADING UP TO THE SENOR REPLACED.

BACK REAR WINDOW IMPLODED FOR THE SECOND TIME(FIRST TIME 2009, SECOND TIME 2010), NOBODY SEEMS TO HAVE AN ANSWER FOR WHY THIS HAPPENS OTHER THAN IT WAS COLD AND SNOWY OUTSIDE SO THE WEATHER MUST HAVE CAUSED THIS TO OCCUR, (THAT IS WHAT THEY SAY) MY FAMILY WAS IN THE VAN IN THE DRIVEWAY GETTING READY TO LEAVE SO I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT "NOTHING" WENT THRU THE WINDOW JUST A MAJOR DEFECT OF DODGE. NUMEROUS ISSUES WITH THIS VAN STARTING WHEN VAN HAD 5000 MILES, AIR BAG SENSOR ON, SLIDING DOORS DO NOT WORK PROPERLY, LOUD SOUND FROM ENGINE, TIE RODS NEED REPLACED FOR THIRD TIME, CONTROL ARM BROKE, LOCKS MAKE A WHINY SOUND, CHECK SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT ON TOLD 3 TIMES THAT WE NEEDED NEW SPARK PLUGS . REALLY AT 30,000 MILES. WE CHANGED THEM, LIGHT STILL ON TODAY. AFTER AN INSPECTION OF VAN NOW DEALER SATES THAT THE ALTERNATOR, WATER PUMP, SERPENTINE BELT, EGV VALVE, VALVE GASKET, ALL NEEDS REPLACED AND THE LIGHT ON HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH SPARK PLUGS, GO FIGURE. I HAVE SENT DEALERSHIP AND CHRYSLER LETTERS IN REGARDS TO MY SAFETY CONCERNS. THIS WOULD BE MY FOURTH TIME CALLING CHYRSLER ABOUT MAJOR ISSUES. THEY LACK CUSTOMER SERVICE AND NOTHING EVER DONE. WE PURCHASED NEW AND VAN IS NOW 5 YEARS OLD WITH SAME AND NEW PROBLEMS SINCE 5000 MILES, NOW HAS 77,000. I WILL NOT BE PURCHASING A DODGE VAN AGAIN!!
